Here is the list: Organizations (9) Infinite Flight Escort Services [Infinite Flight YouTubers] (http://www.infiniteflightyoutubers.weebly.com/) Infinite Flight Pictures Media IFATC Infinite Flight Airport Editing [Infinite Flight Olympics] (http://ifolympics.weebly.com/) [Infinite Flight Commonwe…

Here’s some that may be on peoples names:

IFAE: Infinite Flight Aviation Experts (Or IF Airport editors)
IFFG: Infinite Flight Fan group

List of Abbreviations and Their Meaning

This is a list of (common) aviation abbreviations you might come across in IF or in the community. I started creating it and @Mats_Edvin_Aaro made a huge contribution. I’ve put the abbreviations in alphabetical order. Please let me know which ones are missing and should be added. [abbreviation] = [description] A/C = Aircraft A/P = Airplane or Autopilot A/T = Autothrottle ACAS = Airborne Collision Avoidance System AGL = Above Ground Level AIM = Aeronautical Information Manual AIP = Aer…

Here’s the topic with most of the commonly used abbreviations. And an updated one (but they’re both closed)

List of abbreviations and their meanings - brought back!

Following @Jan’s closed topic, I think this is something which is good for people to know. Below is a list of common abbreviations you will see in forum discussions and elsewhere. If you have anything to add, comment it and I will add it to the list. :) [abbreviation] = [description] A/C = Aircraft A/P = Airplane or Autopilot A/T = Autothrottle ACAS = Airborne Collision Avoidance System AGL = Above Ground Level AIM = Aeronautical Information Manual AIP = Aeronautical Information Public…

IFAF is the one and only Infinite Flight Air Force

IFAE well some people say it is IF Airport Editors but some say it is something called IF Aviation Experts

Then VA ones are similar to the VA name usually so not hard to work out examples include

DLVA - Delta VA (i think)
TFC - Tailwinds Flying Club
IFAF - previously mentioned^^^

I actually think there is a need for a database of these abbreviations as i am left wondering sometimes! Its a thought!

[Dan_77]

Guys, let’s avoid just relisting ones that have been stayed above…

[callum5124]

Yeah sorry! @Dan_77

I am going to work on a database for this guys as i think even the most long time memebers may learn a thing or two from this!

[Kyle.Plane]

You can use the abbreviations from the old database above and just add in the new ones.
