TRAFFIC CONFLICTS
Numerous aircraft operate within the Pacific theater without filing VFR or IFR Flight Plans. Air-
crews operating outside ATC radar coverage may lessen traffic conflict potential by utilizing Radar
Advisory Service from the nearest Radar station.
f. Pilots must immediately notify ATS of any deviation from flight plan beyond the following tol-
erances:
1. estimated time of commencing the ADIZ route segments - plus or minus 5 minutes;
2. over land area - plus or minus 10 miles from track;
3. over oceanic areas - plus or minus 20 miles from track.
NOTE: The 5 minutes expressed above will be used in considering intercept action, but
pilots must report predicted deviations of greater than two (2) minutes.
g. In case of failure of two-way radio communication, the pilot must proceed in accordance with
the normal radio failure procedures.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
Special requirements may be published relative to a particular ADIZ. Flights exempted in accord-
ance with paragraph c. above will not be exempted from the special requirements unless so
specified.
NON-COMPLIANCE
Significant deviations from the requirements for flight in an ADIZ must be reported immediately to
ATS and details and reasons for the deviation must be reported at the first point of landing, for
transmission to the Area Air Defense Commander.
The Ministry of National Defense of the People’s Republic of China is the administrative organ of
the East China Sea ADIZ.
The competent office of the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) responsible for pro-
cessing flight plans is:
Operation Management Center of ATMB
Fax: +86 10 6513 5983
SITA: BJSZGCA
AFTN: ZBBBZGZX
Civil aviation scheduled flights, and any non-scheduled flights including extra scheduled flights,
chartered flights, ferry flights and business flights shall submit flight plan to Air Traffic Control
Department of CAAC.
State flights, VIP chartered flights, and the transport flights of weapon and ammunition operated
by civil aircraft shall submit flight plan to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of People’s Republic of
China.
The flight plan shall be submitted in the format of FPL to the address of Air Traffic Control Depart-
ment: ZBBBZGZX, ZSACZQZX.
Aircraft shall comply with the following procedures while operating within the KADIZ except when
operating is conducted in accordance with procedures designated by the Minister of Defense after
obtaining the permission:
a. Aircraft shall establish two-way air-ground radio communications and monitor continuous
voice communications with an appropriate air traffic control or military unit.
b. Aircraft shall operate Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) transponders and set the SSR
codes directed by air traffic control or military authority concerned.
Aircraft shall give position reports to the Minister of Defense while operating within KADIZ. In
cases where flying is conducted in controlled airspace according to the filed flight plan as speci-
fied in the paragraphs above, position reports contained in items a and b may be omitted.
a. If flying in controlled airspace, ETA at KADIZ boundary point shall be given when a position
report is made at the last reporting point prior to entering the KADIZ.
b. If flying outside controlled airspace, aircraft shall give the ETA at the KADIZ boundary point
of penetration and altitude at least 15 and no more than 30 minutes prior to entering the
KADIZ.
c. Position reports shall be made every 30 minutes while within the KADIZ.
g. In respect of all flights conducted off airways aircraft shall contact ATCC at least 10 minutes
before entering the ADIZ giving the ETA over ADIZ boundary and requesting ADC.
h. Frequencies to be used shall be the normal air/ground communication frequencies.
c. Any non-tactical aircraft that chartered for a special seaward mission is allowed to call
“STAR GAZER” for Control Report Center directly on 121.5 MHz for position when deems
report necessary.
d. Aircraft will be intercepted by the Chinese Air Force interceptors, if:
1. Aircraft do not adhere to the Air Defense Identification Procedures or to the Air Traffic
Control Regulation and Procedures.
2. Aircraft deviate from the current flight plan — fail to pass over a compulsory reporting
point within 5 minutes of the estimated time over that point, deviate 20 NM from the
centerline of the airway; or 2000 feet difference from the assigned altitude; or any other
deviations.
include: G583, B757, R341, G469, A342, G215, R330, R336, R338, and G349 (For west-
bound use only).
e. NOPAC REROUTES
Aircraft cannot always be accommodated on their flight planned NOPAC route. In an effort to
reduce both coordination time and coordination errors, JCAB (Fukuoka ATMC) and FAA
(Anchorage ARTCC) have agreed on a common procedure to accommodate most reroutes.
Aircraft rerouted from one NOPAC ATC route to another NOPAC ATC route will be given
short range clearances into the adjoining FIR's RADAR coverage airspace. The receiving
ATC facility will then issue further routing to the aircraft prior to the aircraft reaching the
clearance limit. Example 1: aircraft ABC101 is routed via R220 to RJTT but can not be
accommodated on R220. The aircraft may be re-cleared as follows: “ABC101 cleared to
OATIS via R580, expect further clearance from ATMC after OMOTO.” Example 2: aircraft
ABC102 is routed via A590 to PAFA but can not be accommodated on A590. The aircraft
may be re-cleared as follows: “ABC102 cleared to SYA via R591, expect further routing from
Anchorage ARTCC after AKISU.”
4. Coordinates for each 5° or 10° of latitude, or for each 5° or 10° of longitude, depending
on the predominant direction of flight. 10° increments should only be used when the
speed of the aircraft is such that 10° will be traversed within 1 hour 20 minutes.
Operators in the NOPAC Route System are reminded that flight plans must be filed in
accordance with ICAO procedures and formats. This will allow for automatic flight data pro-
cessing at oceanic control centers and oceanic radio stations along the route.
Flights originating outside of Anchorage or Fukuoka regions and entering oceanic airspace
without intermediate stops should submit flight plans as early as possible.
In addition to the normal requirement of addressing the flight plan to all control centers en
route, associated oceanic radio stations should also be addressed. This will provide those
stations with information such as flight identification, SELCAL, aircraft registration, destina-
tion, and ETA, which is necessary to handle the traffic. A properly addressed flight plan, for-
mulated in accordance with ICAO standards, will be processed automatically by oceanic
centers.
When flight planning via transition tracks and/or ATS routes, list the point of entry, followed
by the route designator, and finally the point of exit, e.g., KATCH – B327 – NULUK – R220 –
NANAC.
To minimize flight crew and controller workload, information should be carried for routes
other than the one being flown. This material should include route data, reporting points, fuel
burn, winds aloft, time enroute, etc., for those routes compatible with the direction of flight.
Data for routes R591 and G344 should also be carried regardless of the direction of flight as
they are used for both eastbound and westbound traffic. Carrying this information will avoid
unnecessary delays in the event a route or flight level other than that filed in the original flight
plan is assigned by ATC. Readily available material will facilitate timely crew decisions as to
their preference of alternate routes or altitudes.
b. Preferred Routes
Anchorage ARTCC will periodically issue International NOTAMs specifying the preferential
routes to be flown within the Anchorage FIR. Each NOTAM will individually denote, during
specified time periods, either the westbound or eastbound tracks. Flights filed contrary to
these NOTAMs or preferred routes may expect reroutes, sequencing delays, and/or severe
altitude restrictions for same direction, crossing, or opposite direction traffic.
Aircraft must have RVSM and RNP 10 approval from the appropriate State authority to oper-
ate in the NOPAC between FL290 and FL410 inclusive.
WESTBOUND

a. Except as indicated below, ATS will assign a temporary discrete code for each flight sector
for aircraft operating in controlled airspace, and for aircraft participating in Surveillance Infor-
mation Service (SIS).
b. Unless advised otherwise by ATC, pilots of Mode 3A or Mode S transponder equipped air-
craft operating in Australian airspace must activate their transponders, and where a Mode C
capability is also available it must be activated simultaneously with Mode 3A.
NOTE: Pilots must ensure that transponders and ADS–B transmitters are activated and the
altitude function is selected as:
a. Primary radar coverage only exists within 50 NM of major airports and the remainder of
the ATS surveillance system relies on SSR transponder and ADS–B transmitter infor-
mation, and
b. TCAS relies on transponder information for its pilot alerting and collision avoidance
functions.
c. When operating in Australian airspace, or on reaching the Australian FIR boundary if
inbound to Australia, pilots of Mode 3A transponder equipped aircraft must squawk the
assigned temporary discrete code for that flight sector, or if not assigned a temporary dis-
crete code, the appropriate non-discrete code from the following listing, unless advised oth-
erwise by ATS:
1. Civil flights in classes “A”, “C” and “D” airspace, or IFR flights in Class “E” airspace—
3000.
2. Civil IFR flights in Class “G” airspace—2000.
3. Civil VFR flights in classes “E” or “G” airspace—1200.
4. Military flights in classes “A”, “C”, “D” or “E” airspace—5000.
5. Military flights in Class “G” airspace—6000.
6. Civil flights not involved in special operations or SAR, operating in Class “G” airspace
in excess of 15 NM offshore—4000.
7. Civil flights engaged in littoral surveillance—7615.
8. Ground testing by aircraft maintenance staff—2100.
9. Flights operating at aerodromes (in lieu of 1., 2., or 3. when assigned by ATC)—0100.
10. RPAS in all classes of airspace and when instructed to enable transponder—7000.
d. Pilots of flights which will require a SIS and/or a clearance into controlled airspace, and for
which a discrete code has already been coordinated, must select that code immediately
prior to making their SIS/clearance request.
e. A pilot must not operate the identification function (SPI) unless requested by ATC.
f. Flights assigned a temporary discrete SSR code by ATS must squawk that code until termi-
nation of the flight sector, unless advised otherwise by ATS. If not assigned a discrete code,
the appropriate generic code must be used.

cific transponder code has been specified by an ATS unit.
VFR
A limited number of transponder codes are available for allocation to VFR aircraft on cross-coun-
try flights. When filing a VFR flight plan via IFIS, the pre-allocated code will be shown in the mes-
sage acknowledging acceptance of the filed flight plan. When filing via FAX or by phone with the
National Briefing Office, no acknowledgment of a pre-allocated code will be made.
Application for permanent codes must be made to the National Briefing Office.
The pilots of all VFR transponder equipped aircraft, whether on flight plan or not, who have been
assigned a discrete aircraft or ATC code, should operate that code at all times, unless otherwise
instructed by ATC, or when an emergency SSR code is required. The pilots of other VFR aircraft
should set the code indicated below.
Secondary Surveillance Radar Code Allocation Plan.
a. For partial failure, every effort will be made to allow the flight to continue with minimum
restrictions to its final destination and thereafter to an appropriate repair base.
b. For complete failure, the flight is likely to experience some restrictions enroute to the initial
destination, and may not be allowed to proceed to subsequent destinations via transponder
mandatory airspace until repairs are made. If repairs are not available at the initial destina-
tion, special approval may be given for the flight to proceed via transponder mandatory air-
space to an appropriate repair base.
A pilot must not operate the IDENT function unless requested by ATC.
A pilot departing from Port Moresby Jackson Intl must leave the transponder selected to
STANDBY until entering the departure runway.
A pilot arriving at Port Moresby Jackson Intl must select STANDBY or OFF as soon as practicable
after turning off the runway.

CPDLC COVERAGE
A system of routes has been established to guide pilots in planning their route of flight to
minimize route changes during the operational phase of flight, and to aid in the efficient
orderly management of air traffic. The routes which follow are designed to serve the needs
of airspace users and to provide for a systematic flow of air traffic in the major terminal
and enroute flight environments. Cooperation by all pilots will result in fewer traffic delays
and will better provide for efficient departure, enroute and arrival air traffic service.
GUAM
Due to traffic congestion within the Oakland CTA/FIR north, south, and west of the airspace
delegated to Guam CERAP (a 250 NM radius of N1332/E14455), preferred routings have been
established for all turbojet aircraft at or above FL280 operating within the Oakland CTA/FIR
north, south, or west of the Guam CTA. The following are the Guam area preferential routings
within the Oakland Oceanic CTA/FIR. Aircraft operators must ensure that these preferential
routes are indicated in Field 15 of the ICAO standard flight plan unless following published UPR
Procedures. The acronym FPRD means flight plan route to destination.
Aircraft within the Oakland CTA/FIR and transiting the Guam CERAP delegated airspace must
flight plan to enter/exit Guam Center airspace on an appropriate ATS route(s) or other establish-
ed compulsory reporting points (e.g., FATUM or JOBSS).
With the exception of aircraft flight planned via Oceania UPR procedures, operators flight plan-
ning at or above FL280 with filed routes other than those described above should expect to be
re-routed to the preferential route. Requests for alternate routes will be considered on a real-time
basis as traffic conditions permit. However, aircraft should file for and be prepared to fly the en-
tire preferential route. Aircraft operating EAST of 150E longitude will not be affected.

Routes B579 and R325
INTRODUCTION
The Australian Organized Track Structure (AUSOTS) has been developed to help provide airlines
with better traffic flows and significantly contribute to airline fuel savings. The AUSOTS will be cre-
ated and promulgated on a daily basis, considering many variables including wind conditions, as
a series of Track Definition Messages (TDM) for the most efficient track between specific interna-
tional gates and Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. The future will bring further development of
the AUSOTS, based on collaboration with participating airlines.
AUSOTS GUIDELINES
GENERAL INFORMATION
AUSOTS will be available for all aircraft meeting the minimum requirement of RNP10 or RNP4.
Any aircraft which loses its RNP capability enroute, but is still able to navigate on the Flex Tracks
may continue to do so. Aircraft unable to continue navigating on the Flex Tracks will be re-cleared
by ATC via the fixed route structure.
On the occasions when the daily optimum route corresponds completely with a published route,
the Trackmaster will still publish these details as a Track Definition Message (TDM) to avoid the
risk of confusion over possible lost TDMs.
GEOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARY
AUSOTS tracks may be established within the Melbourne and Brisbane FIRs. Outside the YBBB
and YMMM FIRs, aircraft operators will flight plan as required by the specific Air Navigation Serv-
ice Provider (ANSP).
Questions regarding published AUSOTS tracks should be directed to the Melbourne Center Oper-
ations Manager at the Melbourne Air Traffic Service Center (ATSC) on +61-3-9235-7420.

2. for Flex Tracks generated once a day:
a number from 1 to 7 (representing the day of the week that the Flex Track is created
starting with Monday – 1, Tuesday – 2, etc).
EXAMPLE 1: SY2P would represent a second Flex Track created between Sydney and
the Singapore area and that it was created from the 1800 wind updates. This track is
probably for Sydney to Bangkok operations as track 1 (SY1P) would be based on Sin-
gapore.
EXAMPLE 2: XB11 would represent a once-a-day Flex Track created between The
Middle East and Brisbane and that it was created on a Monday.
EXAMPLE 3: AP16 would represent a once-a-day Flex Track created between Auck-
land and Perth and that it was created on a Saturday.
While the validity periods are track specific, the majority will conform to standard times. Airservi-
ces Australia expects that the validity period for the portion of AUSOTS containing the Singapore
area to Australia tracks will be 1300 UTC to 0000 UTC and 0000 UTC to 1300 UTC. Irrespective
of any concept of standard times, the official validity period will be the times as specified on the
TDM.
Where possible, aircraft operators will be advised of intended changes to standard times.

ATC PROCEDURES
ATC will apply existing separation standards as utilized on the fixed route structure.
ATC will apply the current priority structure with the inclusion that when conflictions occur
between aircraft on the AUSOTS and those that were able to, but elected not to, utilize the Flex
Tracks, ATC will apply separation favoring the aircraft on the Flex Track.
The TDM identifier will NOT be used as part of an ATC clearance or in radio transmissions in gen-
eral.
POSITION REPORTING
Position reports must be made in accordance with ICAO Doc 7030 procedures. Within the Flex
Track airspace, position reports must be made using geographical coordinates or named fixes as
specified in the AUSOTS TDM.

SYSTEM REVIEW
Review of ATC fixed requirements and airline agreed parameters will be addressed as follows:
a. Stakeholder Significant Safety Issues – immediately reviewed by Trackmaster/Airservices
Australia Operations Manager
b. Changes to Airline Agreed Parameters – quarterly, either via stakeholder meetings called by
the Trackmaster or direct e-mail to the Trackmaster who will initiate discussion with all stake-
holders.
c. Broadening of Capability – subsequent to the Post Implementation Review of initial trial.
CONTINGENCY ARRANGEMENTS
Regardless of circumstances, if the Flex Track is unable to be published at the scheduled time,
then a NOTAM shall be prepared and published that advises airlines to use charted fixed routes.

1.1 The following general rules and procedures apply to enable identification of air traffic enter-
ing any designated Air Defence Identification Zone (ADIZ) under the control of Australia.
1.2 An ADIZ is airspace of defined dimensions within which identification of all aircraft is
required.
1.3 When a flight is intended to operate within an ADIZ, the pilot, unless exempted in accord-
ance with the following paragraph must:
a. lodge a flight plan covering flight within the ADIZ with the appropriate ATS unit at least 60
minutes before entry into the ADIZ;
b. report position to ATS when passing each position reporting point within the ADIZ;
c. report position to ATS at ADIZ boundary with a geographical reference (e.g.; 15 NM east
of...) or, if the departure point is within 100 NM of the ADIZ boundary, report departure;
d. report departure if departing from a point within the ADIZ;
e. maintain a continuous listening watch on the communications frequency of the appropriate
ATS unit or on another frequency as directed until the flight is through the ADIZ;
f. not deliberately deviate from tracks and altitudes filed in the flight plan unless prior ATC
clearance is obtained, or outside controlled airspace, notification is given to the appropriate
ATS unit;
g. activate transponder when within 100 NM of the ADIZ and when operating within the ADIZ.
1.4 The following flights over Australia and its territorial waters are exempted from compliance
with the requirements of the previous paragraph:
a. a flight originating within an ADIZ which maintains a steady outbound track;
b. a flight which remains within 10 NM of the point of departure;
c. aircraft performing published approach, holding or recovery procedures; and
d. a flight conducted in accordance with special procedures arranged with the Area Air Defence
Commander.
1.5 Flight plans lodged in accordance with paragraph 1.3 must include details of:
a. tracks and altitudes to be flown while operating in the ADIZ;
b. estimated elapsed times for each route segment in the ADIZ, including the segment in which
the ADIZ boundary is crossed;
c. position reporting points, departure and landing points; and
d. estimated time at the commencing point of the first route segment for which details are

INTRODUCTION
Airborne and ground check points consist of certified radials that should be received at specific
points on the airport surface or over specific landmarks while airborne in the immediate vicinity of
the airport.
Should an error in excess of plus or minus 4 degrees be indicated through use of a ground check,
or plus or minus 6 degrees using the airborne check, IFR flight shall not be attempted without first
correcting the source of the error.
CAUTION: No correction other than the correction card figures supplied by the manufac-
turer should be applied in making these VOR receiver checks.
EXPLANATION OF LISTINGS
The following information is provided.
– Type of check, Ground (G) or Airborne (A).
– For VOR check points – VOR frequency and identifier. Bearing in degrees magnetic outbound
from the VOR; location of the check point (distances are in nautical miles); altitude (in feet
MSL).
1 GENERAL
1.1 RADIO AIDS TO NAVIGATION
1.1.1 The following types of radio aids to navigation operate within Australian FIRs:
a. MF Non-Directional Beacon (NDB);
b. VHF Omni-Directional Radio Range (VOR);
c. Distance Measuring Equipment (DME);
d. Instrument Landing System (ILS);
e. Primary Surveillance Radar (PSR);
f. Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR);
g. Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo etc;
h. GBAS Landing System (GLS) – (Polarization GBAS/H);
i. Tactical Air Navigation System (TACAN) (military locations);
j. Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Contract (ADS-C) (FANS-1/A); and
k. Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) (1090 MHz Extended Squitter).
1.2 IDENTIFICATION
1.2.1 Radio navigation aids serving the same location normally radiate the same identification
codes. Further, at ILS/localizer installations, the normal identification is preceded by the letter “I”;
and at private non-accredited NDBs, a four letter identifier is radiated, the first letter being “X”.
1.2.2 A GBAS station is identified by the relevant Airport’s 4 letter ICAO code where the GBAS
is installed (e.g. YSSY). Approaches provided from the GBAS station are identified by the Refer-
ence Path ID field in the Final Approach Segment (FAS) data blocks. The Reference Path ID is
unique to the approach to be used and published on the Approach Plate for the runway. Each
Reference Path ID commences with the letter “G”.
2 NON-DIRECTIONAL BEACONS
Operate in the frequency band 190 kHz – 1750 kHz. Due to the frequency range available within
Australia, a number of beacons share the same frequency. Where this occurs, the beacons are
widely spaced geographically.
2.2 Some NDBs have been sited in mountainous country and reflections of the signal can cause
bearing fluctuations which may occasionally exceed 10°. Since these fluctuations may tend to
obscure the “over the top” indications, other aids should be used as a check. The rated coverage
of these NDBs is generally reduced to no more than 30 NM.
6.1.3 A GLS currently supports precision approach operations with minima as low as CAT I, but
with the future potential for supporting CAT II and III operations. A GLS consists of a GBAS
ground station located on or in the vicinity of one or more airports and an aircraft subsystem. The
GBAS provides data and corrections for the GNSS ranging signals over a digital VHF data broad-
cast to the aircraft subsystem. The aircraft subsystem translates the position signal into flight
guidance similar to that provided for an ILS.
ILS CAUTION:
1. False courses may exist or course reversals may occur outside the sector 35° (or 20° at cer-
tain airports) either side of an ILS localizer course.
2. Back beam radiation of an ILS LOC can be received and displayed on aircraft navigation
instrumentation. Pilots should be alert to this possibility at locations providing ILS/LOC
approaches on reciprocal runways.
3. A severe and sudden pitch-up upset can occur in cases when the aircraft:
a. intercepts an ILS glidepath from above; or
b. during an ILS approach, deviates significantly above the normal glidepath angle.
Caution should be exercised in such situations particularly for autopilot coupled approaches.
See AIC 14/14 (not published herein).
6.2 FAILURES
6.2.1 NDB. In the event of failure of an associated NDB, aircraft must join the ILS outside the
outer marker as directed by NOTAM or ATC.
6.2.2 Glide path. For ILS operations where the glide path fails, only the localizer procedure is
available.
6.2.3 Markers. Where marker beacons are not available, aircraft may use the ILS if the alter-
nate fixes nominated on the IAL chart or by NOTAM are used for altimeter checks.
6.2.4 GBAS. If GBAS fails, GLS approaches are not available.
2 DOPPLER RADAR
2.1 Doppler Radar is a semiautomatic self-contained dead reckoning navigation system (radar
sensor plus computer) which is not continuously dependent on information derived from ground
based or external aids. The system employs radar signals to detect and measure ground speed
and drift angle, using the aircraft compass system as its directional reference.
2.2 Doppler is less accurate than INS however, and the use of an external reference is required
for periodic updates if acceptable position accuracy is to be achieved on long range flights.
ated Operations Specifications relevant to the airplane type, issued in conjunction with the Certifi-
cate.
8.2 This provision for airplanes is outlined in Annex 6 Part I, Chapter 6, para 6.1.2.
8.3 The provision for helicopters is outlined in Annex 6 Part III, Section II, Chapter 4, para 4.1.2.

DIRECTION FINDING PROCEDURES
and then repeating its call sign, unless some other period has been specified by the direction-find-
ing station.
1.5.2 In radiotelephony, an aircraft station which requests a bearing shall end the transmission
by repeating its call sign. If the transmission has been too short for the direction-finding station to
obtain a bearing, the aircraft shall give a longer transmission for two periods of approximately ten
seconds, or alternatively provide such other signals as may be requested by the direction-finding
station.
NOTE: Certain types of VHF/DF stations require the provision of a modulated signal (voice trans-
mission) in order to take a bearing.
1.6 When a direction-finding station is not satisfied with its observation, it shall request the air-
craft, station to repeat the transmission.
1.7 When a heading or bearing has been requested, the direction-finding station shall advise the
aircraft station in the following form:
a. the appropriate phrase or Q signal;
b. bearing or heading in degrees in relation to the direction-finding station, sent as three fig-
ures;
c. class of bearing (except in QDL procedure);
d. time of observation, if necessary (except in QDL procedure).
1.8 When a position has been requested, the direction-finding control station, after plotting all
simultaneous observations, shall determine the observed position of the aircraft and shall advise
the aircraft station in the following form:
a. the appropriate phrase or Q signal;
b. the position;
c. class of position;
d. time of observation.
1.9 As soon as the aircraft station has received the bearing, heading or position, it shall repeat
back the message for confirmation, or correction, except in QDL procedure.
1.10 When positions are given by bearing or heading and distance from a known point other
than the station making the report, the reference point shall be an airport, prominent town or geo-
graphic feature. An airport shall be given in preference to other places. When a large city or town
is used as a reference place, the bearing or heading, and the distance given shall be measured
from its center.
1.11 When the position is expressed in latitude and longitude, groups of figures for degrees and
minutes shall be used followed by the letter N or S for latitude and the letter E or W for longitude,
respectively. In radiotelephony the words NORTH, SOUTH, EAST or WEST shall be used.
1.12 According to the estimate by the direction-finding station of the accuracy of the observa-
tions, bearings and positions shall be classified as follows:
RADIO DATA - AUSTRALIA 476
AUSTRALIA
DIRECTION FINDING PROCEDURES
a. Bearings:
Class A — Accurate within plus or minus 2 degrees.
Class B — Accurate within plus or minus 5 degrees.
Class C — Accurate within plus or minus 10 degrees.
Class D — Accuracy less than Class C.
b. Positions:
Class A — Accurate within 9.3 km (5 NM);
Class B — Accurate within 37 km (20 NM);
Class C — Accurate within 92 km (50 NM);
Class D — Accurate less than Class C.
1.13 Direction-finding stations shall have authority to refuse to give bearings, headings or posi-
tions when conditions are unsatisfactory or when bearings do not fall within the calibrated limits of
the station, stating the reason at the time of refusal.
1.14 An aircraft station requiring a series of bearings or headings, shall call the direction-finding
station concerned, on the appropriate frequency, and request the service by the signal QDL fol-
lowed by other appropriate Q signals, except that when the series has commenced, the call signs
of the stations may be omitted if no confusion is likely to arise.
NOTE: Certain MF and HF direction-finding stations are maintained for emergency and distress
use only. The use of these stations, the hours of service, the call sign, location and frequencies of
communication stations, and certain exceptions to the above procedure are shown in pertinent
publications.

1 SIGMET information is prepared by the Meteorological Watch Office whenever any of the fol-
lowing phenomena are occurring or are expected to occur within the Hong Kong FIR: Active
thunderstorms, severe line squall, severe turbulence, marked mountain waves, tropical cyclone,
heavy hail, severe icing, widespread sandstorm/duststorm (unlikely to be used). Tropical cyclo-
nes will be mentioned whenever they are centered within the area 10N to 30N, 105E to 125E
even though this area extends beyond the Hong Kong FIR. The requirement to issue SIGMET
information regarding active thunderstorms refers to the occurrence or expected occurrence of
an area of widespread cumulonimbus clouds (Cb) or Cb along a line with little or no space be-
tween individual clouds, or to Cb embedded in cloud layers or concealed by haze. It does not
refer to isolated or scattered Cb not embedded in cloud layers or concealed by haze.
2 In VHHH MET Reports and Forecasts, wind information refers to the SE anemometer and the
visibility refers to that observed from the Meteorological Office on the 4th floor of the Airport Ter-
minal Building.
3 All reports are the latest available. However, if the latest available report would be more than
two hours old at broadcast time, it is not transmitted.

Australian definitions and abbreviations applicable to this section which are not published
or differ from those published in INTRODUCTION — Chart Glossary. See also Definitions
and Abbreviations sections in the Air Traffic Control, Emergency and Terminal chapters of
this manual.
1 DEFINITIONS
AIRPORT METEOROLOGICAL MINIMA (CEILING AND VISIBILITY MINIMA) — The minimum
heights of cloud base (ceiling) and minimum values of visibility which are prescribed in pursuance
of CASR Part 91 for the purpose of determining the useability of an airport either for takeoff or
landing.
AIR-REPORT (AIREP) — A report from an aircraft in flight prepared in conformity with the
requirements for position and operational and/or meteorological reporting.
AREA QNH — A forecast altimeter setting which is representative of the QNH of any location
within a particular area.
AUTOMATIC ENROUTE INFORMATION SERVICE (AERIS) — The provision of operational
information enroute by means of continuous and repetitive broadcasts.
AUTOMATIC TERMINAL INFORMATION SERVICE (ATIS) — The provision of current, routine
information to arriving and departing aircraft by means of continuous and repetitive broadcasts
during the hours when the unit responsible for the service is in operation.
BRIEFING — The act of giving in advance specific preflight instructions or information to an air-
crew.
CONTAMINATED RUNWAY — A runway that has more than 25% of the runway surface area
within the required length and width being used covered by:
a. water, or slush, more than 3mm deep; or
b. loose snow more than 20mm deep; or
c. compacted snow or ice, including wet ice.
NOTE: A contaminated runway report should identify the type of contaminant using the relevant
runway surface condition descriptor (most commonly ‘standing water’ in Australia), and if possible
and relevant – the extent of contamination. ‘CONTAMINATED RUNWAY’ is not normally used in
radiotelephony.
DRY RUNWAY — A runway that is free of visible moisture and not contaminated within the area
intended to be used.
FLIGHT VISIBILITY — The visibility forward from the cockpit of an aircraft in flight.
FORECAST — A statement of expected meteorological conditions for a specified period, and for
a specified area or portion of airspace.
HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS — Meteorological conditions which may endanger aircraft or
adversely affect their safe operation, particularly those phenomena associated with volcanic ash
cloud and thunderstorms – icing, hail and turbulence.
METEOROLOGY DATA - PACIFIC 591
AUSTRALIA
DEFINITIONS AND ABBREVIATIONS
METBRIEF (Automated Meteorological Telephone Briefing) — Self help system which deliv-
ers meteorological information on the telephone using a computer generated voice, in response to
a tone generated telephone request.
METEOROLOGICAL INFORMATION — Meteorological report, analysis, forecast, and any other
statement relating to existing or expected meteorological conditions.
METEOROLOGICAL OFFICE — An office designated to provide meteorological service for air
navigation.
METEOROLOGICAL WARNING — A statement or meteorological report of the occurrence or
expectation of a deterioration or improvement in meteorological conditions or of any meteorologi-
cal phenomenon which may seriously affect the safe operation of aircraft.
NAIPS — The National Aeronautical Information Processing System, which provides briefings
and flight notification functions.
OVERSHOOT SHEAR — A wind shear occurrence which produces an INITIAL effect of over-
shooting the desired approach path and/or increasing airspeed.
RUNWAY SURFACE CONDITION(S) — A description of the condition(s) of the runway surface,
from the following:
a. Dry Runway – See ‘Dry Runway’ definition.
b. Wet Runway – See ‘Wet Runway’ definition.
c. Contaminated Runway – See the definitions for ‘Contaminated Runway’ and ‘Runway Sur-
face Condition Descriptors’.
RUNWAY SURFACE CONDITION DESCRIPTORS — One of the following elements on the sur-
face of the runway:
a. Compacted Snow: Snow that has been compacted into a solid mass such that airplane
tires, at operating pressures and loadings, will run on the surface without significant further
compaction or rutting of the surface.
b. Dry Snow: Snow from which a snowball cannot readily be made.
c. Frost: Frost consists of ice crystals formed from airborne moisture on a surface whose tem-
perature is below freezing. Frost differs from ice in that the frost crystals grow independently
and therefore have a more granular texture.
NOTE: Under certain conditions frost can cause the surface to become very slippery and it is
then reported appropriately as reduced braking action.
d. Ice: Water that has frozen or compacted snow that has transitioned into ice, in cold and dry
conditions.
e. Slush: Snow that is so water-saturated that water will drain from it when a handful is picked
up or will splatter if stepped on forcefully.
f. Standing Water: Water of depth greater than 3mm.
METEOROLOGY DATA - PACIFIC 592
AUSTRALIA
DEFINITIONS AND ABBREVIATIONS
NOTE: This is the most likely runway contaminant to be experienced in Australia. Running
water of depth greater than 3mm is reported as standing water.
g. Wet Ice: Ice with water on top of it or ice that is melting.
h. Wet Snow: Snow that contains enough water content to be able to make a well-compacted,
solid snowball, but water will not squeeze out.
SIGNIFICANT WEATHER — Any weather phenomenon which might affect flight visibility or
present a hazard to an aircraft.
SPACE WEATHER CENTER (SWXC) — A center designated to monitor and provide advisory
information on space weather phenomena expected to affect high-frequency radio communica-
tions, communications via satellite, GNSS-based navigation and surveillance systems and/or
pose a radiation risk to aircraft occupants.
NOTE: A space weather center is designated as global and/or regional.
TAF3 — An airport forecast (TAF) routinely issued every 3 hours.
UNDERSHOOT SHEAR — A wind shear occurrence which produces an INITIAL effect of under-
shooting the desired approach path and/or decreasing airspeed.
WET RUNWAY — A runway that:
a. is covered by surface water not more than 3mm deep; or
b. is covered by slush or loose snow equivalent to surface water not more than 3mm deep; or
c. has sufficient moisture on the surface to cause it to appear reflective, but without significant
areas of standing water.
NOTE: Wet Runway now covers the previous Australian description – ‘Damp'.

6.1 POSITION REPORTS, AIREP SPECIAL, AND VOLCANIC ASH
REPORTS
6.1.1 Position reports
Refer to FORM 1: ROUTINE POSITION AND AIREP SPECIAL REPORTS.
Section 1 is obligatory.
Section 2 must be added only when requested by the operator or deemed necessary by the pilot-
in-command.
In the enroute phase, section 3 (other than braking action) should be added:
a. by AMDAR equipped aircraft only — at designated compulsory MET reporting points; and
b. when requested by ATC or MET.
At a controlled airport, section 3 (braking action) should be reported when encountered runway
braking action is not as good as reported.
6.1.2 AIREP Special
To be made whenever any of the phenomena listed under item 9 are observed or encountered.
Items 1-4 and the appropriate phenomena specified in item 9 are the minimum required.
6.1.3 Detailed Reporting Instructions for Selected Items
Item 1: Use aircraft callsign as per flight plan or as requested by ATC.
METEOROLOGY DATA - PACIFIC 624
AUSTRALIA
METEOROLOGY REPORTS AND ADVISORIES
Item 3: Time must be the actual time of the aircraft at the position, not the time of the message.
Time shall be expressed in hours and minutes UTC.
Item 4: Aircraft on a block level, or climb, or descent clearance are to report actual flight level or
altitude at the position plus level climbing/descending to.
Item 5: ‘Next position’ shall only be a compulsory reporting point or waypoint, unless ATC
requests an estimate for a different place. Time shall be expressed in hours and minutes UTC.
Item 6: ‘Ensuing significant point’ shall be the next compulsory or non-compulsory reporting point
or waypoint after the ‘Next position’. This item is only required if requested or necessary to con-
firm route to be followed.
Item 9:
– Turbulence: The following specifications apply:
• Moderate: Changes to accelerometer readings of between 0.5g and 1.0g at the aircraft's
center of gravity. Moderate changes to aircraft attitude and/or altitude may occur but aircraft
remains under positive control. Usually small changes in airspeed. Difficulty in walking.
Loose objects move about.
• Severe: Changes to accelerometer readings greater than 1.0g at the aircraft's center of grav-
ity. Abrupt changes to aircraft attitude and/or altitude may occur; aircraft may be out of con-
trol for short periods. Usually large changes of airspeed. Loose objects tossed about.
– Icing: The following specifications apply:
• Moderate: Conditions in which a change of heading and/or altitude may be considered desir-
able.
• Severe: Conditions in which immediate change of heading and/or altitude is considered
essential.
– MOUNTAINWAVE SEVERE means conditions in which the downdraft is 600 ft/min or more
and/or severe turbulence is encountered.
– Thunderstorms: Only report those thunderstorms which are:
• obscured in haze; or
• embedded in cloud; or
• widespread; or
• forming a squall-line.
– Pre-eruption volcanic activity: In an AIREP, this means unusual and/or increasing volcanic
activity which could presage a volcanic eruption.
NOTE: In case of volcanic ash cloud, pre-eruption volcanic activity or volcanic eruption, a post-
flight report shall also be made on the special air-report of volcanic activity form (Model VAR - see
example in FORM 2: VOLCANIC ACTIVITY FORM (MODEL VAR)).
– Braking action: The following specifications apply:
METEOROLOGY DATA - PACIFIC 625
AUSTRALIA
METEOROLOGY REPORTS AND ADVISORIES
• GOOD — Braking deceleration is normal for the wheel braking effort applied AND directional
control is normal.
• GOOD TO MEDIUM — Braking deceleration OR directional control is between Good and
Medium.
• MEDIUM — Braking deceleration is noticeably reduced for the wheel braking effort applied
OR directional control is noticeably reduced.
• MEDIUM TO POOR — Braking deceleration OR directional control is between Medium and
Poor.
• POOR — Braking deceleration is significantly reduced for the wheel braking effort applied
OR directional control is significantly reduced.
• LESS THAN POOR — Braking deceleration is minimal to non-existent for the wheel braking
effort applied OR directional control is uncertain.
6.1.4 Volcanic Ash Reports
Refer to FORM 2: VOLCANIC ACTIVITY FORM (MODEL VAR).
AIREP are critically important for assessing the hazards of volcanic ash cloud to aircraft opera-
tions. Information recorded on the volcanic activity reporting form (Model VAR) is not for transmis-
sion by RTF but, on arrival at an airport, is to be delivered without delay by the operator or a flight
crew member to the airport meteorological office. If such an office is not easily accessible, the
completed form shall be delivered in accordance with local arrangements made between the
meteorological and ATS authorities and the operator.
7.4.1.3 As mentioned earlier, the ATC at controlled airports will relay information received from
the airport operator about runway surface conditions including the extent to which the runway is
contaminated. This relay method is more likely to provide timely information than a SNOWTAM.
7.4.1.4 In the rare event that a runway is flooded and has extensive standing water, it is likely
that the runway will be contaminated with debris to the extent of being unserviceable. In this case,
a NOTAM is likely to be issued to report the runway as closed.
7.4.2 Runway Condition Code (RWYCC)
7.4.2.1 At this point, Australia is not introducing RWYCC for runway condition reports.
7.4.2.2 Instead, ATC will relay only plain language reports about known runway conditions and
reported braking action/lateral control in accordance with the current runway condition terms.
Flight crews in receipt of such information should make their own assessment of the impact of the
report and take appropriate action.
7.4.3 Report of Runway Surface Conditions in Terms of Runway ‘Thirds’
7.4.3.1 Reports about runway surface conditions will not be reported for runway thirds – that is a
report for each third of a runway’s length as measured from the lower runway designation
number.
7.4.3.2 Instead, runway surface is reported in terms of a single assessment covering the entire
runway.

1 SIGMET information is prepared by the Meteorological Watch Office whenever any of the fol-
lowing phenomena are occurring or are expected to occur within the Hong Kong FIR: Active
thunderstorms, severe line squall, severe turbulence, marked mountain waves, tropical cyclone,
heavy hail, severe icing, widespread sandstorm/duststorm (unlikely to be used). Tropical cyclo-
nes will be mentioned whenever they are centered within the area 10N to 30N, 105E to 125E
even though this area extends beyond the Hong Kong FIR. The requirement to issue SIGMET
information regarding active thunderstorms refers to the occurrence or expected occurrence of
an area of widespread cumulonimbus clouds (Cb) or Cb along a line with little or no space be-
tween individual clouds, or to Cb embedded in cloud layers or concealed by haze. It does not
refer to isolated or scattered Cb not embedded in cloud layers or concealed by haze.
2 In VHHH MET Reports and Forecasts, wind information refers to the SE anemometer and the
visibility refers to that observed from the Meteorological Office on the 4th floor of the Airport Ter-
minal Building.
3 All reports are the latest available. However, if the latest available report would be more than
two hours old at broadcast time, it is not transmitted.

A runway is wet when there is any visible dampness or water that is up to and including 3mm in
depth. When describing a wet surface, include the percentage.
If all three thirds are identical in percentage, depth (when required) and type of contaminant, it is
shown in the NOTAM once.
EXAMPLE: RWY 09 OPERATIONAL BUT CTN ADZ DUE AFCON 2/2/2 STANDING WATER
Taxiways and Aprons. The condition includes depth and type of contaminant.
NOTE: Free-form is an acceptable means of entering AFCONs for TWY and APRONs.
– Braking Action (BA). (APRONs, TWYs and Non-Paved RWYs). Report braking action on move-
ment areas: as good, good to medium; medium; medium to poor; or poor, as received from air-
side operations.
The worst runway braking action is shown by contaminant type and RCR.
NIL BRAKING
Reporting of a “NIL” braking condition is not permissible by Civil Aviation Authority of Fiji or for
international airports in Fiji. A “NIL” braking condition at these airports must be mitigated by clo-
sure of the affected surface.
• Paved surfaced runways cannot have a stand-alone BA NOTAM.
• Non-Paved surfaced runways can have BA, but as a stand-alone NOTAM.
• TWY/Apron can have BA as stand-alone or appended to field condition NOTAM.

Measurement of Units
Distances used in navigation (generally in excess of 2 Nautical miles and tenths1
NM)
Short distances Meters
Altitudes, elevations and heights Feet
Horizontal speed, including wind speed Knots
Vertical speed Feet per minute
Wind direction for runway operations Degrees magnetic
Wind direction, except for runway operations Degrees true
Visibility, including runway visual range Kilometers or meters
Altimeter setting Hectopascals
Temperature Degrees Celsius
Weight (Mass) Metric Tons or kilograms
Time Hours and minutes
1 Miles must be read as meaning nautical miles unless otherwise stated. The word "nautical"
may be omitted from air-ground communications.
An aircraft which is temporarily unable to use these units shall advise and request the ground sta-
tion to transmit in units usable by the aircraft.

TIME SYSTEM
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is used for civil aviation.
TABLES AND CODES - AUSTRALIA 732
AUSTRALIA
Date and time is indicated in a combination of the date and time in a single six figure group. How-
ever, a 10 figure group comprising the year, month, date, hours and minutes is used for NOTAM
and AIP supplements. This is reduced to an eight figure group (nil year) for SPFIB.
LOCAL TIME
Local time in Australia falls into three separate zones:
enter the “Conversion of Arc to Time” table at longitude 144° (9 hours 36 minutes). Add the incre-
ment corresponding to 46 minutes in the right hand column;
= 3' 04" + 0936 = 0939.
Subtract this from the LMT found; 1919 -0939 = 0940 UTC. To find EST add 10 hours to UTC =
1940 EST.
Users of these graphs should note that the parameters used in compiling the Time of First Light/
Last Light Graphs do not include the nature of the terrain surrounding a location, or the presence
of other than a cloudless sky and unlimited visibility at that location.
Consequently, the presence of cloud cover, poor visibility or high terrain to the west of an airport
will result in last light occurring at a time earlier than that extracted from the appropriate graph.
Allowance should be made for these factors when planning a flight having an ETA near the time
of last light.
NAIPS automatically computes first light and last light. This information can be provided through
pilot access, as part of a telephone briefing, or from FLIGHTWATCH.
Sunrise, sunset and civil twilight times (first and last light) can also be obtained from
www.ga.gov.au/geodesy/astro/sunrise.jsp.

7 REGULATION OF FLIGHT
7.1 ASSESSMENT OF PRIORITIES
7.1.1 Subject to the duty to facilitate and maintain the safe, orderly and expeditious flow of air
traffic, ATC will apply priorities in the following order:
a. An aircraft in an emergency, including being subjected to unlawful interference, will be given
priority in all circumstances.
b. A multi-engined aircraft which has suffered the loss of an engine and has not been subject to
a SAR phase, or has not been considered under the provision of paragraph a. above, shall
be granted priority for landing.
c. An aircraft which has suffered radio communications failure will be granted priority for land-
ing.
d. An aircraft participating in a Search and Rescue (SAR), Medical (MEDEVAC), or Fire and
Flood Relief (FFR) flights shall be granted priority as necessary.
e. An aircraft operating under police call sign “POLAIR RED” or “FEDPOL RED” engaged in
operations where life is at risk.
f. An aircraft engaged in the personal transport of Heads of State or of Government, or other
selected dignitaries on official visits to Australia, or the personal transport of the Governor-
General or the Prime Minister.
g. State aircraft special requirements flights where clearance has been prearranged.
7.2 Subject to the priorities of paragraph 7.1, an aircraft first able to use the maneuvering area
or desired airspace in the normal course of its operations will be given priority except:
a. An aircraft landing or taking off will be given priority over taxiing aircraft;
b. A landing aircraft will have priority over a departing aircraft if the latter cannot take off with
prescribed separation standards;
c. For flights in Class C terminal control areas associated with Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and
Sydney, ATC will apply priorities in the following order:
1. with equal priority, flights compliant with their ATFM requirements, flights exempt from
ATFM measures and Medical Aircraft (HOSP) operations;
2. flights not compliant with their ATFM requirements; and
3. all other aircraft.
NOTE: Further information about ATFM procedures at Australian airports is available at ATC
— FLIGHT PLANNING — Air Traffic Flow Management.
d. For flights in other Class C terminal control areas, ATC will apply priorities in the following
order:
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 787
AUSTRALIA
AIR TRAFFIC RULES AND SERVICES
1. with equal priority flights with a Calculated Off Blocks Time (COBT), regular public
transport operations, State aircraft (other than training flights) and Medical Aircraft
(HOSP) operations; and
2. all other aircraft.
e. RVSM-approved aircraft will be given priority for level requests between FL290 and FL410
inclusive over aircraft not RVSM-approved;
f. Within ATS surveillance system coverage, identified aircraft may be given priority over non-
identified aircraft;
g. Inside military Restricted Areas and in the terminal area or control zone surrounding a mili-
tary airport, priorities will be determined by the controlling authority published in DAH. Military
airports do not include Darwin or Townsville;
h. For training flights:
1. training flights operating in the traffic pattern in general use will be given priority over
other training flights desiring to operate in conflicting patterns for training purposes; and
2. when a training instrument approach is approved, priority will be given to that aircraft
from the time it commences its final approach until the approach is completed.
8.7.4 Pilots wishing to receive a SIS must be in direct VHF communications with ATC and
equipped with a serviceable SSR transponder or ADS-B transmitter. The pilot must maintain a
continuous listening watch with ATC, advise ATC prior to any changes to track or level and advise
prior to leaving the frequency.
8.7.5 SIS may be terminated at any time by the controller, or by pilot advice.
9 ALERTING SERVICE
9.1 An Alerting Service will be provided:
a. for all aircraft provided with ATC service;
b. in so far as practicable, to all other aircraft having filed a flight plan or otherwise known to the
air traffic services; and
c. to any aircraft known or believed to be the subject of unlawful interference.
11.2 FREQUENCY
11.2.1 Aircraft must maintain a listening watch on the appropriate TIBA frequency. Where VHF
is used for air-ground communications with ATS and an aircraft has two serviceable VHF sets,
one must be tuned to the appropriate ATS frequency and the other to the TIBA frequency.

