Plain English Meaning

A small list on the controller's screen that holds aircraft the radar has briefly lost track of, so their information isn't lost while the system waits to pick them up again.

Full Definition

The system 'coasts' a track by continuing to display its last known data for a short period, and 'suspends' it when updates remain missing, moving the tag off the active radar picture and into this side list until contact is reestablished or the track is dropped.

Context Anchor
