Hi all,

I was flying in a Cessna the other day I was wondering what all of the terms mean. Specifically what do the following mean:

Flight Following
Touch and Go
Class A/B/C/D transition
Most of the things on the ATIS


Thanks in advance!

Here's what I could find:
- Flight following (VFR specific article) (also relevant: IFR flight following, general IFR article)
- Touch-and-go landing
- Airspace class
- ATIS (also relevant: METAR for detailed info)

Be sure to ask if you have more questions. Have a good flight :)