1 CONTROLLED AIRSPACE
1.1 GENERAL
1.1.1 Controlled airspace is defined as “airspace of defined dimensions within which air traffic
control services are provided to IFR flights and to VFR flights in accordance with the airspace
classification”.
1.1.2 Controlled airspace is a generic term which, in Australia, covers ATS airspace classes A,
C, D and E.
Controlled airspace is established generally on the basis of the kinds of operations and considera-
tions of flight procedures used. Such airspace does not necessarily cover routes to alternate air-
ports.
1.1.4 Controlled airspace within the Brisbane and Melbourne FIRs is generally established as
follows:
CLASS OF
APPLICATION
AIRSPACE
– within radar coverage - lower limit above FL180 and upper limit FL600;
– outside radar coverage - lower limit FL245 and upper limit FL600; and
Class A
– an area extending from 90 NM south of Melbourne to Launceston and Ho-
bart, lower limit of FL180 and upper limit FL600.
– within radar coverage south of Sydney, lower limit FL125 and upper limit
FL180 under Class A airspace;
Class C – in the control area steps associated with controlled airports, excluding control
area steps classified as Class D airspace; and
– in control zones of defined dimensions.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 795
AUSTRALIA
AIRSPACE ORGANIZATION
CLASS OF

limit 4500 ft.
– within radar coverage:
• south of Sydney, lower limit 8500 ft and upper limit FL125 under Class C
airspace;
• north of Sydney, lower limit 8500 ft and upper limit FL125.
– in the vicinity of Williamtown: coincident with the lateral limits of R578A-E
above A045 — when R578 is not active;
– continental Australia, lower limit FL125 and upper limit FL245 under Class A
airspace;
– in the control area steps associated with Class D controlled airports excluding
Class E Class D or C airspace:
• Karratha Class E lower limit 5500 ft to upper limit FL125;
• Broome Class E lower limit 1200 ft AGL to upper limit FL125;
• Avalon Class E lower limit 700 ft AGL to upper limit 4500 ft;
• Mackay Class E lower limit 700 ft AGL to upper limit 4500 ft;
• Rockhampton Class E lower limit 700 ft AGL to upper limit 4500 ft.
– in the control area steps associated with Class C controlled airports excluding
Class C airspace:
• Perth Class E lower limit 8500 ft to upper limit FL125.
1.1.5 Operations in control areas and zones must be conducted in accordance with the pub-
lished procedures and requirements for that specific airspace and air traffic clearances. Special
procedures may also be specified for an airport within a control zone.
1.1.6 The extent of controlled airspace is depicted on Enroute/Area charts and may be promul-
gated by NOTAM or AIP Supplements.
1.1.7 When ATS airspaces adjoin vertically (one above the other), flights at the common level
must comply with the requirements of, and will be given services applicable to, the less restrictive
class of airspace. In applying these criteria, Class C airspace is considered less restrictive than
Class A airspace; Class D airspace is considered less restrictive than Class C airspace, etc.
NOTE: Super, Heavy or Medium Wake Turbulence category aircraft may be operating at the base
and near the boundaries of controlled airspace. Aircraft operating in Class G airspace in the vicin-
ity of controlled airspace may be affected by wake turbulence from aircraft operating within con-
trolled airspace.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 796
AUSTRALIA
AIRSPACE ORGANIZATION
1.1.8 When airspace classes adjoin laterally or vertically, flights at the common boundary will be
given services applicable to the lower class of airspace (where A is the highest and G is the
lowest).
b. For control areas or control zones — in accordance with the airspace classification for the
airspace when it is active.
1.5.4 ATC will advise pilots of the level of service they will receive when granting approval or
clearance to enter a released area from Class E or G airspace, or if the level of service will be in
accordance with Class E or G within the released area.
d. Under certain conditions, the pilot of one aircraft may be given the responsibility for separa-
tion with other aircraft. In this circumstance:
1. the pilot is also responsible for the provision of wake turbulence separation;
2. the pilot must advise ATC when they are unable to maintain, or has lost, sight of the
other aircraft;
3. where an aircraft has been instructed to maintain own separation from an IFR aircraft,
ATC will issue traffic information to the pilot of the IFR aircraft, including advice that
responsibility for separation has been assigned to the other aircraft; and
4. aircraft flying in formation will not be provided with separation with respect to other air-
craft of the same formation, including take off and landing.
5. aircraft flying as part of an in-company flight will not be provided with separation with
respect to other aircraft of the same in-company flight whilst airborne. Runway separa-
tion will continue to be provided.
e. ATC will consider a formation of aircraft broken and will therefore process aircraft individually
from the time the formation aircraft are:
1. cleared to carry out touch-and-go landings;
2. required to go-around; or
3. cleared to carry out individual activities.
NOTE: A group of civil aircraft conducting the same flight (e.g. an air safari), which require the
aircraft to operate at separation distances greater than those specified for formation flights will be
considered to be separate aircraft when applying separation.
3 CLASS G AIRSPACE
3.1 FLIGHT INFORMATION AREAS
3.1.1 Non-controlled airspace in the Brisbane FIR and Melbourne FIR is classified as Class “G”
airspace.
3.1.2 North of 65° South, Class “G” airspace is divided into designated Flight Information Areas
(FIAs) within which a Flight Information Service (FIS) and SAR alerting services are provided by
an ATS unit.
3.1.3 On and north of 65° South, in Class “G” airspace, IFR and VFR flights are permitted. IFR
flights receive traffic information and a flight information service. VFR flights receive a flight infor-
mation service and may receive a surveillance information service if requested (ATC workload
permitting).
3.1.4 South of 65° South, in Class “G” airspace, IFR and VFR flights are permitted and all flights
receive a flight information service on request.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 799
AUSTRALIA
AIRSPACE ORGANIZATION
4.2 GENERAL
4.2.1 Airspace in which a potential hazard to aircraft operations may exist and all areas over
which the operation of civil aircraft may be restricted are promulgated as follows:
a. Prohibited Area: Airspace within which the flight of aircraft is prohibited.
b. Restricted Area: Airspace within which the flight of aircraft is restricted in accordance with
specified conditions.
c. Danger Area: Airspace within which activities dangerous to the flight of aircraft may exist at
specified times.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 800
AUSTRALIA
AIRSPACE ORGANIZATION
4.2.2 The boundaries, identification and hours of operation of the areas are portrayed on appro-
priate Enroute/Area and Terminal charts. The letters allocated for identification are:
P = Prohibited area
R = Restricted area
D = Danger area
Brisbane = YB
Melbourne = YM
Prohibited, Restricted and Danger Area numbers in the 900 series are allocated for temporary
special use airspace such as military exercises, air shows and special events.
These areas are promulgated by AIP SUP, or NOTAM as Brisbane FIR (YBBB) or Melbourne FIR
(YMMM) as appropriate for the location.
4.2.3 Unless otherwise specified, vertical limits are promulgated as above MSL when at or
below the transition altitude, or as a flight level when above the transition altitude. “NOTAM” indi-
cates that the vertical limits or hours of activation will be notified by NOTAM.
4.2.4 The promulgated vertical limits of prohibited and restricted areas include all the buffers
necessary for the protection of aircraft operating outside these areas. Therefore, the promulgated
levels may be used by aircraft avoiding the areas, except where the vertical limit abuts controlled
airspace, in which case, a clearance is required.
4.3.2.2 RA CONDITIONAL STATUS LEGEND: Conditional Status RA1: Pilots may flight plan
through the Restricted Area and under normal circumstances expect a clearance from ATC.
Conditional Status RA2: Pilots must not flight plan through the Restricted Area unless on a route
specified in the Jeppesen Enroute Preferred Routes or under agreement with the Department of
Defence, however a clearance from ATC is not assured. Other tracking may be offered through
the Restricted Area on a tactical basis.
Conditional Status RA3: Pilots must not flight plan through the Restricted Area and clearances will
not be available.
NOTE: In a declared emergency, every effort will be made to obtain approval to transit a Restric-
ted Area, irrespective of its conditional status.
4.3.2.3 If the conditional status is uncertain, treat the airspace as conditional status RA3 and
avoid the area.
4.3.3 Civil aircraft operating in military Restricted areas or airspace in which a military service is
provided will receive a service equivalent to that of Class C airspace, unless specified otherwise.
4.3.4 When compliance with an air traffic clearance requires flight:
a. from controlled airspace into an adjoining active restricted area or airspace; or
b. through an active restricted area or airspace into adjoining controlled airspace; or
c. through an active restricted area or airspace within controlled airspace,
the pilot-in-command may assume that ATC has obtained approval for the flight.
4.3.5 Approval for flight within an active danger area outside controlled airspace is not required.
However it is the responsibility of the PIC to be aware of the dangerous activity and take appropri-
ate precautions.
4.3.6 PRD areas may be activated or deactivated at short notice. Access to a Restricted area
may be available if the activity for which it has been activated has ceased (early deactivation). It is
a pilot responsibility to check current status with ATS.
4.4.3 Non-controlled airport procedures apply to all military airports when the CTR is deactiva-
ted.
5 LANES OF ENTRY
5.1 Lanes of entry are established to permit passage to and from specified Class “D” CTR with-
out entering an adjacent Class “C” or military CTR. The vertical limits provide separation from
overlying control or restricted areas.
5.2 When using these lanes, pilots must:
a. operate under the VFR;
b. conform with the general flight rules regarding terrain clearance, flight over populous areas
and low level restricted areas;
c. operate not higher than the altitude specified as the upper limit in the section being flown;
and
d. keep to the right.

CASR 91.055 in relation to the suitability of an airport:
a. Pilots should verify that the intended airport meets the requirements of CASR 91.410 as
regards to its suitability for the intended operation. Additionally, pilots should confirm with the
airport operator that the pavement strength of the airport meets the standards required by
the aircraft being operated. Pilots should also be aware that CASR Parts 121, 133, 135, and
138 may place additional airport requirements for a particular flight or type of operation.
b. Pilots should ensure that runway edge lighting, threshold lighting, illuminated wind direction
indicator, and any obstacle lighting (if required) is serviceable for any planned night opera-
tions. Additional lighting may be required for particular operations – refer to the applicable
regulation.

completed.
NOTE 1: An operator planning a flight by an aircraft with tire pressures and/or weight in excess of
that permitted by AIRPORT DIRECTORY — PAVEMENT STRENGTH LIMITATIONS must
ensure that a pavement concession is obtained..
NOTE 2: Emergency Landings. When safety is involved, the nearest airport which will permit a
landing without danger to the aircraft may be used, irrespective of the damage that may be
caused to the pavement.
NOTE 3: Airport lighting at an airport where a control tower is operating will be activated by ATC
as necessary. Pilots requiring airport lighting outside the control tower’s published hours should
use PAL, if available, or make appropriate arrangements with ATC. If ATC has already ceased
duty, requests should be directed to the local airport operator. Confirmation should be obtained
that requests for lighting will be satisfied.
NOTE 4: A pilot having made arrangements with ATS for night lighting must notify any change in
requirements.
NOTE 5: Additional details on acceptable means of compliance refer to are contained in the Part
91 AMC/GM document entries related to CASR 91.410, and, for Part 121 operations, the Part 121
AMC/GM document entry related to CASR 121.205.
3 ALTERNATE AIRPORTS
3.1 GENERAL
3.1.1 Except for Part 121 operations, a pilot in command must make provision for flight to an
alternate airport, when required, in accordance with the following paragraphs of this section (i.e.
all of section 3).
NOTE: The requirements related to Part 121 alternate airports are contained in Chapter 4 of the
Part 121 MOS, with interlinkages to Chapters 2 and 7 of the Part 121 MOS.
3.1.2 When a flight is required to provide for an alternate airport, any airport may be so nomina-
ted for that flight provided:
a. it is suitable as a destination for that flight; and
b. it is not an airport for which that flight would require to provide for an alternate airport; and
c. is not a helideck.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 807
AUSTRALIA
AIRPORTS AND GROUND AIDS
3.1.3 When an airport forecast is not available, the pilot in command must make provision for a
suitable alternate that has an available forecast.
NOTE: Alternate minima based on weather for night IFR operations is only paragraph (a)
above. If the planned destination airport for an IFR flight by night does not have any IAP, or
any IAP that the pilot can conduct, then due to paragraph 3.3.1, the flight must plan for a
destination alternate airport. By virtue of paragraph 3.1.2, the destination alternate airport
must have an IAP that the pilot is able to conduct, which would then result in paragraph (a)
being the applicable alternate weather minima.
3.2.11 For flight by airplanes under the VFR (day or night) and helicopters operating under the
VFR at night, the alternate minima are a ceiling of 1500 ft and a visibility of 8km.
3.2.11.1 For VFR helicopter operations by day, the alternate minima are the same as for night
unless the additional conditions specified in Section 2.07 of the Part 91 MOS are met. When
these additional conditions are met, the alternate minima requirements are as shown in paragraph
3.2.2.
nate airport unless portable runway lights are available and arrangements have been made for a
responsible person to be in attendance during the period specified in paragraph 2.1.1(c), to dis-
play the portable lights in the event of a failure of the primary lighting.
3.4.3 Pilot Activated Lighting (PAL)
When a flight is planned to land at night at an airport with PAL and standby power, provision must
be made for a flight to an alternate airport equipped with runway lighting unless a responsible
person is in attendance to manually switch on the airport lighting.
3.4.4 Alternate Airports — PAL
An airport served by PAL may be nominated as an alternate airport.
There is no requirement for a responsible person on the ground to be in attendance, but the air-
craft must be equipped with:
a. dual VHF; or
b. single VHF and HF communications and carries 30 minutes holding fuel to allow for the alert-
ing of ground staff in the event of a failure of the aircraft’s VHF communication.
3.4.5 The alternate requirements of paragraphs 3.4.1 to 3.4.4 inclusive need not be applied if
the aircraft carries holding fuel for first light plus 10 minutes at the destination.
3.4.6 An alternate airport nominated in accordance with requirements in paragraphs 3.4.2 and
3.4.3 need not have standby power or standby portable runway lighting.
3.4.7 A responsible person under paragraph 3.4.2 is one who has been instructed in, and is
competent to display, the standard runway lighting with portable lights.

displacement exceeds 30 days, however, for shorter periods all existing runway markings
remain.
5.5.6 Other markers or markings which may be associated with temporarily displaced thresholds
are:
a. Unserviceable cone markers (white and red) which, when placed across a runway between
the permanent and temporary threshold markings, denote the start of the take-off run availa-
ble;
b. Road safety cones or “witches’ hats” (orange) which, when placed across the full width of the
runway strip, denote the maneuvering limits for plant and equipment involved in the works;
c. Unserviceable cross markers (white), which indicate any part of the movement area not
available for operations;
d. Centerline arrows (white) to draw the pilot’s attention to the displaced threshold. Unless oth-
erwise indicated by unserviceable markings, the length of runway containing centerline
arrows is available for take-off in the direction of the arrows and for both take-off and landing
in the other direction.

6 LIGHTING
6.1 RUNWAY LIGHTING
6.1.1 Permanent Threshold Lighting
6.1.1.1 Permanent threshold lights are green and the following patterns are in use:
a. Standard Pattern: a row of six lights evenly spaced across the threshold which may, at
larger airports, be augmented by one or two extra wing-bar lights at each end;
b. Alternate Standard Pattern: two barettes each of three lights, one on each side of the
threshold;
c. An obsolescent pattern of five or six lights which still exists on some runways.
6.1.1.2 The Alternate Standard Pattern is generally installed at airports used predominantly by
aircraft having a maximum take-off weight of less than 5700kg.
6.1.1.3 At runways equipped with ILS, the Standard Pattern is used. When intensity stages 4, 5
or 6 are selected, this pattern is increased to give a 3m spacing between the lights.
6.1.1.4 Threshold lights across the runway show green in the approach direction only, except for
the single lights on either side of the runway, in line with the runway edge lights, which are omni-
directional.
6.1.2 Runway Threshold Identification Light (RTIL)
6.1.2.1 Where a runway threshold needs to be made more conspicuous, two flashing white
lights (strobes) are provided, one on each side of the runway, in line with the threshold.
6.1.2.2 These lights flash at a frequency of between 60 and 120 flashes per minute and are visi-
ble in the approach direction only. They can be used both in day and night, and are occasionally
used during daylight hours to indicate a temporarily displaced threshold.
NOTE: When runway threshold identification lights are used to indicate a displaced threshold, V-
bar markers may not be displayed.
6.1.3 Displaced Threshold Lighting
6.1.3.1 Where the threshold is temporarily displaced, temporary displaced threshold lights are
used to indicate the new threshold location at night. The pattern consists of two groups of five
lights showing green, one group on each side of the runway. If the runway width is 30m or less,
groups of 3 lights per side may be used.
6.1.3.2 If any length of runway prior to the displaced threshold is available for taxiing or for take-
off from that end of the runway, or for landing or take-off from the other end of the runway, the
runway edge lighting on this part of the runway will show red in the direction of approach to the
displaced threshold, and show white in the opposite direction. (see Figure 1)
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 830
AUSTRALIA
AIRPORTS AND GROUND AIDS
6.1.3.3 If the alteration to the threshold location is caused by an unserviceable area of the
runway, all runway edge lights on this part of the runway will be extinguished. Unserviceability
lights, showing red, will be placed across the runway at the entrance to the closed area. Work
Limit lights, showing amber/yellow/orange, are provided to indicate to persons associated with the
works organization, the limit of the works area. (see Figure 2)
NOTE: Figure 1 and 2 show examples of Displaced Threshold Lighting. They are not the only
possible configurations.
6.1.3.4 For an airport with scheduled international air transport operations, if a threshold is tem-
porarily displaced then RTIL will be provided at the displaced location (except for an emergency).
NOTE: RTIL are also recommended for temporarily displaced thresholds on runways generally.
RTIL must be used by day to mark a temporarily displaced threshold of a runway serving sched-
uled international air transport operations.

tion. All lights are unidirectional and visible to the pilot of an aircraft taxiing to the holding position.
They are illuminated day and night.
6.1.9 Hold Short Lights
6.1.9.1 These lights are installed on all runways used for LAHSO. The lights indicate the posi-
tion of the hold-short line (no closer than 75m from the intersecting runway center-line) and are
additional to the runway intersections signs and hold-short position markings. They consist of a
line of six white, unidirectional lights occulting at approximately 30 times per minute, installed
across the runway. During LAHSO, the lights will be on and occulting, but an ATC clearance to
take off, to land without a LAHSO instruction or requirement, or to cross the intersection after
completing a LAHSO, constitutes a clearance to cross the lights. When issued with a land-and-
hold-short instruction, a pilot must not permit the aircraft to pass the hold-short lights.
6.1.10 Stopway Lighting
6.1.10.1 Stopway lighting is provided where the runway is less than 1500m. The lighting con-
sists of side and end red lights, screened so as not to be visible to an aircraft approaching to land

6.9.3 For a precision approach runway on which CAT I approaches are conducted, 2 types of
approach lighting system may be provided:
a. Precision approach CAT I lighting system; distance coded centerline. This type of
approach lighting system is also known as the ‘Calvert’ system. (see below)
b. Precision approach CAT I lighting system; barrette centerline. This type of approach
lighting system is also known as Approach Lighting System with Sequenced Flashing Lights
(ALSF). As its other name implies, this type of approach lighting system includes a ‘running
rabbit’ array of sequenced flashing lights. (see below)

approach obstacle limitation surface. Accordingly, T-VASIS should not be used for approach
slope guidance until the aircraft is aligned with the runway.
NOTE 2: The presence of a thin layer of ground fog or mist may produce abnormal T-VASIS indi-
cations, including:
a. erroneous fly-down or fly-up signals; or
b. other fly-up or fly-down lights together with the correct lights (which are usually much brighter
than the erroneous lights). Consequently, pilots should exercise caution when using the T-
VASIS in ground fog or other conditions conducive to light reflection or refraction.
6.12.2.2 The above requirements may vary by 15 ft depending on the location of the system.
6.12.2.3 The intensity of the system may be varied at the request of the pilot.
6.12.2.4 An abbreviated version of T-VASIS (AT-VASIS) is used at some locations, with the
equipment located on only one side of the runway (usually the left).
6.12.3 PAPI
6.12.3.1 An installation consists of a set of four light boxes placed in a line at right angles to the
runway, abeam the touchdown point and usually on the left hand side. Each box radiates both red
and white light.
The transition between the red and white will appear instantaneous to the pilot (3 minutes of arc
change); however, light changes between adjacent boxes will not occur unless the approach
slope changes by about 0.25°. A one degree progressive incremental spread from the outermost
to the innermost light unit about the standard approach angle provides the visual guidance shown
in the following diagram.
PAPI Signals
6.12.3.2 The correct approach slope is shown to a ± 10 minute tolerance when two red and two
white lights are seen. The two-red indication is always closest to the runway, irrespective of which
side of the runway the PAPI is installed.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 842
AUSTRALIA
AIRPORTS AND GROUND AIDS
6.12.3.3 Unlike T-VASIS, PAPI is a point source aid. Thus a non-standard approach will not sig-
nificantly alter the threshold crossing height; only the approach angle will change as illustrated
below.
NOTE: An aircraft descending through the PAPI signals into the four-red zone will receive no
additional clues as to further downward displacement from the approach slope — the four reds
may remain visible to ground level.
6.12.3.4 Since the meaning of a four-white PAPI indication is significantly different to the same
T-VASIS indication, pilots should verify which system is installed prior to conducting the approach.
6.12.3.5 Condensation on PAPI lenses is known to be a cause of color distortion. Therefore,
PAPI systems should be activated at least ten minutes prior to use so that any condensation that
may have formed on the lenses is evaporated before use.
6.12.4 VASIS Control
When controlled by ATS, the operation of the relevant VASIS will be activated as follows:
a. whenever night landing facilities are activated;
b. by day, for all approaching schedules air transport, jet, and military aircraft; and
c. by day, on request by other aircraft.
When PAL is used to activate the runway lighting, the VASIS at both ends of the runway will be
activated unless otherwise indicated on airport charts or NOTAM.

GENERAL FLIGHT PROCEDURES
1 ALTIMETRY
1.1 PREFLIGHT ALTIMETER CHECK
1.1.1 General
1.1.1.1 Whenever an accurate QNH is available and the aircraft is at a known elevation, pilots
must conduct an accuracy check of the aircraft altimeter(s) at some point prior to take-off.
NOTE: Where the first check indicates that an altimeter is unserviceable, the pilot is permitted to
conduct a further check at another location on the same airfield; for example, the first check on
the apron and the second at the runway threshold (to determine altimeter serviceability).
1.1.2 IFR Altimeters
1.1.2.1 With an accurate QNH set, the altimeter(s) should read the nominated elevation to within
60 ft. If an altimeter has an error in excess of +/- 75 ft, the altimeter is to be considered unservice-
able.
1.1.2.2 When two altimeters are required for the category of operation, one of the altimeters
must read the nominated elevation to within 60 ft. When the remaining altimeter has an error
between 60 ft and 75 ft, flight under the IFR to the first point of landing, where the accuracy of the
altimeter can be re-checked, is approved. In the event that the altimeter shows an error in excess
of 60 ft on the second check, the altimeter must be considered unserviceable for flight under the
IFR.
1.1.2.3 An aircraft fitted with two altimeters, but requiring only one for the category of operation,
may continue to operate under the IFR provided one altimeter reads the nominated elevation to
within 60 ft. Should the remaining altimeter have an error in excess of 75 ft, that altimeter must be
placarded unserviceable and the maintenance release appropriately endorsed.
1.1.2.4 When an aircraft is fitted with only one altimeter and that altimeter has an error between
60 ft and 75 ft, flight under the IFR to the first point of landing, where the accuracy of the altimeter
can be re-checked, is approved. In the event that the altimeter shows an error in excess of 60 ft
on the second check, the altimeter is to be considered unserviceable for flight under the IFR.
1.1.3 VFR Altimeters
1.1.3.1 With an accurate QNH set, a VFR altimeter(s) should read site elevation to within 100 ft
(110 ft at test sites above 3300 ft) to be accepted by the pilot as serviceable. If an aircraft fitted
with two VFR altimeters continues to fly with one altimeter reading 100 ft (110 ft) or more in error,
the faulty altimeter must be placarded unserviceable and the error noted in the maintenance
release.
1.1.3.2 VFR altimeters are not permitted for airplane operations above FL200. VFR flights oper-
ating above FL200 must be equipped with an altimeter calibrated to IFR standards.
1.1.4 Accurate QNH and Site Elevation
1.1.4.1 A QNH can be considered accurate only if it is provided by one of the following:
a. AAIS;
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 846
AUSTRALIA

b. ATC;
c. ATIS;
d. AWIS;
e. CA/GRS; or
f. WATIR.
NOTE: QNH contained in an authorized weather forecast must not be used for checking the accu-
racy of a pressure altitude system.
1.1.4.2 Site elevation must be derived from airport survey data that is authorized in writing by
either CASA or an NAA, or supplied in writing by the relevant airport operator.
b. Area QNH must not differ from an adjoining Area QNH by more than 5 hPa.
1.2.3 Local QNH
1.2.3.1 Local QNH, whether provided by ATS, AWS, or Aerodrome Forecast (TAF) or by using
the altimeter subscale to indicate airfield elevation, is used as shown at Figure 1.
1.2.4 Limitations
1.2.4.1 To retain a minimum buffer of 1000 ft above the transition altitude, FL 110 must not be
used for cruising when the Area QNH is less than 1013 hPa. With a progressive decrease in the
value of the Area QNH, FL115 and FL120 must not be used when the Area QNH is below 997
hPa and 980 hPa respectively.
1.2.4.2 At the oceanic limits of Australian FIRs, a pilot may fly a level different from those set out
in the tables of cruising levels due to Area QNH conflicting with the standard pressure setting.
1.2.5 General
1.2.5.1 Heights measured from a QNH or Area QNH datum must be expressed in full; e.g., 3000
ft as “THREE THOUSAND” and 1800 ft as “ONE THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED”, adding if nec-
essary, “ON...(QNH)”.
1.2.5.2 Expressions of height measured from the 1013.2 hPa datum must always include the
words “FLIGHT LEVEL”.

4.1.1 VFR flight may only be conducted:
a. in VMC;
b. provided that, when not navigating by visual reference to the ground or water, the pilot in
command must comply with the requirements of Chapter 14 of the Part 91 MOS, as if the
flight were an IFR flight;
c. at sub-sonic speeds; and
d. in accordance with speed restrictions identified in ATC — AIRSPACE ORGANIZATION —
Classes of Airspace — Services and Requirements.
4.1.2 Unless the pilot in command is authorized under CASR Part 61 to conduct a flight under
the IFR or at night under the VFR and the aircraft is appropriately equipped for flight at night or
under the IFR, a VFR flight must not be conducted at night.
4.1.3 For pilots not authorized to fly at night, it is recommended that they plan to arrive at the
later of the destination airport or alternate airport at least 10 minutes before last light (allowing for
any required holding).
4.3.2 IFR flights must be conducted in accordance with the airspace speed limitations specified
in ATC — AIRSPACE ORGANIZATION — Classes of Airspace — Services and Requirements.
5 NAVIGATION REQUIREMENTS
5.1 FLIGHT UNDER THE IFR
5.1.1 An aircraft operating under the IFR must be navigated by:
a. an approved area navigation system that meets performance requirements of the intended
airspace or route; or
b. use of a radio navigation system or systems on routes where, after making allowance for
possible tracking errors of +/-9° from the last positive fix, the aircraft will come within the
rated coverage of a radio aid which can be used to fix the position of the aircraft. The maxi-
mum time interval between positive fixes must not exceed two (2) hours; or

ned descent below the cloud layer will permit the descent to be conducted in VMC.
(4) The position at which descent below cloud is planned to occur must be such as to
enable continuation of the flight to the destination and, if required, an alternate airport in
VMC (see Note).
e. When navigating by reference to radio navigation aids or GNSS, the pilot-in-command must
obtain positive radio fixes at the intervals and by the methods prescribed in paragraphs 5.1
and 5.5.

tems or any other means must indicate in the flight notification only those radio navigation
aids with which the aircraft is equipped and the pilot is competent to use under CASR
61.385.
NOTE: Pilots should not initiate VFR flight on top of more than SCT cloud when weather condi-
tions are marginal. Before committing to operate VFR flight on top of more than SCT cloud, pilots
should be confident that meteorological information used is reliable and current, and clearly indi-
cates that the entire flight will be able to be conducted in VMC.
5.3 TIME
5.3.1 During flight, pilots must maintain a time reference accurate to within +/- 30 seconds.
c. GNSS meeting the equipment and pilot requirements of paragraph 5.8 — Radio Navigation
Systems Requirements.

5.11.3 ADS-B Equipment in State Aircraft
5.11.3.1 State aircraft fitted with non-compliant ADS-B transmitting equipment should set the
equipment to output a value of zero for the NUCp, NACp, NIC or SIL. If unable to apply these
settings, the ADS-B equipment non-compliance must be detailed in the flight notification. Non-
ADS-B equipped state aircraft have equal priority with ADS-B-equipped aircraft.
NOTE 1: The operation of non-compliant ADS-B equipment can significantly affect and degrade
ATS surveillance capability.
NOTE 2: State aircraft in flight that have not flight planned as above may request operation under
the provisions of ATC — CLIMB AND CRUISE — Cruising Levels — “Due Operational Require-
ment”.
NOTE 2: Pilots may become aware of the presence of an adjacent aircraft by several means,
including:
a. visual acquisition;
b. information provided by ATC; or
c. TCAS Traffic Advisory (TA).
b. The pilot in command of an aircraft must advise ATS if any of the following occurs:
1. during an en route phase of flight — there is RAIM loss or loss of GNSS integrity for
more than 5 minutes;
2. during a terminal phase of flight — there is RAIM loss or loss of GNSS integrity;
3. when ATS requests the provision of GNSS-derived information — RAIM or GNSS integ-
rity is not available;
4. when ATS grants a clearance or imposes a requirement based on GNSS-derived infor-
mation — RAIM or GNSS integrity is not available;
5. the GNSS receiver is in dead-reckoning mode, or experiences loss of its navigation
function, for more than 1 minute.
c. If valid position information is lost or non-RAIM operation exceeds 5 minutes, the GNSS
information is to be considered unreliable and another means of navigation should be used
until RAIM is restored and the aircraft is re-established on track.
d. Following re-establishment of RAIM, the appropriate ATS unit should be notified of RAIM
restoration prior to using GNSS information. This will allow ATC to reassess the appropriate
separation standards.

Williamtown (Military) Traffic Holding Fuel
All civil aircraft require 30 minutes holding fuel during Air Traffic Service hours. Non-standard pri-
orities apply during Air Traffic Service hours.
10 MINIMUM FUEL
10.1 The pilot-in-command shall advise ATC of a minimum fuel state by declaring MINIMUM
FUEL when, having committed to land at a specific airport, the pilot-in-command calculates that
any change to the existing clearance to that airport may result in landing with less than fixed fuel
reserve.
NOTE 1: The declaration of MINIMUM FUEL informs ATC that all planned airport options have
been reduced to a specific airport of intended landing and any change to the existing clearance
may result in landing with less than final fuel reserve. This is not an emergency situation but an
indication that an emergency situation is possible should any additional delay occur.
NOTE 2: Pilots should not expect any form of priority handling as a result of a “MINIMUM FUEL”
declaration. ATC will, however, advise the flight crew of any additional expected delays as well as
coordinate when transferring control of the aircraft to ensure other ATC units are aware of the
flight’s fuel state.
11 EMERGENCY FUEL
11.1 The pilot-in-command must declare a situation of fuel emergency by broadcasting
MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY FUEL, when the calculated usable fuel predicted to be available
upon landing at the nearest airport where a safe landing can be made is less than the final fuel
reserve.
NOTE 1: MAYDAY FUEL declaration is a distress message.
NOTE 2: In circumstances where a normal approach and landing is expected and the pilot
assesses there is no requirement for emergency services, ATS should be so advised as early as
possible, e.g., “EXPECTING NORMAL APPROACH AND LANDING, EMERGENCY SERVICES
NOT REQUIRED.”

13 FLYING TRAINING
13.1 AB INITIO FLYING TRAINING AT AN AIRPORT
13.1.1 It is recommended that airports at which ab initio flight training is conducted have the fol-
lowing characteristics:
a. The TODA and LDA for the runway are at least 120% of the distance required by the Aircraft
Flight Manual or performance chart;
b. In the case of airplanes for which there is no Aircraft Flight Manual or performance chart, the
TODA and LDA for the runway are at least 120% of the distance specified in the airplane’s
certificate of airworthiness;
c. There are obstacle-clear approach and take-off slopes of no more than 3.33% to a distance
of 1600M from each end of the runway.
NOTE: Pilots should not initiate VFR flight on top of more than SCT cloud when weather condi-
tions are marginal. Before committing to operate VFR flight on top of more than SCT cloud, pilots
should be confident that meteorological information used is reliable and current, and clearly indi-
cates that the entire flight will be able to be conducted in VMC.
1.2 FORECASTS
1.2.1 Forecast information must include:
a. an airport forecast for the:
1. departure;
2. destination; and
3. when required, any alternate airports; and
b. one of the following:
1. a flight forecast; or
2. a GAF (at and below A100); or
3. a SIGWX forecast (above A100); and
c. a wind and temperature forecast.
For a flight to a destination for which a prescribed instrument approach procedure does not exist,
the minimum requirement is a GAF.
NOTE: A wind and temperature forecast may be obtained from Wind and Temperature Charts,
Grid Point Wind and Temperature Charts, Route Sector Winds and Temperatures Forecasts, a
NAIPS Wind and Temperature Profile (applicable for the flight), as well as from approved flight
planning systems that derive data from the Bureau of Meteorology of the WAFS.
1.2.2 For flights for which a forecast is required and cannot be obtained, the flight is permitted to
depart provided the pilot is satisfied that the weather at the departure point will permit the safe
return of the flight within one hour of departure. The flight is permitted to continue provided:
a. for Part 121 operations — the authorized weather forecasts for the route, destination and
any planned alternate airports, are obtained within 30 minutes after departure.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 866
AUSTRALIA
FLIGHT PLANNING
b. for all other operations — the authorized weather forecast for the destination airport is
obtained within 30 minutes after departure.
1.2.3 For flights to a destination for which an airport forecast is required and cannot be obtained,
the flight is permitted to depart provided an alternate airport meeting all the requirements speci-
fied in ATC — AIRPORTS AND GROUND AIDS — Alternate Airports is provided.
1.2.4 A pilot-in-command must ensure that the forecasts cover the period of the flight and that
the airport forecasts for the destination and alternate airports, to be nominated in the flight plan,
are valid for a period of not less than 30 minutes before and 60 minutes after the planned ETA.
1.2.5 When a flight is delayed so that the meteorological and operational information does not
cover the period of flight, updates must be obtained, as necessary, to allow the flight to be conclu-
ded safely.
1.2.6 A series of flights may be included on the one flight plan provided that:
a. the meteorological forecast will cover all the flights; and
b. relevant AIS information is available at flight planning.
1.2.7 When preflight briefing is obtained more than one hour prior to EOBT, pilots should obtain
an update before each departure to ensure that the latest information available can be used for
the flight. The update should be obtained by NAIPS pilot access, telephone, or, when this is
impracticable, by radio.
2.4.4.1 The stored routes are a High route (above FL200), Low route (below FL200) or Interna-
tional route (routes leaving Australia). More than one route may exist between any two locations.
A list of stored routes is available from the route directory.
2.4.4.2 Low level stored routes (prefixed with L and a number) will provide the following data:
a. Head Office NOTAM.
b. FIR NOTAM relevant to the route.
c. MET and NOTAM for departure, destination and alternate.
d. GPS RAIM forecasts for departure, destination and alternate.
e. ATIS for departure and destination (and alternate if available).
f. NOTAM on PRD areas with 50 NM radius of departure and destination.
g. Area forecasts, AIRMET, SIGMET and AIREP Specials.
h. Wind and temperature profile if planned level is above FL110.

3 FLIGHT NOTIFICATION
3.1 Flight notification requirements are divided into two specific categories:
a. those affecting IFR flights; and
b. those affecting VFR flights.
IFR flights require the submission of flight notification details and the transmission of in-flight pro-
gress reports at regular intervals. SARWATCH is based primarily on the receipt of these reports
by ATS. (See also AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL — COMMUNICATIONS — Radio Communications.)
3.3 Pilots of VFR flights nominating a SARTIME to ATS, and those intending to operate in con-
trolled airspace (except for VFR flights in Class E airspace) must submit flight details to ATS.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 874
AUSTRALIA
FLIGHT PLANNING
3.4 The order of preference for pilots to submit comprehensive flight notification are:
a. via pilot access to NAIPS (via the internet),
b. in writing,
c. by telephone, or
d. by radio to ATS.
3.5 Pilots should submit details required for flight in controlled airspace at least 30 minutes
before the expected time of entry. Flight details submitted with less than the 30 minutes notifica-
tion may be subject to delay.
3.6 Pilots submitting SARTIME flight notifications by facsimile must confirm receipt of the notifi-
cation with the briefing office. Further, Airservices strongly recommends that when any flight notifi-
cation is submitted by facsimile, the pilot or operator telephones the briefing office before depar-
ture to confirm that the facsimile has been received.
3.7 Abbreviated details for operations in controlled airspace may be advised by radio if the flight
is to operate locally, or operations will be for a brief duration. However, prior contact with ATC
may avoid delays. Pilots may submit details by radio to ATS when associated with a clearance
request, or to nominate a SARTIME.
3.8 When submitting flight notification by radio, pilots should be mindful of the need to minimize
frequency congestion and transmit only that information required by ATS for the current flight
stage. Acceptance is subject to ATS workload and may be delayed.
3.9 Submission of comprehensive travel flight notification by radio is not a preferred method of
notification and should not be used when submission by some other means is available. Flight
notification by radio for travel flights requiring the submission of comprehensive details will not be
accepted at controlled aerodromes.
3.10 Pilots of VFR flights wishing to operate in other than Classes C or D airspace, and who
wish to nominate a SARTIME, may submit details in the NAIPS SARTIME flight notification format
(via the internet). If submitting the flight notification by facsimile or via telephone, the only form
available is the Australian Domestic Flight Notification form.
Pilots conducting a Community Service Flight as defined in ATC — DEFINITIONS AND ABBRE-
VIATIONS are required to submit a flight notification (see paragraph 3.22 below and ATC — SPE-
CIAL OPERATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS — Requirements for Community Service Flights
(CSF)) and identify the flight as a community service flight by entering the acronym “CSF” in the
remarks section of the flight notification. If the flight notification is submitted by radio, the pilot is
required to request ATS to annotate the flight as a CSF.
NOTE: Pilots are also required to annotate their personal logbook entry for the flight (required by
regulation 61.345) to reflect that the flight was conducted as a CSF.
3.12 If a VFR flight is one of the following:
a. a flight conducting an air transport operation; or
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 875
AUSTRALIA
FLIGHT PLANNING
b. a flight over water that is conducted beyond a distance from land greater than that which
would allow the aircraft to reach land with an engine inoperative; or
c. a flight in a designated remote area; or
d. a flight at night proceeding beyond 120 NM from the airport of departure;
Then the pilot in command must ensure one of the following has occurred:
a. submission of a flight plan, or
b. nomination of a SARTIME for arrival, or
c. leave a flight note with a responsible person.
3.13 VFR flights which are required to, or wish to, use a SARTIME may do so by providing ATS
with the following details:
a. call sign;
b. aircraft type;
c. departure point;
d. route to be flown;
e. destination;
f. POB; and
g. SARTIME.
NOTE: Only one SARTIME may be current at any time. To prevent the existence of multiple
SARTIMEs for aircraft used by more than one pilot, SARTIMEs should be nominated imme-
diately before the start of each flight.
3.14 VFR flights operating on SARTIME are requested to include contact telephone details for
the pilot or company at the destination where available.
3.15 VFR flights may operate on reporting schedules in the following circumstances:
a. flood, fire or famine relief flights;
b. search and rescue flights;
c. overwater flights; and
d. military flights.
3.16 When the pilot of a flight wishes to indicate a variation of SAR requirements, this must be
indicated in Item 8 – Flight Rules, amplified in Item 15 (Route) by the position at which the change
will occur, followed by the new flight rules.
3.17 Submission of flight details at least 30 minutes before EOBT is recommended.
3.18 Where notification of flight details, or changes to details, are submitted less than 30
minutes before EOBT, delays will be encountered when an ATC unit requires that the data be
programmed into the computerized SSR Code/Call Sign Management System.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 876
AUSTRALIA
FLIGHT PLANNING
3.19 The preferred method to cancel a SARTIME is via telephone to CENSAR on 1800 814 931.
When telephone facilities are not available you may use ATS frequencies.
3.20 SARTIMEs are managed on a national basis by the central SARTIME management data-
base, CENSAR.
3.21 The following table identifies flight notification options for the various classes and types of
operations when flying IFR or VFR.
3.22 Pilots not formally required to submit flight notification, or leave a flight note as defined in
the preceding paragraphs, are nevertheless encouraged to leave a flight note.
NOTE: The reverse side of the Australian Flight Notification Form contains a “flight log/template”
to assist pilots in planning and navigation. It is not intended to be mandatory or prescriptive, and
pilots may use any template, or other device, of their choice.
4.1.2 The flight notification forms are available from the Airservices website (www.airservice-
saustralia.com/flight-briefing/).
4.1.3 The suggested format for a Flight Note is at APPENDIX 3. This form is available from the
CASA website: www.casa.gov.au.
4.5 GENERAL
4.6.1
4.5.1 Pilots of flights operating IFR under a Private IFR rating must include this advice when
submitting flight notification. Flight Procedure Authorizations (FPAs) applicable to flight within con-
trolled airspace must also be included.
4.5.2 For flights not operating along an ATS route, reporting points should be provided in
Item 15 for locations approximately 30 minutes or 200 NM apart.
4.6.4 Pilots entering geographical coordinates must adhere to the correct format e.g.,
2730S15327E.
5.2 If advising ATS of a change of aircraft ident and/or registration, pilots of SARTIME flights
must also advise, prior to takeoff, that the flight is subject to a SARTIME.
5.3 To assist in managing the airways system, pilots should always warn ATS of any flight notifi-
cation amendments by utilizing appropriate alerting phraseologies; e.g.:
“MELBOURNE CENTER, DELTA MIKE GOLF, IFR FLIGHT PLAN AMENDMENT”
or
“FLIGHTWATCH, DELTA MIKE GOLF, SARTIME FLIGHT PLAN AMENDMENT”.

charts and other aeronautical information and instructions, published:
a. in AIP, or
b. in NOTAM, or
c. authorized aeronautical information by a data service provider, that are relevant to the route
to be flown, and any probable diversionary route that may be flown, on that flight; or
d. for a flight in a foreign country:
1. in the document that in that country is equivalent to the AIP; or
2. by an organization approved to publish aeronautical information by the national aviation
authority of that country.
7.2.3 ACA slots may be obtained from ACA MON–FRI 2200-0600 UTC as follows:
7.2.4 Notification of changes to slots allocated to existing scheduled flights should be advised to
ACA in accordance with the requirements of the appropriate traffic management scheme.
7.2.5 ACA slots may be obtained outside ACA office hours for short notice non-scheduled flights
from the NCC on 1800 020 626. These slots will be allocated from the available pool.
7.2.6 Allocated ACA slots may be subject to change by ATFM due to operational constraints.
through their operator or the NCC (as per paragraph 7.3.2.1). ATC are not able to provide new or
amended COBT.
7.3.2.4 For early non-compliant flights, ATC will only issue a clearance to push back or taxi for a
significant ground-based operational requirement or if there is a reasonable expectation that, due
to taxi or runway-holding position delays, the required CTOT will be achieved.
7.3.2.5 If a new COBT has been issued after receiving airways clearance, pilots are to advise
ATC of the amended COBT when calling for a start/pushback/taxi clearance.
7.3.2.6 Notwithstanding actions taken under 7.3.2.3 and 7.3.2.4 to achieve compliance, flights
departing non-compliant can expect delays enroute. Non-compliant flights will be allocated the
next available slot time up to a maximum delay as follows:
a. Early non-compliant – 60 min; or
b. Late non-compliant – published traffic holding delay.
7.3.3 Non-scheduled Flights
7.3.3.1 Prior to submitting a flight plan, pilots of non-scheduled flights intending to operate into a
GDP airport during the hours of program operation:
a. a. should, if required, obtain an ACA slot from ACA prior to contacting the NCC; and
b. must contact the NCC for a COBT and, if unable to obtain prior, an ACA slot.
7.3.3.2 Where possible pilots should contact the NCC prior to 0800 UTC the day before to
ensure their flight in included in the GDP run for the following day. Operators who contact the
NCC after the GDPs have been run will be allocated the next available COBT.
7.3.3.3 Pilots must provide the following information to the NCC at least one hour prior to the
proposed operation. Any changes must be notified to the NCC prior to departure.
(1) Aircraft call sign
(2) Aircraft registration
(3) Aircraft type
(4) Departure airport
(5) Destination airport
(6) ETD (UTC time only)
(7) ETA (UTC time only)
(8) COBT notification email/mobile phone number
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 883
AUSTRALIA
FLIGHT PLANNING
7.3.3.4 Notification of flight details to the NCC is additional to all existing flight plan notification
requirements.
7.3.3.5 Pilots of non-scheduled flights must check their COBT for any amendments prior to flight
by:
a. being able to receive a message from the NCC via their mobile phone/email; or
b. contacting the NCC within one hour of the flight; or
c. where no communication facilities are available, contacting the domestic HF frequency.
7.3.4 GDP Run Times
7.3.4.1 GDPs for the following day’s operations are normally run at the following times:
7.4 TACTICAL
7.4.1 Aircraft Sequencing Near ATFM Airports
7.4.1.1 Due to terminal area traffic density, pilots may expect airborne traffic delays for arrival at
locations adjacent to or within Class C control zones.
7.4.1.2 When sequencing arriving aircraft to controlled airports, ATC may apply one or more of
the following:
a. Enroute holding procedures;
b. Allocate a waypoint crossing time to the pilot; or
c. Tactically apply delaying action such as speed control or vectoring.
7.4.1.3 When ATC allocates a waypoint crossing time, aircraft must adjust speed to cross the
waypoint at the specified time or up to 30 seconds early. Speed adjustment to meet a waypoint
crossing time only applies to the specified waypoint. Unless otherwise published or instructed by
ATC, pilots must cross the waypoint at the lesser of 250 kt or profile speed.
7.4.1.4 Aircraft unable to meet the waypoint crossing time must inform ATC as early as possible.
a. Validate their COBT with Brisbane flow on 07 3866 3588 during hours of GDP; or
b. Confirm a tactical landing slot with Brisbane flow on 07 3866 3588 outside periods of GDP.
Failure to do so will result in delays.
Flights departing YBAF, YBCG and YBSU for a landing at Brisbane must contact Brisbane flow
controller on 07 3866 3588 prior to engine start.

MENT.
urations planned to be in operation between the two Airports during the GDP, as Essendon Arriv-
als may become part of the arrivals sequence into Melbourne.
Fixed wing ACFT arriving at Essendon during these periods must contact the Network Coordina-
tion Centre (NCC) on 1800 020 626 to book a slot for arrival into Essendon.
Operators who upload a schedule into Metron Harmony or provide a schedule to the NCC will
have their ACFT automatically assigned a slot. ACFT operators will still need to confirm their allo-
cated slot time with the NCC.
All aircraft subject to the Essendon Slot Scheme must arrive within -5/+15 minutes of their alloca-
ted slot. Pilots unable to operate within the compliance window must contact the NCC to obtain a
new slot.
Failure to obtain or comply with a slot and/or to submit a flight plan for a flight to Essendon Airport
may result in extensive airborne holding or Airways Clearance being withheld if Essendon Airport
has no compatible arrival slots available.
A NOTAM will be issued notifying times the Essendon Slot Scheme is in operation or cancelling it
if weather conditions change.
Priority Flights as defined in AIR TRAFFIC RULES AND SERVICES, paragraph 7.1 A-G are
exempt from this procedure.

