  19. Type A Chart

  20. Air Traffic Services • Air traffic service. A generic term meaning variously, flight information service, alerting service, air traffic advisory service, air traffic control service (area control service, approach control service or aerodrome control service). • Air traffic control service. A service provided for the purpose of: a) preventing collisions: 1) between aircraft, and 2) on the manoeuvring area between aircraft and obstructions; b) expediting and maintaining an orderly flow of air traffic. • Level of Service Dependent on amount and type of air traffic and designation of surrounding airspace.

  21. Air Traffic Control • ATC requirescertification as an ATS provider Annex11 • Air traffic control tower provides an aerodrome control service for aircraft on the manoeuvring area and in the local circuit up to2000ft. Approach and area control are normally provided from ACC • ATC Separations Vertical 1000ft Lateral Radar 5NM with 3NM at certain major airports Lateral Procedural angular split depending on navaid and DME distance and/or time • CNS-ATM/PBN Significant enhancement to achieve aircraft operating efficiencies, reduced flight times/track miles

  22. Apron Management Service • Apron management service means a service provided to regulate the activities and the movement of aircraft and vehicles on an apron: • Apron means a defined area on a land aerodrome intended to accommodate aircraft for the purpose of loading or unloading passengers or cargo, refuelling, parking, or maintenance: • Manoeuvring area— (1) means that part of an aerodrome to be used for the take-off and landing of aircraft and for the surface movement of aircraft associated with take-off and landing; but (2) does not include areas set aside for loading, unloading, or maintenance of aircraft: • Movement area means that part of an aerodrome intended to be used for the take-off and landing of aircraft and for the surface movement of aircraft, and includes the manoeuvring area, maintenance areas, and aprons:

  23. Apron Management Service When warranted by the volume of traffic and operating conditions, an appropriate apron management service should be provided on an apron by an aerodrome ATS unit, by another aerodrome operating authority, or by a cooperative combination of these, in order to: a) regulate movement with the objective of preventing collisions between aircraft, and between aircraft and obstacles; b) regulate entry of aircraft into, and coordinate exit of aircraft from, the apron with the aerodrome control tower; and c) ensure safe and expeditious movement of vehicles and appropriate regulation of other activities. NOTE AMS is not an Air Traffic Service

  24. Apron Management Service AMS may be provided by the aerodrome ATS unit, by a unit set up by The airport company, by airline/GSH, or by coordinated control between ATS and the airport company. Coordinated AMS Radio control of aircraft requiring start up or push back is vested with ATC tower and control of vehicles is the responsibility of the airport Company. Instructions to aircraft is given on the understanding that separation between aircraft and vehicles not under radio control is not Included in the instruction. Airport company has effective control of vehicles through licensing Drivers and vehicles, procedures, airside roads etc.

  25. Instrument Flight Procedures Primary and Secondary areas OAS Primary areas 2 sigma (95%) containment Secondary areas 3 sigma (99.7%) containment

  26. Instrument Flight Procedures Categories of Aircraft Aircraft performance has a direct effect on the airspace and visibility required for the various manoeuvres associated with the conduct of instrument approach procedures. The most significant performance factor is aircraft speed. Based on 1.3Vs (stall speed max cert landing weight)

  27. Instrument Approach Procedures

Aeronautical Telecommunications • Requires to comply with Annex 10 to provide telecommunication service – CNS • Communications – VHF A/G voice, HF A/G voice, HF A/G data, VHF A/G data, Satellite A/G data, G/G voice, G/G data (AFTN and ATN) • Navigation – NDB, VOR, DME, ILS, TACAN (MIL), GNSS-GBAS, GNSS-SBAS, GNSS-ABAS • Surveillance – Primary Radar (PSR), Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) Mode A, Mode C, Mode S, ADS-B, ADS-C, Multi-lateration

  29. Aerodrome Emergency Plan • Aerodromes emergency plan (AEP) shall be established commensurate with the aircraft operations. The plan shall contain procedures for periodic testing of the adequacy of the plan • Aerodrome emergency planning is the process of preparing an aerodrome to cope with an emergency occurring at the aerodrome or in its vicinity. The objective of aerodrome emergency planning is to minimize the effects of an emergency, particularly in respect of saving lives and maintaining aircraft operations. The aerodrome emergency plan sets forth the procedures for coordinating the response of different aerodrome agencies (or services) and of those agencies in the surrounding community that could be of assistance in responding to the emergency.

  30. AEP - Content • Types of emergencies. Provide for the coordination of agencies in responding to anticipated emergencies at the aerodrome or in the aerodrome vicinity. Emergencies can be generally categorised into two different groupings depending upon how the plan is structured. There are emergencies that involve aircraft and those that do not. –Full, local standby, • Procedures for prompt response to emergencies. • Guidance to personnel • The role and the responsibility of each agency • EOC – Command Centre • Names, telephone numbers, contact details • Grid map local area

  31. AEP Operator Requirements • Requires Aerodrome operator to coordinate and ensure participation of all relevant parties in developing plan • Maintenance of Plan – Full exercise every 2 years, partial emergency exercise every other year, debrief after every emergency and exercise, • Ensure plan is updated as required

  32. Rescue Fire-Fighting Service Level of Protection(category) dependent on size of aircraft operating at airport. Where number of movements of aircraft of highest category less than 700 in busiest consecutive 3 months allowed to provide 1 category below (up to Nov 09)
