Flashcards on this page

This page includes a 12-card interactive flashcard deck. Here’s a taste:

  • jetway (US) / airbridge (UK) — The movable tunnel passengers walk through to get from the terminal building onto the plane.
  • stand / gate — The place where the plane parks so passengers can board and disembark.
  • threshold — The marked beginning of the section of runway that can be used for landing.

Members study all 12 cards — flip, shuffle and star them, and review each one with spaced repetition on the Study dashboard, timed for just before it fades.

This deck is included with a free account. Create a free account