1.3 TAKE-OFF
1.3.1 Tower Frequency and Information Transfer
1.3.1.1 Domestic aircraft should change to tower frequency:
a. in the holding bay; or
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 911
AUSTRALIA
DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES
b. close to, or at, the runway-holding position of the nominated runway when ready for take-off.
1.3.1.2 At Class D airports, pilots must include the following information when reporting ready:
a. The departure runway when parallel runway operations are in progress;
b. Their intentions when operating wholly within a Class D CTR; and
c. Their tracking details when departing the Class D CTR and not in receipt of an airways clear-
ance.
1.3.2 Runway Entry
1.3.2.1 When a backtrack on the runway nominated for take-off is required, the pilot must obtain
a clearance to backtrack prior to entering the runway.
1.3.2.2 Aircraft issued a conditional clearance to enter or cross a runway must identify the vehi-
cle or aircraft causing the conditional clearance.
1.3.3 Stop Bar Contingency Procedures
1.3.3.1 If stop bar lighting cannot be deselected, the activation of stop bar contingency proce-
dures will be notified via voice or the ATIS. ATC may instruct pilots and drivers to cross an illumi-
nated stop bar when stop bar contingency procedures are in force.
1.3.4 Holding on Runway
1.3.4.1 The pilot-in-command must obtain a clearance before holding on the runway in use.
b. for aircraft that have been instructed to contact Centre, Approach or Departures once air-
borne — in which case an airborne report will be made on the relevant frequency.
1.6.2.2 Tracking information must confirm the track established with reference to the appropriate
navigation aid or, if tracking via a SID, confirm the SID designator.
1.6.3 Establishment on Track
1.6.3.1 Unless tracking via a SID or otherwise instructed by ATC, a pilot-in-command must
remain within 5 NM of the departure airport to establish flight on the departure track as soon as
practicable after take-off.
1.6.4 Frequency Change
1.6.4.1 When frequency change instructions are issued immediately preceding the take-off
clearance, pilots must transfer automatically from Tower as soon as practicable after take-off,
preferably within one mile of becoming airborne.
1.6.4.2 In all other situations, pilots of departing aircraft are required to remain on Tower fre-
quency until specific frequency change instructions are issued. Pilots can generally expect an
instruction to contact Departures Control prior to reaching 2000 ft and should, when advised,
effect the change as soon as practicable.
1.6.4.3 When contacting Area Control, pilots must advise the last assigned level and, if not
maintaining the assigned level, the level maintaining or last vacated level.
NOTE: The “last vacated level” may be omitted by identified aircraft squawking pressure altitude
derived level information.
a. comply with the VFR visibility and distance from cloud criteria stipulated in GENERAL
FLIGHT PROCEDURES paragraph 3;
b. comply with instrument flight rules that are applicable to the flight; ie, position reporting, radio
communications, cleared route, adherence to ATC clearance, etc; and
c. visually maintain obstacle clearance.
1.7.2.3 The pilot of an IFR flight operating VFR climb/descent must maintain vigilance so as to
see and avoid other aircraft. Additionally, the pilot accepts the responsibility for wake turbulence
separation.
1.7.3 ATC Procedures
1.7.3.1 On receiving a request for VFR climb/descent, ATC may instruct the pilot to “Climb/
Descent VFR” for a specified portion of the flight.
1.7.3.2 When the pilot is cleared to “Climb/Descend VFR”, ATC will provide:
a. mutual traffic information service on IFR flights;
b. traffic information service on known VFR flights as far as practicable; and
c. a flight information service.
NOTE: IFR separation is not provided.
unless operational reasons require, or ATC instructs or approves, otherwise. A sustained speed
variation of more than ±10KT IAS or ±M0.02 must be advised to ATC.
1.9.1.2 Pilots are not required to nominate a descent point if identified.
1.9.1.3 Pilots of IFR flights leaving Classes A, C, D or E airspace should, before entering Class
G airspace, contact the ATS unit providing services in that airspace.
1.9.2 Instrument Approach
1.9.2.1 ATC Authorization — Unless authorized to make a visual approach, an IFR flight must
conform to the published instrument approach procedure nominated by ATC.
1.9.2.2 A pilot request to conduct a specific approach should be made prior to STAR clearance
issue, or prior to top of descent for arriving aircraft not on a STAR eligible route.
1.9.2.3 Authorization for final approach will be in the form of a clearance for the type of
approach as shown on the approach chart title. If visual at the minima, the nominated runway
then becomes the clearance limit subject to any further ATC instructions and a clearance to land.
In the event that the aircraft is unable to land from the instrument approach or loses visual refer-
ence while circling, the aircraft is cleared to carry out the published missed approach unless ATC
directs otherwise. The pilot in command must seek further ATC instructions prior to reaching the
end of the missed approach procedure.
1.9.2.4 Where an instrument approach results in the aircraft leaving controlled airspace, the
clearance for the approach also provides clearance for the aircraft to re-enter overlying controlled
airspace or restricted area in the event of a missed approach. ATC should be advised as soon as
possible on the missed approach.
1.9.2.5 The full chart title of the instrument approach procedure, as described at the top of the
relevant chart, must be used in all clearances, coordination and readbacks relating to the proce-
dure, including entry procedures. However, with the exception of circling approaches, the suffix
may be omitted if there is no possibility of confusion. Where multiple approaches procedures are
on the same chart, only the approach procedure being conducted shall be referred to.
1.9.2.6 Aircraft may be instructed to track via an instrument approach procedure and a level
restriction assigned, if the aircraft is:
a. in VMC conducting instrument approach training; or
b. a military aircraft:
1. conducting a non-precision approach; or
2. conducting a precision approach provided that clearance for the approach is issued in
sufficient time for the aircraft to maintain the required descent rate in accordance with
the published procedure.
1.9.3 Visual Approach (rules related to ATC)
1.9.3.1 ATC Authorization — Except as detailed in the next paragraph, the criteria under which
visual approaches may be authorized by ATC are as follows:
a. For an IFR flight:
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 917
AUSTRALIA
DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES
1. By day when:
– the aircraft is within 30 NM of the airport; and
– the pilot has established and can continue flight to the airport with continuous visual
reference to the ground or water; and
– visibility along the flight path is not less than 5000m, or for helicopters 800m, or the
airport is in sight.
2. By night when:
– the pilot has established and can continue flight to the airport with continuous visual
reference to the ground or water; and
– visibility along the flight path is not less than 5000m; and
– the aircraft is within 30 NM of the airport; or

and given heading or tracking instructions to intercept final or to position the aircraft
within the circling area of the airport.
b. For a VFR flight by day and night, the aircraft is within 30 NM of the airport.
1.9.3.2 In addition to the requirements of the previous paragraph, with the exception of Austral-
ian and New Zealand operators and aircraft conducting independent visual approaches at
Sydney, Super or Heavy jet aircraft will only be assigned a visual approach when:
a. specifically requested by the pilot, and the pilot has reported the landing runway in sight; or
b. the straight-in approach aid is unserviceable.
1.9.3.3 In the case of sub-para b. above, the aircraft will be:
a. vectored to intercept final no closer than 8 NM from the runway threshold, at an altitude not
less than 2500 ft Above Airport Level (AAL); and
b. assigned a straight-in visual approach when:
1. established on final or on a heading to intercept final course at an angle of not more
than 30 degrees; and
2. visual glideslope guidance (VASIS/PAPI) is available; and
3. the pilot has reported the landing runway in sight.

1.10 LANDING
1.10.1 Provision of Operational Information
1.10.1.1 ATC will supply the following information for landing operations:
a. runway or direction;
b. wind direction and speed, QNH and, if required, temperature and/or dew point;
c. known significant weather information, including low cloud and visibility or runway visual
range;
d. the crosswind component on the runway to be used, if this equals or exceeds 8 kt for single-
engine aircraft or 12 kt for multi-engine aircraft;
e. the tailwind component;
f. airport surface conditions significant to the operation, including maintenance work within 23m
of the runway side stripe marking;
g. birds or other hazards to aircraft; and
h. cautionary advice of wake turbulence.
1.10.2 Selection of Landing Direction
1.10.2.1 The pilot-in-command must ensure that the nominated runway or direction is operation-
ally suitable. If the nominated runway or direction is not suitable then ATC must be advised using
the phrase “REQUIRE RUNWAY (number)”. Such a request will not result in loss of priority provi-
ded it is made:
a. before reaching 80 NM (120 NM for jets) from a capital city airport (including Essendon) or
30 NM from other primary controlled airports, for arriving aircraft wholly within controlled air-
space; or
b. on first contact with ATC for arriving aircraft entering controlled airspace within the distance
specified above or a control area step or a control zone.
1.10.2.2 The decision to land rests solely with the pilot-in-command.
1.10.3 Selection of Circuit Direction
1.10.3.1 A pilot-in-command must notify ATC if a particular turn or circuit is essential to the safe
operation of the aircraft. The word REQUIRE must be used to enable ATC to identify the safety
requirement.
1.10.4 Downwind Report to Tower
Unless otherwise instructed by ATC, the pilot of an arriving or circuit training aircraft must report
DOWNWIND when starting or entering the downwind leg of the traffic circuit. If frequency conges-
tion prevents the call being made when starting the downwind leg, the pilot must report MID-
DOWNWIND or LATE-DOWNWIND as appropriate.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 920
AUSTRALIA
DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES
1.10.5 Clearances
1.10.5.1 A pilot-in-command must not land unless the specific clearance “CLEARED TO LAND”
has been received.
NOTE: ATC approval must be obtained if asymmetric training is to be carried out within 5 NM of a
controlled airport.
1.10.6 Separation Minima for Landing
1.10.6.1 The appropriate wake turbulence separation standard will be applied by ATC between
landing aircraft, except when a pilot has been assigned responsibility to maintain separation with
another aircraft.
1.10.6.2 A landing aircraft will not be permitted to cross the threshold of the runway on its final
approach until:
a. a preceding departing aircraft using the same runway:
1. is airborne, and
– has commenced a turn; or
– is beyond the point on the runway at which the landing aircraft could be expected to
complete its landing roll and there is sufficient distance to maneuver safely in the
event of a missed approach;
2. is at least 1000m from the runway threshold, and
– has commenced the take-off run, and
– in the opinion of the controller, no collision risk exists, and
– the aircraft taking off has a MTOW of 7000kg or less, and
– the landing aircraft is performance category A and has a MTOW below 3000kg.
b. a preceding landing aircraft using the same runway:
1. has vacated it and is taxiing away from the runway; or
2. has landed and has passed a point at least 1000m from the threshold of the runway and
will vacate the runway without backtracking, and
– in the opinion of the tower controller, no collision risk exists, and
– the preceding landing aircraft has a MTOW of 7000kg or less, and
– the following landing aircraft is performance category A and has a MTOW below
3000kg; or
3. has landed and has passed a point at least 600m from the threshold of the runway, is in
motion and will vacate the runway without backtracking; and
– the preceding landing aircraft has a MTOW of less than 7000kg, and
– the following landing aircraft has a MTOW of 2000kg or less, or
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 921

DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES
4. in the case where the following landing aircraft is a helicopter, the preceding landing air-
craft is at least 300m down the runway from the threshold and ATC is satisfied no colli-
sion risk exists.
c. a preceding aircraft, using a different runway, has crossed or stopped short of the landing
aircraft’s runway.
In the above situations, a landing clearance may be issued if ATC expect that the required runway
separation standard will exist.
1.10.6.3 Other than as specified in Conditions for LAHSO, exceptions to separation minima are:
a. aircraft landing in formation with respect to each other; and
b. aircraft operating in different areas or lanes on airports with runways or facilities suitable for
simultaneous landings.
SMC frequency on vacating the runway strip, and then transmit the aircraft call sign and, if appli-
cable, parking bay number. A pilot-in-command may “REQUEST DETAILED TAXI INSTRUC-
TIONS TO (location)”.
1.13.7 The taxi clearance regulates movement on the maneuvering area. The separation of air-
craft taxiing on the maneuvering area is a joint pilot and controller responsibility. Taxi clearance
shall contain concise instructions and adequate information so as to assist flight crew to follow the
correct taxi routes, to avoid collision with other aircraft and objects and to minimize the potential
for the aircraft inadvertently entering a runway.
1.13.8 A taxi clearance will not relate to movement on the apron areas. However, available
essential information referring to other aircraft entering or leaving the same apron area will be pro-
vided.
1.13.9 Radio watch must be maintained on the SMC or tower frequency (where no SMC fre-
quency is provided) until parked.
Otherwise, it is recommended pilots use the Area VHF. This frequency may provide the best
means of gaining assistance from ATC or other pilots in the event of an emergency.
3.1.7 In the vicinity of uncharted airports, pilots have discretion to use the most appropriate fre-
quency that ensures safe operation. This may be 126.7 MHz. However, pilots should be aware
that transiting aircraft will be monitoring Area VHF. To ensure mutual traffic awareness, it is rec-
ommended that pilots using an alternative frequency also monitor Area VHF.
3.1.8 A glider for which radio carriage is required must maintain a listening watch.
3.1.9 An aircraft is considered in the vicinity of a non-controlled airport if it is within 10 NM of the
airport and at a height above the airport that could result in conflict with operations at the airport.
3.1.10 Pilots of aircraft transiting in the vicinity of a non-controlled airport should avoid flying
over the airport at an altitude that could conflict with operations in the vicinity of the airport.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 926

DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES
3.1.11 When a report from an IFR aircraft is made to FLIGHTWATCH on HF, a broadcast on the
appropriate CTAF or Area VHF is also required.
3.1.12 If calls are not made clearly and concisely using the standard phraseology, confusion can
arise at airports in close proximity that share the same CTAF.
3.1.13 The standard broadcast format is:
a. {Location} Traffic
b. {Aircraft type}
c. {Callsign}
d. {Position/level/intentions}
e. {Location}
3.1.14 The following tables provide a summary of recommended broadcasts to be made when
operating or arriving at, or departing from, a non-controlled airport. Pilots should also observe
local and published noise abatement procedures and curfews.
NOTE: Some distances above refer to the runway threshold and others to the ARP. Pilots should
be aware that a GNSS indication of 3 NM from an airport may not be 3 NM to the runway thresh-
old.
3.2.8 So as not to impede commercial aviation, pilots flying recreational or sport aircraft for their
own enjoyment, or pilots flying GA aircraft for their own leisure, should consider giving way to air-
craft being used for ‘commerce’ provided that the inconvenience to their own operation is not
great and it can be done safely. Operators of commercial aircraft should never expect a give way
offer to be assumed or automatic. Any offer to give way must be explicit and its acceptance
acknowledged.
3.5 TAXIING
3.5.1 Pilots of IFR flights operating from non-controlled airports must report to ATC on taxiing. If
unable to establish contact, proceed in accordance with Operations in Class G Airspace, Commu-
nications.
3.5.2 Taxiing reports for IFR flights must include the following information:
a. aircraft type;
b. POB (for flights other than air transport operations);
c. IFR;
d. location;
e. destination or departure quadrant or intentions; and
f. runway to be used.
3.5.3 Following the taxi report, a pilot of an IFR flight must report to ATC if changing to a CTAF
when the ATS frequency will not, or cannot, be monitored. This report must include the airport
location and frequency.

3.10.4 When arriving on the live side, the recommended method is to arrive at the circuit altitude
entering midfield at approximately 45 degrees to the downwind leg while giving way to the aircraft
already established in the circuit.
3.10.5 On downwind the applicable circuit altitude should be maintained until commencement of
the base leg turn. The base leg position is normally when the aircraft is approximately 45 degrees
from the reciprocal of the final approach path, measured from the runway threshold. Along the
base leg continue to lookout and maintain traffic separation.
3.10.6 When on the final leg, confirm the runway is clear for landing. The turn onto final
approach should be completed by a distance and height that is common to the operations at the
particular airport and commensurate with the speed flown in the circuit for the aircraft type. In any
case, the turn onto final should be completed by not less than 500 ft above airport elevation. This
should allow sufficient time for pilots to ensure the runway is clear for landing. It will also allow for
the majority of aircraft to be stabilized for the approach and landing.
the flow of circuit traffic. CASR 91.395 (2)(b) requires that the pilot conducting a straight-in
approach give way to any other aircraft established and flying in the circuit pattern at the airport.
3.11.2 CASR 91.395 (2)(a) requires pilots, before commencing a straight-in approach, to deter-
mine the wind direction and speed and the runway in use at the airport.
3.11.3 There are several ways to determine the wind direction, speed and runway in use:
a. AWS, AWIS, AAIS, CA/GRS or UNICOM,
b. Radio contact with a ground-based radio communication service, company agent, or aircraft
operating at the airport; or
c. Visual indications – if the information cannot be determined by the above means.
3.11.4 When conducting a straight-in approach, the aircraft must be established on final at not
less than 3 NM from the landing runway’s threshold CASR 91.395 (2)(c).
3.11.5 Pilots of aircraft conducting a straight-in approach at a non-controlled airport should
observe the following procedures:
a. The pilot in command should not commence a straight-in approach to a runway when the
reciprocal runway direction is being used by aircraft already established in the circuit.
b. All manoeuvring to establish the aircraft on final approach must be conducted outside a 3
NM radius from the intended landing runway threshold.
NOTE: Within 3 NM, pilots are expected to make only minor corrections to line up accurately
on final approach. This will enable pilots conforming to the airport traffic pattern to optimize
their visual scan for traffic along the final approach path.
c. The aircraft’s transponder should be squawking and its external lights, where fitted, should
be illuminated when on final approach. They should remain on until the aircraft has landed
and is clear of all runways.
d. An aircraft established on base leg or final approach for any runway has priority over an air-
craft carrying out a straight-in approach.
3. First aircraft in formation pitches out and po- 6. First aircraft calls turning on Base leg for the

NOTE: Aircraft conducting a low pitch will be at the low pitch altitude by position 3.
3.17 SARWATCH
3.17.1 Cancellation of SARWATCH other than SARTIME
3.17.1.1 Pilots wishing to cancel SARWATCH may do so by reporting to ATS.
3.17.1.2 When cancelling SARWATCH, pilots must include:
a. the aircraft radio call sign;
b. place of arrival or point from which SARWATCH services are no longer required;
c. the words “CANCEL SARWATCH”; and
d. when communicating with a unit other than that nominated, the name of the ATS unit to
which the report shall be relayed.
3.17.1.3 SARWATCH may be cancelled in combination with a pilot report of changing to the
CTAF, or in the circuit area, or after landing.
3.17.1.4 When the pilot of an IFR flight elects not to report in the circuit area to cancel SAR-
WATCH and has not reported within 10 minutes of ETA, ATS will commence communications
checks to obtain a landing report or an extension of SARWATCH.
3.17.1.5 ATS will acknowledge “CANCEL SARWATCH” reports with a readback of the place of
arrival, if appropriate, and the words “SARWATCH TERMINATED”.
3.17.2 Cancellation of SARTIME
3.17.2.1 When operating on a SARTIME, the pilot must cancel SARTIME by the time nominated
and, during the contact with ATS, include the words “CANCEL SARTIME”.
3.17.2.2 ATS will acknowledge “CANCEL SARTIME” reports with a readback of the place of
arrival, if appropriate, and the words “SARTIME CANCELLED”.
3.17.2.3 The preferred method to cancel a SARTIME is via telephone to CENSAR on 1800 814
931. When telephone facilities are not available you may use ATS frequencies.
3.17.2.4 For SARTIME flights, pilots of single VHF radio-equipped aircraft must cancel SAR-
TIME before changing to the CTAF, or after landing.
3.17.3 SARTIME for Departure
3.17.3.1 When submitting flight notification, a pilot may nominate a SARTIME for departure for
the initial departure airport only. For intermediate departure, it may be nominated by telephone
after landing, or as part of the arrival report associated with that airport. Only one SARTIME may
be current at any time.
3.17.3.2 The nomination of a SARTIME for departure does not absolve the pilot from complying
with the requirements for the carriage of serviceable radio equipment, nor from making the pre-
scribed reports.

DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES
3.17.3.3 An IFR departure report is not sufficient to cancel a SARTIME for Departure. Pilots who
have nominated a SARTIME for Departure must use the phrase “CANCEL SARTIME” with the
departure report.
4.4 PARTICIPATION
4.4.1 Active participation in LAHSO is available to pilots in each of the following categories:
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 939
AUSTRALIA
DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES
1. 20 kt crosswind;
2. 5 kt tailwind on a dry runway;
3. no tailwind when the runway is not dry.
b. A simultaneous take-off and landing is permitted by day only.
c. Simultaneous landings are permitted by day and night.
d. The ceiling is not less than the minimum vectoring altitude (MVA) for the location where
LAHSO are being conducted and visibility is not less than 8km.
e. Visibility may be reduced to 5000m where ATC are assured of sighting the aircraft prior to a
loss of the surveillance standard.
f. Advice to the departing aircraft may be given separately from the take-off clearance.
g. Instructions are issued to prevent a landing aircraft from crossing the Hold-Short Line when
the intersecting runway is being used by another aircraft.
h. The distance from the landing threshold to the Hold-Short Line of the intersecting runway is
adequate for the performance category of the aircraft being held short.
i. The Airport chart and Airport Directory show “LDA for LAHSO” information. Pilots must
ensure that the airplane can land safely within the LDA for LAHSO.
j. If a runway is reported as WET, the braking characteristics must have been assessed as
GOOD by the pilot of an aircraft in the same performance category prior to the landing air-
craft being instructed to hold short. ATC will request pilot assessments of the braking char-
acteristics hourly where weather conditions are deteriorating or remain unchanged.
k. The landing aircraft will not be instructed to hold short when low level wind shear is repor-
ted.
l. For active participants ground based visual or electronic glide slope guidance must be avail-
able and utilized.
m. After landing, the pilot must inform ATC immediately of any difficulty in complying with the
ATC requirement to hold short of a crossing runway strip.
NOTE: to l. above: This requirement does not apply to performance category A and B non jet air-
craft of less than 5700kg MTOW landing Runway 36 at Darwin.
4.6.2 Pilots of civil aircraft operating under a flight number callsign as advised in flight notifica-
tion, and pilots of Australian military aircraft, may omit the words “LAHSO APPROVED”. Aircraft of
operators who have advised in writing an intention not to participate will not be intentionally
sequenced for LAHSO. Where an aircraft or crew that would normally participate actively or pas-
sively in LAHSO does not meet the criteria for participation, this must be communicated to ATC at
the earliest opportunity.
4.6.3 Pilots of aircraft not operating under a flight number callsign who will be entering controlled
airspace within 120 NM of destination must advise ATC “LAHSO APPROVED”.
4.6.4 When crews experience wind shear early advice to ATC is essential to ensure timely infor-
mation is passed to subsequent aircraft.
provide standard separation. Nevertheless, ATC will issue traffic information and, if appropriate –
based on the relative position of aircraft, instructions for avoiding other aircraft.
4.11.2 When issued with avoiding action instructions, pilots should fly the specified heading
without delay.
4.11.3 Regardless of any avoiding action instructions, pilots should always defer to any TCAS
RA.

3.3.3 ATC will only assign cruising levels not conforming to these tables when traffic or other
operational circumstances require.
3.3.4 Subject to ATC instructions, a VFR flight must be flown at a cruising level appropriate to its
magnetic track according to Tables of Cruising Levels:
a. whenever the flight is conducted at a height of 3000 ft AMSL or more; or
b. if the flight is conducted at a height of less than 3000 ft AMSL whenever practicable (CASR
91.275).
3.3.5 An IFR flight must be flown:
a. within controlled airspace at a cruising level authorized for the flight by the ATC; or
b. outside controlled airspace at a cruising level appropriate to its magnetic track according to
Tables of Cruising Levels (CASR 91.290).
3.3.6 When an IFR flight operating outside controlled airspace is unable to comply with the
Tables of Cruising Levels, the pilot must:
a. notify the appropriate ATS unit of the intended change in operating level, and any subse-
quent changes; and
b. in the event of conflict with another aircraft complying with the Tables of Cruising Levels,
give way to that aircraft or assume a cruising level in accordance with the Tables of Cruising
Levels until the aircraft with which it is in conflict is past and clear (CASR 91.295 and
91.300).
NOTE: At pilot request, ATC may assign to aircraft a level for cruise within a control area
which does not provide the prescribed separation from the lower or upper limit of the control
area.
3.4.7 Aircraft operating within a block level must report the upper and lower block levels in all
positions and frequency change reports.
NOTE: As most altitude alerting systems do not provide protection for both upper and lower
assigned levels, flight crews are reminded to be vigilant in monitoring the aircraft altitude when
operating within a Block Level.
b. In the case of a step climb or descent, the specified rate will be applicable to all level clear-
ances issued in the course of the step climb or descent. If unable to comply with the prescri-
bed rate, the pilot-in-command must advise ATC.
3.5.1.11 Cruise Climb is not used in Australian administered airspace. Where possible, block
level clearances will be issued upon request.
3.5.2 ATC Approval Not Required
3.5.2.1 In airspace where ATC approval is not required to change level, the pilot of an IFR flight
must report present position and intention to ATC approximately one (1) minute prior to making
any change.
abeam the destination and then converging by a semi-circle of 50 NM radius centered on the des-
tination. On shorter routes, where these lines are displaced by less than 50 NM abeam the desti-
nation, they shall converge by a radius based on that lesser distance. Where the lines thus drawn
come at any time within the coverage of an enroute or destination radio aid the aircraft is equip-
ped to use, they will converge by straight lines to that aid. The minimum angle of convergence
which shall be used in this case is 10.3° each side of track.
3.6.7 For Routes Operated Under the RNP 2 Navigation Specification: The area to be con-
sidered must be within an area of 5 NM surrounding and including the departure point, the desti-
nation and each side of the nominal track.
3.6.8 For Other Area Navigation Operations: The area to be considered must be within an
area of 5 NM surrounding and including an area defined by lines drawn from the departure point
not less than 15° each side of the nominal track to a maximum of:
a. 8 NM for flights under the RNP 4 navigation specification;
b. 7 NM for flights under an RNAV navigation specification having a GNSS input; or
c. 30 NM for flights under a non-GNSS area navigation specification.
Thence paralleling track to abeam the destination and converging by a semicircle of the same

3.6.9 VFR Flights at Night: The area to be considered must be:
a. the area specified in paragraph 3.6.6, 3.6.7 or 3.6.8 for aircraft navigated by means of a
radio navigation system; or
b. within a radius of 10 NM from any point along the aircraft’s nominal track.
However, the pilot of an aircraft who has positively determined by visual fix that a critical obstacle
has been passed may nevertheless descend immediately to a lower altitude, provided that the
required obstacle clearance above significant obstructions ahead of the aircraft is maintained.
3.6.10 An aircraft must not be flown at night under the VFR, lower than the published lowest
safe altitude or the lowest safe altitude calculated in accordance with this section unless permitted
by CASR 91.265, 91.267 and 91.305 or another civil aviation legislation provision.
4.3 Where no route specification has been published on the relevant Enroute/Area chart, a route
determined by the pilot-in-command, and, if in controlled airspace, approved by ATC, will be plan-
ned.
4.4 Prior ATC approval is required for RNAV tracking on routes other than those published or in
the Airservices “Off Air Route Planning (OARP) Manual” (not published herein). Information and
rules regarding OARP are available at:
http://www.airservicesaustralia.com/industry-info/flight-briefing/off-air-route-flight-planning-options/
4.5 The position reporting points for a route should be separated by a distance approximately 30
minutes or 200 NM apart, whichever is least, and when practicable, should be selected from
those on Enroute/Area charts. Otherwise, the position reporting points should be places named
on VTC or WAC, and identifiable by radio or visual means. To minimize confusion when a position
is reported over a town which has a nearby airport of the same name, the word “TOWNSHIP” is to
be used after the name in the text of the report.
4.6 For an area-type flight as distinct from route flying, the pilot of an IFR flight or VFR flight in
those circumstances identified in Flight Planning (Series 600) may nominate scheduled reporting
times. These should be at half-hourly intervals. The pilot must specify the area’s boundaries by
means of a map provided with the flight notification details.
4.7 A pilot-in-command must make sure, by reference to the forecast, that the route selected for
a VFR flight will enable the aircraft to be flown with visual reference to the ground or water for
significant portions of the route, and in the vicinity of the destination aerodrome.
5 SEPARATION STANDARDS
5.1 REDUCED VERTICAL SEPARATION MINIMUM (RVSM)
5.1.1 Application of RVSM
5.1.1.1 Australia applies a 1000 ft reduced vertical separation minimum between approved air-
craft operating between FL290 and FL410 inclusive.
5.1.1.2 RVSM does not apply to formation flights and civil formation flights will not be issued
clearance to operate between FL290 and FL410 inclusive.
5.1.2 RVSM Operations
5.1.2.1 Aircraft transiting from adjacent FIRs into Australian FIRs between FL290 and FL410
inclusive must plan from the way-point on the FIR boundary using the Table of Cruising Levels at
paragraph 3.2.1.
5.1.2.2 Aircraft transiting from Australian FIRs between FL290 and FL410 inclusive to adjacent
FIRs must plan until the waypoint on the FIR boundary using the Table of Cruising Levels at para-
graph 3.2.1.
5.1.2.3 Aircraft that will cross latitude 80° South between FL290 and FL410 inclusive must plan
using the Table of Cruising Levels for operations north of 80° South, and the Table of Cruising
Levels for operations south of 80° South.

AUSTRALIA
CLIMB AND CRUISE
5.1.2.4 To have RVSM applied to their aircraft, operators must be approved by the State of Reg-
istry or State of the Operator.
5.1.2.5 Approved operators must ensure that height-keeping monitoring is undertaken at least
every two years or within intervals of 1,000 flight hours per aircraft, whichever period is longer, in
accordance with the aircraft categories as presented in the current version of the ICAO RVSM
Minimum Monitoring Requirements table. The table and further information on monitoring can be
obtained from the Australian Airspace Monitoring Agency (AAMA) at http://www.airservicesaustra-
lia.com/organisations/aama/.
5.1.2.6 Pilots of aircraft that are not RVSM-approved may plan within the RVSM flight level band
(FL290 to FL410 inclusive). However, clearance at RVSM levels is subject to disposition of traffic
and RVSM aircraft priority. The conventional vertical separation minimum will be applied between
aircraft that are not RVSM-approved and all other aircraft.
5.1.2.7 Pilots of non RVSM-approved State aircraft will be afforded equal priority with RVSM-
approved aircraft. Pilots planning to operate non-RVSM within the RVSM level band must flight
plan in accordance with the section on FLIGHT PLANNING.
5.1.2.8 Pilots of aircraft that are not RVSM-approved must report “NEGATIVE RVSM”.
5.1.3 Operational Procedures Before Entering the RVSM Flight Level Band —
RVSM Approved Aircraft
5.1.3.1 On each flight before entering the RVSM flight level band, pilots of RVSM-approved air-
craft must check to ensure that all of the following minimum mandatory equipment is operating
normally:
a. two independent primary altimetry systems,
b. a Mode C-capable SSR transponder,
c. an altitude alert system, and
d. an autopilot with height lock.
5.1.3.2 If any item of the minimum mandatory equipment listed in the previous paragraph is not
operating normally, a pilot must notify ATC before entering the RVSM flight level band using the
phraseology “NEGATIVE RVSM”.
5.1.4 Operational Procedures After Entering the RVSM Flight Level Band —
RVSM Approved Aircraft
5.1.4.1 During changes of level, an aircraft must not overshoot or undershoot its Cleared Flight
Level (CFL) by more than 150 ft (45m).
5.1.4.2 Failure of One Primary Altimetry System. If one of the primary altimetry systems fails,
but the remaining altimetry system is functioning normally, the pilot must:
a. couple that system to the autopilot with height lock;
b. maintain increased vigilance of altitude-keeping; and
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 956
AUSTRALIA
CLIMB AND CRUISE
c. notify ATC of the failure using the phraseology, “FOR INFORMATION, OPERATING ON
ONE PRIMARY ALTIMETER ONLY”.
5.1.4.3 Failure of All Primary Altimetry Systems. If all primary altimetry systems fail, or are
considered unreliable, the pilot must:
a. maintain the flight level indicated on the standby altimeter (if the aircraft is so equipped) at
the time of failure or when considered unreliable;
b. alert nearby aircraft by turning on all exterior lights and, if not in VHF contact with ATC, by
broadcasting advice of the failure, position, flight level, and intentions on 121.5 MHz;
c. notify ATC of the failure using the phraseology “NEGATIVE RVSM” and the intended course
of action.
5.1.4.4 In Oceanic Class A Airspace Area. If unable to obtain ATC clearance in a timely
manner following a failure of all primary altimetry systems in oceanic Class A airspace the pilot
must proceed as follows:
a. If operationally feasible to do so, leave the assigned route or track by turning at least 45°
right or left, whenever this is possible, taking account of adjacent routes and descend below
FL290.
b. If not operationally feasible to execute this contingency procedure, continue to alert nearby
aircraft and coordinate with ATC.
5.1.4.5 Divergence in Primary Altimetry Systems’ Indication. If the primary altimeters
diverge by more than 200 ft, the pilot must proceed as follows:
a. Attempt to determine the defective system through established “trouble-shooting” procedures
and/or comparing the primary altimeter displays to the standby altimeter (as corrected by
correction card, if required).
b. If the defective system can be determined, couple the functioning altimetry system to the
autopilot with height lock and proceed as in paragraph 5.1.4.2.
c. If the defective system cannot be determined, proceed as in paragraph 5.1.4.3.
5.1.4.6 Failure of the Mode C-capable SSR Transponder. If the mode C-capable transponder
fails, the pilot must notify ATC of the failure using the phraseology “NEGATIVE RVSM”.
5.1.4.7 Failure of the Altitude Alert System. If the altitude alert system fails, the pilot must
notify ATC of the failure using the phraseology “NEGATIVE RVSM”.
5.1.4.8 Failure of the Autopilot with Height Lock. If the autopilot with height lock fails, the
pilot must initiate the following actions sequentially;
a. Maintain CFL.
b. Evaluate the aircraft’s capability to maintain altitude through manual control.
c. Assess the situation regarding possible conflicting traffic.
d. Alert nearby aircraft by turning on all exterior lights and, if not in VHF contact with ATC,
broadcast advice of failure, position, flight level, and intentions on 121.5 MHz.

e. Notify ATC of the failure using the phraseology “NEGATIVE RVSM” and the intended course
of action.
5.1.4.9 In Oceanic Class A Airspace. Possible courses of action for the pilot following a failure
of the autopilot with height lock in oceanic Class A airspace include the following:
a. Provided that the aircraft can maintain CFL, continue at that level.
b. If the aircraft cannot maintain CFL and is unable to obtain a revised ATC clearance, leave
the assigned route or track by turning 90 degrees right or left, whenever this is possible,
taking account of adjacent routes.
5.1.5 ATC Responsibilities
5.1.5.1 ATC will apply alternative separation to any aircraft that has reported “NEGATIVE
RVSM” in accordance with requirements specified in this Section.
5.1.6 Weather and Wake Turbulence, and System Alerts
5.1.6.1 The pilot of an aircraft operating within the RVSM flight level band that encounters
weather turbulence that affects aircraft capability to maintain CFL, or wake turbulence, or experi-
ences distracting aircraft system alerts, must notify ATC and request a revised clearance before
deviating from track or CFL.
5.1.6.2 Oceanic Control Area Only. If a revised clearance is not possible or practicable, the
pilot of an aircraft operating in an oceanic control area may initiate the following temporary lateral
offset procedure with the intention of returning to the cleared route as soon as possible:
a. If possible, establish contact with other aircraft on the VHF inter-pilot air-to-air frequency
123.45 MHz.
b. Initiate a lateral offset (one or both aircraft may initiate) not to exceed 2 NM from the cleared
route or track, provided that:
1. as soon as practicable, the pilot(s) of the offsetting aircraft notify ATC that temporary
lateral offset action has been taken and the reason for doing so; and
2. the pilot(s) of the offsetting aircraft notify ATC when the aircraft is re-established on the
assigned route(s) or track(s).
5.1.7 Flight Level Deviation Reporting
5.1.7.1 For operations in the Australian FIR, flight crews must report all flight level deviations of
300 ft or more from the aircraft’s assigned level, irrespective of the cause of the deviation.
5.1.7.2 In reporting, crews must provide the information in the format detailed below. Reports

5.2.2 Application of Standards
5.2.2.1 In controlled airspace, unless the pilot has accepted responsibility for separation, ATC
will apply wake turbulence separation to:
a. aircraft in the approach and departure phases of flight when both aircraft are using parallel
runways separated by less than 760m; or
b. when an aircraft is operating directly behind another aircraft at the same level or less than
1000 ft below.
NOTE: Directly behind means an aircraft is operating within 760m laterally of the track of the lead-
ing aircraft.
5.2.2.2 ATC applies the following time based wake turbulence separation minima between the
relevant categories of aircraft:
5.2.2.3 ATC applies the following distance wake turbulence separation minima between the rel-
evant categories of aircraft:
5.2.2.4 Where the required separation can be determined by distance using an aircraft report or
ATS Surveillance System, ATC need not apply the time standard to an affected:
a. arriving aircraft;
b. departing aircraft unless it is departing from an intermediate point as described in Time Sep-
aration Minima.
5.2.2.5 ATC is not required to apply wake turbulence separation in the following situations:
a. when a MEDIUM fixed-wing aircraft of less than 25,000kg MTOW precedes a LIGHT aircraft;
b. when an aircraft is landing behind another aircraft that is taking-off on the same runway;
c. subject to pilot waivers, if a pilot has initiated a waiver of the relevant departure wake turbu-
lence separation minimum;
d. when a VFR aircraft is in flight and is:
1. operating directly behind a preceding HEAVY or MEDIUM aircraft; or
2. landing on the same runway as a preceding HEAVY or MEDIUM aircraft; or
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 961
AUSTRALIA
CLIMB AND CRUISE
3. landing on a parallel runway separated by less than 760m from the runway of a preced-
ing HEAVY or MEDIUM aircraft;
e. when an IFR aircraft is in flight and the pilot has:
1. reported the preceding aircraft in sight; and
2. accepted responsibility to follow or maintain their own separation with that aircraft.
NOTE: For paragraphs (d) and (e), the pilot in command of the aircraft is responsible for ensuring
that the spacing from a preceding aircraft of a heavier wake turbulence category is acceptable. If
it is determined that additional spacing is required, the flight crew may inform ATC accordingly,
stating their requirements.
5.2.2.6 No specific separation is applied on account of wake turbulence between an aircraft
landing behind an aircraft taking-off on the same runway.
5.2.2.7 Appropriate wake turbulence separation standards will be applied when an aircraft
taking-off behind a landing heavier weight category aircraft is expected to become airborne before
the touchdown point of the landing aircraft.
NOTE: Super, Heavy or Medium Wake Turbulence category aircraft may be operating at the base
and near the boundaries of controlled airspace. Aircraft operating in Class G airspace in the vicin-
ity of controlled airspace may be affected by wake turbulence from aircraft operating within con-
trolled airspace.
5.2.2.8 For aircraft in the Super or Heavy wake turbulence categories, the word “SUPER” or
“HEAVY” respectively must be included immediately after the aircraft call sign in the initial radio-
telephony contact between such aircraft and each approach, departure, director, ground and
tower controller.
5.2.3 Pilot Waivers
5.2.3.1 Pilots may, in VMC by day only, advise ATC that they wish the application of the depar-
ture standards to be waived. When a pilot so advises, this indicates to ATC that the pilot accepts
total responsibility for providing their own wake turbulence separation.
Waiving of these separation standards is not permitted when the aircraft concerned will follow a
Heavy or Super aircraft.
5.2.3.2 ATC is not permitted to ask pilots to accept waivers.
5.2.3.3 Since wake vortices are not visible, waivers against relevant separation standards
should only be initiated after careful consideration of prevailing atmospheric conditions and the
intended (or permissible) flight path relative to the leading aircraft. This is particularly important
when the following aircraft is a Light aircraft.
8 POSITION REPORTS
8.1 Except when identified, position reporting is mandatory when operating under IFR and must
normally be made at the positions or times notified on the flight notification. (For flights not operat-
ing along an ATS route, reporting points should be provided in Item 15 for locations approximately
30 minutes or 200 NM apart.)
8.2 The position report format is identified on METEOROLOGY — Meteorology Reports and
Advisories — APPENDIX 1 — Position Reports, AIREP Special and Volcanic Ash Reports.
8.3 When an aircraft is holding due to weather, ATS will nominate scheduled reporting times
which will normally be at 15 minute intervals.
8.4 IFR aircraft operating area-type flights and nominating schedules reporting times may limit
the report to level and the present position or the sector of the survey area in which the aircraft is
currently operating.
8.5 The position report format appears on METEOROLOGY — Meteorology Reports and Advi-
sories — APPENDIX 1 — Position Reports, AIREP Special and Volcanic Ash Reports. Section 2
of the report should only be transmitted when required by the operator or when deemed neces-
sary by the pilot. Section 3 of the report is required for the situations described in APPENDIX 1.
8.6 Aircraft operating area-type flights and nominating scheduled reporting times may limit the
report to “level” and the “present position” or the sector of the survey area in which the aircraft is
currently operating.
8.7 Pilots must give ATS notice of an impending position report by use of the word “POSITION”;
e.g., “MELBOURNE CENTER (call sign) POSITION”. Pilots must wait for the ATS instruction
before reporting position.
8.8 Pilots must report maintaining an assigned level, unless ATC has advised IDENTIFIED. An
IFR flight operating VFR-on-top or requesting IFR Pick-up must advise level maintaining.
8.9 After any frequency change, pilots must advise the last assigned level and, if not maintaining
the assigned level, the level maintaining or last vacated level.
NOTE: The “last vacated level” may be omitted by identified aircraft squawking pressure altitude
derived level information.

1.1 RADIO COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
1.1.1 The underpinning rule for all radio communication equipment requirements is that an air-
craft, in controlled or uncontrolled airspace, must have radio communication systems capable of:
a. collectively communicating on all frequencies necessary to meet the reporting, broadcast
and listening watch requirements under the civil aviation legislation, from any point on the
route of the flight, including in the event of any diversions; and
b. 2-way voice communications; and
c. communicating on the aeronautical emergency frequency 121.5 MHz.
1.1.2 Specific radio equipment carriage requirements (other rules discuss radio usage) are con-
tained in the following rules:
a. for sport and recreational aircraft operations — the applicable CAO.
b. for Part 121, 133 or 135 operations — section 11.08 of the respective CASR Part MOS.
c. for Part 131 operations — the requirements of CAO 95.53 and 95.54 apply.
d. for all other operations — sections 26.18 and 26.19 of the Part 91 MOS.
BOURNE CENTER (CALL SIGN) CLEARED FLIGHT LEVEL TWO ONE ZERO, LEAVING
FLIGHT LEVEL TWO NINER ZERO”.
NOTE: The “last vacated level” may be omitted by identified aircraft squawking pressure altitude
derived level information.
1.2.1.5 All aircraft departing, arriving or transiting an AFIS broadcast area during AFIS HRS
must make broadcasts prior to or as soon as possible after entering the broadcast area.
1.2.1.6 Pilots of aircraft engaged in parachute operations must broadcast their intentions on the
appropriate area VHF, and/or CTAF two (2) minutes prior to parachutists exiting the aircraft. In
addition, when operations are conducted in, or parachutists will enter, a Restricted Area or
Classes A, C or D airspace, a clearance to drop is required. Notification of clearance request
must be made at least five (5) minutes before the proposed exit.
1.2.1.7 Unless otherwise authorized, gliding operations in controlled airspace (including Class
E) must be conducted using the appropriate ATC frequency.
1.2.1.8 Pilots of IFR flights operating outside controlled airspace who desire to establish com-
munication with a non-ATS station and who will not be able to maintain a listening watch on the
ATS frequency must advise ATS of their further SAR requirements prior to making the frequency
change.
1.2.2 Prescribed Reports
a. where equipped — the aircraft displays its external lights, and its transponder is turned on;
and
b. if enroute — the pilot uses the overfly joining procedure (Refer to the graphic Recommended
Circuit Join in ATC — DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES).
1.2.3.3.3 A pilot may depart the airport with an unserviceable radio and fly to another airport for
repairs, provided that the aircraft – where equipped – displays its external lights and its trans-
ponder turned on.
1.2.3.3.4 To maximize the safety of commercial passenger transport operations, during a flight
to or from an airport for radio repairs, it is requested that pilots plan to avoid arriving or departing
from an airport during the known hours of scheduled air transport operations. For airports where
there is a UNICOM or CA/GRS, pilots should by alternative means where possible make contact
and advise their intentions before conducting operations.
1.2.3.3.5 An aircraft not equipped with an operative radio may operate at, or in the vicinity of, a
non-controlled certified or military airport provided that:
a. The aircraft is operated in VMC by day; and
b. The aircraft arrives or departs in the company of another radio-equipped aircraft that is flown
by a radio-qualified pilot which will allow the latter to make radio calls on behalf of both air-
craft.
NOTE: The radio-equipped aircraft should be maneuvered to keep the no-radio aircraft at a safe
distance and in sight at all times in order to accurately report its position.
1.2.3.4 Procedures to be adopted when total loss of radio occurs while in-flight and within Aus-
tralian Domestic airspace are contained in the Emergency section.
1.2.3.5 Procedures to be adopted when total loss of radio occurs while in-flight and within Aus-
tralian administered Oceanic airspace are as follows:
1.2.3.6 In the event of total loss of communication, an aircraft shall:
a. try to re-establish communication by all other means;
b. if all attempts to re-establish communication with ATC are unsuccessful:
1. Squawk 7600;
2. If able, broadcast in the blind at suitable intervals: aircraft identification, flight level, air-
craft position (including the ATS route designator or the track code), and intentions on
the frequency in use, as well as on frequency 121.5 MHz (or, as a back-up, the VHF
inter-pilot air-to-air frequency 123.45 MHz);
3. Watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to airborne collision avoid-
ance systems or traffic displays (if equipped);
4. Turn on all aircraft exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limitations);

5. Maintain the last assigned speed and level for a period of 60 minutes following the air-
craft’s failure to report its position over a compulsory reporting point (including ADS-C
flights), and thereafter adjust speed and altitude in accordance with the filed flight plan;
NOTE: In OCA, aircraft experiencing communication failure may also initiate Strategic
Lateral Offset Procedures (SLOP) in accordance with ATC — GENERAL FLIGHT PRO-
CEDURES, including an offset of up to 2 NM right of track.
6. Upon exiting OCA, conform to the relevant State procedures and regulations.
1.2.3.7 In the event of lost communication, ATC shall maintain separation between the aircraft
having the communication failure and other aircraft, based on the assumption that the aircraft
having the communication failure will operate in accordance with the procedures in the previous
paragraph.
2 COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES
2.1 RADIO FREQUENCIES
2.1.1 General
2.1.1.1 Air-ground communications in Australian FIRs are conducted by radio telephony in the
VHF, UHF and HF bands. Air-to-air communications are conducted in the VHF band. The require-
ments for carriage of radio communication systems are contained in paragraph 1.1. Frequencies
are published on applicable Enroute/Area and Terminal charts. VHF frequencies are published/
depicted on Jeppesen Terminal charts.
2.1.1.2 VHF is the primary frequency band, with HF only being used when outside VHF cover-
age. Area VHF frequencies and their estimated coverage are shown on Enroute/Area charts.
2.1.1.3 UHF is intended primarily for use with military aircraft. At some locations, re-transmit
facilities, which permit UHF and VHF aircraft to copy VHF/UHF transmissions conducted with a
common ATS unit, are installed.
2.1.2 HF — Domestic Operations
2.1.2.1 The National Aeronautical HF network appropriate to the area of operations is shown on
applicable Enroute/Area charts. In Trans-Continental and Oceanic Control Areas (TCTA/OCTA),
the ground organization may nominate the appropriate International Network to be used by air-
craft. For those operations outside VHF coverage, where the maintenance of a continuous two-
way communications watch with an airways operations unit is mandatory, the carriage of suitable
HF frequencies is required.
2.1.3 HF — International Operations
2.1.3.1 HF networks to be used in order of preference are:
a. the appropriate International Network (SEA-3, SP-6, INO-1); or
b. the national network for Domestic Operations.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 971

