ANACpedia is a database composed of bilingual aviation dictionaries in Portuguese, English, Spanish and French and two lists of acronyms, in English and Portuguese. The database has been developed by the Department of People Management/ANAC. ANACpedia Dictionaries bring together aviation terms and acronyms used in Brazil and abroad. We hope ANACpedia helps the understanding of aviation terminology conveyed in texts written in Portuguese, English, Spanish and French.

Some information here provided result from researches carried out by ANAC in partnership with DECEA (the Brazilian Department of Airspace Control).
