Automatic Terminal Information Service (ATIS) is the continuous broadcast of information concerning:

• A. Flight plan changes and weather only.
• B. Noncontrol information in selected high-activity terminal areas.
• C. Maintenance schedules only.
• D. Emergency procedures only.

Answer: (B)

ATIS is the continuous broadcast of non-control information in selected high-activity terminal areas. This means pilots receive weather details, the active runway, available approaches, NOTAMs, and other information that affects flight operations, all without directing ATC actions. It helps reduce radio congestion because this information is pre-recorded and updated when significant changes occur. It’s not about flight plan changes, maintenance schedules, or emergency procedures alone, and weather is included as part of the information, not the sole content.