COMMUNICATIONS
c. Weather conditions and operational information for the aerodrome. The information which
may be advised includes:
1. runway favored by wind or for noise abatement,
2. runway surface conditions,
3. wind direction and speed,
4. visibility and present weather,
5. estimated cloud base,
6. aerodrome surface temperature, and
7. aerodrome QNH.
This information will be provided by means of an Automatic Aerodrome Information Service
(AAIS) broadcast on a discrete frequency (similar to ATIS) during OPR HR of CA/GRS or on
request to the CA/GRS operator. Pilots should monitor the published AAIS frequency before
making the taxiing or inbound broadcast, and indicate that the AAIS information has been
received when making the inbound or taxiing broadcast.
d. Other operational information of a local nature, relevant to the safety of operations at the aer-
odrome.
2.2.8 The CA/GRS will provide emergency services call-out if requested by the pilot in an emer-
gency or, if in the opinion of the operator, a call-out is warranted.
2.2.9 The weather information provided by the service is derived from approved measuring
equipment, which meets BoM aeronautical precision standards. QNH provided by a CA/GRS or
AAIS may be used to reduce landing, circling and alternate minima in accordance with the QNH
Sources paragraph in the Terminal section.
2.2.10 The CA/GRS operator may act as a representative of an air operator (where formal
agreement with the operator has been established) for the purposes of holding SARWATCH.
2.3 UNICOM
2.3.1 UNICOM (Universal Communications) is a non-ATS communications service provided to
enhance the value of information normally available about a non-controlled airport.
2.3.2 The primary function of the frequency used for UNICOM services where the UNICOM is
the CTAF is to provide pilots with the means to make standard positional broadcasts when oper-
ating in the vicinity of an aerodrome. Participation in UNICOM services must not inhibit the trans-
mission of standard positional broadcasts.
2.3.3 Participation in UNICOM services relates to the exchange of messages concerning:
a. fuel requirements;
b. estimated times of arrival and departure;
c. aerodrome information;
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 973
AUSTRALIA
COMMUNICATIONS
d. maintenance and servicing of aircraft including the ordering of parts and materials urgently
required;
e. passenger requirements;
f. unscheduled landings to be made by aircraft;
g. general weather reports; and
h. basic information on traffic.
2.3.4 This information is available to all aircraft during the times that the UNICOM is operating.
2.3.5 Weather reports, other than simple factual statements about the weather, may not be pro-
vided by UNICOM operators unless they hold an aviation weather observer qualification issued by
the Bureau of Meteorology.
2.3.6 The UNICOM operator is solely responsible for the accuracy of any information passed to
an aircraft, while the use of information obtained from a UNICOM is at the discretion of the pilot-
in-command.
2.3.7 Stations providing a UNICOM service are required to be licensed by the Australian Com-
munications and Media Authority (ACMA). Detailed information regarding the licensing and use of
equipment may be obtained by contacting the ACMA in the appropriate State or Territory capital
city.
2.3.8
5.2.5.2 If the aircraft is not equipped with latency monitor functionality, or the functionality is not
available, the pilot must still respond ‘ROGER’ and append the message ‘TIMER NOT AVAILA-
BLE’.
5.2.5.3 On receipt of a CPDLC indication that an uplink message has been delayed, the pilot
must not act on the delayed uplink message and must seek clarification from ATC via voice.
NOTE: Some aircraft systems will discard the delayed message without indication to the flight
crew and will automatically notify ATC of the network delay rejection.
5.2.5.4 When ATC receive an indication of a delayed uplink message, they will either:
a. resend the delayed CPDLC message;
b. contact the pilot via voice to clarify the situation; or
c. instruct the pilot to disregard the CPDLC message, disconnect CPDLC and continue com-
munication by voice.
5.2.5.5 When exiting Australian administered airspace, pilots should reset the latency time value
as appropriate to their company procedure, location and aircraft system.
5.3.6 When CPDLC is being used and the intent of the message is included in the CPDLC mes-
sage set contained in PANS-ATM (Doc 4444), Appendix 5 or ICAO Doc 10037 — Global Opera-
tional Data Link (GOLD) Manual (not published herein), the associated standard message ele-
ments must be used.
5.3.7 The use of free text message elements should be kept to a minimum. When the CPDLC
message set contained in the PANS-ATM (Doc 4444) or ICAO Doc 10037 — Global Operational
Data Link (GOLD) Manual (not published herein) does not provide for specific circumstances, the
free text message elements may be used. These free text message elements should be sorted for
selection within the aircraft system or ground system to facilitate their use.
5.3.8 To ensure correct synchronization of messages, dialogues initiated by voice must, when-
ever possible, be closed by voice. Dialogues opened by CPDLC must be closed by CPDLC.
5.3.9 To avoid ambiguity, a CPDLC downlink message should not contain more than one clear-
ance request.
5.3.10 If a CPDLC downlink message contains multiple clearance requests and not all of the
requested clearances are available, the controller will respond with the uplink message UNABLE.
The controller may subsequently uplink a separate CPDLC message containing any requested
clearances that are available.
5.3.11 If any ambiguity exists as to the intent of a CPDLC message, clarification must be sought
by voice.
5.3.12 A clearance issued by CPDLC requires only the appropriate CPDLC response, not a
readback as would be required if the clearance had been delivered by voice.
5.3.13 The downlink response WILCO indicates that the flight crew has accepted the full terms
of the entire uplink message including any clearance or instruction.
5.3.14 The downlink response UNABLE indicates that the flight crew is unable to accept the
uplinked clearance or instruction. The flight crew must continue to operate in accordance with the
most recently accepted clearance and/or instructions.
5.3.15 The use of the uplink STANDBY message element provides advice that the downlink
request is being assessed and a short-term delay of less than 10 minutes can be expected until a
response will be sent. The original message remains open.
5.3.16 The use of the uplink REQUEST DEFERRED message element provides advice that the
downlink request is being assessed and a longer-term delay of greater than 10 minutes can be
expected until a response will be sent. The original message remains open.
5.4.2 Brisbane ATC provides data link services in the Honiara and Nauru FIRs. The logon
address for the appropriate FIR is:
– Brisbane: YBBB
– Honiara: YBBB
– Nauru: YBBB
– Melbourne: YMMM
5.4.3 To avoid automatic rejection of the logon request:
a. the aircraft identification and the aircraft registration contained in the logon request must be
identical to the aircraft details filed in the flight plan; and
b. aircraft departing from airports either within Australia (YBBB or YMMM FIR) or the AGGG
and ANAU FIRs should not log on earlier than 45 minutes prior to the flight planned EOBT,
and
c. aircraft inbound to the YBBB, YMMM, AGGG or ANAU FIRs should not logon:
1. prior to departure; or
2. earlier than 45 minutes prior to the FIR boundary estimate.
5.4.4 Aircraft departing from airports either within Australia (YBBB or YMMM FIR) or the AGGG
and ANAU FIRs, requesting data link services, should logon as described below:
a. On the ground using the logon address for the FIR that the departure airport is located
within; or
b. Airborne at any time after passing 10,000 ft, using the logon address for the FIR in which the
aircraft is currently operating, with the following exceptions:
1. Aircraft approaching an FIR boundary should logon to the next ATS unit, rather than the
current ATS unit; and
2. Airborne aircraft departing Sydney/Bankstown/Richmond should logon in accordance
with the following table:
NOTE: The above table applies to logons from airborne aircraft only. Flight crews who logon while
on the ground at Sydney/Bankstown/Richmond must logon to YMMM.
5.4.5 When instructed to logon by voice, the flight crew must readback the logon code.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 981
AUSTRALIA
COMMUNICATIONS
5.4.6 Unless otherwise instructed, aircraft remaining wholly within East coast SSR Coverage are
not required to logon for data link services.
5.4.7 Flight crews of operators participating in PDC at Australian airports, must not initiate a
logon until after the PDC has been received.
5.4.8 Aircraft requesting data link services on entering the AGGG, ANAU, YBBB or YMMM FIRs
from a non-data link FIR should logon to the ATS appropriate unit between 15 and 45 minutes
prior to crossing the FIR boundary. CPDLC and ADS-C connections will be established automati-
cally by the ATS unit concerned.
5.4.9 For aircraft entering the AGGG, ANAU, YBBB or YMMM FIRs from a data link FIR, the
CPDLC connection will be either transferred automatically by the Address Forwarding process, or
the transferring ATS unit will instruct the flight crew to logon manually at an appropriate time / dis-
tance prior to the FIR boundary.
5.4.10 Aircraft transiting between YBBB and YMMM FIRs will be automatically Address Forwar-
ded to the appropriate ATS unit. Aircraft departing Australian airspace (or the AGGG and ANAU
FIRs) and directly entering an adjoining data link FIR can expect to be Address Forwarded to the
appropriate ATS unit prior to the FIR boundary.
5.6.2 Upon receipt of this CPDLC uplink, flight crews must ensure that the correct downlink
report is sent.
5.6.3 If no instruction to make a CPDLC report is received, the flight crew has no requirement to
report either maintaining the assigned level, or leaving the previously assigned level.
5.14.4 If an ADS–C report containing emergency mode is received by the ground system with-
out voice or CPDLC confirmation of an emergency situation, ATC will check for inadvertent activa-
tion of emergency mode by voice or CPDLC using the phraseology “CONFIRM ADS–C EMER-
GENCY”.
a. If the emergency mode has been inadvertently activated, the flight crew must respond by
voice or CPDLC using the phraseology “ADS–C RESET” and cancel the ADS–C emergency
mode.
b. ATC will assume an emergency situation exists if there is no confirmation that the activation
of emergency mode was inadvertent and ADS–C emergency reports are still being received.
5.14.5 When an emergency situation no longer exists, the flight crew should cancel the ADS–C
emergency mode (if activated).
6 RADIOTELEPHONY PROCEDURES
6.1 INTRODUCTION
6.1.1 The communication procedures, phraseologies and requirements contained in this section
have been selected to harmonize with ICAO and international practices, where applicable. Addi-
tional phrases to supplement where ICAO is silent have been included.
6.1.2 Primary reference documents on radiotelephony are ICAO Doc 4444, Doc 9432, and
Annex 10. ATS and pilots should refer to these documents to obtain additional information as nec-
essary. Only procedures appropriate to Australia and commonly used phrases are contained in
this section.
6.1.3 Use of standard phrases for radiotelephony communication between aircraft and ground
stations is essential to avoid misunderstanding the intent of messages and to reduce the time
required for communication.
6.1.4 Where circumstances warrant, and no phraseology is available, clear and concise plain
language should be used to indicate intentions.
6.1.5 Phraseologies contained in this section are generic, and, although primarily reflecting a
controlled airspace environment, pilots operating in Class “G” airspace should use these generic
phrases unless specific Class “G” phrases are shown.
6.7 LANGUAGE
6.7.1 English language must be used for all air-ground RTF communications within Australian
FIRs unless use of an alternative language has been arranged with ATS prior to any specific
flight.
NOTE: The syllables printed in capital letters in the above list are to be stressed.
6.10.2 Flight levels should be transmitted by pronouncing each digit separately except for the
case of flight levels in whole hundreds, which should be transmitted by pronouncing the digit of
the whole hundred followed by the word HUNDRED.
6.10.3 The altimeter setting should be transmitted by pronouncing each digit separately except
for the case of a setting of 1,000HPA which must be transmitted as ONE THOUSAND.

6.10.4 All numbers used in the transmission of transponder codes should be transmitted by pro-
nouncing each digit separately except that transponder code containing whole thousands should
be transmitted by pronouncing the digit in the number of thousands followed by the word THOU-
SAND.
6.10.5 All numbers used in the transmission of altitude, cloud height, visibility and RVR, which
contain whole hundreds and whole thousands, should be transmitted by pronouncing each digit in
the number of hundreds or thousands followed by the word HUNDRED or THOUSAND as appro-
priate. Combinations of thousands and whole hundreds should be transmitted by pronouncing
each digit in the number of thousands followed by the word THOUSAND followed by the number
of hundreds followed by the word HUNDRED.
6.10.6 When providing information regarding relative bearing in terms of the 12-hour clock, the
information should be transmitted by pronouncing the double digits as TEN, ELEVEN, or
TWELVE [O'CLOCK].
6.10.7 Numbers containing a decimal point should be transmitted with the decimal point in
appropriate sequence being indicated by the word DECIMAL.

6.13.3 Pilots and ATS should be aware that the preference to use “group form” does not invalid-
ate any transmissions made in conventional formats. However, to retain the integrity in the com-
munication between ATS and operators, the identification format used should be consistent.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 992
AUSTRALIA
COMMUNICATIONS
6.13.4 A pilot not using “group form” in establishing communication, but subsequently
addressed by ATS in this format, should adopt the use of “group form” for the remainder of the
flight in Australian airspace.
6.13.5 There is no additional abbreviated form when using flight number call signs. The airline
designator and all digits of the call sign, including leading zeros, must be pronounced.
b. the telephony designator of the aircraft operating agency, followed by at least the last 2 char-
acters of the registration marking (eg “UNITED TWENTY SIX”).
NOTE: For flight planning, all call signs are limited to 7 characters.
6.18.4 In addition to the requirements of 6.18.1 to 6.18.3, the prefix “HELICOPTER” must be
used by rotary wing aircraft when first establishing 2-way communications on any frequency (eg
VH-WSO “HELICOPTER WHISKEY SIERRA OSCAR”).
6.18.5 Civil formation flights of Australian registered aircraft may use the suffix “FORMATION”
after one of the following call signs:
a. the registration of the formation leader e.g., “ALPHA BRAVO CHARLIE FORMATION”; or
b. the approved telephony designator of the formation leader, with or without an alpha or
numeric, e.g., “JETSPEED FORMATION” or “JETSPEED ONE FORMATION” or “JET-
SPEED BRAVO FORMATION”.
7 PHRASEOLOGIES
7.1 GENERAL
7.1.1 Symbols and Parentheses
7.1.1.1 Words in parentheses “( )” indicate that specific information, such as a level, a place, a

used. Words in brackets “[ ]” indicate optional additional words or information that may be neces-
sary in specific instances.
7.1.1.2 The following symbols indicate phraseologies which may differ from those used in an
international aviation environment, but are necessitated by Australian requirements.
7.1.2 Phraseologies show the text of message components without call signs. They are not
intended to be exhaustive, and when circumstances differ, pilots, ATS and Air Defence personnel,
and other ground personnel will be expected to use appropriate subsidiary phraseologies which
should be clear, concise, and designed to avoid any possible confusion.
7.1.3 For convenience, the phraseologies are grouped according to types of air traffic service.
However, users should be familiar with, and use as necessary, phraseologies from groups other
than those referring specifically to the type of air traffic service being provided. All phraseologies
must be used in conjunction with call signs (aircraft, ground vehicle, ATC or other) as appropriate.
7.1.4 Phraseologies for the movement of vehicles are not listed separately as the phraseology
associated with the movement of aircraft is applicable. The exception is for taxi instructions, in
which case the word “PROCEED” shall be substituted for the word “TAXI” when communicating
with vehicles.

2 IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURES
2.1 Before exercising an ATS surveillance there will be positive identification of the aircraft con-
cerned. Control services will not be provided until the aircraft is within controlled airspace.
3 VECTORING PROCEDURES
3.1 On receipt of heading instructions, the pilot must, unless otherwise instructed, immediately
commence a rate 1 turn, or the standard rate of turn for the aircraft type, and then maintain the
heading given.
3.2 Aircraft will normally be vectored on routes along which the pilot can monitor navigation.
3.3 ATC are not permitted to vector Special VFR flights, unless warranted by emergency condi-
tions.
3.4 When an aircraft is given a vector which will take it off an established route, the pilot will be
advised of the reason for the vector unless it is self-evident.
3.5 When an aircraft reports unreliable directional instruments, the pilot will be requested, prior
to the issuance of maneuvering instructions, to make all turns at an agreed rate and to carry out
the instructions immediately on receipt.
3.6 When aircraft are being vectored, the controller will assign altitudes which allow for terrain
clearance. However, in VMC by day an aircraft may be permitted to arrange its own terrain clear-
ance. In such instances, the aircraft will be instructed to [TURN LEFT (or RIGHT) HEADING
(heading)] [CLIMB (or DESCEND) TO (level)] VISUAL.
3.7 Pilots being vectored will be routinely advised of their position to enable pilot navigation in
the event of communication or ATS surveillance system failure.
3.8 The interval between ATC transmissions will be kept short to enable the pilot to quickly rec-
ognize a communication failure. When aircraft are on headings that could infringe terrain clear-
ance or separation standards, the interval between transmissions will not exceed 30 seconds.
3.9 Before take-off ATC may assign a heading for a departing aircraft to assume after take-off,
followed by frequency change instructions if appropriate. Headings, other than those assigned for
a radar SID, will only be issued for a visual departure by day.
3.10 Arriving aircraft may be vectored to:
a. establish for a radar or pilot-interpreted approach;
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1059
AUSTRALIA
ATS SURVEILLANCE SERVICES AND PROCEDURES
c. provided with a track clearance direct to an RNAV way-point to intercept the nominated track
(for an RNAV or RNP approved aircraft).
3.18 Position information will be passed to aircraft in one of the following forms:
a. a bearing and distance (using points of the compass) from the airport reference point, a navi-
gation aid, or a known position;
b. a heading and distance to the appropriate reporting point, enroute navigation aid, or
approach aid;
c. over a well known geographical position;
d. a distance to the runway touchdown (as track miles to run).
3.19 An aircraft under ATS surveillance service control will be advised of its position in the fol-
lowing circumstances:
a. on identification, unless the identification is established:
1. based on the pilot’s report of the aircraft position, or within 1 NM of the runway on
departure, if the observed position on the situation display is consistent with the air-
craft’s time of departure; or
2. by use of ADS-B aircraft identification, SSR Mode S aircraft identification or assigned
discrete SSR codes if the location of the observed position indication is consistent with
the current flight plan of the aircraft; or
3. by transfer of identification;
b. when the pilot requests this information;
c. when the pilot’s estimate differs significantly from the controller’s estimate based on the
observed position;
d. when the pilot is instructed to resume own navigation after vectoring if the current instruc-
tions had diverted the aircraft from a previously assigned route;
e. immediately before termination of ATS surveillance service, if the aircraft is observed to devi-
ate from its intended route.
f. as soon, after first contact with approach radar control, as a distance to run to touchdown
becomes evident;
g. when a regular circuit pattern is used to vector on to the final approach path (at least once on
each leg);
h. when a straight-in approach is provided.
4.2 If an aircraft is likely to be a hazard to controlled aircraft receiving an ATS surveillance serv-
ice, the controller will take appropriate action to preserve the safety of the controlled aircraft.
4.3 Where there is an ATS surveillance service in non-controlled airspace, identified IFR aircraft
and VFR aircraft receiving a SIS will be provided with traffic information about known conflicting
aircraft, unless it is impracticable. If requested by the pilot and if possible, a course of avoiding
action will be suggested.
4.4 Traffic information in respect of an unidentified aircraft will normally take the following form:
a. relative position of the unidentified aircraft to aircraft track in terms of the 12 hour clock
except that, if the identified aircraft is turning, relative position will be specified by reference
to compass points;
b. distance from the unidentified aircraft in miles;
c. direction in which the unidentified aircraft appears to be proceeding.
6 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
(See EMERGENCY Section)
7 AIRCRAFT TRANSPONDER
7.1 OPERATION OF SSR TRANSPONDERS
7.1.1 Except as indicated below, ATS will assign a temporary discrete code for each flight sector
for aircraft operating in controlled airspace, and for aircraft participating in Surveillance Informa-
tion Service (SIS).
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1062
AUSTRALIA
ATS SURVEILLANCE SERVICES AND PROCEDURES
7.1.2 Unless advised otherwise by ATC, pilots of Mode 3A or Mode S transponder-equipped air-
craft operating in Australian airspace must activate their transponders, and where a Mode C
capability is also available it must be activated simultaneously with Mode 3A.
NOTE: Pilots must ensure that transponders and ADS-B transmitters are activated and the alti-
tude function is selected, as:
a. primary radar coverage only exists within 50 NM of major airports and the remainder of the
ATS surveillance system relies on SSR transponder and ADS-B transmitter information; and
b. TCAS relies on transponder information for its pilot alerting and collision avoidance func-
tions.
7.1.3 Consistent with ICAO Regional (Asia & Pacific – APAC) SSR code management code
continuity objectives, Australia's ATM system has been configured to maximize retention of the
discrete code assigned on departure to international flights inbound to, or over flying, Australia.
This retention normally relies on code assignment notified via the DEP message, and is princi-
pally enabled for departures from other APAC Region States. When a departure or other code
assigned to a flight cannot be retained in Australian airspace, pilots will be assigned a new SSR
code. ATC procedures may also require that pilots be asked to squawk the code being retained.
7.1.4 When operating in Australian airspace, or on reaching the Australian FIR boundary if
inbound to Australia, pilots of Mode 3A transponder equipped aircraft must squawk the assigned
temporary discrete code for that flight sector, or if not assigned a temporary discrete code, the
appropriate non-discrete code from the following listing, unless advised otherwise by ATS:
a. Civil flights in classes A, C and D airspace, or IFR flights in Class E airspace — 3000.
b. Civil IFR flights in Class G airspace — 2000.
c. Civil VFR flights in classes E or G airspace — 1200.
d. Military flights in classes A, C, D or E airspace — 5000.
e. Military flights in Class G airspace — 6000.
f. Civil flights in Class G over water at a distance greater than 15 NM from shore — 4000.
g. Civil flights engaged in littoral surveillance — 7615.
h. Ground testing by aircraft maintenance staff — 2100.
i. Flights operating at aerodromes (in lieu of a., b., or c. when assigned by ATC) — 0100.
j. RPAS in all classes of airspace and when instructed to enable transponder — 7000.
7.1.5 Pilots of flights which will require a SIS and/or a clearance into controlled airspace, and for
which a discrete code has already been coordinated, must select that code immediately prior to
making the SIS/clearance request.
7.1.6 A pilot must not operate the identification function (SPI) unless requested by ATC.
7.1.7 Flights assigned a temporary discrete SSR code by ATS must squawk that code until ter-
mination of the flight sector, unless advised otherwise by ATS. If not assigned a discrete code, the
appropriate generic code must be used.

ATS SURVEILLANCE SERVICES AND PROCEDURES
7.1.8 A pilot operating a Mode 3A/C transponder at a radar controlled aerodrome must:
a. on departure, leave the transponder selected to STANDBY until entering the departure
runway; and
b. on arrival, select the transponder to STANDBY or OFF as soon as practicable after landing.
7.1.9 A pilot operating a Mode S transponder must:
a. Enter the aircraft’s identification that corresponds exactly to the Aircraft Identification shown
in Item 7 of the flight notification filed with air traffic control for the flight for those aircraft that
are capable of reporting Aircraft Identification. The ICAO defined format for entry of the Air-
craft Identification shall be used except for domestic operations when VH is not to be entered
on the flight notification. (e.g. VOZ123D, REX638, QFA842, VHQFO (international), FDA...)
b. On receipt of ATC clearance, or requesting the earlier of Push Back or Taxi, select TA/RA/
XPDR/ON AUTO as applicable.
NOTE 1: If AUTO mode is not available Select ON (e.g. XPDR) and assigned Mode A code.
NOTE 2: Australia does not require TA/RA to be de-selected while aircraft is on ground.
c. When parked and shutting down engines, select STANDBY.
d. For Mode S equipped aircraft taxiing without flight plan, the appropriate Mode A code
according to para 7.1.4 should be selected and the aircraft identification entered exactly as
the callsign used in flight.
7.1.10 Pilots must select the transponder to STANDBY before effecting an SSR code change
and returning the transponder to ON/ALT.
NOTE: This action is required to prevent possible loss of displayed aircraft position / label infor-
mation and possible misidentification of aircraft in automated Australian ATC systems due to tem-
porary selection (while effecting the change) of a code already in use.
7.1.11 When acknowledging code setting instructions or changes to settings, the pilot must read
back the code to be set.
7.1.12 To facilitate harmonization with the air traffic management systems used in the FIRs of
adjacent ICAO states (other than the Mauritius FIR), ATC will allocate civil international flights a
discrete code from Australia’s ICAO international reservation for use from the time of their depar-
ture.
7.1.13 Unless instructed otherwise by ATS, pilots of military international flights are required to
set code 5000 before departure from an Australian airport.
8.2 Aircraft equipped with a Mode S transponder having an aircraft identification feature shall
transmit the aircraft identification as specified in Item 7 of the flight notification or, when no flight
notification has been filed, the aircraft registration.
1 GLIDING OPERATIONS
1.1 GENERAL
1.1.1 For rules relating to gliding operations refer to the CAO 95.4, CAO 95.4.1 and CAO 95.8.
1.1.2 Pilots should take extra care when operating at an airport where gliding operations are in
progress. Gliding operations are indicated by the “gliding operations in progress” ground signal
displayed next to the primary wind direction indicator. Pilots should also establish whether the
gliders are being launched by wire or aerotow, or both.
1.1.3 Where aerotowing is in progress, pilots should remain well clear of gliders under tow. If
wire launching is used, pilots should establish the locations of the winch or tow car and the cable,
and remain well clear. Overflying the runway below 2000 ft AGL is not advised, nor is landing
without first ascertaining that the cable is on the ground and not across the landing path. Aerotow
and winch launching are possible up to 4000 ft AGL but launches to 1500 ft or 2000 ft AGL are
normal.
1.1.4 In Class G airspace, gliders may be operating no-radio on Area VHF or on frequencies
122.5, 122.7 or 122.9 MHz. Radio-equipped gliders at, or in the vicinity of, non-controlled airports
make broadcasts in accordance with the table in ATC — DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LAND-
ING PROCEDURES — Recommended Calls.
1.2.5 Except for gliders approaching to land, powered aircraft have priority in the use of run-
ways, taxiways and aprons where a single runway or dual runway operation is established.
1.2.6 At the locations where parallel runways exist and contra-circuit procedures apply, opera-
tions on the two parallel runways by aircraft below 5700kg MTOW may be conducted independ-
ently in VMC by day. Aircraft must not operate within the opposing circuit area below 1500 ft AGL.
Pilots should ascertain the runways in use as early as possible and conform to that circuit. A
crossing runway should only be used when operationally necessary, and traffic using the crossing
runway should avoid conflicting with the established circuit.
1.2.7 At airports other than for which contra-circuits are prescribed, gliders are generally
required to conform to the established circuit direction. However, unforeseen circumstances may
occasionally compel a glider to execute a non-standard pattern, including use of the opposite cir-
cuit direction in extreme cases.
1.2.8 A listening watch on the appropriate VHF frequency must be maintained while operating at
or in the vicinity of non-controlled airports by the tug pilot. The winch or tow-vehicle driver should
also maintain a listening watch during wire launching. The tug pilot or winch/car driver may be
able to advise glider traffic information to inbound or taxiing aircraft.
NOTE: The appropriate VHF frequency is as detailed in the table in ATC — DEPARTURE,
APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES — Operations in Class G Airspace — Communica-
tions.
1.2.9 Where wire launching is used, launching will cease and the wire will be retracted or moved
off the strip when another aircraft joins the circuit or is taxiing, or a radio call is received indicating
this. A white strobe light is displayed by a winch, or a yellow rotating beacon by a tow-car or asso-
ciated vehicle, whenever the cable is deployed.
1.2.10
2 POLICE OPERATIONS
2.1 An aircraft operated by police authorities which requires priority in situations where life is
threatened must use the call sign “POLAIR RED” or “FEDPOL RED”. Police must call “POLAIR/
FEDPOL RED PRIORITY” on first contact.
3 BALLOON OPERATIONS
3.1 GENERAL
3.1.1 Part 131 aircraft are permitted to operate in recreational, specialized balloon operations,
commercial balloon flying training and balloon transport operations. Commercial balloon flying
training and balloon transport operations are flown under an Air Operator Certificate (AOC) — the
pilot in command holds a commercial pilot (balloon) license and is responsible to a chief pilot or
head of flying operations. Recreational operations are conducted by pilots who hold a pilot certifi-
cate issued by the Australian Balloon Federation Inc.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1067
AUSTRALIA
SPECIAL OPERATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS
3.1.2 Unless permitted by CASA, pilots of Part 131 aircraft engaged in recreational activities
must not operate:
a. in controlled airspace;
b. below 2000 ft above airport level within 3 NM of a certified airport; or
c. below 1000 ft above ground level over a populous area.
NOTE: Permission to fly in these areas, either for a specified event, or for suitably qualified pilots,
may be sought from CASA. When permissions are issued, they usually contain directions to oper-
ate in the same manner as Part 131 aircraft conducting balloon transport operations.
3.1.3 Pilots engaged in commercial balloon flying training or balloon transport operations may:
a. operate within controlled airspace subject to an ATC clearance;
b. operate from certified airports; and
c. take-off from, and land at, adequate open spaces within populous areas. When doing this,
they must ensure that the Part 131 aircraft reaches the minimum overflight height of 1000 ft
AGL within a reasonable time following take-off, and minimize the time spent flying at low
level while approaching to land in or within 300m of a populous area.
3.1.4 Part 131 aircraft pilots are not required to observe a minimum height while flying over
other than populous areas. However, this does not absolve pilots from any responsibility in
respect of landholders, stock or property. The Australian Ballooning Federation Inc maintains a
register of sensitive areas where landholders have requested that pilots not land, or observe a
minimum overflight height.
d. at night.
3.2.4 The holder of a private pilot certificate issued by the Australian Ballooning Federation Inc
may have that certificate endorsed to permit radio communication on VHF frequencies only, with-
out being the holder of a flight radio telephone operator license.
NOTE 1: Subject to ATC clearance, operation under the special VFR may be available within a
control zone. See ATC — GENERAL FLIGHT PROCEDURES paragraph 4.2.1.1.
NOTE 2: Refer to Regulation 91.285 for restrictions on VFR flight in Class A airspace.

11.3 Aircraft using LJR may be camouflaged and emit little or no smoke trail, although they will
normally show anti-collision beacons. They may operate singly or in close or loose formation. Sig-
nificant wake turbulence and a large turn radius may be expected.
11.4 All LJR aircraft are equipped with UHF and some also have VHF and HF. However, they
may often be out of communications (NOCOM) for part of their flight. Although most LJR aircraft
are radar equipped, these radars do not enable avoidance of conflicting aircraft.
11.5 WHERE POSSIBLE, PILOTS SHOULD PLAN THEIR FLIGHTS TO AVOID ACTIVE LJR.
11.6 The following LJR are activated HJ and are flown by F18 aircraft operating at or below
5000 ft AGL:
a. YB(R)-638 – 10 NM SSW Baryulgil below 3000 ft AGL – Gatton (Climb Point) – Amberley.
b. YB(R)-638 – Coastal below 3000 ft AGL – Gold Coast – Point Lookout (Stradbroke Island) –

NOTE: A number of other LJR and Defence activities are in operation at various times in
addition to those shown above and will be advised by NOTAM when necessary.
12 SECURITY AWARENESS
12.1 All members of the aviation industry, including general aviation, charter, crop duster, heli-
copter and local airport operators should be particularly vigilant with regard to any suspicious
activity relating to the use, training in, or acquisition of dangerous chemicals, including threats,
unusual purchases, and/or unusual contacts with the public.
12.2 Any suspicious circumstances or unusual behavior should be immediately reported to the
police and the relevant aircraft, airline, or airport operator.
13 FIRE OPERATIONS
13.1 An aircraft operated by fire authorities which requires priority should notify the flight as Fire
or Flood Relief (FFR) and use the appropriate special task call sign as per ATC — COMMUNICA-
TIONS — Call Signs — Special Task Operations.
NOTE: The flight notification requirements are also contained in ATC — FLIGHT PLANNING –
Flight Notification.
15.2 TAXIING
15.2.1 For all helicopters, maximum use of the “air transit” procedure should be made to expe-
dite traffic movement and flow about an airport.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1086
AUSTRALIA
SPECIAL OPERATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS
15.2.2 All helicopters may use “air taxiing” procedures as required. However, wheeled helicop-
ters, where practicable, are encouraged to “ground taxi” on prepared surfaces to minimize rotor
wash and its effects.
15.2.3 At night a helicopter should not taxi via routes which do not meet the physical dimensions
and lighting requirements specified in AC 139.R-01.
15.5 ARRIVALS
15.5.1 Controlled Airports
15.5.1.1 Prescribed entry “gates” and associated standard routes and/or altitudes may be provi-
ded to facilitate the flow of helicopter traffic. Use of these “gates” is not mandatory. Subject to the
receipt of an ATC clearance, helicopters may, if required, conform to the standard traffic proce-
dures applicable to airplanes. This option may be more appropriate when operating larger heli-
copters.
15.5.1.2 At locations within controlled airspace, helicopters may be granted a landing clearance
or be instructed to report on the ground, as appropriate, at any area nominated by ATC or the
pilot, and assessed by the pilot as being suitable as a HLS.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1088
AUSTRALIA
SPECIAL OPERATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS
15.5.1.3 Unless requested by the pilot, a landing clearance will not be issued for a helicopter if
the tailwind component exceeds 5 kt.
15.5.1.4 At night a helicopter should not land at a site other than one which conforms with the
requirements specified in the latest issue of AC 139.R-01. Any illuminated runway or illuminated
taxiway of dimensions commensurate with the size of the HLS applicable to the helicopter, in
accordance with AC 139.R-01, is considered to meet the requirements of AC 139.R-01.
15.5.2 Non-Controlled Airports
15.5.2.1 In VMC by day applicable to the aircraft category, helicopters need not join the circuit
via standard airplane entry procedures, at the pilot’s discretion.
15.5.2.2 As an alternative, under such conditions, helicopters may join the circuit area at 500 ft
AGL from any direction, subject to the normal restrictions of flight over populous areas.
15.5.2.3 Helicopters must avoid other circuit traffic and descend to land at any location
assessed by the pilot as being suitable for use as a HLS, provided:
a. the intended landing point is located outside the flight strip of the runway in use;
b. the final approach is clear of the extended centerline of the runway in use;
c. post-landing positioning of the helicopter is by air transit or by taxiing, as appropriate.
15.5.3 Pilots of radio-equipped helicopters must broadcast intentions on the appropriate fre-
quency as specified in ATC — DEPARTURE, APPROACH AND LANDING PROCEDURES —
Radio Telephony Requirements Outside Controlled Airspace.
strip of the runway in use so that helicopter circuit traffic does not cross the extended center-
line of that runway;
b. if the procedure outlined in a. above is not practicable, the helicopter circuit patterns should
be flown inside and parallel to the airplane traffic and at lower altitudes, but not below 500 ft
above the airport elevation. The landing site associated with the helicopter circuit is to be
positioned outside the flight strip of the runway in use so that helicopter circuit traffic does
not cross the extended centerline of that runway; or
c. the helicopter is to follow the standard airplane traffic pattern and, in this case, may use the
flight strip area of the runway in use;
d. the pilots of radio equipped helicopters must broadcast their intentions and listen out for
other traffic on the appropriate frequency.
f. use means as appropriate (i.e. voice and/or CPDLC) to communicate during a contingency
or emergency;
NOTE 1: When emergency situations are communicated via CPDLC, the controller may
respond via CPDLC. However, the controller may also attempt to make voice contact with
the aircraft.
NOTE 2: Guidance on emergency procedures for controllers, radio operators, and flight crew
in data link operations can be found in the Global Operational Data Link (GOLD) Manual
(Doc 10037) (not published herein).
g. if voice communication is used, use the radiotelephony distress signal (MAYDAY) or urgency
signal (PAN PAN) preferably spoken three times, as appropriate; and
h. establish communications with and alert nearby aircraft by broadcasting at suitable intervals
on the frequency in use and on 121.5 MHz (or, as a backup, on the inter-pilot air-to-air fre-
quency 123.45 MHz):
1. aircraft identification;
2. flight level;
3. position including the ATS route designator or the track code, as appropriate;
4. the nature of the distress condition; and
5. intentions.
NOTE: ATC will attempt to determine the nature of the emergency and ascertain any assistance
that may be required. Subsequent ATC action with respect to that aircraft will be based on the
intentions of the pilot and overall traffic situation.
NOTE 1: Flight levels normally used are those contained in ATC — CLIMB AND CRUISE —
Tables of Cruising Levels.
NOTE 2: Descent below FL290 is considered particularly applicable to operations where
there is a predominant traffic flow (e.g. east-west) or parallel track system where the air-
craft’s diversion path will likely cross adjacent tracks or ATS routes. A descent below FL290
can decrease the likelihood of conflict with other aircraft, ACAS RA events and delays in
obtaining a revised ATC clearance.
b. establish a 500 FT vertical offset (or 1000 FT vertical offset if above FL410) from those flight
levels normally used, and proceed as required by the operational situation, or if an ATC
clearance has been obtained, in accordance with the clearance.
NOTE: Altimetry System Errors (ASE) may result in less than 500 FT vertical spacing (less
than 1000 FT above FL410) when the above contingency procedure is applied.
g. If the pilot receives clearance to deviate from cleared track or ATS route for a specified dis-
tance and, subsequently, requests, but cannot obtain a clearance to deviate beyond that dis-
tance, the pilot should apply an altitude offset in accordance with the table above before
deviating beyond the cleared distance;
h. When returning to track or ATS route, be at its assigned flight level when the aircraft is within
approximately 5 NM of the centerline; and
i. If contact was not established prior to deviating, continue to attempt to contact ATC to obtain
a clearance. If contact was established, continue to keep ATC advised of intentions and
obtain traffic information.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1094
AUSTRALIA
CONTINGENCY PROCEDURES
NOTE: If, as a result of actions taken under the provisions of this paragraph, the pilot determines
that there is another aircraft at or near the same flight level with which a conflict may occur, then
the pilot is expected to adjust the path of the aircraft, as necessary, to avoid conflict.

6 INVESTIGATION
The transport safety investigator of an IRM or an RRM has the capacity to obtain such information
as is necessary to conduct the investigation through the powers delegated to the investigator
under Part 5 of the TSI Act. However, the investigator will always seek, where possible, to obtain
information in cooperation with an owner or occupier. Copies of flight plans, logs and briefing
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1106
AUSTRALIA
AIR TRAFFIC INCIDENTS
documents should be retained by the pilot for 14 days after a flight in case they may be required
by the investigator.
6.2 Section 24 of the TSI Act makes a person guilty of an offence for reckless conduct that
adversely affects an investigation. For an IRM, this may be conduct that occurs before the investi-
gation is commenced. The offence does not apply if the conduct is authorised by the Executive
Director of the ATSB or a delegate, or if the conduct was necessary to:
a. ensure the safety of persons, animals or property; or
b. remove deceased persons or animals from an accident site; or
c. move or transport vehicle, or the wreckage of a transport vehicle, to a safe place; or
d. protect the environment from significant damage or pollution.
Under Section 43 of the TSI Act, for the purpose of protecting evidence that might be relevant to
an investigation, the Chief Commissioner of the ATSB may impose a ‘Protection Order’ directing
that specified things must not be removed or interfered with except with permission, for example,
aircraft wreckage, maintenance records or cockpit voice recorders. Where such evidence is under
a ‘Protection Order’, the removal or interference with that evidence is an offense. However, the
same exceptions listed above for Section 24 apply to ‘Protection Orders’.

FLIGHT PROCEDURES
HOLDING
Holding procedures comply with Jeppesen ATC Chapter “Flight Procedures (DOC 8168) – Hold-
ing Procedures,” Table IV-1-1, Holding Speeds.
NOTE: The first track of a GNSS procedure must be joined using the tracking guidance
provided by the GPS receiver.
2. in controlled airspace, the aircraft is being vectored to intercept the initial approach seg-
ment or is tracking direct to the intermediate fix.
NOTE: “direct to” clearances may be requested to the intermediate fix (IF) provided that
the resultant track change at the IF does not exceed 45°.
Visual Approach Requirements for IFR Flights
A pilot conducting a visual approach in controlled airspace may be assigned the responsibility to
follow another arriving aircraft which they have reported sighting. When assigned this responsibil-
ity, the pilot must maintain separation from and not overtake that aircraft. In this circumstance, the
pilot is also responsible for providing their own wake turbulence separation. If sighting is subse-
quently lost, advise ATC immediately.
A pilot in command operating under the IFR in controlled airspace must be satisfied that the visual
approach requirements listed below can be met before requesting a visual approach from ATC.
The pilot must report ‘VISUAL’ to signify that these requirements can be met and maintained as
part of any request to ATC for a visual approach.
A pilot who is unable to continue a visual approach which has been authorized by ATC must
immediately advise ATC.
When conducting a visual approach in controlled airspace, a pilot in command must not climb
above an altitude reported to ATC as having been reached or left, unless authorized to do so.
Subject to the requirements for Visual Circling, Visual Segments and Missed Approach Proce-
dures, the pilot need not commence or may discontinue the approved instrument approach proce-
dure to an airport when:
a. By Day — Within 30 NM of the airport at an altitude not below the LSALT/MSA for the route
segment, the appropriate step of the DME or GNSS Arrival Procedure, or the MDA for the
procedure being flown and the aircraft is established:
1. clear of cloud;
2. in sight of ground or water;
3. with a flight visibility not less than 5,000m or, in the case of a helicopter, is able to pro-
ceed under helicopter VMC, or the airport is in sight; and
4. subsequently can maintain (1), (2) and (3) at an altitude not less than
(a) if in controlled airspace — 500 ft above the lower limit of the CTA unless a clear-
ance is received from ATC to depart and re-enter controlled airspace during the
descent; and
(b) the minimum height prescribed by CASR 91.265 or 91.267 as relevant to the loca-
tion of the aircraft.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1110
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
b. By Night — At an altitude not below the LSALT/MSA for the route segment, the appropriate
step of the DME or GNSS Arrival Procedure, or the MDA for the procedure being flown, the
aircraft is established:
1. clear of cloud;
2. in sight of ground or water;
3. with a flight visibility not less than 5000m; and
4. subsequently can maintain (1), (2) and (3) at an altitude not less than:
(a) in controlled airspace — 500 ft above the lower limit of the CTA unless a clearance
is received from ATC to depart and re-enter controlled airspace during descent;
and
(b) one of the following:
– route segment LSALT/MSA; or
– the appropriate step of the DME/GNSS Arrival procedure, or
– if being vectored — the last assigned altitude.
until the aircraft is:
– for an airport with an authorized instrument approach procedure that the flight
crew members of the aircraft are capable of using — within the prescribed cir-
cling area for the category of aircraft or a higher category, where the limitations
of the higher category are complied with, or VAA-H, as applicable and the air-
port is in sight; or
– for an airport without an authorized instrument approach procedure that the
flight crew members of the aircraft are capable of using — within 3 NM of the
airport reference point, and the airport is in sight; or
– within 5 NM (7 NM for a runway equipped with an ILS/ GLS) of the airport,
aligned with the runway centerline and established not below “on slope” on the
T-VASIS or PAPI; or
– within 10 NM (14 NM for Runways 16L and 34L at Sydney) of the airport, estab-
lished not below the ILS/GLS glide path with less than full scale azimuth deflec-
tion.
NOTE: Reference to circling area in this section includes the circling area for the category of
aircraft or a higher category where the limitations of the higher category are complied with.
c. If in controlled airspace:
1. a clearance is received from ATC to conduct a visual approach; and
2. when tracking via a STAR and subsequently cleared for visual approach, the pilot con-
tinues to follow the lateral profile of the STAR, including any visual or instrument termi-
nation route; and
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1111
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
3. except when on a STAR, the pilot maintains track/heading on the route progressively
authorized by ATC until:
(a) by day, within 5 NM of the airport; or
(b) by night, the airport is in sight and the aircraft is within:
– the prescribed circling area for an IFR flight; or
– 3 NM of the airport reference point for a VFR flight; and
NOTE: ATC will provide directions to the aircraft regarding how to join the circuit for the nom-
inated runway from these positions.
Visual Circling or During Non-precision Approach (NPA)
During visual circling or during a NPA, descent below MDA may only occur when the pilot:
a. maintains the aircraft within the circling area; and
b. maintains a visibility, along the intended flight path, not less than the minimum specified on
the chart for the procedure;
c. maintains visual contact with the landing runway environment (i.e. the runway threshold or
approach lighting or other markings identifiable with the runway); and either
d. by night or day, while complying with a., b. and c. and from a position within the circling area
on the downwind, base or final leg of the landing traffic pattern at an altitude not less than
the MDA, can complete a continuous descent to the landing threshold using rates of descent
and flight maneuvers which are normal for the aircraft type and, during this descent, main-
tains an obstacle clearance along the flight path not less than the minimum for the aircraft
performance category until the aircraft is aligned with the landing runway; or
e. in daylight only, while complying with a., b. and c., maintains visual contact with obstacles
along the intended flight path and an obstacle clearance not less than the minimum for the
aircraft performance category until the aircraft is aligned with the landing runway.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1112
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Where the forecast area QNH is used, the minima used must be increased by 50 ft.
Jeppesen charted minimums are not below State minimums.
Airport Operating Minima (AOM)
Operators must establish AOM for each airport to be used for operations. After consideration of
the factors listed below, operators may determine that their AOM should be higher than the pub-
lished landing minima:
a. The type, performance and handling characteristics of the airplane.
b. The composition, experience and competence of the flight crew.
c. The means used to determine and report meteorological conditions.
Runway Visual Range (RVR) — The range over which the pilot of an aircraft on the center line of
a runway can see the runway surface markings or the lights delineating the runway or identifying
its center line. (ICAO)
NOTE: Within Australia, the term “RUNWAY VISUAL RANGE” or “RVR” is used exclusively in
relation to RVR measured by an instrumented system.
In Australia, Runway Visual Range (RVR) observations are based solely on the information provi-
ded by electronic systems such as transmissometers. RVR observations representative of the
touchdown, midpoint and roll out/stop end zones are automatically displayed in the local ATC unit.
At locations where RVR information is accessible to the Bureau of Meteorology, the RVR is inclu-
ded in METAR and SPECI reports.
Runway Visibility (RV) — The distance along a runway over which a person can see and recog-
nize a visibility marker or runway lights.
At places not equipped with RVR sensors or where one or more RVR sensors are unserviceable,
a Runway Visibility (RV) assessment may be provided instead. An RV assessment is a report on
the visibility in the touchdown and midpoint zones of a runway, and is assessed by a ground
observer counting visible runway lights or visibility markers.
An RV assessment is NOT a substitute for a required RVR observation and CANNOT be used:
a. for SA CAT I, SA CAT II, CAT II & CAT III precision approaches, or
b. for CAT I approaches when the visibility is less than 800m, or
c. for low visibility take-offs where the visibility is less than 350m.
An RV assessment is a subset of a general visibility observation and is intended to provide visibil-
ity information specific to a particular runway; which may be more useful to a pilot than the overall
ground visibility. Pilots will be notified by ATIS broadcast or directed transmission if RVR/RV is not
available when visibility is less than 800m.
at other times of low natural light levels. By day, when the light intensity is above a pre-set level,
the system will not activate the lights. However, where an airport is equipped with a VASIS, acti-
vation of the PAL during daylight hours will activate the VASIS only.
It is recommended that pilots activate the lighting before taxi or within 15 NM of the airport. The
lights will illuminate for a minimum of 30 minutes, depending on the installation timer setting. The
wind indicator light will flash continuously during the last 10 minutes of lighting illumination to warn
users that the lights are about to extinguish. To maintain continuity of lighting, repeat the activa-
tion sequence.
PAL systems may provide an audio acknowledgment (PAL+AA) of lighting operation. For systems
with an audio acknowledgment capability the expected responses on the PAL frequency are:
“[aerodrome name] AERODROME LIGHTING ON”
“[aerodrome name] LIGHTS 10 MINUTES REMAINING”
“[aerodrome name] AERODROME LIGHTING NOT ACTIVATED”
At airports with AFRU, PAL operation may be provided as an optional function of an AFRU (on
the associated airport CTAF) and is referred to as AFRU+PAL. Expected responses on the CTAF
are:
“[aerodrome name, CTAF message] RUNWAY LIGHTS ON”
“[aerodrome name, CTAF message] NO RUNWAY LIGHTS”

Large, Marginally noise Compliant Chapter 3 (MCC3) jet aircraft are prohibited from operating at:
Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin, Cairns, Gold Coast,
Williamtown, Essendon Fields and Avalon airports. For a full list of potentially affected aircraft
types contact the Assistant Secretary, Airports Branch. The department email address is air-

