  • Term used by Air Traffic Controllers requesting the pilot to activate the identifying feature onboard IFF-SIF that flashes on the controller's radar screen, positively identifying the flight. Every aircraft has a different ident code, assigned at the beginning of the flight. Sort of an electronic signature or wave hello.
