"heavy"
Explanation:
Ou "pesado", mas normalmente usa-se "heavy"

Indicação de que o avião é de grande porte. Logo, as velocidades e os tempos de manobra devem ser adaptados ao tamanho do avião. A designação serve de nota de reforço para os controladores actuarem em conformidade.

pesado


Explanation:
A palavra usada em aeronáutica para exprimir a letra H é "Hotel", por isso julgo que não será o caso.

Inclino-me para que tenha a ver com a classificação do avião, mas não sei se já existe um equivalente consagrado em português:

AIRCRAFT CLASSES− For the purposes of Wake
Turbulence Separation Minima, ATC classifies aircraft
as Heavy, Large, and Small as follows:
a. Heavy− Aircraft capable of takeoff weights of
more than 255,000 pounds whether or not they are
operating at this weight during a particular phase of
flight.
b. Large− Aircraft of more than 41,000 pounds,
maximum certificated takeoff weight, up to 255,000
pounds.
c. Small− Aircraft of 41,000 pounds or less
maximum certificated takeoff weight.