TIONS AND REQUIREMENTS — Designated Authorities).
Operators of MCC3 aircraft who want to operate at these airports must apply to the Department of
Infrastructure for a (noise) exemption to operate. The department email address is aircraft.per-
mits@infrastructure.gov.au.
Application
Noise Abatement procedures shall normally apply to all jet propelled aircraft and other aircraft
having a MTOW exceeding 5700kg (12,566 lbs).
Where noise abatement procedures are prescribed, and ATC traffic management permits, Noise
Abatement Procedures runway nomination provisions will be applied. Not withstanding this, noise
abatement will not be a determining factor in runway selection under the following circumstances
(unless required by Noise Abatement legislation):
a. In conditions of low clouds, thunderstorms and/or poor visibility;
b. For runway conditions that are completely dry:
1. when the crosswind component, including gusts, exceeds 20 kt;
2. when the tailwind component, including gusts, exceeds 5 kt;
c. For runway conditions that are not completely dry:
1. when the crosswind component, including gusts, exceeds 20 kt;
2. when there is a tailwind component;
d. When wind shear has been reported;
e. When, in the opinion of the pilot-in-command, safety would be prejudiced by runway condi-
tions or any other operational consideration.
Noise abatement departure procedures will be developed by the operator for each aircraft type in
accordance with the requirements of ICAO Procedures for Air Navigation Services– Aircraft Oper-
ations (PANS-OPS) Vol. I, Part V, Chapter 3 and are subject to approval by the Civil Aviation
Safety Authority.
Curfews
There are curfews on some operations at Adelaide, Gold Coast, Melbourne/Essendon and
Sydney airports. Details of the curfew are published on the applicable NOISE chart in the Termi-
nal section.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1116
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
ATC instructions to rejoin a STAR will specify any transition restrictions that must be complied
with up to, but not including the waypoint where the STAR is rejoined. The pilot must comply with
any published STAR speed and level restrictions, at and after the waypoint where the STAR is
rejoined.
Following holding, pilots can expect to continue the previously issued STAR. ATC will indicate if
published level and/or speed restrictions are to be followed or are cancelled.
Where a STAR incorporates circuit legs to a runway, pilots of aircraft not equipped with a flight
management system may accept the STAR clearance and request vectors when contacting
Approach Control.
SID Procedures
Unless explicitly cancelled or amended by ATC, the pilot must follow the vertical and lateral profile
of the SID and comply with any published speed restrictions.
The use of a SID designator without a cleared level does not authorize the pilot to climb on the
SID vertical profile.
A level restriction depicted on a SID chart does not authorize a pilot to climb to meet that restric-
tion. ATC will assign climb to permit compliance with vertical navigation restrictions. Pilots must
inform ATC if a level restriction cannot be met.
ATC level change instructions to aircraft on a SID will indicate if published level and/or speed
restrictions are to be followed or are cancelled.
When conducting a SID, the priority is to meet the vertical navigation restrictions of the SID. When
speed restrictions do not enable the aircraft to meet a SID level restriction, the pilot must advise
ATC of any speed deviation requirement at ACD stage or as soon as the situation is identified.
Pilots must advise ATC when able to resume the SID speed restrictions.
For ATC traffic management: unless varied by ATC, DAP or ERSA, at or before 3000 ft AGL or at
the completion of a noise abatement procedure, jet aircraft departing Class C airports must:
a. commence acceleration to 250 kt IAS; and
b. maintain 250 kt until leaving 10,000 ft AMSL.
The pilot must advise ATC, preferably at ACD stage, if the aircraft will be unable to comply.
Cancellation of ‘published speed restrictions’ cancels all speeds published on the SID chart. Can-
cellation of ‘ATC-issued speed control instructions’ cancels any speed control instructions issued
by ATC. Airspace speed limitations must be complied with unless specifically cancelled.
When a departing aircraft is cleared to proceed direct to a published waypoint on the SID, the
speed and level restrictions associated with the bypassed waypoints are cancelled. The pilot must
comply with any published SID speed and level restrictions, at and after the waypoint where the
SID is rejoined. An aircraft cleared to bypass one or more waypoints on a SID will not receive a
specific instruction to rejoin the SID.
When a departing aircraft is vectored or cleared to proceed away from the SID, all the published
speed and level restrictions of the SID are cancelled. ATC will notify the pilot if there is an expect-
ation the aircraft will subsequently rejoin the SID.
NOTE: Unless specifically cancelled by ATC, any ATC traffic management speed specified will
apply to aircraft when vectored or cleared away from a SID.
ATC instructions to rejoin a SID will specify any transition restrictions that must be complied with
up to, but not including the waypoint where the SID is rejoined. The pilot must comply with any
published SID speed and level restrictions, at and after the waypoint where the SID is rejoined.
In a surveillance environment prior to take-off, ATC may cancel a procedural SID and:
a. issue a radar SID; or
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1120
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
b. require the aircraft to depart on runway track using the climb gradient specified in the cancel-
led SID. In this case, ATC will use the phrase “CANCEL SID, TRACK EXTENDED CENTER-
LINE (three digits) DEGREES”.
NOTE: For the application of this procedure, the runway and radar SID tracks must be coincident
up to the MVA.
In VMC by day, the pilot may request, or ATC may offer a visual departure.
When a departure report is required during a SID, the SID designator must be included in the
report.
For a Radar SID, the direction of turn and assigned heading must be advised in the airborne
report.
tors who have advised in writing an intention not to participate will not be intentionally sequenced
for LAHSO.
Where an aircraft or crew that would normally participate actively or passively in LAHSO does not
meet the criteria for participation, this must be communicated to ATC at the earliest opportunity.
Pilots of aircraft not operating under a flight number callsign who will be entering controlled air-
space within 120 NM of destination must advise ATC “LAHSO APPROVED”.
When crews experience wind shear early advice to ATC is essential to ensure timely information
is passed to subsequent aircraft.
ATIS Broadcast
Pilots will be alerted that LAHSO are in progress by a statement on the ATIS; e.g., “DARWIN
TERMINAL INFORMATION BRAVO, RUNWAYS 29 AND 36, LAND AND HOLD SHORT OPER-
ATIONS IN PROGRESS, (wind, temp, etc.)”
Both the active and passive runways will be nominated on the ATIS to aid in crew situational
awareness.
NOTE: The acronym LAHSO may be used at ATC discretion.
Directed Traffic Information
ATC is required to issue directed traffic information to both aircraft participating in LAHSO.
Readback Requirement
In all cases, pilots must read back an ATC issued requirement to hold short.
LAHSO Information Signs
Distance To Go Signs — This sign is provided on runways used for LAHSO where a pilot may
have difficulty seeing the intersecting runway during the landing roll due to an obstruction such as
a hump in the landing runway. This sign is placed on the left hand side of the runway. The num-
bers shown indicate the distance in meters from the sign to the Hold Short Line.
NOTE: Defense airports also provide Distance To Go signs. The distance shown on such a sign
is in feet and is the distance from the sign to the end of the runway.
Runway Intersection Signs — This sign is normally provided for a runway used in LAHSO to
show the designation of the intersecting runway. A sign is placed on both sides of the runway at
the Hold Short Line (75m to the intersecting runway centerline). These signs are illuminated for
night operations. An ATC take-off or landing clearance constitutes clearance to pass such signs
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1122
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
except when a landing clearance specifically directs that the aircraft hold short of the intersecting
runway during the landing run.
CONTROL AREAS
A control area (CTA) is defined as “a controlled airspace extending upwards from a specified limit
above the earth.” Control areas normally operate continuously. Areas identified by the word
NOTAM may be activated, or additional areas may be established to meet temporary require-
ments, by the issuance of a NOTAM or AIP Supplement.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1123
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
CONTROL ZONE
A control zone (CTR) is defined as “a controlled airspace extending upwards from the surface of
the earth to a specified upper limit.” CTRs surround controlled airports and are designated as fol-
lows:
a. Civil CTR: A CTR, administered by a civil air navigation service provider, other than a mili-
tary CTR. Class C or Class D procedures and services apply.
b. Military CTR: A CTR administered by the Australian Defence Force. Class C procedures
and services apply to civil flights.
CTRs are active during the hours of the operation of the control tower as published in Airport
Directory or as varied by NOTAM.
NOTE: MIL CTR may be activated at short notice. Pilots should plan their operations on the basis
that CTR are active unless advised to the contrary.
Pilots and ATS should be aware that the preference to use “group form” does not invalidate any
transmissions made in conventional formats. However, to retain the integrity in the communication
between ATS and operators, the identification format used should be consistent.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1124
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
A pilot not using “group form” in establishing communication, but subsequently addressed by ATS
in this format, should adopt the use of “group form” for the remainder of the flight in Australian
airspace.
There is no additional abbreviated form when using flight number call-signs. The airline designa-
tor and all digits of the call-sign, including leading zeros, must be pronounced.
GROUND MOVEMENT
Pushback
The pilot-in-command must obtain an approval to pushback where this maneuver is necessary
prior to taxiing. Information about other aircraft moving on the same apron will be provided by the
apron service.
Taxi Clearance
When operating from a controlled airport where ATIS is in operation, a pilot-in-command must
obtain the ATIS prior to taxi, and advise ATC of the ATIS code when requesting taxi clearance.
For IFR flights other than Australian air transport operations, the pilot-in-command must provide
ATC with the number of POB when requesting taxi clearance.
Enroute
In controlled airspace, separation standards are based on the pilot maintaining route or track as
closely as possible at all times. Corrective action must be taken to regain route or track as soon
as any deviation is observed.
If an aircraft on a long over-water flight operating in an oceanic Class A airspace has inadvertently
deviated from the route specified in its ATC clearance, the pilot must take action to regain the
cleared route within 200 NM from the position at which the deviation was observed.
ACA slots may be obtained from ACA MON-FRI 2200-0600 UTC as follows:
Notification of changes to slots allocated to existing scheduled flights should be advised to ACA in
accordance with the requirements of the appropriate traffic management scheme.
ACA slots may be obtained outside ACA office hours for short notice non-scheduled flights from
the NCC on 1800 020 626. These slots will be allocated from the available pool.
Allocated ACA slots may be subject to change by ATFM due to operational constraints.
Pre Tactical — Ground Delay Program
General
The NCC publishes GDP for:
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1126
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
For early non-compliant flights, ATC will only issue a clearance to push back or taxi for a ground-
based operational requirement or if there is a reasonable expectation that, due to taxi or runway-
holding position delays, the required CTOT will be achieved.
If a new COBT has been issued after receiving airways clearance, pilots are to advise ATC of the
amended COBT when calling for a start/pushback/taxi clearance.
Notwithstanding actions taken under the above paragraphs to achieve compliance, flights depart-
ing non-compliant can expect delays enroute. Non-compliant flights will be allocated the next
available slot time up to a maximum delay as follows:
a. Early non-compliant – 60 min; or
b. Late non-compliant – published traffic holding delay.
Non-scheduled Flights
Prior to submitting a flight plan, pilots of non-scheduled flights intending to operate into a GDP
airport during the hours of program operation:
a. should, if required, obtain an ACA slot from ACA prior to contacting the NCC; and
b. must contact the NCC for a COBT and, if unable to obtain prior, an ACA slot.
Where possible pilots should contact the NCC prior to 0800 UTC the day before to ensure their
flight in included in the GDP run for the following day. Operators who contact the NCC after the
GDPs have been run will be allocated the next available COBT.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1127
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Pilots must provide the following information to the NCC at least one hour prior to the proposed
operation. Any changes must be notified to the NCC prior to departure.
a. Aircraft call sign
b. Aircraft registration
c. Aircraft type
d. Departure airport
e. Destination airport
f. ETD (UTC time only)
g. ETA (UTC time only)
h. COBT notification email/mobile phone number
Notification of flight details to the NCC is additional to all existing flight plan notification require-
ments.
Pilots of non-scheduled flights must check their COBT for any amendments prior to flight by:
a. being able to receive a message from the NCC via their mobile phone/email; or
b. contacting the NCC within one of the flight; or
c. where no communication facilities are available, contacting the domestic HF frequency.
GDP Run Times
GDPs for the following day’s operations are normally run at the following times:
GDP Revision
When unforeseen circumstances significantly reduce the capacity of an airport, a GDP revision
may be initiated and pilots must obtain a new COBT. Tower ATC may stop departures to the GDP
airport to facilitate the revision.
There are three levels of revision:
a. Level 1 – compliance with the new COBT will commence in 30 min; or
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1128
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
b. Level 2 – immediate compliance with the new COBT should be observed, however flights
that have already maneuvered to depart may continue; or
c. Level 3 – immediate compliance with the new COBT should be observed by all flights.
NOTE: Level 2 and 3 revisions will not be applied to flights departing Perth, Darwin, Karratha,
Port Hedland or Broome, for Brisbane, Sydney or Melbourne.
The NCC will advise pilots and operators when a revision occurs. This advice may be provided
through ATS when required. When a level 2 or 3 GDP revision occurs, ATS will advise pilots sub-
ject to immediate compliance.
TACTICAL
Aircraft Sequencing Near ATFM Airports
Due to terminal area traffic density, pilots may expect airborne traffic delays for arrival at locations
adjacent to or within Class C control zones.
When sequencing arriving aircraft to controlled airports, ATC may apply one or more of the follow-
ing:
a. Enroute holding procedures;
b. Allocate a waypoint crossing time to the pilot; or
c. Tactically apply delaying action such as speed control or vectoring.
When ATC allocates a waypoint crossing time, aircraft must adjust speed to cross the waypoint at
the specified time or up to 30 seconds early. Speed adjustment to meet a waypoint crossing time
only applies to the specified waypoint. Unless otherwise published or instructed by ATC, pilots
must cross the waypoint at the lesser of 250 kt or profile speed.
Aircraft unable to meet the waypoint crossing time must inform ATC as early as possible.
Brisbane (YBBN) Air Traffic Flow Management Procedures
Strategic ATFM – Runway Demand Management Scheme (RDMS)
Brisbane RDMS is applicable to all airline and ACFT operators using Brisbane airport. All flights
operating into and out of Brisbane must obtain an Airport Coordination Australia (ACA) slot in
accordance with AIR TRAFFIC FLOW MANAGEMENT.
General Aviation (GA) apron operations are subject to runway/apron slot management. Approved
slot holders operating on the GA apron are to confirm allocated parking with the Brisbane Airport
Corporation Duty Manager prior to arrival.
For full information regarding the Brisbane RDMS see BAC (Brisbane Airport Corporation) web-
site: www.airportcoordination.org/airports/australia/brisbane-airport/.
Ground Delay Program (GDP)
Brisbane GDP is run on demand and promulgated by NOTAM between 2000–1300 UTC. GDP is
applicable to all fixed wing, non-priority flights departing from all Australian domestic airports, and
arriving at Brisbane.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1129
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Flights to Brisbane during the operation of GDP must obtain an ACA slot and Calculated Off
Blocks Time (COBT) in accordance with AIR TRAFFIC FLOW MANAGEMENT. The COBT can
be obtained through their company or the Network Coordination Centre on 1800 020 626.
Flow Tactical Landing Slots
Flights inbound to Brisbane with a duration of less than 45 minutes must:
a. Validate their COBT with Brisbane flow on 07 3866 3588 during hours of GDP; or
b. Confirm a tactical landing slot with Brisbane flow on 07 3866 3588 outside periods of GDP.
Failure to do so will result in delays.
Flights departing YBAF, YBCG and YBSU for a landing at Brisbane must contact Brisbane flow
controller on 07 3866 3588 prior to engine start.

MENT.
Melbourne (YMML) Air Traffic Flow Management Procedures
Ground Delay Program (GDP) Inbound
Melbourne GDPs are applicable to all fixed wing, non-priority flights departing from all Australian
domestic airports, and arriving at Melbourne BTN 2000–1400 UTC DAILY (1 hour earlier during
hours of daylight savings).
Except as specified in the Note below, flights from all Australian airports are required to operate in
accordance with the Calculated Off Blocks Time (COBT). The COBT can be obtained through
their company or the National Operations Centre on 1800 020 626.
NOTE: COBTs generated by Perth Departure Management Program will take precedence over
COBTs generated by the Melbourne Arrivals GDP.
Flights departing within a 60 NM radius of Melbourne must also obtain a start clearance from the
departure airport when active or from Melbourne ATC 03 9235 7337.
Ground Delay Program (GDP) Outbound
Aircraft departing Melbourne (YMML) airport for an Australian Airport with a Ground Delay Pro-
gram must contact ACD 127.2 after receiving an Airways Clearance and prior to start. ACD will
check compliance with COBT before transferring to SMC 121.7.
Clearance and Pushback Procedures
All departures requiring a pushback must call ACD on 127.2 with their request. ACD will instruct
flightcrew to “monitor ground” or “monitor ground on 121.7.” When clearance is available “Mel-
bourne Ground” (SMC) will issue the pushback clearance or other instruction. This procedure may
be used at any time and will be advised via ATIS.

NOTE: In determining requirements for alternate airports, forecast amounts of cloud below
the alternate minima are cumulative. For determining requirements, the cumulative cloud
amount is interpreted as follows:
FEW plus FEW is equivalent to SCT,
FEW plus SCT is equivalent to BKN,
SCT plus SCT is equivalent to BKN or OVC.
b. Visibility – less than the alternate minimum; or
c. Visibility – greater than the alternate minimum, but the forecast is endorsed with at least 30%
probability of fog, mist, dust or any other phenomenon restricting visibility below the alternate
minimum; or
d. a thunderstorm or associated severe turbulence, or a forecast of at least a 30% probability of
such an event; or
e. Wind – a crosswind or tailwind component more than the maximum for the aircraft;
NOTE: Wind gusts must be considered.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1133
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
When operating a helicopter under the VFR, and the use of helicopter VMC is permissible at the
destination, the pilot in command must provide for a suitable alternate airport when either of the
following conditions is forecast at the destination:
a. cloud — more than SCT below a ceiling of 1000 ft; or
b. visibility — less than 3000m.
When weather conditions at the destination are forecast to be as specified above, but are expec-
ted to improve at a specific time, provision for an alternate airport need not be made if sufficient
fuel is carried to allow the aircraft to hold until that specified time plus 30 minutes.
When weather conditions at the destination are forecast to be above the values specified above,
but, additionally, intermittent or temporary deteriorations in the weather below the values are fore-
cast, provision of an alternate need not be made if sufficient fuel is carried to allow the aircraft to
hold for:
a. 30 minutes holding for intermittent deterioration (INTER); or
b. 60 minutes holding for temporary deterioration (TEMPO).
When thunderstorms or their associated severe turbulence or their probability is forecast at the
destination, sufficient fuel must be carried to permit the aircraft to proceed to a suitable alternate
or to hold for:
a. 30 minutes when the forecast is endorsed INTER; or
b. 60 minutes when the forecast is endorsed TEMPO.
When a forecast has multiple INTER or TEMPO deteriorations and holding fuel will be carried,
fuel must be carried to hold for only the most limiting requirement. INTER and TEMPO holding
fuel requirements are not cumulative.
When TAFs include a FM or a BECMG, causing an operational requirement to either become
effective or be removed, the timing for the change in operational requirement is as follows:
a. When the weather following the FM or BECMG is forecast to create an operational require-
ment, that operational requirement will become effective 30 minutes before the start of the
FM time, or 30 minutes before the start of the BECMG period.
b. When the weather following the FM or BECMG is forecast to remove an operational require-
ment, that operational requirement will remain effective until 30 minutes after the FM time or
30 minutes after the end of the BECMG period.
The fuel required, as listed above, must be carried when the ETA of the aircraft at its destination
or alternate falls within the period 30 minutes before the forecast commencement time to 30
minutes after the expected time of cessation of these deteriorations. If the holding time extends
past 30 minutes after the forecast cessation of these deteriorations, the aircraft need only carry
sufficient fuel to hold until 30 minutes after the forecast cessation time.
At airports receiving a TAF3 service, and only during the first 3 hours of the TAF3 validity, not
beyond the end time for the TAF3 service if such a time is specified, the following do not apply:
a. 30-minute buffers required as set forth in above paragraphs;

All civil aircraft require 30 minutes holding fuel during Air Traffic Service hours. Non-standard pri-
orities apply during Air Traffic Service hours.
tial (e.g., due to turbulence), ATC must be notified as soon as possible that such a change has
been made.
e. as soon as practicable, advise ATC of any deviation from their assigned clearance;
f. use means as appropriate (i.e., voice and/or CPDLC) to communicate during a contingency
or emergency;
NOTE 1: When emergency situations are communicated via CPDLC, the controller may
respond via CPDLC. However, the controller may also attempt to make voice contact with
the aircraft.
NOTE 2: Guidance on emergency procedures for controllers, radio operators, and flight crew
in data link operations can be found in the Global Operational Data Link (GOLD) Manual
(Doc 10037) (not published herein).
g. if voice communication is used, use the radiotelephony distress signal (MAYDAY) or urgency
signal (PAN PAN) preferably spoken three times, as appropriate; and
h. establish communications with and alert nearby aircraft by broadcasting at suitable intervals
on the frequency in use and on 121.5 MHz (or, as a backup, on the inter-pilot air-to-air fre-
quency 123.45 MHz):
1. aircraft identification;
2. flight level;
3. position including the ATS route designator or the track code, as appropriate;
4. the nature of the distress condition; and
5. intentions.
NOTE: ATC will attempt to determine the nature of the emergency and ascertain any assis-
tance that may be required. Subsequent ATC action with respect to that aircraft will be based
on the intentions of the pilot and overall traffic situation.
Actions to Be Taken Once Offset from Track
NOTE: The pilot’s judgment of the situation and the need to ensure the safety of the aircraft will
determine the actions outlined to be taken. Factors for the pilot to consider when deviating from
the cleared track or ATS route or level without an ATC clearance include, but are not limited to:
a. Operation within a parallel track system;
b. The potential for User Preferred Routes (UPR) parallel to the aircraft’s track or ATS route;
c. The nature of the contingency (e.g., aircraft system malfunction); and
d. Weather factors (e.g., convective weather at lower flight levels).
If possible, maintain the assigned flight level until established on the 5 NM parallel, same direction
track or ATS route offset. If unable, initially minimize the rate of descent to the extent that is
operationally feasible.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1141
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Once established on a parallel, same direction track or ATS route offset by 5 NM either:
a. descend below FL290 and establish a 500 ft vertical offset from those flight levels normally
used and proceed as required by the operational situation or if an ATC clearance has been
obtained, in accordance with the clearance; or
NOTE 1: Flight levels normally used are those contained in ATC — CLIMB AND CRUISE —
Tables of Cruising Levels.
NOTE 2: Descent below FL290 is considered particularly applicable to operations where
there is a predominant traffic flow (e.g., east-west) or parallel track system where the air-
craft’s diversion path will likely cross adjacent tracks or ATS routes. A descent below FL290
can decrease the likelihood of conflict with other aircraft, ACAS RA events and delays in
obtaining a revised ATC clearance.
b. establish a 500 ft vertical offset (or 1000 ft vertical offset if above FL410) from those flight
levels normally used and proceed as required by the operational situation, or if an ATC clear-
ance has been obtained, in accordance with the clearance.
NOTE: Altimetry System Errors (ASE) may result in less than 500 ft vertical spacing (less than
1000 ft above FL410) when the above contingency procedure is applied.
Weather Deviation Procedures
General
When weather deviation is required, the pilot should initiate communications with ATC via voice or
CPDLC. A rapid response may be obtained by either:
a. stating “WEATHER DEVIATION REQUIRED” to indicate that priority is desired on the fre-
quency and for ATC response; or
b. requesting a weather deviation using a CPDLC lateral downlink message.
When necessary, the pilot should initiate the communications using the urgency call “PAN PAN”
(preferably spoken three times) or by using a CPDLC urgency downlink message.
The pilot must inform ATC when weather deviation is no longer required, or when a weather devi-
ation has been completed and the aircraft has returned to its cleared route.
Actions to Be Taken when Controller-Pilot Communications Are Established
The pilot should notify ATC and request clearance to deviate from track or ATS route advising,
when possible, the extent of the deviation requested. The flight crew will use whatever means are
appropriate (i.e., voice and/or CPDLC) to communicate during a weather deviation.
NOTE: Pilots are advised to contact ATC as soon as possible with requests for clearance in order
to provide adequate time for the request to be assessed and acted upon.
After communicating with ATC, the pilot:
a. must comply with the ATC clearance issued; or
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1142
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
b. when ATC are unable to issue a clearance for the requested deviation, should advise ATC of
intentions and execute the procedures detailed in the following subsection.
Actions to Be Taken if a Revised ATC Clearance Cannot Be Obtained
If the aircraft is required to deviate from track or ATS route to avoid adverse meteorological condi-
tions and prior clearance cannot be obtained, an ATC clearance must be obtained at the earliest
possible time. Until an ATC clearance is received, the pilot should take the following actions:
a. if possible, deviate away from an organized track or ATS route system;
b. establish communications with and alert nearby aircraft by broadcasting, at suitable intervals
on the frequency in use and on 121.5 MHz (or, as a back-up, on the inter-pilot air-to-air fre-
quency 123.45 MHz):
1. aircraft identification;
2. flight level;
3. position including ATS route designator or the track code; and
4. intentions.
c. watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS (if equipped);
d. turn on all exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limitations);
e. for deviations of less than 5 NM from the originally cleared track or ATS route, remain at a
level assigned by ATC;
f. for deviations greater than or equal to 5 NM from the originally cleared track or ATS route,
when the aircraft is approximately 5 NM from track, initiate a level change in accordance with
the following table:
g. if the pilot receives clearance to deviate from cleared track or ATS route for a specified dis-
tance and, subsequently, requests, but cannot obtain a clearance to deviate beyond that dis-
tance, the pilot should apply an altitude offset in accordance with the table above before
deviating beyond the cleared distance;
h. when returning to track or ATS route, be at its assigned flight level when the aircraft is within
approximately 5 NM of the centerline; and
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1143
AUSTRALIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
i. if contact was not established prior to deviating, continue to attempt to contact ATC to obtain
a clearance. If contact was established, continue to keep ATC advised of intentions and
obtain traffic information.
NOTE: If, as a result of actions taken under the provisions of this paragraph, the pilot determines
that there is another aircraft at or near the same flight level with which a conflict may occur, then
the pilot is expected to adjust the path of the aircraft, as necessary, to avoid conflict.
Controlled flight — Definition of controlled flight not used in Australia. Flights in controlled air-
space require air traffic control clearance but such flights are then referred to as operations in
controlled airspace.
Filed flight plan — Australian legislation refers to flight plan which means specified information,
provided to air traffic control, relative to the intended flight of an aircraft.
Flight information region — Australian legislation defines flight information region as: an air-
space of defined dimensions within which flight information service and SAR alerting service are
provided.
Pressure-altitude — Pressure altitude not specifically defined in Australian legislation.
Take-off alternate — Australian legislation addresses the expression differently. If a return to the
departure airport is not possible, that the aircraft performance and fuel availability is adequate to
enable the aircraft to proceed to a suitable airport.
Taxiing — Taxiing not specifically defined in Australian legislation but forms part of the definition
of Taxiway. Taxiway: A defined path on a land airport established for the taxiing of aircraft and
intended to provide a link between one part of the airport and another.
Terminal control area — Australian legislation does not specifically define Terminal Control
Area, but defines Control Area.

IFR.
4.9.1.1 Wake Turbulence separation is not applied when a LIGHT aircraft will cross the track or
follow the track of a MEDIUM fixed-wing aircraft of less than 25,000kg maximum certified take-off
mass.
4.10 The system of altimetry used in Australia makes use of a transition layer between the tran-
sition altitude which is always 10,000 ft and the transition level of FL110 to FL125 depending on
ONH to separate aircraft using QNH from those using 1013.2HPA as a datum.
4.11.5 Australian FIRs operate ADS-C to FANS 1A standards.
5.2.1.1 & 5.9 In Class “C,” “D” and “E” airspace ATC may assign to the pilot of one aircraft
responsibility to maintain separation with another aircraft only if:
a. the aircraft to be separated are operating at or below 10,000 ft; and
b. the pilot has:
1. reported the other aircraft in sight; and
2. accepted responsibility to follow, or maintain his or her own separation with, that air-
craft.
5.3.4.1 An aircraft may only be assigned a level vacated by another aircraft if a rate of climb or
descent is specified so as to ensure that the applicable vertical separation minimum is main-
tained.
5.4.1.2.1.2 Australia uses a lateral separation procedure which ensures there is at least one
nautical mile displacement between the two aircraft accounting for the accuracy of the navigation
aid or method used.
In addition to navigation aid combinations mentioned in PANS-ATM, Australia facilitates lateral
separation on the basis of dead reckoning tracks, and one aircraft on a VOR radial and the other
aircraft on an NDB track.
5.4.2.6.2 Use of off-track DME stations is permitted under specified conditions.

(c) Eastbound: G-344 when available for eastbound flights.
(d) The altitudes available on these routes are at or below FL280 and at or above
FL430. ATC may reroute non-RNP 10 aircraft to other than the above routes due
to traffic.
e. NOPAC Reroutes
Aircraft cannot always be accommodated on their flight planned NOPAC route. In an effort to
reduce coordination time and errors between ATC and flight crews, JCAB (Fukuoka ATMC)
and FAA (Anchorage ARTCC) have agreed on a common procedure to accommodate most
reroutes. Aircraft rerouted from one NOPAC ATC route to another NOPAC ATC route will be
given short range clearances into the adjoining FIR's RADAR coverage airspace. The receiv-
ing ATC facility will then issue further routing to the aircraft prior to the aircraft reaching the
clearance limit.
1. Example 1: aircraft ABC101 is routed via R-220 to RJTT but can not be accommodated
on R-220. The aircraft may be re-cleared as follows: “ABC101 cleared to OATIS via
R-580, expect further clearance from ATMC after OMOTO.”
2. Example 2: aircraft ABC102 is routed via A-590 to PAFA but can not be accommodated
on A-590. The aircraft may be re-cleared as follows: “ABC102 cleared to SYA via
R-591, expect further routing from Anchorage ARTCC after AKISU.”
GENERAL PROCEDURES
a. If an aircraft is unable to continue the flight in accordance with its ATC clearance, a revised
clearance shall be obtained, whenever possible, prior to initiating any action.
b. If prior clearance cannot be obtained, the following contingency procedures should be
employed until a revised clearance is received. In general terms, the aircraft should be flown
at an offset level and on an offset track where other aircraft are less likely to be encountered.
Specifically, the pilot shall:
1. Leave the cleared track or ATS route by initially turning at least 30 degrees to the right
or to the left, in order to establish and maintain a parallel, same direction track or ATS
route offset 5.0 NM (9.3km). The direction of the turn should be based on one or more
of the following factors:
(a) Aircraft position relative to any organized track or ATS route system;
(b) The direction of flights and flight levels allocated on adjacent tracks;
(c) The direction to an alternate airport;
(d) Any strategic lateral offset being flown; and
(e) Terrain clearance;
2. Maintain a watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS (if equip-
ped), leaving ACAS in RA mode at all times. unless aircraft operating limitations dictate
otherwise;
3. Turn on all aircraft exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limita-
tions);
4. Keep the SSR transponder on at all times and, when able, squawk 7700, as appropri-
ate and, if equipped with ADS-B or ADS-C, select the appropriate emergency function-
ality;
5. As soon as practicable, advise air traffic control of any deviation from their assigned
clearance;
6. Use means as appropriate (i.e., voice and/or CPDLC) to communicate during a contin-
gency or emergency;

route shall not be delayed in anticipation of obtaining a requested re-clearance.
e. EXCEPTIONS TO POSITION REPORTS:
1. Within Oakland FIR, no 5° report need be made that would fall within 100 NM of Guam.
Aircraft cleared via terminal area routes report compulsory reporting fixes. Other aircraft
report 100 NM from Nimitz VORTAC. Where other island destinations within the Oak-
land FIR are not more than 1° latitude-longitude from a 5° fixed line reporting point, the
ETA and arrival report may be substituted in lieu of the adjacent fixed line report.
2. To the east of the Hawaiian Islands it will not be necessary to report the 155° west posi-
tion if position will be reported at the entry/exit fixes at the Honolulu Control Facility
boundary. To the west of Honolulu 160° west need not be reported.
i. If contact was not established prior to deviating, continue to attempt to contact ATC to obtain
a clearance. If contact was established, continue to keep ATC advised of intentions and
obtain essential traffic information.
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Third Asia / Pacific Regional Air Navigation
meeting recommended that Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) be introduced in the
Pacific region after successful implementation in the North Atlantic region. This is also due to the
significant benefits to be gained by aircraft operators and air traffic services (ATS) providers.
ICAO Document 9574, Manual on Implementation of a 300m [1000 ft] Vertical Separation Mini-
mum Between FL290 and FL410 Inclusive contains an explanation of RVSM.
1.1.1 Benefits to be gained from RVSM include:
a. adoption of an ICAO endorsed navigation requirement;
b. improved utilization of airspace for ATC conflict resolution; and
c. fuel savings of ≈1% for flight closer to optimum cruise altitude.
NOTE: These provisions are intended to support the effectiveness of ACAS as well as to improve
the effectiveness of air traffic services.
3.2.4 Non-RVSM compliant aircraft may be cleared to climb to and operate above FL410 or
descend to and operate below FL290 provided that they:
a. do not climb or descend at less than the normal rate for the aircraft, and
b. do not level off at an intermediate level while passing through the RVSM stratum.
3.2.5 Non-RVSM compliant aircraft may not flight plan between FL290 and FL410 inclusive
within RVSM airspace. After special coordination as detailed in paragraph 3.2.6 below, the follow-
ing non-RVSM aircraft may flight plan at RVSM flight levels in the RVSM stratum:
a. is being initially delivered to the State of Registry or Operator; or
b. was formally RVSM approved but has experienced an equipment failure and is being flown
to a maintenance facility for repair in order to meet RVSM requirements and/or obtain appro-
val; or
c. is transporting a spare engine mounted under the wing; or
d. is being utilized for mercy or humanitarian purposes; or
e. State aircraft (those aircraft used in military, customs and police services shall be deemed
state aircraft).
3.2.6 Aircraft operators requesting approval as above shall:
a. obtain approval from the appropriate Air Traffic Control Center normally not more than 72
hours (12 hours within the Oakland and Anchorage FIRs) and not less than 4 hours prior to
the intended departure time. The Air Traffic Control Center will provide notification of appro-
val via telephone, AFTN, facsimile or e-mail as appropriate; or
b. obtain approval from the first RVSM affected Center.
NOTE: The first Center will coordinate with the next Center.
c. include “APVD NON-RVSM” in Field 18 of the ICAO Flight Plan.
NOTE: Approval means able to operate in the RVSM stratum. Aircraft cruising levels will be sub-
ject to Air Traffic Control.
3.2.7 This approval process is intended exclusively for the purposes indicated above and not as
a means to circumvent the normal RVSM approval process.
fication to the PARMO should be in the form of a letter, e-mail or facsimile documenting the one-
time flight. The planned date of the flight, flight identification, registration number and aircraft type/
series should be included.

If prior clearance cannot be obtained, the following contingency procedures should be employed
until a revised clearance is received. In general terms, the aircraft should be flown at an offset
level and on an offset track where other aircraft are less likely to be encountered. Specifically, the
pilot shall:
a. leave the cleared track or ATS route by initially turning at least 30 degrees to the right or to
the left, in order to establish and maintain a parallel, same direction track or ATS route offset
5.0 NM (9.3km). The direction of the turn should be based on one or more of the following
factors:
1. aircraft position relative to any organized track or ATS route system;
2. the direction of flights and flight levels allocated on adjacent tracks;
3. the direction to an alternate airport;
4. any strategic lateral offset being flown; and
5. terrain clearance;
b. maintain a watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS (if equipped),
leaving ACAS in RA mode at all times, unless aircraft operating limitations dictate otherwise;
c. turn on all aircraft exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limitations);
d. keep the SSR transponder on at all times and, when able, squawk 7700, as appropriate
and, if equipped with ADS-B or ADS-C, select the appropriate emergency functionality;
e. as soon as practicable, advise air traffic control of any deviation from their assigned clear-
ance;
f. use means as appropriate (i.e. voice and/or CPDLC) to communicate during a contingency
or emergency;
g. if voice communications are used, the radiotelephony distress signal (MAYDAY) or urgency
signal (PAN PAN) preferably spoken three times, shall be used, as appropriate;

The routes or airspace where application of strategic lateral offsets is authorized, and the proce-
dures to be followed by pilots, shall be promulgated in aeronautical information publications
(AIPs). In some instances, it may be necessary to impose restrictions on the use of strategic lat-
eral offsets, e.g. where their application may be inappropriate for reasons related to obstacle
clearance. Route conformance monitoring systems shall account for the application of SLOP.
The decision to apply a strategic lateral offset shall be the responsibility of the flight crew. The
flight crew shall only apply strategic lateral offsets in airspace where such offsets have been
authorized by the appropriate ATS authority and when the aircraft is equipped with automatic
offset tracking capability.
NOTE 1: Pilots may contact other aircraft on the inter-pilot air-to-air frequency 123.45 MHz to
coordinate offsets.
NOTE 2: The strategic lateral offset procedure has been designed to include offsets to mitigate
the effects of wake turbulence of preceding aircraft. If wake turbulence needs to be avoided, an
offset to the right and within the limits specified above may be used.
NOTE 3: Pilots are not required to inform ATC that a strategic lateral offset is being applied.

IFR: Maximum 250 KIAS below 10,000 ft AMSL.
VFR: Maximum 200 KIAS below FL200.
a. the pilot should establish contact with other aircraft, if possible, on the appropriate VHF inter-
pilot air-to-air frequency 123.45 MHz; and
b. one (or both) aircraft may initiate lateral offset(s), not to exceed 2 NM from the assigned
track, provided that:
1. as soon as practicable to do so, the offsetting aircraft notify ATC that temporary lateral
offset action has been taken and specify the reason for doing so (ATC will not normally
respond); and
2. the offsetting aircraft notify ATC when re-established on assigned route(s) or track(s).
In these contingency circumstances, ATC will not issue clearances for lateral offsets and will not
normally respond to actions taken by the pilots.
d. as soon as practicable, resume normal flight level/altitude, notifying the action on the appro-
priate TIBA frequency.
These sites are spread throughout that portion of the domestic airspace that has frequent flights
or to extend the surveillance coverage of ADS-B equipped aircraft.
Coverage is line of sight to a ground station and can be out as far as 250 NM from elevated
ground stations such as Delaikoro or Monasavu for an aircraft at high altitude.
The PBCS provision applies RCP 240 and RSP 180 specifications to the application of 55.5km
(30 NM) and 93km (50 NM) longitudinal separation minima and application of a 55.5km (30 NM)
lateral separation minimum.
There will be no introduction of any new airspace separations with the introduction of PBCS. How-
ever, existing application of performance-based reduced separation standards, as per ICAO DOC
4444, will, as of March 29, 2018, become subject to PBCS authorization of participating aircraft
within the Nadi Flight Information Region (FlR).
This affects the following separations currently in use:
– 30 NM lateral; and
– 30 NM and 50 NM longitudinal.
Aircraft operators conducting flights in the Nadi FIR, where separations are dependent on Per-
formance-Based Communication and Surveillance (PBCS), shall start using RCP/RSP indicators
in their flight plans as soon as possible, however, no later than March 29, 2018.
The application of existing and planned RNAV- and RNP-based 50 NM and 30 NM longitudinal
and 30 NM lateral separation minima shall continue, subject to the conditions that:
a. PBCS monitoring is in place; and
b. Performance-based horizontal separation using PBCS designators in flight plans is imple-
mented as soon as practically possible.
For details of PBCS, refer to Jeppesen ATC — “Performance-Based Communication and Surveil-

HOLDING
Particularities of Entries into a VOR DME Holding Pattern
Entries in a VOR DME holding pattern can be done as follows:
– by following the inbound track of the holding pattern;
– by following a published track;
– in cases of radar vectoring, aircraft must follow regulatory protected tracks.
The entry point is:
– either the holding pattern fix;
– or the end of flying distance fix.
PBN Procedures
The PBN approach procedures published in IAC charts are either nonprecision approaches
(LNAV) approaches with vertical guidance (LNAVVNAV and LPV) or precision approaches (LPV
200 ft). They are identified with the “RPN RWY xx” title and with the associated minimum box.
They are defined using criteria complying with those of ICAO PANS-OPS.
To follow a PBN approach procedure (intermediate, final and missed approach), the aircraft must
be equipped with a navigation system certified in compliance with the RNP specification (APCH)
of the ICAO Doc 9613, “PBN Manual”.
PBN Procedures in Terminal Area Published with the “RNP-1” Mention
PBN procedures in terminal area (SID and STAR) published with « RNP-1» identification are
available for aircraft equipped with a navigation system in compliance with this navigation specifi-
cation.
These procedures are protected for GNSS only.
PBN Procedures in Terminal Area Published with “RNAV-5” Mention
Not used in New Caledonia and Wallis et Futuna.
Aircraft operators using FANS1/A CPDLC and ADS-C in the TAHITI Oceanic FIR shall register on
the FANS Central Reporting Agency (CRA) website at http:/www.fans-cra.com and participate in
the regional monitoring and problem reporting programs.
Aircraft operators wishing to access 30/30 separation minima must indicate in their flight plan the
navigation and surveillance equipment available on board.
Subject to the availability of the conditions of surveillance (ADS-C connection active), of direct
communication Pilot/Controller (HF, VHF or CPDLC) and of navigation requirements required
(RNP), minimum lateral and longitudinal separation applicable is 30 NM between two aircraft. A
lateral and longitudinal of 50 NM separation of 50 NM will be applied between an RNP4 aircraft
and a RNP10 aircraft or between two RNP10 aircraft. In all other cases, 100 NM lateral or time-
based longitudinal separation will be applied.
When aircraft are unable to meet RNP criteria, pilots must advise ATC:
a. 30 minutes prior to entry to RNP airspace; or
b. immediately, when within 30 min of, or within RNP airspace.
ATC will endeavour to accommodate aircraft not meeting RNP criteria within the designated air-
space. Aircraft meeting RNP4 will be given priority over aircraft not meeting RNP4 criteria, subject
to the traffic disposition.
When on uncharted routes, aircraft must transmit section 1 of the AIREP at all fixes defining the
route.
Means of Communication
In Tahiti OCA, means of communication are the following:
– CPDLC: as primary means for data link equipped aircraft (FANS 1/A);
– Direct HF:
i) as primary means for non data link equipped aircraft, and;
ii) as backup communication medium if CPDLC failed.
– VHF when in Tahiti VHF coverage areas.
– SATCOM:
i) When an aircraft is unable to establish or re-establish contact with the ATC by the means
mentioned above will use SATCOM voice for non-routine and safety related situations.
Variation in True Airspeed
Except when aircraft are maintaining an ATC required mach number, any variation of average
true airspeed, between reporting points, of plus or minus five per cent shall be notified to ATC as
soon as possible.
Revisions of Estimates
Except when reporting position via ADS, pilots must report immediately to ATC a corrected esti-
mate for the next significant point at any time, it becomes apparent that an estimate previously
submitted is in error in excess of 2 minutes.
Before ADS and CPDLC connections can be established with Tahiti ATC Center, an initial
AFN_LOGON must be performed by the pilot in accordance with company procedures. This is
achieved by sending the AFN Contact message (FN_CON) to the ground system.
Logon Procedures
ATS Designator
The Tahiti ICAO Facility designation is: NTTT.
The Tahiti ACARS Address is: PPTCDYA.
Initial Logon (Pilot Initiated)
From aircraft proceeding inbound to Tahiti FIR from a non-CPDLC capable FIR or departing from
airports in Tahiti, ATC will accept 1st LOGON between 15 minutes and 45 minutes prior to enter-
ing FIR NTTT.
Nevertheless Tahiti ATC requests initial LOGON at the earliest 30 minutes prior to Estimate FIR
Boundary or for departing traffic at any time after passing FL100 or as instructed by ATC.
Address Forwarding Process
OUTBOUND TRAFFIC
Aircraft departing Tahiti airspace to an adjoining CPDLC capable FIR can expect to be address
forwarded to that FIR prior to crossing FIR boundary.
This process is achieved in accordance with local agreement with the adjacent ATS Unit.
INBOUND TRAFFIC
For inbound flights from upstream Data Link equipped centers, Tahiti requirements are as follows:
– Connection Management Requirement: LOGON is required at the earliest 35 minutes prior to
Estimate FIR Boundary;
– CPDLC Connection Transfer: required at least 5 minutes prior to Transfer of Control Point
(TCP) unless otherwise coordinated;
– Crossing FIR Boundary: Tahiti requests voice communication instruction as follows: “MONI-
TOR NTTT CENTER [Frequency]*”
(*Frequencies as those assigned during Coordination)
And one CPDLC position report.
Aircraft filing a SELCAL Code in FPL Item 18 will be assumed to have serviceable SELCAL
and be maintaining a SELCAL watch on the HF frequency advised in the monitor instruction
passed by the transferring CPDLC authority.

Application CPDLC
General
CPDLC will be the primary means of communications between ATC and FANS 1/A equipped air-
craft.
Voice will be used as the backup communications medium.
The provision of Pre Departure Clearance (PDC) via CPDLC to departing aircraft is not available.
Controller/Pilot dialogues opened by CPDLC must be closed by CPDLC.
Message Restrictions
Tahiti requires not to use element “CRUISE [altitude]” in CPDLC messages.
Position Reporting
Tahiti requires an initial CPDLC [position report] at FIR Boundary entry point then ADS reporting
only.
ADS Application
Pilots must ensure that ADS is left armed during flight progression within Tahiti FIR.
ADS Contracts will be established automatically upon successful Logon.
The Vertical Rate Change event contract is not used by Tahiti.
The default rate of Periodic Contract is set to 14 minutes in all airspaces of the Tahiti FIR.
Following initial CPDLC position report on first contact, ADS reporting will fulfil normal position
reporting requirements within the FIR.
Neither CPDLC nor Voice position reports will be required while ADS is operational.

When cruising level changes are unavoidable, all available aircraft lighting which would improve
the visual detection of the aircraft should be displayed while changing levels.
Collision Avoidance
If, on receipt of a traffic information broadcast from another aircraft, a pilot decides that immediate
action is necessary to avoid an imminent collision risk, and this cannot be achieved in accordance
with the right-of-way provisions of Annex 2, the pilot should:
a. unless an alternative maneuver appears more appropriate, immediately descend or climb
500 ft;
b. display all available aircraft lighting which would improve the visual detection of the aircraft;
c. as soon as possible, reply to the broadcast advising action being taken;
d. notify the action taken on the appropriate ATS frequency; and
e. as soon as practicable, resume normal flight level, notifying the action on the appropriate
ATS frequency.

The introduction of data link services does not affect current procedures for non data link equip-
ped aircraft operating in the same airspace.
Controller Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) and Automatic Dependent Surveillance
(ADS) data link applications will be used to provide services to FANS 1/A equipped aircraft, in
particular over the Bay of Bengal beyond the range of existing radar and VHF voice communica-
tions.
The use of CPDLC in Kuala Lumpur FIR is not mandatory and conducted at the discretion of the
controllers and aircrews involved. Aircrews are encouraged to use CPDLC to the maximum extent
possible, as alternative communication means, also to ease the R/T frequency load.
Messages will be transferred by VHF and satellite data link.
Logon Procedures
The AFN LOGON address for the Kuala Lumpur FIR is WMFC.
To avoid automatic rejection of the LOGON, the flight identification number used by the pilot in the
LOGON process must be identical to the flight identification number filed in the flight plan.
A LOGON must be received from the aircraft before any data link connections can be initiated by
the ground system. This is achieved via the ATS facility notification (AFN) LOGON process to be
initiated by the pilot. Aircraft requesting data link services inbound to Kuala Lumpur FIR are
required to LOGON onto WMFC at least 10 minutes prior to the estimated time for entering Kuala
Lumpur FIR.
Data link equipped aircraft departing from airports within the Kuala Lumpur FIR and requesting
data link may LOGON to WMFC prior to departure. Pilots who are unable to establish a data link
connection are to inform ATC on VHF or HF RTF.
NOTE: Pre-Departure Clearance (PDC) via CPDLC is not available.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - PACIFIC 1208
MALAYSIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
CPDLC Procedures
Aircraft that have established data link communications may transmit their position reports by
CPDLC instead of HF RTF.
Lumpur Radar frequency (133.4 MHz/124.525 MHz/125.775 MHz) will be used as primary back
up frequency for CPDLC. Primary and secondary HF frequencies (5670 kHz/6556 kHz/11285
kHz) shall continue to be backup communication for the entire airspace.
To ensure the correct synchronization of messages, controller/pilot dialogues opened by CPDLC
must be closed by CPDLC. Controller/pilot dialogues opened by voice must be closed by voice.
Due to inherent integrity checks and a coded reference to any preceding related message con-
tained within CPDLC messages, a clearance issued by CPDLC requires only the appropriate
CPDLC response, not a read-back as would be required if the clearance had been issued by
voice.
The down link response “WILCO” indicates that the pilot accepts the full terms of the whole uplink
message.
A down link response “AFFIRM” is not an acceptable acknowledgement or reply to a CLEAR-
ANCE issued by CPDLC.
To avoid ambiguity in message handling and response, a CPDLC downlink message should not
contain more than one clearance request.
If multiple clearance requests are contained in a single downlink message and the controller
cannot approve all requests, the uplink message element “UNABLE” will be sent as a response to
the entire message. A separate message containing a response to those requests that can be
complied with will be sent by the controller.
If any ambiguity exists as to the intent of a particular message, clarification must be sought by
voice.
Standard pre-formatted message elements must be used whenever possible. Free text messages
should be used only when an appropriate pre-formatted message element does not exist or to
supplement the pre-formatted message element. The use of free text should be kept to a mini-
mum.
When CPDLC connection is established, aircraft will be instructed to transfer from voice to
CPDLC.
The phraseology used is:
TRANSFER TO LUMPUR CONTROL ON DATA LINK [position];
MONITOR [VHF (Frequencies) ALTERNATE HF Primary/secondary (Frequencies)]
Pilots should then down link a CPDLC position report.
CPDLC Termination
CPDLC connections will be terminated at the FIR boundary position or when entering radar cover-
age. The CONTACT [unit name][frequency] message and the END SERVICE message will be
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - PACIFIC 1209
MALAYSIA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
sent as separate messages. The END SERVICE message will be sent as soon as possible after
receipt of the WILCO response to the CONTACT message.
In cases where the next FIR provide data link services; a Next Data Authority message will be
sent out 30 minutes prior crossing the FIR boundary. Transfer of communication shall be comple-
ted at the FIR boundary.
In cases where the next FIR does not have data link services, CPDLC connections will be termi-
nated at the FIR boundary position.
ADS Procedures
ADS Periodic contracts will be established automatically on receipt of a LOGON. The Periodic
reporting rate is as follows:
a. In Low Traffic Density Area (LTDA) is 300 seconds (5 minutes); and
b. In Medium Traffic Density Area (MTDA) is 600 seconds (10 minutes).
The introduction of ADS application does not affect the current position report procedures.
ADS contracts will be automatically terminated at a system parameter time after aircraft has left
Kuala Lumpur FIR.
Data Link Failure
Pilots recognizing a failure of a CPDLC connection must immediately establish communications
on the appropriate voice frequency. When voice communications have been established, voice
must continue to be used as the primary medium until a CPDLC connection has been re-estab-
lished and the controller has authorized the return to data link.
In the event of an expected CPDLC shutdown, the controller will immediately advise all data link
connected aircraft of the failure by voice. Instructions will continue to be issued by voice until the
return of the data link system. The return of the system to an operational state will require a new
AFN LOGON from the affected aircraft.
redundancy where radar surveillance is already available. The use of ADS-B in the provision of
Air Traffic Services will be introduced in a phased manner.
The operational date for KL FIR ADS-B implementation will be notified by NOTAM.
Phase 1 (31 December 2019)
The surveillance of enroute ATS routes air traffic within certain parts of Kuala Lumpur FIR not
covered by radar surveillance will be implemented. Malaysia plans to mandate the compulsory
requirement for aircraft to carry serviceable ADS-B on 31 December 2019 when operating on ATS
routes N571, P628, L510, P627, L645 and P574 at FL290 to FL410 within airspace bounded by
Kuala Lumpur FIR boundary.
Phase 2 (December 2022)
Under this phase ADS-B will be used as the secondary means of enroute surveillance within the
Kuala Lumpur FIR in addition to radar surveillance.
Phase 3 (December 2022)
Under this phase the installation of ADS-B stations will be used as the secondary means of
enroute surveillance within the Kota Kinabalu FIR in addition to radar surveillance.
Phase 4 (2025)
Under this phase ADS-B will be implemented as the primary means of enroute airspace surveil-
lance.
The use of ADS-B to enhance and improve the provision of surveillance and separation of aircraft
will only be carried out after the quality of data, probability of detection, accuracy, integrity, availa-
bility and coverage area, including communications, have been determined.
Aircraft Operator Approval
The ADS-B equipment must be of an approved type meeting the specifications of ICAO Annex 10

Visual Approach at Night
For a visual approach at night, it is essential that the pilot has the runway lights in sight. Sighting
only of the airport beacon, REIL or approach lights is insufficient.
ATS AIRSPACE
New Zealand has designated:
RNP airspace in the Auckland Oceanic FIR; lower limit FL245, upper limit FL600.
RVSM airspace in the New Zealand FIR and the Auckland Oceanic FIR; lower limit FL290, upper
limit FL410.
PBCS
Performance Based Communications and Surveillance (PBCS) is applied in the Auckland Oce-
anic FIR for the application of reduced performance based separation standards. To be eligible
FANS1/A data-link equipped aircraft must achieve Required Communications Performance
(RCP240) and Required Surveillance Performance (RSP180) standards. FANS1/A aircraft not
meeting RCP240 or RSP180 may operate CPDLC and ADS-C in the Auckland Oceanic FIR but
will not be eligible for the performance based separations.
PBCS operational approval for RCP240 and RSP180 is provided by the State of Registry or State
of operator, as appropriate.
Aircraft operators using FANS1/A CPDLC and ADS-C in the Auckland Oceanic FIR shall register
on the FANS – Central Reporting Agency (CRA) website at http:/www.fans-cra.com and partici-
pate in the regional monitoring and problem reporting programs.
RCP compliance is indicated in item 10 (Equipment) of the ICAO flight plan. All FANS1/A CPDLC

All FANS1/A CPDLC capable aircraft operating in the Auckland Oceanic FIR shall indicate this by
inserting the appropriate descriptor(s) (J2, J3, J4, J5, J6, and/or J7) in item 10a of the flight plan.
The flight crew must notify ATC whenever the aircraft is not PBCS compliant (unable to meet
RCP240 or RSP180) due to equipment failure*.
NOTE: Aircraft operating without SATCOM in the Auckland Oceanic FIR do not meet RCP240 or
RSP180.
RNP
RNP compliance is indicated by inclusion of the letter “R” in item 10 (Equipment) of the ICAO
flight plan when any portion of the flight planned route passes through an active RNP designated
airspace. The performance based navigation levels that can be met are specified in item 18 fol-
lowing the indicator PBN/ using the appropriate designators. Aircraft meeting RNP2 shall indicate
this in item 18 using NAV/RNP2.
Minimum lateral separation between RNP10 aircraft is 50 NM and between RNP4 aircraft is 30
NM as permitted by ICAO Regional Supplementary Procedures (Doc 7030). In all other cases,
100 NM lateral or time-based longitudinal separation will be applied.
ATC will endeavour to accommodate aircraft not meeting RNP criteria within the designated air-
space. Aircraft meeting RNP will be given priority over aircraft not meeting RNP, subject to the
traffic disposition.
b. Respond appropriately to close the message as per the instructions of the controller.
c. The pilot must not act on the delayed uplink message until clarification has been
received from the controller.
Implementation of the uplink delayed message will start on or after 21 June 2018.
For the initial implementation in NZZO the delayed message parameter value will set at 300 sec-
onds.
RVSM
RVSM operational approval is required for aircraft to operate within RVSM airspace. The operator
must determine that the appropriate State Authority has approved the aircraft and that it will meet
the RVSM requirements for the filed route of flight and any planned alternate routes. The letter
“W” must only be inserted in item 10 (Equipment) of the ICAO flight plan if the aircraft has RVSM
operational approval.
Minimum ATC separation between RVSM aircraft is 1000 ft. In all other cases between non-
RVSM aircraft or between a non-RVSM and an RVSM aircraft 2000 ft vertical separation will be
applied.
Within RVSM airspace, RVSM approved aircraft will be given priority for level allocation over non-
RVSM approved civil aircraft. Non-RVSM approved State aircraft will be afforded the same priority
as RVSM approved aircraft.
NON-RVSM OPERATIONS
Civil Aircraft
Operators of non-RVSM approved civil aircraft may flight plan with the intention to operate within,
or transit vertically through, RVSM airspace on an ad hoc basis. This would normally be limited
to an aircraft that:
a. is being delivered for initial acceptance, change of ownership, or lease; or
b. was formerly RVSM approved but has experienced an equipment failure and is being flown
to a maintenance facility for repair to meet RVSM requirements and/or obtain approval, or is
transporting externally a spare engine or strut assembly; or
c. is being utilized for mercy or humanitarian purposes.
They must include “STS/NONRVSM” in item 18 of the ICAO flight plan to indicate their intention
to operate in RVSM airspace.
Civil Aircraft Fuel Requirements
Operators should be aware that flight within, or vertical transit through, RVSM airspace may not
be available and should carry adequate fuel for flight at FL280 or below.
State Aircraft
Operators of non-RVSM approved State aircraft (military, customs or police service) may flight
plan to operate within, or transit vertically through, RVSM airspace.

RULES AND PROCEDURES
They must include “STS/NONRVSM STATE” in item 18 of the ICAO flight plan to advise their
intention to operate in RVSM airspace.
Transponder Mandatory Airspace is designated airspace inside which aircraft are required to
have a transponder operating including Mode C, allowing enhanced performance of ground-
based (e.g. SSR) and airborne (e.g. ACAS) surveillance.
VFR Transit Lanes are part of a CTR which are released as Class G (uncontrolled) airspace
during daylight hours for the purpose of transiting by VFR aircraft within airspace not normally
used by IFR aircraft. When active, no entry clearance is required and VFR flights may operate
without reference to ATC within these lanes.
General Aviation Areas (GAA) are part of a CTR or a CTA which is released as Class G air-
space during daylight hours for the purpose of facilitating VFR operations, including glider and
powered VFR activity. VFR aircraft operating within a GAA should maintain a listening watch on
the applicable ATC frequency unless the GAA has been activated for a specific period for glider,
hang glider or paraglider operations.
Common Frequency Zones (CFZ) have been established to encourage pilots to use a single
VHF frequency specified for the zone. Pilots should transmit their position, altitude and intentions
relevant to prominent reporting points or features at entry, or at other times for traffic safety. CFZ
are not mandatory and are advisory in nature.
Mandatory Broadcast Zones are established to provide increased protection to aircraft in areas
of uncontrolled airspace where high density or special operations may occur. A pilot is required to
broadcast position and intention reports on a specified frequency on entry, when joining an airport
traffic circuit, prior to entering a runway, and at regular specified intervals when operating within
the MBZ. As an extra safety measure, landing lights or anticollision lights must be used when
fitted.
Volcanic Hazard Zones (VHZ) have special conditions that must be complied with before entry
and operation within the airspace. There is no administering authority for entry to volcanic hazard
zones. VHZ are established to provide increased protection to aircraft in an area where volcanic
activity may be present. Operation within a VHZ requires pilots to operate in VMC by day, in order
to be able to observe any volcanic ejecta or ash plume. Pilots intending to operate within a VHZ
must therefore receive relevant NOTAM and SIGMET information.
VHZ provide protection when the volcano source is at Alert Level One. During an increase in vol-
canic activity, permanent VHZ may be increased in size with the full extent of ash cloud being
advised by SIGMET. The lateral and upper vertical limits will be amended in accordance with the
following table, and notification of any change in dimensions will be via NOTAM.
ATC will not clear an aircraft to operate on any route or procedure that infringes the VHZ, unless
specifically requested by the pilot during daylight hours only. Aircraft under radar control will be
vectored clear of the boundary of any VHZ unless specifically requested otherwise by the pilot.
Pilots and operators should amend flight plans as necessary.
Procedures have been adopted in both Auckland Oceanic and New Zealand FIRs to comply with
ICAO ATS classifications Annex 11 TRAFFIC INFORMATION BROADCASTS BY AIRCRAFT
(TIBA), also published in this Airway Manual. Notable clarifications follow.
VHF RTF Frequency to be used for TIBA
VHF RTF Frequency to be used for TIBA in the Auckland Oceanic FIR (NZZO) is 128.95 MHz.
Aircraft within the NZZO FIR should also make position reports to an alternative HF station.
In the New Zealand FIR (NZZC) pilots are to follow frequency instructions issued by ATS. If not
instructed by ATS and there is a complete ATS communication failure, refer to the following TIBA
frequency map.

a. Passes over or through the localizer critical/sensitive area while departing, landing or execut-
ing a missed approach on the same or another runway, or
b. Taxis through the glide path critical/sensitive area for departure.
When a preceding Code E (e.g. B777) or larger wide body aircraft will use the full length to vacate
the runway, ATC will warn the following aircraft on ILS approach by use of the phraseology:
“ILS FLUCTUATIONS MAY BE EXPERIENCED (reason: e.g. “ILS CRITICAL (and/or SENSI-
TIVE) AREA(S) INFRINGED”)”.
To assist in identifying the cause of any anomalous course disturbances pilots should advise ATC
immediately they are observed.
Pilots of aircraft flying coupled approaches should be especially alert in monitoring the automatic
flight control system.
When the critical/sensitive areas are being protected and there is an inadvertent incursion into the
critical/sensitive area by an aircraft or vehicle, ATC will warn the aircraft on ILS approach by use
of the phraseology:
“ILS FLUCTUATIONS MAY BE EXPERIENCED (reason: e.g. “ILS CRITICAL (and/or SENSI-
TIVE) AREA(S) INFRINGED”)”.
PRACTICE AUTO-LANDINGS
Practice auto-land operations may be available at Auckland and Christchurch airports when
weather conditions are better than CAT I ILS minima.
When protection of critical/sensitive areas is not required, pilots wishing to conduct a practice
auto-land must advise ATC of their intention, as early as practicable, in order that ATC is able to
either:
a. Protect the ILS critical and sensitive areas; or
b. Advise that due to traffic protection of ILS critical and sensitive areas will not be provided
using the phraseology:
“ILS CRITICAL AND SENSITIVE AREAS NOT PROTECTED”.

a. when transmitting position reports in accordance with paragraph 5; or
b. when authorized by ATC; or
c. in an emergency.
SELCAL checks by CPDLC equipped aircraft are not required when entering the AYPM FIR. Air-
craft filing a SELCAL code in item 18 of the flight notification will be assumed to have a servicea-
ble SELCAL and to be maintaining SELCAL watch on the primary HF frequency advised in the
MONITOR instruction passed by the transferring CPDLC authority.
When transferring an aircraft from CPDLC to voice as the primary means of communication, flight
crews will be instructed to CONTACT the appropriate frequency.
When crossing an FIR boundary, the transferring ATS unit will instruct the flight crew to either
CONTACT or MONITOR the next ATS unit on the appropriate frequency. When instructed to
MONITOR the next ATS unit, CPDLC will remain the primary means of communication.
Position Reporting
A CPDLC downlink is required to enable Port Moresby ATC to ensure that it is the CPDLC data
authority for the aircraft. To facilitate this, flight crews must send a single CPDLC position report
either:
a. Whenever a new CPDLC connection is established; or
b. On entering the Port Moresby FIR from another FIR.
Following this initial CPDLC position, additional CPDLC or voice position reports are not required
unless specifically requested by ATC. A CPDLC position report is not required when an aircraft is
transferred from voice to CPDLC providing a report was downlinked earlier in accordance with
paragraph above.
For non-identified aircraft, ADS-C reporting fulfills position reporting requirements. In the event of
ADS-C failure, the pilot will be instructed to resume position reporting by either voice or CPDLC
as appropriate.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - PACIFIC 1256
PAPUA NEW GUINEA
RULES AND PROCEDURES
In the event of either a programmed or unexpected CPDLC shutdown, ATC will advise all data
link connected aircraft to re-establish primary communications by voice. The return of the system
to an operational state may require a new logon from affected aircraft. Voice will continue to be
used as the primary means of communication until CPDLC connections are re-established and
ATC has authorized a return to data link communications.

To comply with the requirement of Direct Controller-Pilot Communication (DCPC) when applying
50 NM or 30 NM longitudinal separation, pilot must LOG ON to Controller-Pilot Data Link Commu-
nication (CPDLC) and utilize VHF radio whenever possible. Such Direct Controller-Pilot Commu-
nication (DCPC) shall be maintained at all times when applying these separation minima.
The communication system should support the application of this minima such that it allows the
controller to intervene and resolve a potential conflict:
a. within 4 minutes, using the normal communication means (VHF radio/CPDLC);
b. within 10 1/2 minutes using an alternate source of communication (HF radio) in the event of
normal communication means failure.
The minima shall be applied only between a traffic pair both logged-on to CPDLC. In other cases,
conventional time-based longitudinal separation shall apply, with MNT if deemed appropriate.
The minima shall only be applied between aircraft on the same track.
Separation shall be established by maintaining not less than the specified distance between air-
craft positions reported through the following means:
a. By reference to the same “on track” 1 common point, and whenever possible, ahead of both
aircrafts; or
b. By an automated reporting system.
Controllers shall ensure that the minimum distance exists throughout the period of application of
the minima. When the aircraft are at or are expected to be at minimum applicable distance, con-
trollers shall apply appropriate speed control techniques, such as assigning appropriate Mach
numbers to aircraft.
NOTE 1: The term “on-track” means that the aircraft is flying either directly inbound to or directly
outbound from the station or common point.
NOTE 2: Same identical tracks are special case of same track where the angular difference is
zero degrees.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - PACIFIC 1269

RULES AND PROCEDURES
Pilots must report to Manila Control of any deterioration or failure of either of the following:
1. Navigation system (performance below the navigation requirements for RNP10 or RNP4
operations); or
2. ADS-C/CPDLC.
As soon as such report has been received, the Manila Control shall provide alternative applicable
separation. The change must be coordinated with the unit providing air traffic services in the adja-
cent FIR.
Application of Longitudinal Distance-Based Separation Minima Not Using ADS-C

When an aircraft fails to report its position, the controller shall take action within 3 minutes to
establish communication. If communication is not established within 8 minutes from the time the
report should have been received, the controller shall apply an alternative form of separation.
Controllers are to note that time lag exists between instruction passed and distance reported by
pilot, and if left unchecked might result in a misrepresentation of air situation. As such, controllers
shall exercise discretion in the sequence of requesting such reports. As a general guide, distance
reporting instructions should normally be issued to the front aircraft first.
Controller shall use the phraseology “Report distance [to/from] [position]” for aircraft to report its
distance to or from a common point (‘to’ shall be used when position is an ensuing waypoint).
Applicable Longitudinal Separation
Within designated airspace, or on designated routes, separation minima in accordance with the
provisions may be used.

The implementation of the ADS-C/CPDLC does not affect the current procedures for non-data link
capable aircraft.
The log on is the first step in the data link process. A log on, initiated either by the flight crew or by
another ATS Unit (ATSU), is performed prior to the ATSU establishing a CPDLC and/or ADS-C
connection.
An initial log on request is needed when the aircraft does not have an ADS-C or CPDLC connec-
tion.
The ATS Facilities Notification (AFN) log on is performed by the pilot when:
a. the aircraft is preparing for departure; or
b. the aircraft will enter an area, where data link services are available, from an area where
data link services are not available; or
c. instructed by ATC (e.g. following a failed data link transfer).
The AFN log on address of Manila ACC is “RPHI”.
Aircraft should log on to “RPHI” prior to departing from Ninoy Aquino International Airport or
between 10–25 minutes prior to entering the Manila FIR.
To avoid an automatic rejection of the log on request, the flight crew shall ensure that the flight-
specific information entered into the aircraft system is the same as the corresponding details filed
in the flight plan.
Pilots who are unable to establish a data link connection shall inform ATC on VHF or HF.
Aircraft with ADS/CPDLC connection with RPHI shall send ADS position report upon entering the
FIR boundary.
ADS-C reports fulfill all normal position reporting requirements.
In airspace where both VHF voice and CPDLC services are available, the flight crew should use
VHF as means of communication.
The response to a CPDLC message should be via CPDLC, and a response to voice should be via
voice.
CPDLC Connection Transfer from RPHI to RJJJ/KZAK as appropriate.
RPHI shall terminate the CPDLC connection by:
a. an uplink message of “MONITOR (OR CONTACT) [icaounitname] [frequency] 10 minutes
before the FIR boundary and
b. an uplink message of “END SERVICE” after receiving WILCO from the pilot.
The avionics will downlink a “DISCONNECT” message.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - PACIFIC 1276
PHILIPPINES
RULES AND PROCEDURES
In cases where the next FIR provide data link services, a Next Data Authority (NDA) message will
be sent out 30–35 minutes prior to crossing the FIR boundary. Transfer of communication shall be
completed at the FIR boundary.
In cases where the next FIR does not have data link services, CPDLC connections will be termi-
nated at the FIR boundary position.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
The flight crew shall use whatever means are appropriate (i.e. CPDLC and/or voice) to communi-
cate during an emergency.
When emergency situations are communicated via CPDLC, the controller may respond via
CPDLC. However, the controller may also attempt to make voice contact with the aircraft.
If the emergency situation no longer exists, the pilot should cancel the ADS emergency mode (if
activated).

SOLOMON IS
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Above the highest MSA in turbulent conditions, speed may be increased to the lesser of 280 KIAS
or Mach 0.8.
NOTE: Certain types of propeller-driven aircraft may need to hold at higher speeds.
Aircraft which plan to transit the airspace north of 3° South at any time should, in addition to
establishing communications with Honiara FIS, also attempt to establish communications with
Oakland on HF prior to entering the airspace.
Because the transition altitudes in adjacent FIRs differ from that established in the Solomon Is,
aircraft may be required to effect transition from altitudes to flight levels or vice versa when
departing or entering the Honiara FIR. Such transitions between flight levels and altitudes shall be
made at the FIR boundary.
Night flying facilities are not normally available at aerodromes apart from Honiara/Henderson.
Therefore operations are restricted to the hours between morning and evening twilight. Pilots-in-
command must plan their flight to arrive at their destination in sufficient time to divert to an alter-
nate aerodrome and to land at the alternate within the published hours of availability.
Unless specifically authorized by the Director, VFR flight is not permitted at night.
ALTIMETRY
The Honiara Fir is divided into three area ONH Zones. The lines of division run North/South along
the E 159 degrees and E 163 degrees meridians. The zones are designated, from the West, as
Western, Honiara and Temotu QNH Zones. Cruising altitudes at and below the transition altitude
are based on the Area QNH available through Honiara FIC. Area ONH reports are made at 1900,
2200, 0108, 0400 and 0700 UTC and are valid for the succeeding three hour period.

RULES AND PROCEDURES
No person may operate an aircraft in the airspace underlying Class “B” airspace, or in a VFR cor-
ridor designated through Class “B” airspace, at an indicated airspeed of more than 200 kt (230
mph).
If the minimum safe airspeed for any operation is greater than the maximum speed prescribed in
this section, the aircraft may be operated at that minimum speed.
GPS Overlay Program
As the production of stand-alone GPS approaches has progressed, many of the original overlay
approaches have been replaced with stand-alone procedures specifically designed for use by
GPS systems. A GPS approach overlay allows pilots to use GPS avionics under IFR for flying
designated nonprecision instrument approach procedures, except LOC, LDA, and simplified direc-
tional facility (SDF) procedures. These procedures are identified by the name of the procedure
and “or GPS” (for example, VOR/DME or GPS RWY15). Other previous types of overlays have
either been converted to this format or replaced with stand-alone procedures. Only approaches
contained in the current onboard navigation database are authorized. The navigation database
may contain information about non-overlay approach procedures that is intended to be used to
enhance position orientation, generally by providing a map, while flying these approaches using
conventional NAVAIDs. This approach information should not be confused with a GPS overlay
approach.
GPS IFR Equipment Classes/Categories
Class A — GPS sensor and navigation capability;
Class B — GPS sensor data to an integrated navigation system (i.e., FMS, multisensor naviga-
tion system, etc.);
Class C — GPS sensor data to an integrated navigation system (i.e., FMS, multisensor naviga-
tion system, etc.); which provides enhanced guidance to an autopilot, or flight director, to reduce
flight technical errors. Limited to FAR Part 121 or equivalent criteria.
Equipment Classes A1, B1 and C1 require Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM).
Classes B3 and C3 require an inertial navigation system to provide RAIM equivalent.
Suggested use is to initially key the mike 7 times; this assures that all controlled lights are turned
on to the maximum available intensity. If desired, adjustment can then be made, where the capa-
bility is provided, to a lower intensity (or the REIL turned off) by keying the mike 5 and/or 3 times.
Radio controlled lighting receivers may be set at a low sensitivity requiring the aircraft to be rela-
tively close to activate the system. Consequently, even when lights are on, always key mike as
directed when overflying an airport of intended landing or just prior to entering the final segment of
an approach. This will assure the aircraft is close enough to activate the system and a full 15
minutes of lighting duration is available.
Approved lighting systems may be activated by keying the mike as indicated in the following table:
a. Dependent on aircraft movement, exit/entry into/from Pago Pago will be controlled with issu-
ance of entry/exit via specific waypoints or instructed to remain outside the CTA until a mini-
mum separation standard is achieved.
ALTIMETRY
Within the Samoa QNH zone, when at or below 11,000 feet, aircraft must maintain vertical posi-
tion by reference to the appropriate zone QNH, except that aircraft landing or taking off or operat-
ing within a CTR must use the appropriate aerodrome QNH.
minimum longitudinal separation between turbojet aircraft on the same track, whether in
level, climbing or descending flight shall be:
1. 10 minutes; or
2. between 9 and 5 minutes inclusive, provided that:
the preceding aircraft is maintaining a true Mach number greater than the following air-
craft in accordance with the following:
– 9 minutes, if the preceding aircraft is Mach 0.02 faster than the following aircraft;
– 8 minutes, if the preceding aircraft is Mach 0.03 faster than the following aircraft;
– 7 minutes, if the preceding aircraft is Mach 0.04 faster than the following aircraft;
– 6 minutes, if the preceding aircraft is Mach 0.05 faster than the following aircraft;
– 5 minutes, if the preceding aircraft is Mach 0.06 faster than the following aircraft.
When the 10-minute longitudinal separation minimum with Mach number technique is applied, the
preceding aircraft shall maintain a true Mach number equal to or greater than that maintained by
the following aircraft.
RNAV distance-based separation minima shall not be applied after ATC has received pilot advice
indicating navigation equipment deterioration or failure.
Separation shall be established by maintaining not less than the specified distance between air-
craft positions as reported by reference to RNAV equipment. Direct controller-pilot communica-
tions should be maintained, while such separation is used. Where high frequency or general pur-
pose extended range very high frequency air-ground communication channels are used for area
control service and are worked by air-ground communicators, suitable arrangements shall be
made to permit direct controller-pilot communications, or monitoring by the controller of all air-
ground communications.
To assist pilots to readily provide the required RNAV distance information, such position reports
should, wherever possible, be referenced to a common waypoint ahead of both aircraft.
RNAV distance-based separation may be applied between RNAV-equipped aircraft when operat-
ing on designated RNAV routes or on ATS routes defined by VOR.
A 150km (80 NM) RNAV distance-based separation minimum with Mach number technique may
be used on same-direction tracks in lieu of a 10-minute longitudinal separation minimum with
Mach number technique, provided:
a. each aircraft reports its distance to or from the same “on-track” common point;
b. separation between aircraft at the same level is checked by obtaining simultaneous RNAV
distance readings from the aircraft at frequent intervals to ensure that the minimum will not
be infringed;
c. separation between aircraft climbing or descending is established by obtaining simultaneous
RNAV distance readings from the aircraft; and

ANNEX 2
3.2.5 Operations on and in the Vicinity of an Aerodrome
Unless otherwise authorized or required by ATC, no person may operate an aircraft within a Class
“B”, “C” or “D” surface area except for the purpose of landing at, or taking off, from an airport
within that area.
In addition, no person may, within a Class “B”, “C” or “D” surface area operate an aircraft to, from,
or on an airport having a control tower operated by the United States unless two-way radio com-
munications are maintained between that aircraft and the control tower.
3.3.1.2.2 The United States requires that domestic flight plans be submitted at least thirty
minutes before departure. For International flights, the United States recommends that they be
transmitted so that they are received by ATC authorities in each FIR to be entered, at least two
hours prior to entry, unless otherwise provided in that State’s requirements.
4.2 In the U.S., no person may operate an aircraft beneath the ceiling under VFR within the lat-
eral boundaries of controlled airspace designated to the surface for an airport when the ceiling is
less than 1000 feet. No person may take-off or land an aircraft (other than a helicopter) under
special VFR (SVFR) unless ground visibility is at least 1 statute mile or if ground visibility is not
reported, unless flight visibility is at least 1 statute mile.
The U.S. restricts the ceiling to 1000 feet and ground visibility of 3 miles and greater.
Further differences which exist by virtue of the fact that the Annex contains no comparable stand-
ards for the U.S. national regulations.

a. The regulations covering the selection and use of alternate airports in respect to ceiling and
visibility minima, require that:
Unless otherwise authorized by the FAA Administrator, no person may include an alternate
airport in an IFR flight plan unless current weather forecasts indicate that, at the estimated
time of arrival at the alternate airport, the ceiling and visibility at that airport will be at or
above the alternate airport weather minima.
b. Operation under IFR in Class “A”, “B”, “C”, “D”, or “E” airspace malfunction reports:
1. The pilot-in-command of each aircraft operated in Class “A”, “B”, “C”, “D” or “E” airspace
under IFR shall report as soon as practical to ATC any malfunctions of navigational,
approach, or communication equipment occurring in flight.
2. In each report the pilot-in-command shall include:
(a) aircraft identification.
(b) equipment affected.
(c) degree to which the capability of the pilot to operate under IFR in the ATC system
is impaired; and
(d) nature and extent of assistance desired from ATC.
4.3 The U.S. does not prohibit VFR flight between sunset and sunrise.
Appendix 1 — Signals, 4.1.1
The flashing white signal to aircraft in flight, meaning “Land at this aerodrome and proceed to
apron” is not used in the United States.
In addition, the alternating red and green signal to aircraft on the ground or in flight means “Exer-
cise extreme caution”.

RNAV 2 requires that aircraft operating in surveillance areas meet the GNSS requirements.
Approval Process
The Director General of Civil Aviation has established requirements and procedures for aircraft
which apply the RNAV 2 operation.
The State of Registry or State of Operator, as appropriate, is the authority which is responsible for
approval to operate on RNAV 2 routes.
The operator shall establish:
a. In flight operating drills that include mandatory cross-checking procedures to identify naviga-
tion errors in sufficient time to prevent aircraft from inadvertent deviation from ATC cleared
routes;
b. Programs that provide for the continued airworthiness of aircraft navigation systems neces-
sary to navigate to the degree of accuracy required and programs to mitigate the occurrence
of large navigational errors due to equipment malfunction or operational errors;
c. Programs that provide for the continued airworthiness of aircraft navigation systems neces-
sary to navigate to the degree of accuracy required.
Operator/pilot responsibilities for flight planning are as follows:
a. Aircraft and operators should be approved by the State of Registry or State of Operator to
operate in routes where RNAV 2 is specified.
b. Pilots must advise ATC of any deterioration or failure of navigation systems below the navi-
gation requirements for RNAV 2.
c. An aircraft that is unable to meet the minimum navigation requirements for RNAV 2 shall not
file a flight plan to operate on ATS Routes T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, T8, T10, T15, T16, T17,
T18, T19 and T20, and shall plan on a conventional route.
If the RNAV 2 route is specified in item 15 (flight plan route), the operator/pilot shall mention the
appropriate navigation system’s capabilities in item 10a (navigation), 10b (surveillance) and item
18 (other information).

EXAMPLE: At night, when approach and runway lights are in operation, the reported meteorologi-
cal visibility is 1200m and the required minimum for the approach is a CMV of 1600m. 1200m x 2
= 2400m, which is above the required CMV of 1600m.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1321
JAPAN
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Take-off Minimums
Take-off minima are as follows:
a. If RVR closest to the start point of the take-off run is reported, the RVR must be applied at
least. If the RVR closest to the start point of the take-off run is not reported, VIS must be
applied.
b. Operators can determine whether to apply other RVS(s) in addition to the RVR mentioned a)
above or not. When multiple RVRs are applied, all related RVR values must be above the
minima.
c. For night operations, runway edge and end lights (which indicates DER) must be in opera-
tion.
Planning Minimums
When a take-off alternate airport is not filed, the ceiling and visibility to be used as take-off mini-
mums are equivalent to the DH/MDH and visibility of the instrument approach procedures availa-
ble at the airport of departure.
Circling
Circling minimums are normally charted on the Japanese instrument approach chart. The mini-
mums shown in Table 4 are the lowest permissible circling minimums. Circling minimums are
never below straight-in minimums. The circling area does not correspond with the dimensions
published by ICAO.
NOTE: When runway threshold lights are u/s, they can be temporarily replaced with REIL.
ILS CAT II
Visual Reference
An approach may not be continued below DH unless at least one of the following visual referen-
ces for the intended runway is distinctly visible and identifiable to the pilot:
– A segment of at least 3 consecutive lights being the centerline of the approach lights,
– The touchdown zone lights,
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1325
JAPAN
RULES AND PROCEDURES
– Climb at speed to gain maximum climb angle (or as limited by body angle), e.g., V2 + 10 kts or
1.3Vs, whichever is greater.
After passing altitude not less than 800 ft AGL:
– Decrease aircraft body angle/angle of pitch while maintaining a positive rate of climb, acceler-
ate towards Vzf and either:
a. reduce power with the initiation of the first flap/slat retraction; or
b. reduce power after flap/slat retraction.
– To 3000 ft AGL maintain a positive rate of climb, and accelerate to and maintain a climb speed
of Vzf + 10 to 20 kts.
After passing altitude not less than 3000 ft AGL:
– Transition to normal enroute climb speed.
Thrust Cutback Climb Procedure
This is a procedure in which flight is made over noise sensitive areas with low noise levels.
Engine power is reduced after reaching a certain altitude to the extent that flight safety is not com-
promised. Once the noise sensitive area is passed, engine power is reapplied and the aircraft
continues a normal climb.
A typical example of this procedure for a jet transport aircraft is:
a. Take off to 1000 ft AGL:
– Take off thrust;
– Take off flaps or optimum flap setting for noise reduction;
– Climb at a speed to gain maximum climb angle (or as limited by body angle), e.g., V2 + 10
kt or 1.3Vs whichever is greater.
b. At 1000 ft AGL:
– Reduce thrust enough to maintain level flight with one engine inoperative;
– Flaps and speed same as a. above.
c. At 4000 ft AGL or after passing noise sensitive areas:
– Establish climb thrust;
– Accelerate and retract flaps on schedule to enroute climb.
Reduced Flap Setting Procedure
This is a procedure in which the landing is made with a shallower than normal landing flap angle
where there is a sufficient margin of runway length. The ground noise level is reduced in propor-
tion to engine power decrease due to the reduction of aerodynamic drag.
A typical example of this procedure for a jet transport aircraft is:
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1328
JAPAN
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Use, as the final landing flap setting, the minimum certificated landing flap setting (one setting
less than full flaps in the case of an airplane with several approved landing settings) set forth in
the approved performance section of the Airplane Flight Manual for the applicable conditions.
Delayed Flap Approach
This is a procedure which delays flap operation during approach within a range which does not
sacrifice flight safety. Ground noise levels, as in the reduced flap setting procedure, can be
reduced by engine power decrease due to aerodynamic drag reduction.
A typical example of this procedure for a jet transport aircraft is:
Extend final landing flaps after passing 1500 ft AGL or after passing the outer marker, whichever
is at the lowest altitude.
Reverse Thrust Restriction
In order to reduce aircraft noise, pilots may be requested to limit the use of reverse thrust to idle
reverse after landing, unless it adversely affects the safety of aircraft operations.
Preferential Runway
This is a procedure which may be used when one end of a runway is in an area not adversely
affected by aircraft noise, such as adjacent to water, etc. Takeoff and landing are preferentially
made at that end of the runway, in principle when a tailwind component, including gust effect, is
not greater than 5 kt and a crosswind component, including gust, is not greater than 15 kt (see
NOTE 1) and as long as passengers are not overly inconvenienced. In order to achieve maximum
safety, this procedure is not to be applied under the following circumstances:
a. When the condition of the specified runway is not suitable for landing or takeoff (see NOTE
2).
b. When the pilot-in-command determines that the use of another runway is necessary in con-
sideration of the safety of his aircraft operation.
c. When the possibility exists that orderly flow of traffic may be impeded.
d. The use of another runway is considered especially necessary for the purpose of special
training, inspection of navigational facilities, etc.
NOTE 1: The tailwind and crosswind values should be considered guidelines. In normal
cases a current jet transport can safely takeoff and land on a runway with good surface con-
ditions, as far as their performance is concerned, with a tailwind component of up to 10 kt
and a crosswind component of up to 25 kt.
NOTE 2: For example, braking action may be decreased due to adverse conditions of the
runway such as wet surface, snow, etc.
Noise Preferential Routes
In order to reduce aircraft noise in the vicinity of the airport, Noise Preferential Routes are estab-
lished to be applied during climb following take-off or approach for landing when overflying noise
sensitive area, unless it affects the safety of aircraft operations.

Deviations from ATC Clearances and Instructions in Compliance with a Wind Shear Alert
When the pilot of aircraft equipped with a wind shear alert system intends to execute wind shear
escape in Fukuoka FIR and encounters difficulty in complying with ATC clearance and instruction,
the pilot shall notify ATC unit of the condition as immediately as possible, workload permitting.
NOTE: Without pilot's notification, ATC unit is unable to be aware that the pilot is deviating from
ATC clearance and instruction in order to execute wind shear escape. Accordingly, pilot’s notifica-
tion is important to prevent ATC unit from issuing the clearance and instruction contrary to the
escape maneuver.
In order to maintain optimum separation with correlated traffic, pilot shall limit the deviations of the
flight paths or altitude to a minimum extent necessary to comply with the wind shear alert.
When a deviation from ATC clearance and instruction is initiated and then the threat no longer
exists, pilot shall return to the last assigned ATC clearance and instruction as long as feasible and
notify ATC unit of the circumstance. If the return is difficult, pilot is expected to request further
instruction after the immediate notification that the escape maneuver has been completed and
how their flight conditions are.
NOTE: ATC is unable to issue instruction or clearance unless the prescribed separation is
secured when a pilot requests further instruction or clearance. In this case, only traffic information
will be provided to the pilot.

Once an aircraft deviates from ATC clearance and instruction in compliance with a wind shear
alert, the controller is not responsible for providing prescribed separation between the aircraft exe-
cuting the escape maneuver and any other aircraft.
Controller’s responsibility for providing separation for all affected aircraft resumes when the pilot
informs a controller that wind shear escape maneuver is completed and the controller confirms
that the prescribed separation is reestablished.

e. Keep the SSR transponder on at all times.
Special Procedures for Aircraft Requiring Rapid Descent and/or Turn-back or Diversion to
an Alternate Airport due to Aircraft System Malfunction or Other Contingencies
Initial Action
If unable to comply with the above provisions to obtain a revised ATC clearance, the aircraft
should leave its assigned route or track by turning at least 30 degrees right or left whenever this is
possible. The direction of the turn should be determined by the position of the aircraft relative to
any organized route or track system (for example, whether the aircraft is outside, at the edge of,
or within the system). Other factors to consider are terrain clearance and the levels allocated to
adjacent routes or tracks.
Subsequent Action
AIRCRAFT ABLE TO MAINTAIN LEVEL
An aircraft able to maintain its assigned level should acquire and maintain in either direction a
track laterally separated by 5 NM from its assigned route or track and once established on the
offset track, climb or descend 500 ft (150m).
AIRCRAFT UNABLE TO MAINTAIN LEVEL
An aircraft NOT able to maintain its assigned level should, whenever possible, minimize its rate of
descent while turning to acquire and maintain in either direction a track laterally separated by 5
NM from its assigned route or track. For subsequent level flight, a level should be selected which
differs by 500 ft (150m) from those normally used.
DIVERSION ACROSS THE FLOW OF ADJACENT TRAFFIC
Before commencing a diversion across the flow of adjacent traffic, the aircraft should, while main-
taining the 5 NM offset, expedite climb above or descent below levels where the majority of
Pacific oceanic traffic operate (for example, to a level above FL400 or below FL290) and then
maintain a level which differs by 500 ft (150m) from those normally used. However, if the pilot is
unable or unwilling to carry out a major climb or descent, the aircraft should be flown at a level
500 ft above or below levels normally used until a new ATC clearance is obtained.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1336
JAPAN
RULES AND PROCEDURES
h. If contact was not established prior to deviating, continue to attempt to contact ATC to obtain
a clearance. If contact was established, continue to keep ATC advised of intentions and
obtain essential traffic information.
NOTE: Paragraphs b. and c. above call for the pilot to broadcast aircraft position and pilot’s inten-
tions, identify conflicting traffic, and communicate air-to-air with nearby aircraft. If the pilot deter-
mines that there is another aircraft at or near the same FL with which his aircraft might conflict,
then the pilot is expected to adjust the path of the aircraft, as necessary, to avoid conflict.
NOTE: Restating a previously assigned altitude is considered an assignment of the new altitude.

out entering the holding pattern if the approach track to the facility or fix is within a 60° sector, 30°
on either side of:
a. the initial track of the descent procedure; or
b. the inbound holding track, where a reversal turn shown on the approach chart must be com-
pleted prior to commencing an instrument approach.
NOTE: Outside controlled airspace and within 25 NM of the facility or fix, an aircraft whose
initial approach track is outside the 60° sector described above may diverge to intercept a
track within the 60° sector.
OPERATING PROCEDURES
RNP10 capability is required for operations on L524, L877 and M506 within Yangon FIR.
Pilots must advise ATC of any deterioration or failure of navigation systems for RNP10 capability.
ATC shall then provide alternative separation and/or routing.
Aircraft meeting RNP10 navigation requirements shall indicate /R in Item 10a of the ICAO Flight
Plan or indicate /R in Item 10a and indicate PBN/A1 in Item 18.
Uni‐directional air traffic flow are applied on L524, L877 and M506 as follows:
The following rules and procedures are adopted in the interest of national security to enable iden-
tification as early as possible of air traffic entering the Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) in
the Republic of the Union of Myanmar.
No flight of any aircraft either originating in or penetrating into the ADIZ will be permitted without
Air Defense Clearance. The procedure for obtaining this clearance is as follows:
a. Flight plan to be filed 30 minutes before take-off and include ETA at ADIZ boundary and
route and altitude within ADIZ. In-flight changes for entry are not allowed except in emer-
gency.
b. Except for local flights conducted in the immediate vicinity of an aerodrome, all aircraft oper-
ating to, through or within the ADIZ shall obtain Air Defense Clearance (ADC) through the Air
Traffic Control Center.
c. ADC shall be valid for the entire flight within ADIZ irrespective of intermediate halts for flights
originating in or transiting the ADIZ.
d. For flights originating within the ADIZ, ADC shall be obtained before departure and in the
event of departure being delayed for more than 30 minutes a new ADC shall be obtained.
e. In respect of East bound flight conducted along the airways penetrating the ADIZ, aircraft
shall, on first contact with the ATCC at the FIR boundary request the ADC giving the estima-
ted time over the ADIZ boundary.
f. In respect of West bound flight conducted along the airways penetrating the ADIZ, aircraft
shall, on first contact with the ATCC at the FIR boundary request an ADC only.
g. In respect of all flights conducted off airways, aircraft shall contact ATCC at least 10 minutes
before entering the ADIZ giving the ETA over the ADIZ boundary and requesting ATC.
Unless otherwise specifically authorized by the Director General, a pilot-in-command holding the
required instrument rating and flying an aircraft equipped for instrument flight, shall comply with
the Instrument Flight Rules even when not operating in IMC, when conducting a flight under any
of the following conditions:
a. in weather conditions other than those specified for Visual Meteorological Conditions;
b. above FL150;
c. by night;
d. over the sea at a distance of more than 20 NM from the land for more than one (1) hour;
e. in any other conditions which do not permit compliance with VFR;
f. at transonic and supersonic speeds.
A pilot in command shall obtain a clearance to taxi before leaving the parked position. This taxi
clearance will govern entrance to, and movement on, the taxiways but will not relate to movement
on the apron areas. Nevertheless, available essential information about other aircraft moving on
the same apron area will be given to any aircraft calling for taxi clearance.
Whenever an engine of a turbo-jet aircraft is operating on the ground, the aircraft anti-collision
light(s) shall be displayed.
Pilots of other aircraft should appreciate that the display on the ground of anti-collision lights by a
turbo-jet aircraft means that at least one of its engines is operating. They should ensure, there-
fore, that when maneuvering near these aircraft, they do so at a safe distance from the jet efflux.
Military turbo-jet aircraft should always be treated with caution as these aircraft may not display
anti-collision lights on the ground even though under power.
A pilot in command for whom a runway has been nominated for take-off, shall regard the taxi
clearance limit to be:
a. for piston-engined aircraft—the holding bay, if provided, otherwise the holding point for the
runway; and
b. for turbine-engined aircraft or aircraft which have reported “READY” before reaching the
holding bay—the holding point for the runway.
A separate clearance must be obtained before crossing or entering any runway by day or a
runway illuminated as a runway by night.
A pilot wishing to use less than the full length of the run available, shall nominate his intention to
the controller when requesting taxi instructions.
The Altimeter Setting Procedures in use conform to those contained in ICAO Doc. 8168–OPS/
611/3.
QFE altimeter settings are available on request.
The ATFMU utilises the automated, web based Bay of Bengal Cooperative ATFM System
(BOBCAT) system in meeting its ATFM responsibilities. These responsibilities will be managed in
coordination with aircraft operators and Department Civil Aviation Myanmar in the FIRs con-
cerned.

Flights who plan to enter Kabul FIR without an ATFM slot allocation – CTOT, CTO at Kabul FIR
entry waypoint, allocated flight level, and allocated ATS route – will be accommodated only after
flights with slots have been processed. Such flights should expect delayed pushback and start
clearances, non-preferred routes and/or flight levels, enroute holding and/or diversion around
Kabul FIR.
In order to ensure availability of slots for westbound departures from designated airports in north-
ern India and Pakistan, departures from these airports are given priority for FL280 in the slot allo-
cation. This does not preclude these flights from requesting higher flight levels with initial slot
request.
– Urgent medical evacuation flights or humanitarian flights specifically declared by State medical
authorities that flight delays would put the life of patients aboard at risk; and
– Flights with “Head of State” status.
NOTE: After medical flights have completed their mission, they should be subject to ATFM meas-
ures. Scheduled passenger transfer flights are, by their nature, non-urgent and should not be
given priority under normal operational situation.
Flights exempted from ATFM procedures shall indicate the exemption in their flight plan (Field 18
– ATFM EXMP).
Yangon ACC and aerodrome AIS Unit shall forward the flight plan information to the Bangkok
ATFMU at AFTN address VTBBZDZX.
As BOBCAT will allocate FL280 on a priority basis to facilitate departures from northern India and
Pakistan underneath over-flying traffic, flights departing these airports are encouraged to include
FL280 as at least one slot request preference.
Flights that were not allocated a slot in the initial slot allocation, are not satisfied with the allocated
slot or did not submit a slot request should select slots from the listing of remaining unallocated
slots available immediately after slot distribution has been completed.
Slot Allocation and Distribution
Slot allocation will commence at the cut-off time at 1200 UTC. BOBCAT will process and generate
the slot allocation based on the information submitted in the slot requests. Notification of slot allo-
cation will be made not later than 1230 UTC via the ATFMU website. Alternative arrangements for
notification of slot distribution (e.g. E-mail, Fax, and Telephone) should be coordinated with the
ATFMU.
After the slot allocation has been published at https://www.bobcat.aero, aircraft operators can:
a. Use the slot allocation result for ATS flight planning purposes,
b. Cancel the allocated slot and/or,
c. Change slot allocation to another available slot in the published list of unallocated slots.
Submission of ATS Flight Plan
Once aircraft operators are in receipt of the slot allocation, they shall submit the ATS flight plan
using the time, ATS route and flight level parameters of the BOBCAT allocated slot.
In addition to normal AFTN addressees, operators should also address flight plan (FPL) and rela-
ted ATS messages (e.g. DLA, CNL, CHG) to the ATFMU via AFTN address VTBBZDZX for all
flights that have submitted a slot request.
Prior to departure, in circumstances where it becomes obvious that the Kabul slot time will not be
met, a new slot allocation should be obtained as soon as possible and via the most expeditious
means (e.g. via coordination between flight dispatcher, PIC, Yangon ACC and Bangkok ATFMU).
Early advice that the Kabul slot time will be missed also enables the slots so vacated to be effi-
ciently reassigned to other flights.
Prior to departure, in the event that the aircraft is unable to meet the Kabul slot time, when
requested by the PIC after the aircraft has left the gate Yangon ACC shall assist the PIC to coor-
dinate with the ATFMU for a revised slot allocation.
Bangkok ATFMU (VTBBZDZX) shall be included in the list of AFTN addressees for NOTAMs
regarding any planned activities that may affect slot availability (e.g. reservation of airspace/
closure of airspace, non-availability of routes, etc.).
Bangkok ATFMU (VTBBZDZX) shall be included in the list of AFTN addressees for ATS mes-
sages (e.g. FPL, DEP, DLA, CHG, CNL) relating to flights subject to ATFM procedures.
A missed slot results in dramatically increased coordination workload for ATC and PIC and should
be avoided. To minimize coordination workload in obtaining a revised slot allocation, the following
procedures are recommended:
a. If the flight is still at the gate, coordination should take place via operators/flight dispatchers
to ATFMU;
b. If the flight has left the gate, coordination to ATFMU may also take place via the ATS unit
presently communicating with the flight.
GENERAL
Aircraft in flight or operating on the maneuvering area of an airport shall comply with the general
flight rules applicable to the operation of aircraft (Annex 2). Additionally, aircraft in flight shall
comply with Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) or Visual Flight Rules (VFR). An aircraft operating
between the hours of sunset and sunrise, irrespective of weather conditions shall comply with IFR
requirements or, if in a control zone during these hours, shall require special authorization from
ATC.

STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1358
SINGAPORE
RULES AND PROCEDURES
SPEED RESTRICTIONS
Speed control procedures are in force unless notified otherwise by ATC or on ATIS.
All arriving turboprop and turbojet aircraft are to fly not faster than indicated air speed 250 kts
when within 40 NM from airports in Singapore or when at or below 10,000 ft. Aircraft cleared on
RNAV STARS must comply with the published speed restrictions and transitions unless otherwise
instructed by ATC.
All arrivals into Singapore Changi Airport instructed to intercept the final approach course, are to
maintain 180 kts by 8 NM from touchdown, and thereafter 150 kts till 4 NM from touchdown.
Pilots who are unable to comply with the speed limits specified above for reasons of flight safety
and/or weather must provide timely notifications to ATC and state the acceptable speed(s) which
is appropriate.
15 minutes longitudinal separation minimum shall be applied on these ATS routes between air-
craft which cannot comply with RNAV procedures mentioned above.
NOTE: The longitudinal separation minimum for aircraft operating between Singapore and Jakarta
airports on airways B470 and G579 is 10 minutes irrespective of whether they are RNAV-equip-
ped.
Additionally, to facilitate reduction of separation between suitably equipped aircraft, ATC separa-
tion minima based on RNP 4 navigation specification will be applied accordingly for aircraft which
are approved for RNP 4 operations on the following segments of RNAV routes which fall within
the Singapore FIR:
NOTE: Conformance monitoring shall be ensured by establishing an ADS-C event contract speci-
fying a lateral deviation change event with a maximum of 5 NM threshold and a waypoint change
event.
RCP240 and RSP180 performance specifications shall be required for the application of the Per-
formance-Based Longitudinal Separation Minima in accordance with ICAO Doc 4444 PANS-ATM
paragraph 5.4.2.9.2.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1361
SINGAPORE
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Pilots shall inform ATC of any deterioration or failure of the navigation systems below the naviga-
tion requirements for RNP 10. ATC shall then provide alternative separation and/or alternative
routing.
For details of PBCS refer to Jeppesen ATC — PERFORMANCE BASED COMMUNICATION
AND SURVEILLANCE (PBCS) — DOC 9869.
SEPARATION MINIMA
Lateral Separation Minima
60 NM lateral separation minima will be applied between aircraft which are approved for RNP 10,
operating at or above FL290, on RNAV routes L644 and M772.
50 NM lateral separation minima will be applied between aircraft which are approved for RNP 10
operations on RNAV routes L625, L642, L649, M635, M767, M771, M774, N884 and N892.
23 NM lateral separation minima will be applied between aircraft which are approved for RNP 4
operations on RNAV routes M767 and N884.
When an aircraft not meeting the RNP 10 navigation requirements is approved to operate at or
above FL290, on the ATS routes shown above, vertical separation shall be applied with aircraft
operating on adjacent routes.
Longitudinal Separation
80 NM RNAV or 10 minutes (or less) Mach Number Technique (MNT) separation minima may be
applied between aircraft in situations where DCPC could not be maintained or when RCP240/
RSP180 performance requirement could not be complied.
NOTE: The maximum ADS-C periodic reporting interval of 12 minutes shall be used for RNP 4
approved aircraft.
50 NM longitudinal separation may be applied between RNP 10 approved aircraft on RNAV
routes L642, L762, M635, M767, M771, M774 and N884 which either LOGON to CPDLC or are
within VHF radio range.
30 NM longitudinal separation may be applied between RNP 4 approved aircraft on RNAV routes
M767 and N884 which are LOGON to CPDLC.
LOGON PROCEDURES
The AFN LOGON address for the Singapore FIR is WSJC.
To avoid automatic rejection of the LOGON, the flight identification number used by the pilot in the
LOGON process must be identical to the flight identification number filed in the flight plan.
A LOGON must be received from the aircraft before any data link connections can be initiated by
the ground system. This is achieved via the ATS facility notification (AFN) LOGON process to be
initiated by the pilot in accordance with company procedures.
Aircraft requesting data link services inbound to Singapore FIR are required to manually LOGON
onto WSJC at least 10 minutes prior to the estimated time for entering Singapore FIR. Data link
equipped aircraft departing from airports within the Singapore FIR and requesting data link may
LOGON to WSJC prior to departure. Pilots who are unable to establish a data link connection are
to inform ATC on VHF or HF RTF.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1363
SINGAPORE
RULES AND PROCEDURES
Pilots are reminded to provide the flight level on first contact with HF, including when established
on data link.
APPLICATION OF CPDLC
Aircraft operating outside radar coverage and not in the ADS-B exclusive airspace within the Sin-
gapore FIR shall establish contact with ATC using CPDLC as a primary means of communication
except for the following:
a. prior instruction to contact ATC on VHF;
b. receive notice that CPDLC service is not available; and
c. during data link outage.
To ensure the correct synchronization of messages, controller/pilot dialogues opened by CPDLC
must be closed by CPDLC. Controller/pilot dialogues opened by voice must be closed by voice.
Due to inherent integrity checks and a coded reference to any preceding related message con-
tained within CPDLC messages, a clearance issued by CPDLC requires only the appropriate
CPDLC response, not a read-back as would be required if the clearance had been issued by
voice.
The down link response “WILCO” indicates that the pilot accepts the full terms of the whole uplink
message.
A down link response “AFFIRM” is not an acceptable acknowledgement or reply to a CLEAR-
ANCE issued by CPDLC.
To avoid ambiguity in message handling and response, a CPDLC downlink message should not
contain more than one clearance request.
If multiple clearance requests are contained in a single downlink message and the controller
cannot approve all requests, the uplink message element “UNABLE” will be sent as a response to
the entire message. A separate message containing a response to those requests that can be
complied with will be sent by the controller.
If any ambiguity exists as to the intent of a particular message, clarification must be sought by
voice.
Standard pre-formatted message elements must be used whenever possible. Free text messages
should be used only when an appropriate pre-formatted message element does not exist or to
supplement the pre-formatted message element. The use of free text should be kept to a mini-
mum.
When CPDLC connection is established, aircraft will be instructed to transfer from voice to
CPDLC. The phraseology used is:
TRANSFER TO SINGAPORE CONTROL ON DATA LINK [position];
MONITOR [HF frequency primary/secondary].
Pilots should down link a CPDLC position report upon position over first compulsory reporting
point when aircraft enters Singapore FIR. Pilots are also required to make AIREPs at ATS/MET
reporting points using CPDLC regardless of ADS connection.
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1364
SINGAPORE
RULES AND PROCEDURES
CPDLC connections will be terminated at the FIR boundary position or when entering radar cover-
age. The CONTACT [unit name] [frequency] message and the END SERVICE message will be
sent as separate messages. The END SERVICE message will be sent as soon as possible after
receipt of the WILCO response to the CONTACT message.
APPLICATION OF ADS
ADS Periodic contracts will be established automatically on receipt of a LOGON.
The Periodic reporting rate is 10 minutes for aircraft operating outside radar coverage and 20
minutes for aircraft operating within radar coverage.
For ADS logged-on aircraft, CPDLC position reports are not required except when the following
event occurs:
a. upon position over first compulsory reporting point when aircraft enters Singapore FIR;
b. aircraft at ATS/MET reporting point.
ADS contracts will be terminated automatically at a system parameter time after the aircraft has
left the Singapore FIR.

ate ADS-B designator in Item 10 of the ICAO flight plan:
– B1 ADS-B with dedicated 1090 MHz ADS-B “out” capability;
– B2 ADS-B with dedicated 1090 MHz ADS-B “out” and “in” capability.
Aircraft operators are to include the aircraft address (24 Bit Code) in hexadecimal format in Item
18 of the ICAO flight plan as per the following example:
– CODE/7C432B
Aircraft Identification (ACID) not exceeding 7 characters must be accurately indicated in Item 7 of
the ICAO flight plan and replicated exactly when set in the aircraft avionics (for transmission as
Flight ID) as follows, which must be either:
a. The three-letter ICAO designator of the aircraft operator followed by the flight number (e.g.
SIA123, MAS123, GIA123), when radiotelephony callsign consists of the associated ICAO
telephony designator for the aircraft operator followed by the flight number (e.g. SINGA-
PORE 123, MALAYSIAN 123, INDONESIA 123).
or
b. The aircraft registration (e.g. N555AB, 9VABC) when the radiotelephony callsign consists of
the aircraft registration.
Important: ACID entered should not have any leading zeros unless it is part of the flight number
as indicated in Item 7 of the ICAO flight plan. Hyphens, dashes or spaces are NOT to be used.
State Aircraft
The conditions stipulated apply to STATE aircraft intending to operate within the delineated air-
space.
Inflight Contingencies
The pilot-in-command, upon awareness of an onboard ADS-B equipment failure, must inform
ATC as soon as possible. ATC would then provide the necessary clearance to ensure separation

P628 and P574 will be cleared to FL280. Succeeding aircraft on the same route will be cleared to
FL280 with 10 minutes longitudinal separation provided there is no closing speed with the preced-
ing aircraft. Additional longitudinal separation as appropriate shall be provided by ATC for the
faster aircraft following a slower aircraft on the same route.
For aircraft on N571 or N571/N877, the first aircraft from Singapore or Kuala Lumpur to be over
GUNIP can expect its requested flight level.
For aircraft on M770, the first aircraft from Singapore or Kuala Lumpur to be over the Kuala
Lumpur / Bangkok FIR boundary can expect its requested flight level.
For aircraft on L759, the first aircraft from Singapore or Kuala Lumpur to be over the Kuala
Lumpur / Bangkok FIR boundary can expect its requested flight level.
For aircraft on P628, the first aircraft from Singapore or Kuala Lumpur to be over VPL can expect
its requested flight level.
For aircraft going beyond Medan on ATS route L762, FL280 and FL300 may be assigned. Suc-
ceeding aircraft on the same route will be cleared to FL280 or FL300 with 10 minutes longitudinal
separation provided there is no closing speed with the preceding aircraft. Additional longitudinal
separation as appropriate shall be provided by ATC for the faster aircraft following a slower air-
craft on the same route.
ALTIMETRY
A common transition altitude of 11,000 ft (3350 meters) has been established in the Singapore
Flight Information Region. This will ensure uniformity in the transition altitudes for airports within
the territories of Brunei, Malaysia and Singapore, except for an area of radius 10 nautical miles
centered on Mount Kinabalu where the lowest safe altitude will be 15,000 ft (4570 meters) and the
lowest usable flight level will be FL170.
QFE altimeter setting will be made available on request but reports to ATC will be made in alti-
tudes.
It is the pilots' responsibility to select a flight level which will give adequate terrain clearance using
forecast pressure information.
NOTE: VFR flights within the Singapore FIR are permitted to operate only up to FL200.
If compliance with VFR cannot be maintained at a quadrantal cruising level, the aircraft shall be
flown at another quadrantal level where it is possible to comply with VFR.
The pilot-in-command shall ensure that the cruising level selected for an IFR flight is not below
the lowest safe flight level applicable for the route to be flown.
NOTE: The provision of terrain clearance is not part of ATC service.
Except when taking-off or landing, or with the approval of the appropriate authority, aircraft shall
be flown at least 1000 ft above the highest obstacle within 10km of the estimated position of the
aircraft in flight.

When ATFM measures are applied, the Singapore ATFM Unit (ATFMU) will assign Calculated
Take-Off Times (CTOTs) to flights departing from the airports listed in the paragraph above plan-
ning to arrive into Singapore Changi Airport.
Airspace users (AUs) and ATS units (ATSUs) are advised to refer to the Air Traffic Flow Manage-
ment (ATFM) Portal to access CTOTs and/or other pertinent ATFM information via the Civil Avia-
tion Authority Singapore (CAAS) Webpage, link provided: http://www.caas.gov.sg/e-services/air-
traffic-flow-management.
Compliance to CTOT during the ATFM operation is important; it contributes to the realization of
the ATFM plan. It would assist in the reduction of the need for tactical airborne delay, promoting a
safer and more efficient operating environment for aircraft operators (AOs) and AUs.
All airspace users planning to arrive into WSSS shall:
a. file and submit FPLs at least 3 hours before the Estimated Off Block Time (EOBT);
b. transmit the appropriate ATS messages (CHG/DLA) when the EOBT changes by more than
15 minutes; and
c. transmit CNL message if the flight is cancelled after the submission of FPL.
FPLs and ATS messages should be addressed to WSJCZQZX.
Flights that plan to enter Kabul FIR without an ATFM slot allocation will be accommodated only
after flights with slots have been processed. Such flights should expect delayed pushback and
start clearances, non-preferred routes and/or flight levels, enroute holding and/or diversion around
Kabul FIR.
The following flights are exempted from the ATFM procedures:
a. Flights experiencing an emergency, including aircraft subjected to unlawful interference;
b. Flights on search and rescue or firefighting missions;
c. Urgent medical evacuation flights or humanitarian flights specifically declared by State medi-
cal authorities that flight delays would put the life of patients aboard at risk; and

AIRCRAFT REQUIREMENTS
Aircraft need to be equipped with Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System
(ACARS) to support DCL application and be compliant with the European Organisation for Civil
Aviation Equipment (EUROCAE) ED-85A (Data Link Application System Document (DLASD) for
the DCL datalink service) and ARINC Specification 623-3.
e. Flights with allocated Calculated Take-Off Time (CTOT) under Bay of Bengal Cooperative
Air Traffic Flow Management (BOBCAT).
DCL message format does not include the requested cruising level and final cruising level.
a. The planned flight level (PFL) filed in flight plan field 15b will be used as requested level
unless otherwise specified by pilot.
b. Final cruising level will be assigned by Singapore ATC after airborne and it is subjected to
traffic disposition. No on-ground level negotiations or reservations are allowed.
DCL service does not provide clearance revision. Any revision to the clearance issued via datalink
will be made by ATC through voice communications.
Clearance request through VHF using the existing voice procedures is still available for applicable
flights under the DCL service.
Pilot shall contact Clearance Delivery or the next assigned frequency in CLD message within 5
minutes of TOBT using the following phraseology:
a. <“Callsign”...With P-D-C, fully ready>;
b. Provide requested flight level if it differs from PFL filed in flight plan;
c. Provide CTOT or ANITO crossing if not previously given in RCD message.
NOTE: Regardless of clearance through voice or datalink, all departing aircraft must report to
Clearance Delivery when ready for push within 5 minutes of TOBT.
ATC will check for TOBT compliance and update pilot of any revisions in departure clearance and
flow restrictions before handing the flight over to Ground frequency for start-up and pushback.
ATC will cancel the clearance issued and send a "revert to voice procedures" message if pilot
does not report ready for push within 5 minutes of Target Start-up Approval Time (TSAT).
GENERAL
Except for the differences listed below, the air traffic rules and procedures applicable to air traffic

address will be included in the ADP.
CTOTs will be distributed to stakeholders via e-mail and AFTN messages. They will also be pub-
lished at http://atfm.aerothai.aero. No password is required for accessing the CTOT distribution
page.
For flights with CTOTs, crews shall plan their flights to be ready for pushback at an appropriate
timing such that Take-Off Time (TOT) will be in compliance with CTOT.
For flights with CTOTs and departing from airports within Bangkok FIR, follow additional clear-
ance delivery requirement as follows:
a. Flights departing from VTBS and VTBD: Crews shall contact ATC for push-back and start-up
clearance at least 20 minutes prior to CTOTs.
b. Flights departing from other airports: crews shall contact ATC for push-back and start-up
clearance at least 15 minutes prior to CTOTs.
c. ATC shall provide best assistance to ensure flights complying with the above timeframe can
takeoff within CTOT compliance window. Failure to comply with the above timeframe may
result in further gate holding, and ATC may request crews to obtain new CTOT from Bang-
kok ATFMU (through their flight operations/dispatch).
Flights with CTOTs operating out of an A-CDM airport, where CTOT is integrated into the A-CDM
process, are advised to comply with the local A-CDM procedure.
CTOT compliance windows are provided for ATC at the departure airport to accord operational
flexibility in handling airport traffic conditions. CTOT compliance windows are defined as:
a. -5/+10 minutes for CTOTs assigned in response to constrained arrival airports;
b. -5/+5 minutes for CTOTs assigned in response to constrained airspace volumes.
Insofar as practicable, ATC shall manage flights to depart as close to the CTOT as possible.
Should there be any change to flight’s operating time (CHG, DLA), airspace user shall contact
Bangkok ATFMU as soon as possible to obtain a new CTOT prior to ATC Clearance request to
avoid excessive delay. As a general rule, airspace users are responsible for new CTOT requests
with Bangkok ATFMU while their aircraft are still at the parking bays (before off-block); once the
aircraft has been cleared for pushback, ATC shall assist in obtaining new CTOT if needed due to
ground movement issues.
For flights originally operating outside of the GDP period but delaying into it, airspace users shall
contact Bangkok ATFMU to obtain CTOT as soon as possible and prior to clearance delivery. If
uncertain whether the flight should be subjected to GDP, contact Bangkok ATFMU to verify.

Flights that plan to enter Kabul FIR without an ATFM slot allocation – CTOT, CTO at Kabul FIR
entry fix, allocated flight level, and allocated ATS route – will be accommodated only after flights
with slots have been processed. Such flights should expect delayed pushback and start clearan-
ces, nonpreferred routes and/or flight levels, enroute holding and/or diversion around Kabul FIR.
In order to ensure availability of slots for westbound departures from designated airports in north-
ern India and Pakistan, departures from these airports are given priority for FL280 in the slot allo-
cation. This does not preclude these flights from requesting higher flight levels with initial slot
request.
Flights Exempted from BOBCAT ATFM
The following flights are exempted from BOBCAT ATFM procedures:
a. Flights experiencing an emergency, including aircraft subjected to unlawful interference;
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1392
THAILAND
RULES AND PROCEDURES
– Flights that were not allocated a slot in the initial slot allocation, are not satisfied with the
allocated slot or did not submit a slot request should select slots from the listing of remain-
ing unallocated slots available immediately after slot distribution has been completed.
b. Slot Allocation and Distribution
– Slot allocation will commence at the cut-off time of 1200 UTC. BOBCAT will process and
generate the slot allocation based on the information submitted in the slot requests. Notifi-
cation of slot allocation will be made not later than 1230UTC via the BOBCAT ATFM web-
site. Alternative arrangements for notification of slot distribution (e.g., fax, telephone, and
e-mail) should be coordinated with the Bangkok ATFMU.
– After the slot allocation has been published at https://www.bobcat.aero, airspace users
can:
• Use the slot allocation result for ATS flight planning purposes;
• Cancel the allocated slot; and/or
• Change the slot allocation to another available slot in the published list of unallocated
slots.
Submission of ATS Flight Plan
a. Once aircraft operators are in receipt of the slot allocation, they shall submit the ATS flight
plan using the time, ATS route and flight level parameters of the BOBCAT allocated slot.
b. In addition to normal AFTN addressees, operators should also address flight plan (FPL) and
related ATS messages (e.g. DLA, CNL, CHG) to the ATFMU via AFTN address VTBBZDZX
for all flights that have submitted a slot request.
Bangkok ATFMU (VTBBZDZX) shall be included in the list of AFTN addressees for NOTAMs
regarding any planned activities that may affect slot availability (e.g. reservation of airspace/
closure of airspace, non-availability of routes, etc).
Bangkok ATFMU (VTBBZDZX) shall be included in the list of AFTN addressees for ATS mes-
sages (e.g. FPL, DEP, DLA, CHG, CNL) relating to flights subject to ATFM procedures.
Re-Routing Scenarios
Rerouting of Westbound Flight on L759 to M770 for Night Time Traffic from Southeast Asia
to Europe
It is recognized that there may be congestion / aircraft bunching prior to entering the Bay of
Bengal on ATS Route L759 as westbound flight towards European destinations would be limited
to FL280 – FL340, while available flight levels in Kabul FIR includes all westbound flights from
FL280 to FL400.
Accordingly, flights planned on route L759 between PUT-BBS (Chennai FIR) maybe re-routed
onto M770 via “PUT L515 OBMOG M770 BUBKO N895 BBS L759” under following conditions:
a. If longitudinal separation cannot be achieved or maintained in relation to preceding traffic on
the flight planned route L759 between PUT – BBS over the Bay of Bengal;
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1394

b. When, by using the flight planned route L759, an aircraft would suffer an unacceptable lower
flight level; and
c. In concurrence with the flight crew, the Bangkok ACC shall assign alternative parallel route
M770 or lower acceptable level on L759 to affected flights enabling a better chance of
obtaining the ATFM slot allocation in the Kabul FIR.
Flight crews and dispatchers are encouraged to become fully conversant with the L759 re-routing
scenario and are advised to take appropriate proceedings to enable affected flights to proceed via
M770 when necessary.

includes one Merge Point (SUDON in the North, SONTA in the South) and two parallel legs which
are 20 NM (inner sequencing leg) and 20.3 NM (outer sequencing leg) from “Merge Point” respec-
tively with 4 entry points as follows:
– HOBIN: Is entry point for each inbound flow from the South of Noi Bai TMA (Q2);
– KHARO: Is entry point for each inbound flow from the West of Noi Bai TMA (W4, B214, B465,
R474);
– THOLA: Is entry point for each inbound flow from the North-West of Noi Bai TMA (W22);
– LIMIN: Is entry point for each inbound flow from the North-East of Noi Bai TMA (R474, R471).
Each “sequencing leg” consists of 4 waypoints: entry waypoint, exit waypoint and two middle way-
points. Vertical separation between “sequencing legs” should be 2000 ft. Waypoints naming and
altitude restrictions of “sequencing leg” are as follows:
a. For Southern PMS:
– Name of waypoints: Except names of entry waypoints mentioned above, two middle way-
points and exit waypoint on “sequencing leg” are named as “NB37x”, in which “x” can be
1, 2, 3 for inner-arc and 4, 5, 6 for outer-arc.
– Altitude restriction: from FL130 and above for inner-arc, up to FL110 for outer-arc.

– Runway‐in‐use;
– Assigned flight level/altitude.
NOTE:
– RNAV 1 procedure defines a lateral route for an aircraft to fly from a significant point along the
enroute/terminal phase of flight to the approach phase with minimal, or no, ATC intervention.
All charted altitude and speed restrictions are mandatory unless specifically cancelled by ATC.
– ATC will issue descent clearance, and once a lower altitude is issued by ATC, the pilot shall
descend on the procedure profile to the assigned altitude. The pilot will comply with all charted
altitude restrictions above the ATC-assigned altitude, unless specifically cancelled by ATC.
When an approach clearance is received, all altitude restrictions on the procedure profile
remain mandatory, unless specifically cancelled by ATC.
SPEED CONTROL
In order to facilitate the flow of arriving aircraft within Noi Bai TMA, speed control is used to opti-
mize the spacing between aircraft and improve the orderly flow of air traffic.
If unable to conform with these procedures, pilots should immediately inform ATC and state what
speed will be used.
At other times, speed adjustment may be applied on a tactical basic to the extent determined by
ATC. When speed adjustment is no longer required, the phraseology “Resume normal speed”
shall be used.
NOTE: The phrase “Resume normal speed” does not delete speed restrictions that are applicable
to these procedures in upcoming segments of flight.
ATC shall notify that the aircraft may keep its preferred speed without restrictions and shall use
the phraseology “No (ATC) speed restrictions”.
Speed restriction within Noi Bai TMA are as follows:
– Aircraft under FL100: Maximum speed 250 kt (IAS).
– Aircraft entering “sequencing legs”: Maximum speed 250 kt (IAS).
– Aircraft entering “merge point”: Maximum speed 220 kt (IAS).
– Arrival aircraft is 12 NM (track mile) from touchdown: Speed 200 kt (IAS).
– Arrival aircraft is 5 NM (track mile) from touchdown: Speed 160 kt (IAS).
HOLDING PROCEDURES
Holdings are designed to facilitate holding aircraft for delay to achieve required spacing between
arriving aircraft in case of increasing density of flight operation, having military flight operation and
bad weather within Noi Bai TMA, etc. The associated holdings and procedures are listed below:

INTRODUCTION
The Distributed Multi-Nodal ATFM Network concept involves each ANSP leading and operating
an independent, virtual ATFM node supported by interconnected information sharing framework.
The flow of air traffic into constrained/congested resource (airspace or airport) will be managed
based on a common set of agreed ATFM measures and principles among participating stakehold-
ers. The primary ATFM measure used in this initiative is Ground Delay Program (GDP), where
demand and capacity are balanced through adjustments in aircraft Calculated Landing Time
(CLDT) and Calculated Take-Off Time (CTOT) distributed to aircraft prior to departures.
An ATFM measure may be triggered when a Level 3 ANSP determines that there will be a
demand capacity imbalance situation at a particular ATM resource. The Level 3 ANSP will provide
advance notification of an ATFM measure to be initiated and their effective period through the
publication of ATFM Daily Plan (ADP) and/or NOTAM. The ADP will be issued via email to stake-
holders’ key point of contact.
Vietnam is participating in ATFM Network as a Level 2 ATFM Node (starting from 23 April 2020)
is to support the management of departures in compliance with CTOTs issued by Level 3 ATFM
Nodes. In Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh FIR, Vietnam Air Traffic Flow Management Center (ATFMC) is
responsible for implementing ATFM and monitoring the ATFM measures implementation.
The following airports in Vietnam will be involved in Level 2 ATFM Node by way of receiving and
facilitating the affected airlines compliance of CTOT:
tional planning. On the day of operations, when possible, Level 3 ATFMU will host web conferen-
ces to discuss the ATFM operations. Following the briefing, the conference room will remain open
as a Help Desk to provide assistance and facilitate CTOT management for stakeholders. Consult
the ADP or contact Vietnam ATFMC for information on the web conference address.
CTOTs will be distributed to stakeholders via web portal, email, AFTN messages and telephone.
Specific instructions to access CTOT information will be provided by Level 3 ATFM Units. If there
is a problem accessing the information, contact Vietnam ATFMC for assistance.
ATC shall provide best assistance to ensure flights departing from the airports specified above
can depart within CTOT compliance window. Flight crew, for their part, shall plan their flights to be
ready for pushback at an appropriate time such as take-off time will be within CTOT compliance
window.
For flights with CTOTs departing from Noi Bai, Da Nang, Tan Son Nhat, Cat Bi, Cam Ranh, Phu
Quoc airports:
a. Inform ATFMC of CTOT compliance right after CTOT receipt and plan the affected flights
such that will be ready for start-up/pushback at appropriate time to comply with CTOT at the
runway, considering taxi-out time.
b. Request for revisions to CTOTs/ATFM slots when flights are expected to be unable to
comply with the assigned CTOTs by contacting Vietnam ATFMC as soon as practicable.
Vietnam ATFMC will coordinate with the ATFM unit initiating the ATFM measure on behalf of
the Airspace Users accordingly.
c. Provide feedback and information on ATFM operations in the Post-Ops Analysis effort. (The
template of Post-Ops Analysis is provided in the website specified below).
All stakeholders should access the website: https://atfm.vn/en/project/Level-2-ATFM-Procedures-
In-Vietnam for further information.

airport procedures and air traffic control directions.
2.8.5.1 Diplomatic clearance does not exempt the requesting government’s responsibility to
meet other Australian Government requirements such as customs, biosecurity and immigration or
the requirement for permission to carry or import munitions or implements of war. It is the respon-
sibility of the foreign government to ensure all necessary paperwork and/or clearances from Aus-
tralian Government agencies are arranged prior to arrival.
2.8.5.2 A regulation 136 permission from the Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) is
also required. In certain circumstances, diplomatic clearance may only be issued subject to the
aircraft, cargo and passengers undertaking additional checks and searches. Failure to comply
with any conditions on a diplomatic clearance, or with other government agencies' procedures,
could result in penalties and affect issuance of future diplomatic clearances.
2.8.6 Foreign Military Aircraft Participating in Exercises within Australia
Foreign State aircraft visiting Australia for a combined exercise are required to seek diplomatic
clearance and CASA permission for their transit to and from their operating location. All exercise
flights are covered under the exercise arrangements. However, any transits from their deployed
location to another location outside the exercise schedule will require approval. Certain military
aircraft will require permission to import from the Australian Border Force. Export permission from
the Department of Defence may also be required.
2.8.7 Alternate Routes and In-flight Emergencies
Approval will not be issued for alternate or diversion airfield requests inside Australia. Aircraft
diverting in response to an in-flight emergency or poor weather do not require diplomatic approval
and should select the nearest appropriate airfield. Notification of any emergency diversions
should be sent to the Diplomatic Clearance Cell at the earliest opportunity thereafter landing
(dipa.hqac@defence.gov.au).
b. The rules and regulations pertaining to the flight and maneuvering of aircraft must comply
with the following:
1. Australian rules, where applicable;
2. ICAO rules, when operating over the high seas; and

when it comes to rest at the end of the flight and the engines used as primary propulsion units are
shut down.
2.9.5 If an emergency endangers the safety of the aircraft or persons on board and requires
action in violation of the law of a foreign State, the pilot-in-command must:
a. as soon as practicable, tell the foreign State authority responsible for that law; and
b. if required by the authority, give a written report of the violation to the authority; and
c. send a copy of the report to CASA.
2.9.6 The pilot-in-command must assume and exercise responsibility to tell the nearest appro-
priate State authority, by the quickest means possible, of any accident involving the aircraft that
has resulted in:
a. death or serious injury to any person; or
b. substantial damage to the aircraft or any property.
2.9.7 The pilot-in-command may not operate at an airport using lower operating minima than
those established for the airport by the responsible authority, without approval from the responsi-
ble authority. The pilot-in-command may not utilize operating minima lower than 200 ft above
ground level without approval from CASA.
2.9.8 Before a flight, the pilot-in-command must ensure that the aircraft is carrying the following:
a. an accessible first aid kit;
b. current and suitable charts for the route of the proposed flight and for all routes along that
route to which it is reasonable to expect the flight may be diverted;
c. procedures for pilots-in-command of intercepted aircraft, as described in Annex 2 to the Chi-
cago Convention;

result of:
a. drug or alcohol use;
b. an injury or a pre-existing physical condition; or
c. motion sickness.
d. Commanders are not required to report a traveller who has a pre-arranged medical transfer
prior to boarding the flight.
5.2.4.5 The operator of an aircraft is legally responsible for ensuring the DAWE – Biosecurity is
notified. Failure to report ill travellers, as listed above, or death on board an aircraft is an offense
under the Biosecurity Act 2015 and can lead to the application of additional reporting require-
ments, fines or civil penalties.
5.2.4.6 Any contaminants on the aircraft from dead or sick people must be cleaned or disinfec-
ted in accordance with post-event disinfection procedures for aircraft, as outlined in the World
Health Organization 2009 Guide to Hygiene and Sanitation in Aviation, third edition.
5.2.4.7 For ill passengers that are in transit through Australia the requirements are the same as
for those entering Australia. Passengers in transit are not permitted to leave the transit area other
than for actual boarding of their outward flight. If the time between arrival and departure allows,
and if it is determined to be advisable, the person may either be isolated in a biosecurity facility
(i.e., an airport health room) or be allowed restricted access to airport facilities and wait areas as
advised by biosecurity officers.
5.2.5 Pratique
5.2.5.1 Pratique is the granting of permission to disembark and unload baggage and cargo
based on the absence of disease in the passengers and crew. Aircraft entering Australia operate
under a system of (automatic) positive pratique. Under this system permission to disembark and
unload cargo and baggage is automatically granted, unless any of the following applies:
a. the prescribed disinsection measures for the aircraft have not been undertaken;
b. the aircraft has reported an individual as having, or having had, signs or symptoms of a listed
human disease, or an individual has died during the flight;
c. a human biosecurity official or a biosecurity official believes an individual on the flight is dis-
playing signs or symptoms of a listed human disease, has been exposed to a listed human
disease; or has died during the flight; or
d. a pre-arrival report consistent with paragraph 5.2.3 was not provided.

5.2.6.2 Biosecurity waste may include refuse and sweepings from areas of the aircraft, any
unconsumed and partly consumed foods, any non-washable items, other waste or materials that
may have come in contact with biosecurity waste, animal or plant waste or materials used to pack
or stabilize imported goods.
5.2.6.3 Unmanaged waste, non-compliant handling of waste or inadvertent contamination detec-
ted on an aircraft may result in action being required to be taken by the aircraft operator. This can
result in delays to the servicing and turn-around of the aircraft.
5.2.6.4 The operator/commander of an aircraft arriving in Australian territory must ensure that
waste has been removed from the aircraft before the aircraft is moved further within Australian
territory, unless prior approval has been given by the DAWE – Biosecurity.
5.2.7 Biosecurity In-Flight Announcement
5.2.7.1 Prior to arrival in Australia (at top of descent), operator/commander of all international
aircraft must provide, to all travelling passengers and crew, the approved in-flight announcement
in audio or video format which outlines Australia’s biosecurity requirements. If the audio message
cannot be played, commanders must ensure that their crew make a verbal in-flight announcement
prior to arrival in Australia.
5.2.7.2 The delivery of the announcement is a legal requirement under Australian law. The
audio or video announcement is available in a number of formats and languages on the DAWE
website at: https://www.agriculture.gov.au/biosecurity/avm/aircraft/guidelines-operators.
The approved announcement must not be edited.

NATIONAL REGULATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS
VISA REQUIREMENTS
With the exception of New Zealand passport holders and prescribed classes of persons under the
Special Purpose visa framework, all non-citizens are required to have a visa for travel to Australia.
Carriers are required to ensure non-citizen passengers traveling to Australia hold, or are eligible
to hold, a valid visa. Persons in possession of expired visas should not be carried to Australia.
Visas for travel to Australia may be for either single or multiple journeys within the validity of the
visa. Visas facilitate travel, but do not guarantee entry. Visitors who fail to satisfy border checks
can be refused entry to Australia.
The majority of visas granted will not be evidenced by a stick-in visa label in a passport as visa
labels ceased to be issued from 1 September 2015. Existence of a visa should be verified by air-
lines at check in via the APP system.
There are two types of visas: temporary and permanent.
Electronic Travel Authorities (ETA) are temporary visas for short term stays for tourism or busi-
ness visitor activities.
Where capable, airlines may apply for ETA for tourist or short term business travel to bearers of
passports issued by the following countries:
Further information regarding these visas and the visa application process can be found at
www.eta.homeaffairs.gov.au including authenticating Taiwanese passports.
Special Purpose Visas (SPV) are a class of temporary visa taken to have been granted by oper-
ation of law to certain persons or classes of persons.

At Christchurch and Auckland international airports Customs maintains a full-time presence. At
the other Customs airports listed, Customs is in attendance for limited periods of time known as
“Customs working hours”. These hours are varied from time-to-time to match the scheduled inter-
national services operating from any particular Customs airport. The current designations of Cus-
toms working hours at each airport can be found on Customs’ website: www.customs.govt.nz/
about/contactus/airports/Pages/default.aspx.
If an aircraft arrives or departs outside the working hours designated for a particular Customs air-
port then charges may be levied to meet the costs of officers processing the aircraft and passen-
gers.

rently have scheduled international services. There are no Customs services available. The proc-
ess set out below for applying to arrive or depart from a non-Customs designated airport must be
used by an aircraft operator seeking to use Hamilton or Palmerston North airports for any form of
international flight.

Prior permission is required for entry into non-designated airports and will only be granted subject
to MPI/Customs approval. Charges will be applied for attendance. Applications must be received
by Customs and MPI at least 72 hours prior to arrival in New Zealand.

shown at each entry of the Jeppesen AUSTRALIA APT DIR (graphic version) and in the Australia
ERSA FAC section (not published herein).
f. coordinate transfer of control, as appropriate, without requiring responses from the aircraft,
unless communication remains normal; and
g. relay messages as required between the aircraft and appropriate authorities.
3.6.3.3 The pilot of an aircraft losing two-way communication must set the transponder to CODE
7600.
3.6.3.4 A controller observing a 7600 code shall request the pilot to operate the identification
(SPI) function. If the identification signal is received, further control of the aircraft will be continued
using the identification transmission to acknowledge receipt of instructions issued.
3.6.3.5 If the identification signal is not received, the aircraft must continue with the transponder
on CODE 7600 and follow radio failure procedures.
3.6.3.6 When an RPAS experiences a lost link between the RP and the RPA, the SSR code to
be selected or automatically enabled is 7400.
3.6.4 Speechless Radar Approach Procedures
3.6.4.1 A pilot may request a speechless Radar approach when microphone(s) is/are unservice-
able (carrier wave only available) by transmitting four (4) separate and distinct unmodulated trans-
missions of one (1) second duration.
3.6.4.2 Pilot responses to subsequent control questions:
a. affirmative or acknowledgement — one (1) distinct transmission;
b. negative — two (2) separate and distinct transmissions;
c. say again — three (3) separate and distinct transmissions.
3.6.4.3 Pilot indicates a further and pertinent unserviceability or an emergency by five (5) sepa-
rate and distinct transmissions.
3.6.4.4 Pilot indicates abandoning the aircraft by a single continuous transmission as long as
practicable. Where possible the transmitter key is to be locked on.
3.6.4.5 When the controller requires the pilot to indicate when an instruction has been comple-
ted — the pilot will, when condition or instruction is completed, make a two (2) second transmis-
sion.
3.6.5 ADS-B Emergency Codes
3.6.5.1 Due to the ADS-B emergency processing limitations, if a generic ADS-B emergency indi-
cation is received from an aircraft outside of radar coverage and the flight crew does not verbally
communicate the nature of the emergency, the controller will use the procedures detailed in para-
graph 3.6.3.2.a.
1. Remain VMC.
2. Broadcast intentions (assume transmitter is operating and prefix calls with “TRANSMIT-
TING BLIND”).
3. Remain VFR in Class G airspace and land at the nearest suitable airport.
4. Report arrival to ATS if on SARTIME or reporting schedules.
b. If in Controlled/Restricted Airspace or if IFR in any Airspace:
1. Squawk 7600.
2. Listen out on ATIS and/or voice modulated NAVAIDs.
3. Transmit intentions and normal position reports (assume transmitter is operating and
prefix calls with “TRANSMITTING BLIND”). If practicable, leave/avoid controlled/restric-
ted airspace and areas of dense traffic.
4. As soon as possible, establish visual navigation.
5. Land at the most suitable airport (note special procedures if proceeding to a Class D).
6. Report arrival to ATS.
6 FORCED LANDING/DITCHING
6.1 PRE-IMPACT ACTIONS
6.1.1 Activate crew impact instructions. If no prescribed drill, check:
a. preparation of aircraft for impact;
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1723
AUSTRALIA
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
b. positioning of personnel;
c. activate ELT;
d. crew procedures for directing evacuation of aircraft in orderly manner; and
e. ready availability to crew members of charts showing emergency and distress communica-
tion facilities; i.e., location, call sign, frequency of:
1. aeronautical stations;
2. DF stations;
3. coast radio stations guarding international distress frequencies.
6.1.2 Instruct passengers that they will be required to:
a. recognize the absolute authority of the pilot-in-command;
b. apply safety apparatus as instructed;
c. prepare for impact shock as instructed;
d. don protective clothing;
e. make an orderly exit from the aircraft; and
f. remain near the aircraft after the evacuation (at sea, secure life rafts and set sea anchor).
6.1.3 Immediately prior to impact, set radio apparatus for continuous operation unless the addi-
tional risk of fire is too great.
1 INTERCEPTION PROCEDURES
The following procedures and visual signals apply over the territory and territorial waters of Aus-
tralia in the event of interception of an aircraft.
1.4.2 The phrases shown in the table below should be used by the intercepting aircraft and
transmitted twice in the circumstances described in the preceding paragraph.
1.4.3 If any instructions received by radio from any sources conflict with those given by the inter-
cepting aircraft by visual signals, the intercepted aircraft should request immediate clarification
while continuing to comply with the visual instructions given by the intercepting aircraft.
1.4.4 If instructions received by radio from any sources conflict with those given by the intercept-
ing aircraft by radio, the intercepted aircraft should request immediate clarification while continu-
ing to comply with the radio instructions given by the intercepting aircraft.
1.4.5 The visual signals for use in the event of interception are detailed in Tables 1.2 and 1.3.
2 SNOW PLAN
Only a small number of airports and heliports within Australia are normally subject to snow condi-
tions. Consequently there is no national snow plan, or any specific regulation for the clearance of
snow and ice from runways and maneuvering areas.
2.2 For airports and heliports likely to be affected, pilots and operators are advised to contact
the airport operator directly for information about the relevant airport snow plan.

SEARCH AND RESCUE
1 PURPOSE
1.1 The purpose of the Search and Rescue (SAR) organization is to provide assistance to air-
craft in distress and to search for, provide aid to, and organize the rescue of survivors of aircraft
accidents and forced landings.
2 RESPONSIBLE AUTHORITY
2.1 Airservices Australia is responsible for the provision of a SAR alerting and in-flight emer-
gency response service. Joint Rescue Coordination Centre (JRCC) Australia is responsible for
the conduct of SAR for missing aircraft, aircraft reported crashed, and ELT searches within the
Search and Rescue Region (SRR) under Australian jurisdiction.
3 ORGANIZATION
3.1 The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) have established a Joint Rescue Coordi-
nation Centre in Canberra (JRCC AUSTRALIA) which is responsible for the coordination of avia-
tion and maritime SAR efforts within the Australian SRR. Refer to the chart at paragraph 6 SAR

5 PROCEDURES
5.1 PILOT NOTIFICATION
5.1.1 The efficacy of the SAR action by the Airservices or JRCC Australia is directly related to
the amount and accuracy of details notified in the flight plan or flight note, and to any position
details reported in flight. When notifying of in-flight difficulties, early advice of and the degree of
apprehension felt by the pilot will enhance the assistance which can be provided by the ground
organization.
5.1.2 When a pilot lands at a place other than an aerodrome included in the flight notification,
the pilot should report the fact to ATS, JRCC Australia, or the police as soon as possible.
6 SRR BOUNDARY
7.4 DITCHING
7.4.1 When a ditching is likely, the JRCC will obtain the positions of ships along the aircraft’s
route and advise the pilot, and:
a. Attempts will be made to arrange a direct speech link or a rapid relay system between the
aircraft and a selected ship;
b. Weather reports, including sea conditions and a selected ditching heading, will be passed to
the aircraft; and
c. Arrangements may be made for ships to provide navigational assistance, lighting and reduce
the effects of the sea, swell or wind.
7.6.4 Safety. Civil aircraft engaged in SAR operations are required to comply with the Civil Avia-
tion Regulations and Civil Aviation Safety Regulations.
9.1.2 When assistance is no longer required fly across the stern of the vessel at low level, rock-
ing wings, opening and closing throttles or changing propeller pitch if possible.
4 Yes or Affirmative Y
5 No or Negative N
If in doubt use International Symbol SOS
b. During the hours of darkness – by flashing the aircraft’s landing or navigation lights on or off
twice.
Lack of the above signal indicates that the message has not been understood.
The “GROUND - AIR VISUAL SIGNAL CODE FOR USE BY SURVIVORS” conforms to ICAO and
NATO standards.
10.2.1.2 Parallel Track Search — Search legs are aligned parallel to the major axis of the
search area. The pattern is best used in rectangular or square areas. It is a very suitable pattern
for a search conducted over water.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1738
AUSTRALIA
SEARCH AND RESCUE
10.2.1.3 Creeping Line Search — The creeping line pattern differs from the parallel track pat-
tern in that the search legs are parallel to the minor axis.
10.2.1.4 Square Search — The aircraft is flown to make good the tracks shown in the following
diagram. Turns may be to the left, or right, depending upon the observer positions. The first two
tracks are flown for a distance equal to “S”, the third and fourth for a distance equal to twice “S”,
the fifth and sixth for three times “S”, and so on.
10.2.1.4.1 The final track to the start point should be the same as the initial search track. Obser-
vations should start at a distance of “S” before reaching the most probable position to avoid leav-
ing an unscanned portion near the start point. Observers should be briefed to pay particular atten-
tion to the scanning of the areas outwards of each turn to avoid leaving unscanned areas during
the turns.
10.2.1.4.2 A square search should be planned so that whenever possible the approach to the
most probable position (MPP), and the first leg, is made into the wind.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1739
AUSTRALIA
SEARCH AND RESCUE
10.2.1.5 Sector Search — This pattern is employed when the position of distress is known
within close limits and the area to be searched is not extensive. It is simple to execute and pro-
vides greater navigational accuracy than a square search. The track spacing reduces towards the
center, resulting in a greater probability of detection in the area where the target is most likely to
be located.
10.2.1.5.1 Radius of search, angular displacement and mean track spacing (MTS) are specified
with the briefing.
10.2.1.6 Contour Search — This procedure requires an aircraft to be flown at selected contour
levels, adjacent to the side of a mountain, starting at the highest selective level.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1740
AUSTRALIA
SEARCH AND RESCUE
b. Note the time and aircraft position at each half division on the searchmeter;
c. Continue with a. above until readings on the searchmeter decrease. Select two positions of
equal reading and return to the mid position;
d. On arriving at the mid position, turn 90° and note the readings on the searchmeter. If the
meter readings decrease, turn 180° and proceed to determine two further positions of equal
signal strength then return to the mid position;
e. When it becomes apparent that the beacon is close, descend, if possible, to an altitude
approximately 2000' clearance above terrain within approximately 10 NM of the search air-
craft;
f. By continuing the boxing-in technique it should be possible to estimate the position of the
beacon to within an area of 24 square miles;
g. The beacon site may be located with greater accuracy by detuning the VHF receiver to
121.45 or 121.4 MHz while close to the transmitter and noting the position on the ground
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1743
AUSTRALIA
SEARCH AND RESCUE
over which there is maximum searchmeter deflection. The receiver may also be detuned to
121.55 or 121.6 MHz. With the search aircraft 500' AGL and the receiver tuned to 121.3 or
121.7 MHz, the signal will only be heard within 200 – 300 meters of the beacon site.
NOTE: Where the signal from the beacon is broken and distorted, it is probably because the
beacon is among obstacles, such as wreckage, trees, rocks, etc., which causes the signal to be
absorbed or reflected, forming lobes.
With the search aircraft flying along the track indicated below, the searchmeter needle would rise
and fall, corresponding with the passage of the aircraft through successive lobes where the signal
could be heard. In between the lobes there would be receiver noise and no signal. Provided the
aircraft is several thousand feet above the terrain, it may be assumed that the signal is being
received direct from the beacon rather than by reflection from the surrounding terrain. Thus by fol-
lowing a lobe the search aircraft will be guided direct to the beacon.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1744
AUSTRALIA
SEARCH AND RESCUE
10.3.3.2 When the ratio between the beacon signal and the background hash begins to favor
the latter, alter heading until only a clear signal can be heard. The signal from the beacon should
be continuous with clarity improving as the search aircraft approaches the beacon.
10.3.3.3 Once a heading has been established, note the searchmeter readings. The readings
will increase as the aircraft approaches the beacon site reaching a maximum when about to over-
fly. The position of the beacon may be located with greater accuracy by progressively detuning
the VHF receiver to 121.3 or 121.7 MHz.
10.3.3.4 Overwater Searches
10.3.3.4.1 The principles of an overwater search using a searchmeter are similar to those used
for a regular pattern. However, the following differences should be noted:
a. The radiation pattern from a beacon transmitting overwater will generally be much larger
than if the beacon was on land. This could be up to 90 NM to an aircraft flying at 10,000', and
180 NM at 30,000';
b. Some older marine beacons have an interrupted carrier.
c. Where a search aircraft is operating at an altitude of 10,000' or less and has a searchmeter
reading of more than four, the pilot should check on the adjacent frequency of 121.45 or
121.55 MHz. If the signal can be heard on that frequency, albeit faintly, the search aircraft
will be within 15 NM of the beacon.
ating from a beacon in rough country are absorbed, reflected and reinforced to form isolated
patches of strong signal which tend to hinder rather than assist the location of the beacon.
10.4.2 To avoid possible confusion from reflected signals, it is essential that the search aircraft
conduct a homing from an altitude above all terrain in the general area. This does not apply to
search aircraft flying in valleys or behind mountains in order to ascertain where the beacon signal
cannot be heard.
11.2 ACTIVATION
11.2.1 An Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) is a valuable search aid if an aircraft is forced
down. However, to obtain maximum benefit from the transmitter and to assist search aircraft, it is
necessary to observe a few guidelines for the activation of the ELT.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1746
AUSTRALIA
SEARCH AND RESCUE
11.2.2 If in water and the beacon is buoyant, the ELT should be activated in the water and
allowed to float to the end of the lanyard with the aerial vertical. Do not hoist the ELT up a mast.
The performance of an ELT is degraded when it is raised above the water surface.
11.2.3 Life may depend on the correct use of the ELT; study the manufacturer’s instructions
thoroughly and keep them in an emergency kit.
11.2.4 If forced down:
a. Activate the ELT immediately;
b. Where the ELT is permanently installed in the aircraft, activate the beacon in situ;
c. Where the ELT is not permanently installed in the aircraft, select an elevated site clear of
trees, boulders etc., and reasonably close to the aircraft.
d. Place the beacon on the ground on an earth mat. If an earth mat is not available, place the
ELT on the wing of the aircraft or another metal reflective surface.
e. Secure the ELT with rocks, sticks, tape etc., so that the aerial will remain vertical. Avoid any-
thing touching the antennae as this will degrade ELT performance.
f. Remain clear of the ELT. Obstacles near the ELT will distort the radiation pattern.
g. An ELT which is damaged or under wreckage may still transmit some signal. Always activate
the ELT.
h. Do not switch off the ELT unless rescue is no longer required.
i. To avoid confusing COSPAS/SARSAT and direction finding equipment, avoid activating two
or more ELTs within 1 NM of each other.
11.2.5 In many cases, using an earth mat will increase the effective range of a portable ELT by
50%. A simple and effective earth mat can be made by using household aluminum foil to make a
120 centimeter square, folded and taped to the unit. To use the earth mat, unfold and place it flat
on the ground, securing edges with dirt or rocks. Activate the ELT and place it on the mat.
11.3.3 Reports
a. Report all signals received;
b. State characteristics;
c. When giving signal heard/signal fade positions, include aircraft level and squelch disabled
(MAX HASH) information. This is necessary for plotting;
d. Advise if signal commenced/ended gradually or abruptly;
e. Do not alter squelch setting unless requested.
NOTE: Rescue Coordination Centers can demonstrate the above signals on request.
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Alone and injured, people have survived in almost impossible circumstances. The determi-
nation to beat the situation and the will to survive is the survivor's strongest weapons. Military
SAR will not give up searching for downed aircrew.
1.2 The peacetime priorities of survival are as listed below:
a. Protection: The elements of protection are:
1. First Aid – Breathing must be restarted within 3 minutes;
2. Clothing;
3. Shelter – In harsh weather a shelter will be required in less than 3 hours; and
4. Fire.
b. Location: Most survivors are located within 3 days.
c. Water: In Australia’s arid center water must be found within 3 days.
d. Food: Survival without food for at least 30 days is possible. Therefore, food is the lowest pri-
ority. Food information is contained in the JUNGLE SURVIVAL section.
1.3 Basic survival rules are outlined in the following sections:
a. Location.
b. First Aid;
c. Desert Survival;
d. Sea Survival;
e. Jungle Survival; and
f. Cold Weather Survival.
1.4 Rapidly adapt to the new situation – DO NOT WASTE TIME. Even if SAR is expected
quickly develop a plan of action that will assist SAR and improve living conditions. Start working to
beat the situation as soon as possible.
2 LOCATION
2.1 SAFETY EQUIPMENT
2.2 When moving always carry location aids and protect them from deterioration. Do not fire
pyrotechnics until SAR is sighted. Consider the best use of aids:
a. survival radios/beacons;
b. signal mirror;

The lean-to with fire and reflector will provide good protection in wooded temperate conditions. An
improvised igloo can be made by covering branches, rafts, etc., with a parachute and covering
with 25cm of snow, letting set and then removing the core. The A-Frame must be modified with
25cm of snow cover to provide thermal protection. The quickest shelter to build without a shovel is
the snow cave. Probe before building to check snow depth. Smooth walls to prevent dripping and
construct a cold sump. Stay dry when digging. A snow trench may be constructed with a saw in
hard snow.

GENERAL
In general, the Emergency, Unlawful Interference, Communications Failure, Interception, and
Search and Rescue procedures are in conformity with the Standards, Recommended Practices
and Procedures contained in ICAO Annexes and Documents.
Depending on the nature of the emergency condition, flight crew should notify ATS of the circum-
stances by the most efficient means (voice or data link).
Distress: MAYDAY [MAYDAY, MAYDAY]
Urgency: PAN PAN [PAN PAN, PAN PAN]
SSR Codes: Emergency 7700; Radio failure 7600
COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE
IF IN CONTROLLED / RESTRICTED AIRSPACE OR IF IFR IN ANY AIRSPACE
a. Squawk 7600;
b. Listen out on the ATIS and/or voice modulated navaids;
c. Transmit intentions and make normal position reports (assume transmitter is operating and
prefix calls with “TRANSMITTING BLIND”).
If in VMC and are certain of maintaining VMC, stay in VMC and land at the most suitable airport.
NOTE: In OCA, aircraft experiencing communication failure may also initiate strategic
lateral offset procedures (SLOP) in accordance with ATC, General Flight Procedures,
Operations in Oceanic Control Area, including an offset of up to 2 NM right of track.
6. Upon exiting OCA, conform to the relevant State procedures and regulations.
In the event of lost communication, ATC shall maintain separation between the aircraft having the
communication failure and other aircraft, based on the assumption that the aircraft having the
communication failure will operate in accordance with the procedures in the previous paragraph.
DESTINATION PROCEDURES
a. Track to the destination in accordance with flight plan (amended by the latest ATC clearance
acknowledged, if applicable).
b. Commence descent in accordance with standard operating procedures or flight plan.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - AUSTRALIA 1760
AUSTRALIA
ICAO DIFFERENCES OR STATE SPECIAL PROCEDURES
c. Descend to the initial approach altitude for the most suitable instrument approach in accord-
ance with the published procedures.
d. Carry out the approach to the prescribed minima.
NOTE:
1. The most suitable approach is normally the approach that facilitates the most accurate track
keeping, however, if the pilot is in receipt of ATIS or directed information (e.g. voice modula-
ted navigation aid) that a specific approach is required, that approach should be used.
2. If an approach time has been given by ATC and acknowledged, adhere to this time.
3. When within 25 NM of the destination, the pilot may track direct to the IAF for the most suita-
ble approach.
4. At Sydney during Independent Visual Approaches
– In the event of a radio failure (or blocked FREQ) on the DIRECTOR FREQ, pilots must
comply with the following actions:
a. ON PILOT NAVIGATION (IF VISUAL)
SQUAWK 7600 immediately.
Track to intercept final at a MAX 30DEG prior to the IAF of the nominated RWY.
DO NOT PASS THROUGH FINAL FOR THE NOMINATED RWY.
b. ON A RADAR ASSIGNED HEADING
SQUAWK 7600.
Maintain assigned vector for no longer than 2 minutes. Track as required to join final
for the nominated RWY at a MAX 30DEG intercept to commence final.
DO NOT PASS THROUGH FINAL OF THE NOMINATED RWY.
– Pilots should attempt to contact the alternate DIRECTOR FREQ (126.1/125.3). Attempts
should also be made on the TWR FREQ.
ACTIONS AT MINIMA
a. If visual at the minima at an uncontrolled airport, continue to land provided that a safe land-
ing can be accomplished. If visual at the minima at a controlled airport continue to land provi-
ded that a clearance to land is received via a voice modulated NAVAID and/or light signal
from the Tower.
b. If not visual at the minima, depart for a suitable alternate airport.
c. If insufficient fuel is carried to divert to a suitable alternate, the pilot may hold or carry out

Interception of Civil Aircraft
Aircraft operators must be familiar with international intercept procedures contained in ICAO
Annex 2 — Rules of the Air, Chapter 3, paragraph 3.8 and Appendix 2, sections 2 and 3.
Pilots are to comply with instructions given by the pilot of the intercepting aircraft. In such circum-
stances, the pilot of the aircraft being intercepted shall broadcast information on the situation.
If circumstances leading to the closure of the Manila FIR where no contingency routes are availa-
ble, aircraft will be required to keep clear of Manila FIR. As much warning as possible will be pro-
vided by the appropriate ATS authorities in the event of the complete closure of airspace.
Pilots shall continuously guard the VHF emergency frequency 121.5 MHz and shall operate their
transponder at all times during flight, regardless of whether the aircraft is within or outside air-
space where Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) is used for ATS purposes. Transponders
should be set on the last discrete code assigned by ATC or select Code 2000 if no code was
assigned.
COMMUNICATION PROCEDURES
Degradation of Communication — Pilot Radio Procedures
When operating within the contingency airspace of the Manila FIR, pilots should use normal radio

EMERGENCY
PROCEDURES FOR AN AIRCRAFT REQUIRING SAR ESCORT
If the pilot-in-command of an aircraft, while flying over water or a sparsely inhabited area, has any
reason to believe that the operating efficiency of the aircraft is impaired, the appropriate ATS unit
should be notified so that the RCC is forewarned should the position deteriorate. If, at this stage
or later, the pilot-in-command considers it advisable, interception and escort by a search and
rescue aircraft may be requested.
Disparity in speeds and normal altitudes between some aircraft and SAR aircraft may not permit
continuous escort in the accepted sense. The SAR aircraft may turn back along the intended track
of the aircraft requiring escort before the interception, so that the latter is catching up with the
former. It is most important that radiotelephony (RTF) contact is established between the two air-
craft as early as possible and maintained throughout the operation.
COMMUNICATIONS
The carriage of an emergency location transmitter (ELT) is mandatory within Kiribati. For this
reason, in accordance with ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices, aircraft are required to
continuously guard the international emergency frequency 121.5 MHz. This requirement does not
apply when aircraft are carrying out communications on other VHF channels, or when airborne
equipment limitations or cockpit duties do not permit simultaneously guarding two or more chan-
nels.
The frequency 121.5 MHz is guarded continuously during the hours of service at all area control
centers and flight information centers. It is also available at the Marine Guard, RCC for Kiribati, in
Betio. In addition, the airport control towers serving international airports and international alter-
nate airports will, on request, guard the frequency 121.5 MHz.
The frequency 121.5 MHz is guarded continuously by the Nadi ACC and by Port Vila/Bauerfield
ATS during promulgated hours of service.
UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE
Unless considerations aboard the aircraft dictate otherwise, the pilot-in-command should attempt
to continue flying on the assigned track and at the assigned cruising level at least until notification
to an ATS unit is possible or the aircraft is within radar coverage.
When an aircraft subjected to an act of unlawful interference must depart from its assigned track
or its assigned cruising level without being able to make radiotelephony contact with ATS, the
pilot-in-command should, whenever possible:
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - PACIFIC 1783

a. attempt to broadcast warnings on the VHF emergency frequency and other appropriate fre-
quencies, unless considerations aboard the aircraft dictate otherwise. Other equipment such
as on-board transponders, data links, etc. should also be used when it is advantageous to do
so and circumstances permit; and
b. proceed in accordance with applicable special procedures for in-flight contingencies, where
such procedures have been established and promulgated in ICAO Doc 7030 — Regional
Supplementary Procedures; or
c. if no applicable regional procedures have been established, proceed at a level which differs
from the cruising levels normally used for IFR flight in the area by 300m (1000 ft) if above
FL290 or by 150m (500 ft) if below FL290.

EMERGENCY
Aircraft in distress, uncertain of position or unable to comply with ICAO procedures requesting
intercept and escort should:
a. Switch transponder to emergency code (Mode A, Code 7700);
b. Continue to transmit intentions unless it is positively known that the transmitter is unservicea-
ble;
c. Attempt to alert surface radar by flying the appropriate pattern as follows:
1. IF RECEIVER ONLY IS OPERATING:
– Fly a triangular pattern to the RIGHT.
2. IF RECEIVER IS INOPERATIVE :
– Fly a triangular patter to the LEFT.
such as inability to maintain assigned level due to weather, aircraft performance or pressurization
failure. The are applicable primarily when rapid descent, turnback, or both are required. The
pilot’s judgement shall determine the sequence of actions taken, having regard to the specific cir-
cumstances.
General Procedures
If an aircraft is unable to continue flight in accordance with the ATC clearance, a revised clear-
ance shall, whenever possible, be obtained prior to initiating any action, using distress or urgency
signal as appropriate.
If prior clearance cannot be obtained, an ATC clearance shall be obtained at the earliest possible
time and, until a revised clearance is received, the pilot shall:
a. if possible, deviate away from an organized track or route system;
b. establish communications with and alert nearby aircraft by broadcasting, at suitable intervals:
flight identification, flight level, aircraft position, (including the ATS route designator or the
track code) and intentions on the frequency in use, as well as on frequency 121.5 MHz (or,
as a back-up, the VHF inter-pilot-air-to-air frequency 123.45);
c. watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS (if equipped); and
d. turn on all aircraft exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limitations).
Special Procedures
INITIAL ACTION
– If unable to comply with the provisions of General Procedures the aircraft should leave its
assigned route or tack by turning 90° to the right or left whenever this is possible. The direction
of turn should be determined by the position of the aircraft relative to any organized route or
track system, e.g. whether the aircraft is outside, at the edge of, or within the system. Other
factors to consider are terrain clearance and the levels allocated to adjacent routes or tracks.
SUBSEQUENT ACTION
– An aircraft able to maintain its assigned level should acquire and maintain in either direction a
track laterally separated by 25 NM from its assigned route or track and once established on the
offset track, climb or descend 500 ft (150 m).
An aircraft not able to maintain its assigned level should, whenever possible, minimize its rate
of descent while turning to acquire and maintain in either direction a track laterally separated by
25 NM from its assigned route or track. For subsequent level flight, a level should be selected
which differs by 500 ft (150 m) from those normally used.
DIVERSION ACROSS THE FLOW OF ADJACENT TRAFFIC
– Before commencing a diversion across the flow of adjacent traffic, the aircraft should, while
maintaining the 25 NM offset, expedite climb above or descent below levels where the majority
of Pacific oceanic traffic operate (e.g. to a level above FL 400 or below FL 290) and then main-
tain a level which differs by 500 ft (150 m) from those normally used. However, if the pilot is
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - PACIFIC 1791
NAURU
ICAO DIFFERENCES OR STATE SPECIAL PROCEDURES
unable or unwilling to carry out a major climb or descent, the aircraft should be flown at a level
500 ft (150 m) above or below levels normally used until a new ATC clearance is obtained.
EXTENDED RANGE OPERATIONS BY TWO-TURBINE POWER UNITS (ETOPS) AIRCRAFT
– If these contingency procedures are employed by a twin engine aircraft as a result of an engine
shutdown or a failure of an ETOPS critical system, the pilot should advise ATC as soon as
practicable of the situation, reminding ATC of the type of aircraft involved and requesting expe-
ditious handling.
UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE
The pilot in command of an aircraft which is being subjected to unlawful interference or threat of
unlawful interference should endeavour to inform an ATS unit of the fact, together with details of
any consequent deviation from the current flight plan and other significant factors affecting the
operation, to enable the ground station to give priority to the aircraft and to alert organizations
likely to be involved.
Whenever circumstances permit, the pilot should transmit in plain language, as fully as possible to
the ATS units concerned, the nature and details of the interference.
In addition to the action set out above or where that action is not possible due to the circumstan-
ces, a pilot able to do so should activate the aircraft Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) trans-
ponder on Mode A Code 7500 to indicate specifically that it is being subjected to unlawful interfer-
ence.
Pilots of aircraft no equipped with SSR and/or aircraft flying in an area where the availability of
ground based SSR is non-existent or unknown, in circumstances where they are under such
threat that they do not have unrestricted use of the aircraft radio, may, if it is safe and practical to
do so, insert in any RTF transmissions the words “CHANNEL SEVEN FIVE HUNDRED” after the
aircraft’s call sign, to indicate specifically that it is being subjected to unlawful interference.
GENERAL
In general, the Emergency, Unlawful Interference, Communications Failure, Interception, and
Search and Rescue procedures are in conformity with the Standards, Recommended Practices
and Procedures contained in ICAO Annexes and Documents.
a. maintain the last assigned level(s) to the points specified, then climb to maintain the level(s)
in the current flight plan; or
b. if no points are specified, maintain the last assigned level, or minimum flight altitude if higher,
for five minutes, then climb to maintain the level(s) specified in the current flight plan.
Departure — Radar Vectors
The pilot of an IFR aircraft that experiences communications failure on departure should:
a. maintain the last assigned vector for two minutes, and climb to minimum safe altitude if nec-
essary to maintain terrain clearance; and
b. proceed in accordance with the route specified in the current flight plan.
Arrival
On arrival, the pilot of an IFR aircraft experiencing communications failure should:
a. track to the destination aid/fix, or if none specified by ATC, the selected aid/fix for the known
or forecast RWY; and
b. if in receipt of an arrival clearance (STAR or equivalent clearance/procedure), track via the
clearance; and
c. commence descent to the initial approach altitude for the approach procedure in accordance
with the last acknowledged ATC clearance and then the standard operating procedures (i.e.
3° profile) or flight plan.
At or Within 25 NM from Destination
At or within 25 NM from destination, the pilot of an IFR aircraft experiencing communication failure
should:
a. arrive over the destination/selected aid/fix at the last assigned level at or as near as possible
to the expected approach time given by ATC, and commence approach; or
b. if too high, descend in the aid/fix holding pattern to a level convenient for approach; or
c. if on initial approach at the time of the communications failure but not cleared for the
approach, continue via the procedure and maintain the last assigned level until established
on final approach track, then commence approach; or
d. if too high:
1. if a holding pattern is established on the final approach track, descend in the holding
pattern to a level convenient for approach; or
2. if no holding pattern is established, carry out missed approach and position for another
approach, if specified diversion allows.
Radar Vectors on Arrival
The pilot of an IFR aircraft that experiences communications failure while being radar vectored on
arrival should:
STATE RULES AND PROCEDURES - PACIFIC 1795

b. if on initial/intermediate approach, maintain the last assigned level until established on final
approach track, and then commence approach.
Diversion
If unable to achieve a landing following an approach, the pilot of an IFR aircraft that experiences
communications failure should carry out a missed approach.
A second approach may be made if desired, provided a landing can be accomplished within 30
minutes of the expected approach time or the ETA, whichever is the latter. If this approach is
unsuccessful, the aircraft must divert to the alternate airport.
The pilot of an IFR aircraft that experiences communications failure while holding because of the
closure of the destination airport should hold until the divert time notified to ATC, and then depart
for the alternate airport.

indicate specifically that it is being subjected to unlawful interference.
COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE
SPEECHLESS TECHNIQUE USING UNMODULATED TRANSMISSIONS
When a pilot is able to communicate only by an unmodulated transmission (e.g., when the trans-
mitter is operative but the microphone unserviceable) the following technique will be employed by
ATS.
When an unmodulated transmission is received, the ATS operator will request the pilot to activate
the transmitter three times. Once the pilot complies the ATS operator will frame questions requir-
ing a “YES” or “NO” answer to ascertain if the aircraft:
a. can continue visually;
b. can execute an instrument approach; or
c. has reached a nominate position.
The above and any other information required will be obtained by requiring the pilot to use the
following code:
“YES” or “ROGER” — activate transmitter once
“NO” — activate transmitter twice
“SAY AGAIN” — activate transmitter three times
“AT NOMINATED POSITION” — activate transmitter four times
When it is established that the aircraft can receive, control may be exercised in the normal
manner except that frequency changes will not be requested unless there is no alternative.

EMERGENCY
A pilot in any distress or urgency condition should climb, if possible, for improved communica-
tions, and better radar and direction finding detection. However, it must be understood that unau-
thorized climb or descent under IFR conditions within controlled airspace is prohibited, except as
permitted by FAR 91.3(b) (in an emergency the pilot-in-command may deviate from any rule to
the extent required to meet that emergency).
UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE
SPECIAL EMERGENCIES (AIR PIRACY)
A special emergency is a condition of air piracy, or other hostile act by person(s) aboard an air-
craft, which threatens the safety of the aircraft or its passengers.
The pilot of an aircraft reporting a special emergency condition should:
a. If circumstances permit, apply distress or urgency radio-telephony procedures. Include the
details of the special emergency.
b. If circumstances do not permit the use of prescribed distress or urgency procedures, transmit
on the air-ground frequency in use at the time as many as possible of the following elements
spoken distinctly and in the following order:
1. Name of the station addressed (time and circumstances permitting);
2. The identification of the aircraft and present position;
3. The nature of the special emergency condition and pilot intentions (circumstances per-
mitting);
4. If unable to provide this information, use code words and/or transponder as follows:
– Spoken Words — “TRANSPONDER SEVEN FIVE ZERO ZERO”. Meaning — ”Am
being hijacked/forced to a new destination”;
– Transponder Setting — Mode 3/A, Code 7500.
If it is possible to do so without jeopardizing the safety of the flight, the pilot of a hijacked passen-
ger aircraft, after departing from the cleared routing over which the aircraft was operating, will
attempt to do one or more of the following, insofar as circumstances may permit:
a. Maintain a true airspeed of no more than 400 kt, and preferably an altitude between 10,000'
and 25,000'.
b. Fly a course toward the destination which the hijacker has announced.
If these procedures result in either radio contact or an air intercept, the pilot will attempt to comply
with any instructions received which may direct him to an appropriate landing field.

ICAO DIFFERENCES OR STATE SPECIAL PROCEDURES
GENERAL
In general, the Emergency, Unlawful Interference, Communications Failure, Interception and
Search and Rescue procedures are in conformity with the Standards, Recommended Practices
and Procedures contained in ICAO Annexes and Documents.
UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE
General
The following procedures are intended for use by aircraft when unlawful interference occurs and
the aircraft is unable to notify an ATS unit of this fact.
Procedures
Unless considerations aboard the aircraft dictate otherwise, the pilot-in-command should attempt
to continue flying on the assigned track and at the assigned cruising level at least until notification
to an ATS unit is possible or the aircraft is within radar coverage.
When an aircraft subjected to an act of unlawful interference must depart from its assigned track
or its assigned cruising level without being able to make radiotelephony contact with ATS, the
pilot-in-command should, whenever possible:
– attempt to broadcast warnings on the VHF emergency frequency and other appropriate fre-
quencies, unless considerations aboard the aircraft dictate otherwise. Other equipment such as
onboard transponders, data links, etc. should also be used when it is advantageous to do so
and circumstances permit; and
– proceed in accordance with applicable special procedures for in-flight contingencies, where
such procedures have been established and promulgated in ICAO Doc 7030 - Regional Sup-
plementary Procedures (not printed herein); or
– if no applicable regional procedures have been established, proceed at a level which differs
from the cruising levels normally used for IFR flight in the area by 1000ft if above FL290 or
500ft if below FL290.

Specific aircraft may need to be involved in special operations during the period when a FIR is an
activated contingency zone. These aircraft may therefore be unable to utilize the contingency
route structure for a significant period of their flights, aircraft that will be classified as special oper-
ations are as follows:
a. Special operations of State aircraft
b. Aircraft in emergency situations or operating with significant reduction in operating efficiency
c. Mercy flights and aircraft engaged in search and rescue, medical evacuation, and
d. Coastal surveillance operations.
For details see Jeppesen ATC — Chapter “Traffic Information Broadcasts by Aircraft (TIBA)”.
JAKARTA FIR
In the event of disruption of the ATC services provided by Jakarta ACC, airspace is delegated to
all ATS units (under jurisdiction of Jakarta ACC) and Ujung Pandang FIC will be introduced to
ensure safety of flight and to facilitate flight operations of domestic flight commensurate with the
prevailing conditions.
All TMAs under jurisdiction of Jakarta ACC will be raised vertically up to FL280.
Ujung Pandang FIC, which is undertaking Jakarta FIR, has a responsibility for flight information
service to all aircraft up to FL280.
a. Category A - airspace safe, but restricted or no ATS, due to causal events such as industrial
action, pandemic, earthquake, nuclear emergency affecting the provision of ATS, or ATM
system failure of degradation;
b. Category B - airspace not safe, due to causal events such as Volcanic Ash Cloud (VAC),
nuclear emergency, military activity, and;
c. Category C – airspace not available, due to causal events such as pandemic, national secur-
ity – normally a political decision.
Airspace Classification
If ATC services become unavailable during the interruption of ATS, and depending on the level of
service and anticipated outage of facilities, airspace classifications may be changed to reflect the
reduced level of services. Changes to airspace classification will be notified by NOTAM or rele-
vant information.
Aircraft Position Reporting
Pilots will continue to make routine position reports in line with normal ATC reporting procedures.
COMMUNICATION PROCEDURES
Degradation of Communication - Pilot Radio Procedures
When operating within the contingency airspace of the Jakarta FIR or Ujung Pandang FIR, pilots
should use normal radio communication procedures where ATS services are available. These will
be in accordance with the communication procedures in this Plan or as otherwise notified by
NOTAM or relevant information
If communication is lost unexpectedly on the normal ATS frequencies, pilots should try the next
applicable frequency, e.g. if enroute contact is lost then try the next appropriate frequency, that is,
the next normal handover frequency. Pilots should also consider attempting to contact ATC on the
last frequency where two-way communication had been established. In the absence of no com-
munication with ATC, the pilot should continue to make routine position reports on the assigned
frequency, and also broadcast positions in accordance with the communication failure proce-
dures.

AIRCRAFT SEPARATION
The longitudinal separation will be 15 minutes. However, this may be reduced to 10 minutes in
conjunction with application of the Mach number technique where authorized by CAAS and the
agreed ATS coordination with the adjacent ATS authority.
The contingency route structure provides for lateral separation of 100NM. In cases where the lat-
eral spacing of contingency routes is less than 100NM, a minimum vertical separation of 1000ft
will be applicable.
authority is not responsible for coordination or provision of overflight clearances for Singapore
FIR. The airspace users must ensure any required overflight approval has been obtained.
Pilot Operating Procedures
Pilots will continue to make or broadcast routine position reports in line with normal ATC proce-
dures.
Pilots of aircraft operating in the Singapore FIR during contingency operations shall comply with
the following procedures:
a. all aircraft proceeding along the ATS routes established in this Contingency Plan will comply
with IFR and will be assigned a flight level in accordance with the flight level allocation
scheme applicable to the route(s) being flown as specified in CONTINGENCY ATS ROUTE
NETWORK below;
b. aircraft are to flight plan using the Contingency Routes specified below, according to their
airport of origin and destination;
c. aircraft are to operate as close as possible to the centerline of the assigned contingency
route;
d. a continuous communication watch shall be maintained on the specified contingency fre-
quency as specified in CONTINGENCY ATS ROUTE NETWORK below;
e. aircraft position reports and other information as necessary shall be broadcast in accord-
ance with TIBA procedures;
f. aircraft navigation and anti-collision lights shall be displayed;
g. except in cases of emergency or for reasons of flight safety, pilots are to maintain the last
assigned flight level, MACH number and SSR transponder code during their entire flight
within Singapore FIR. If no transponder code has been assigned, aircraft shall squawk Code
2000;
h. aircraft are to reach the flight level last assigned by the responsible ACC at least 10 minutes
before entering the Singapore FIR or as otherwise instructed by the ATC unit acting in
accordance with the Operational Contingency Arrangement;
i. pilots are to contact the next adjacent ACC as soon as possible, and in any event not less
than 10 minutes before the estimated time of arrival over the relevant exit point from the Sin-
gapore FIR;
j. pilots are to strictly adhere to the ICAO TIBA procedures on the specified VHF and HF fre-
quencies listed in CONTINGENCY ATS ROUTE NETWORK below. When necessitated by
emergency conditions or flight safety requirements, pilots are to transmit blind on these fre-
quencies, their current circumstances and the commencement and completion of any climb
and descent or deviation from the cleared contingency route;
k. whenever emergencies and/or flight safety reasons make it impossible to maintain the flight
level assigned for transit of Singapore FIR, pilots are to comply with the special procedures
for in-flight contingencies. If the deviation brings the aircraft out of Singapore FIR, pilots are

to immediately inform the ACC unit responsible for that airspace. Pilots are to broadcast
details of any level change including aircraft identification, aircraft position and route, vaca-
ted flight level, intended flight level; flight level passed and cruising flight level on 121.5MHz;
l. pilots are to maintain own longitudinal separation of 15 minutes from preceding aircraft at
the same cruising level. However, this may be reduced to 10 minutes in conjunction with
application of the Mach number technique where authorized by CAAS and the agreed ATS
coordination with the adjacent ATS authority; and
m. not all operational circumstances can be addressed by this Contingency Plan and pilots are
to maintain a high level of alertness when operating in the contingency airspace and take
appropriate action to ensure safety of aircraft.
Interception of Civil Aircraft
Aircraft operators must be familiar with international intercept procedures contained in ICAO
Annex 2 - Rules of the Air, paragraph 3.8 and Appendix 2, Sections 2 and 3.
Pilots are to comply with instructions given by the pilot of the intercepting aircraft. In such circum-
stances, the pilot of the aircraft being intercepted shall broadcast information on the situation.
If circumstances leading to the closure of the Singapore FIR where no contingency routes are
available, aircraft will be required to keep clear of Singapore FIR. As much warning as possible
will be provided by the appropriate ATS authorities in the event of the complete closure of air-
space.
Pilots shall continuously guard the VHF emergency frequency 121.5MHz and shall operate their
transponder at all times during flight, regardless of whether the aircraft is within or outside air-
space where SSR is used for ATS purposes. Transponder should be set on the last discrete code
assigned by ATC or select Code 2000 if no code was assigned.
COMMUNICATION PROCEDURES
Degradation of Communication - Pilot Radio Procedures
When operating within the contingency airspace, pilots should use normal radio communication
procedures where ATS services are available. Where limited or no ATS is available, communica-
tion shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures in this plan or as otherwise notified by
NOTAM.
If communication is lost unexpectedly on the normal ATS frequencies, pilots shall try the next
applicable frequency, e.g. if enroute contact is lost, pilots shall try the next appropriate frequency
(the next normal handover frequency). Pilots should also consider attempting to contact ATC on
the last frequency where two-way communication had been established. In the absence of com-
munication with ATC, the pilot shall continue to make routine position reports on the assigned fre-
quency, and also broadcast positions in accordance with the TIBA procedures.

case of deviating beyond the FIR, pilots have to inform ACC responsible for that area immedi-
ately. Blinded transmission is done on VHF frequency 121.5MHz and by broadcasting on fre-
quency 123.45MHz related emergency flight level change message (including aircraft callsign,
position, passing flight level, flight level left, …).
– Pilots are to strictly follow the in-flight broadcasting procedures and monitor VHF frequency
123.45MHz continuously.
– Pilots have to make position reports at the latest reporting point before entering into contin-
gency airspace as well as information on estimated time of entering and leaving contingency
airspace; make position reports when over compulsory position reporting point established on
contingency route.
– Pilots need to contact with ATS contingency unit immediately (at least 10 minutes before the
estimated time of arriving/crossing transfer of control boundary). Pilots have to maintain the
highest consciousness when operating in the contingency airspace and have appropriate
action to ensure safety for the flight.
Interception of Civil Aircraft
Pilots need to be aware that according to current international circumstances, their aircraft might
be intercepted by military aircraft on contingency route. Aircraft operators must therefore be famil-
iar with international interception procedures contained in ICAO Annex 2.
COMMUNICATION PROCEDURES
When operating within the contingency airspace, pilots should use normal radio communication
procedures where ATC services are available. These will be in accordance with the communica-
tion procedures in this plan or as otherwise notified by NOTAM.
If communications are lost unexpectedly on the normal ATC frequencies, pilots should try the next
applicable frequency, e.g. if enroute contact is lost then try the next appropriate frequency. Pilots
should also consider attempting to contact with ATS unit on the latest frequency where two-way
communication recovered. In the absence of communication with ATS unit, the pilot should con-
tinue to make routine position reports on the assigned frequency, and also broadcast positions on
assigned contingency frequency.

EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1847
FAR EAST
SPECIAL PROCEDURES FOR IN-FLIGHT CONTINGENCIES
Subsequent Action
Aircraft able to maintain Level
An aircraft able to maintain its assigned level should acquire and maintain in either direction a
track laterally separated by 15NM from its assigned route or track and once established on the
offset track, climb or descend 500ft (150m).
Aircraft unable to maintain Level
An aircraft NOT able to maintain its assigned level should, whenever possible, minimize its rate of
descent while turning to acquire and maintain in either direction a track laterally separated by
15NM from its assigned route or track. For subsequent level flight, a level should be selected
which differs by 500ft (150m) from those normally used.
Diversion across the Flow of adjacent Traffic
Before commencing a diversion across the flow of adjacent traffic, the aircraft should, while main-
taining the 15NM offset, expedite climb above or descent below levels where the majority of air-
craft operate (e.g., to a level above FL400 or below FL290) and then maintain a level which differs
by 500ft (150m) from those normally used. However, if the pilot is unable or unwilling to carry out
a major climb or descent, the aircraft should be flown at a level 500ft (150m) above or below
levels normally used until a new ATC clearance is obtained.
Extended range Operations by Aeroplanes with two-turbine power-units (ETOPS) Aircraft
If these contingency procedures are employed by a twin-engine aircraft as a result of an engine
shutdown or a failure of an ETOPS critical system, the pilot should advise ATC as soon as practi-
cable of the situation, reminding ATC of the type of aircraft involved and requesting expeditious
handling.
The pilot still retains the option of initiating the communications using the urgency call “PAN PAN”
(preferably spoken three times) to alert all listening parties to a special handling condition which
will receive ATC priority for issuance of a clearance or assistance.
Actions to be Taken if Pilot-Controller Communications are Established
The pilot notifies ATC and requests clearance to deviate from track, advising, when possible, the
extent of the deviation expected.
Sample Phraseology: “UNABLE (requested deviation), TRAFFIC IS (call sign, position, level,
direction), ADVISE INTENTIONS”.
The pilot will take the following actions:
a. advise ATC of intentions; and
b. comply with the ATC clearance issued; or
c. execute the procedures “Actions to be taken if a revised ATC Clearance cannot be obtained”
below (ATC will issue essential traffic information to all affected aircraft); and
d. if necessary, establish voice communications with ATC to expedite dialogue on the situation.
Actions to be Taken if a Revised ATC Clearance Cannot be Obtained
If a revised ATC clearance cannot be obtained and deviation from track is required to avoid
weather, the pilot shall take the following actions:
a. if possible, deviate away from an organized track or route system;
b. establish communications with and alert nearby aircraft, broadcasting at suitable intervals-
aircraft identification, flight level, position, ATS route designator and intentions, on the fre-
quency in use and on frequency 121.5MHz (or, as a backup, on the VHF inter-pilot air-to-air
frequency 123.45MHz);
c. watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS/TCAS;
d. turn on all aircraft exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limitations);
e. for deviations of less than 10NM aircraft should remain at a level assigned by ATC;
f. for deviations of greater than 10NM, when the aircraft is approximately 10NM from track, ini-
tiate a level change based on the criteria in Table below;
g. if contact was not established prior to deviating, continue to attempt to contact ATC to obtain
a clearance. If contact was established, continue to keep ATC advised of intentions and
obtain essential traffic information;
h. when returning to track, be at its assigned flight level, when the aircraft is within approxi-
mately 10NM of centerline.
NOTE: If, as a result of actions taken under b. and c. above the pilot determines that there is
another aircraft at or near the same flight level with which a conflict may occur, then the pilot is
expected to adjust the path of the aircraft, as necessary, to avoid conflict.

SPECIAL PROCEDURES FOR IN-FLIGHT CONTINGENCIES
c. Turn on all aircraft exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limitations);
d. Keep the SSR transponder on at all times and, when able, squawk 7700, as appropriate and,
if equipped with ADS-B or ADS-C, select the appropriate emergency functionality;
e. As soon as practicable advise air traffic control of any deviation from their assigned clear-
ance;
f. Use means as appropriate (i.e. voice and/or CPDLC) to communicate during a contingency
or emergency;
g. If voice communications are used the radiotelephony distress signal (MAYDAY) or urgency
signal (PAN PAN) preferably spoken three times, shall be used, as appropriate;
h. When emergency situations are communicated via CPDLC the controller may respond via
CPDLC. However, the controller may also attempt to make voice contact with the aircraft;
i. Establish communications with and alert nearby aircraft by broadcasting on the frequencies
in use and at suitable intervals on 121.5 MHz (or, as a backup, on the inter-pilot air-to-air
frequency 123.45 MHz): aircraft identification, the nature of the distress condition, intention
of the pilot, position (including the ATS route designator or the track code, as appropriate)
and flight level.
Actions to be Taken Once Offset from Track
NOTE: The pilot’s judgement of the situation and the need to ensure the safety of the aircraft will
determine the actions outlined to be taken. Factors for the pilot to consider when deviating from
the cleared track or ATS route or level without an ATC clearance include, but are not limited to:
a. Operation within a parallel track system;
b. The potential for user preferred routes (UPRs) parallel to the aircraft’s track or ATS route;
c. The nature of the contingency (e.g., aircraft system malfunction); and
d. Weather factors (e.g., convective weather at lower flight levels).
If possible, maintain the assigned flight level until established on the 5 NM parallel, same direction
track or ATS route offset. If unable, initially minimize the rate of descent to the extent that is
operationally feasible.
Once established on a parallel, same direction track or ATS route offset by 5 NM, either:
a. Descend below FL290, and establish a 500 ft vertical offset from those flight levels normally
used, and proceed as required by the operational situation or if an ATC clearance has been
obtained, in accordance with the clearance; or
b. Establish a 500 ft vertical offset (or 1000 ft vertical offset if above FL410) from those flight
levels normally used, and proceed as required by the operational situation, or if an ATC
clearance has been obtained, in accordance with the clearance.
NOTE: Altimetry system errors (ASE) may result in less than 500 ft vertical spacing (less than
1000 ft above FL410) when the above contingency procedure is applied.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - FAR EAST 1852
FAR EAST
SPECIAL PROCEDURES FOR IN-FLIGHT CONTINGENCIES
e. For deviations of less than 5 NM from the originally cleared track or ATS route, remain at a
level assigned by ATC;
f. For deviations greater than or equal to 5 NM from the originally cleared track or ATS route,
when the aircraft is approximately 5 NM from track, initiate a level change in accordance with
the table below;
g. If the pilot receives clearance to deviate from cleared track or ATS route for a specified dis-
tance and, subsequently, requests, but cannot obtain a clearance to deviate beyond that dis-
tance, the pilot should apply an altitude offset in accordance with the table below before
deviating beyond the cleared distance;
h. When returning to track or ATS route, be at its assigned flight level when the aircraft is within
approximately 5 NM of the centerline; and
i. If contact was not established prior to deviating, continue to attempt to contact ATC to obtain
a clearance. If contact was established, continue to keep ATC advised of intentions and
obtain essential traffic information.
NOTE: If, as a result of actions taken under the provisions above, the pilot determines that there
is another aircraft at or near the same flight level with which a conflict may occur, then the pilot is
expected to adjust the path of the aircraft, as necessary, to avoid conflict.
a. If an aircraft is unable to continue flight in accordance with its ATC clearance, a revised
clearance shall, whenever possible, be obtained prior to initiating any action, using a distress
or urgency signal as appropriate.
b. If prior clearance cannot be obtained, an ATC clearance shall be obtained at the earliest
possible time and, until a revised clearance is received, the pilot shall:
1. if possible, deviate away from an organized track or route system;
2. establish communications with and alert nearby aircraft by broadcasting, at suitable
intervals: flight identification, flight level, aircraft position, (including the ATS route desig-
nator or the track code) and intentions on the frequency in use, as well as on frequency
121.5MHz (or, as a back-up, the VHF inter-pilot air-to-air frequency 123.45 MHz);
3. watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS/TCAS; and
4. turn on all aircraft exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limitations).
a major climb or descent, the aircraft should be flown at a level 500ft (150m) above or below
levels normally used until a new ATC clearance is obtained.
Extended range Operations by Aeroplanes with two-turbine power-units (ETOPS) Aircraft
If these contingency procedures are employed by a twin-engine aircraft as a result of an engine
shutdown or a failure of an ETOPS critical system, the pilot should advise ATC as soon as practi-
cable of the situation, reminding ATC of the type of aircraft involved and requesting expeditious
handling.

essential traffic information to all affected aircraft.
GENERAL
In general, the Emergency, Unlawful Interference, Communications Failure, Interception, and
Search and Rescue procedures are in conformity with the Standards, Recommended Practices
and Procedures contained in ICAO Annexes and Documents.
EMERGENCY
The distress call (MAYDAY, three times) alerts all listening parties of an aircraft emergency, which
will receive priority handling and possible assistance from other sources.
The transmission by a station not in distress itself relaying a distress message shall always be
preceded by the signal MAYDAY RELAY pronounced as the French expression “M’aider relais”.

COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE
In the event of failure of two-way communications while operating on a radar frequency, the pilot
shall change to any other alternative ATC frequencies and request instructions.
If able to receive but not transmit, the pilot shall remain on the frequency on which he has been
communicating and comply with instructions issued by the radar controller designed to establish
that the aircraft is receiving. If this is established, further instructions appropriate to the circum-
stances will be issued.
If unable to make contact on the alternative frequencies, the pilot shall comply with the standard
radio failure procedures as specified below.
If total radio communication failure occurs in VMC during daylight hours, the pilot shall continue to
fly in VMC and land at the most suitable airport.
If total communication failure occurs in IMC, or in VMC during the hours of darkness (between
sunset and sunrise), ATC action is based on the assumption that the aircraft will continue to its
destination and, if unable to land, will proceed to its nominated alternate. Separation standards
will be increased and airspace reserved accordingly.
In IMC, or if unable to maintain VFR, the pilot shall either leave or avoid controlled airspace and
areas of dense traffic and establish VFR operations or, alternatively, shall:
a. Proceed according to the current flight plan, at the last assigned flight level, to the clearance
limit and thereafter at the flight plan level;
b. Arrive at the destination as close as possible to the ETA.
c. Commence descent as close as possible to estimated approach time (EAT) (or ETA if no
EAT has been acknowledged).

AIRPORT DIRECTORY
General
Airports are listed by location (city) and State/Territory. Airport names are included in parenthesis
when different than the location name. A cross reference by airport name is provided when differ-
ent than the location name. Diagrams are provided, when available, for airports which do not have
an instrument approach procedure published.
Operations at Uncertified Airports
The information about the movement areas and lighting details of airports that are uncertified and
unregistered is subject to change without prior notice and is NOT subject to NOTAM action.
Pilots and operators must contact the airport operator directly to ensure currency and accuracy of
airport information.
State/Territory abbreviations used in location names:
Australian Capital Territory – ACT
New South Wales – NSW
Northern Territory – NT
Queensland – QLD
South Australia – SA
Tasmania – TAS
Victoria – VIC
Western Australia – WA
Airport Location Identifiers
Each airport is assigned a four letter Jeppesen Navdata (ICAO) identifier.
Elevation, Magnetic Variation and Geographical Location
Airport elevation at the airport reference point is provided in feet above mean sea level (QNH).
Magnetic variation is provided in whole degrees. The geographical location of the airport refer-
ence point is provided in degrees, minutes and tenths of a minute.
Airport Operator/Telephone Number
The airport operator name is provided with a contact telephone number. A FAX number is also
included where a facsimile service is available to the airport operator.
Hours of Operation
Airport hours of operation are shown in UTC. Where local time is intended it will be followed by
the abbreviation LT (Local Time). Local time in Australia falls into three separate zones; Eastern
AIRPORT DATA - AUSTRALIA 1925
AUSTRALIA
LEGEND
Standard Time (EST), which is UTC plus 10 hours, Central Standard Time (CST), which is UTC
plus 9 1/2 hours, and Western Standard Time (WST), which is UTC plus 8 hours.
These times apply as follows:
EST is used in the States of New South Wales, (except the Broken Hill area), Queensland, Victo-
ria, Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory;
CST is used in the State of South Australia, the Northern Territory and the Broken Hill area;
WST is used in the State of Western Australia.
Allowance should be made for any daylight saving that may be in force.
Airport Lighting
Lighting activation for VFR airports and other available lighting will be indicated in the text. Stand
by Power Available with certain restrictional notes will be listed for airports with Standard Instru-
ment Approach Procedures and VFR airports.
Reference AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL AIRPORTS AND GROUND AIDS for information on pilot
activated lighting (PAL).
See INTRODUCTION - APPROACH CHART LEGEND for runway and approach lighting abbrevi-
ations used in this section.
Runway Data
Runway information will be listed in the text at locations where an airport diagram is not available.
Runway Bearing Strength
ICAO Aircraft Classification Number/Pavement Classification Number (ACN/PCN) method is used
to specify the strength of pavements and hence permissible aircraft masses. The operation of an
aircraft above the maximum mass and tire pressures is not permitted unless a pavement conces-
sion is approved. Omission of pavement strength indicates that the runway is unrated. See Pave-
ment Strength Limitations this section for details regarding runway bearing strengths.
Additional Airport Information
Remarks as to special procedures, right hand circuits, etc., are included.
Customs
Refer to ENTRY REQUIREMENTS for national regulations and customs information.
Communications
Operating hours of control towers are provided in UTC unless otherwise stated. For VFR airports,
the primary frequencies are listed for ATIS, Approach Control furnishing VFR advisories, Tower,
Ground, Flight Information Service (FIS), Flight Information Area (FIA), and Common Traffic Advi-
sory Frequency (CTAF). Pilots of inbound traffic should monitor and communicate as appropriate
on the designated CTAF from 10 miles to landing. Pilots of departing aircraft should monitor/
communicate on the appropriate frequency from start-up, during taxi, and until 10 miles from the
airport unless local procedures require otherwise. Pilots of aircraft conducting other than arriving
AIRPORT DATA - AUSTRALIA 1926
AUSTRALIA
LEGEND
or departing operations at altitudes normally used by arriving and departing aircraft should moni-
tor/communicate on the appropriate frequency while within 10 miles of the airport unless required
to do otherwise by local procedures.
A (CA/GRS) certified air/ground radio service is an airport radio information service; not an air
traffic service. Pilots retain full responsibility to decide whether to accept and use the information.
CA/GRS provides the following information: confirmation of frequency, relevant traffic in CTAF &
maneuvering area of airport, weather conditions if no ATIS exists, other local information, and
emergency services call-out.
An airport frequency response unit (AFRU) will provide an automatic response when pilots trans-
mit on the traffic frequency for the particular airport, normally the CTAF. It will assist in indicating
inadvertent selection of the incorrect VHF frequency when pilots operate into uncontrolled air-
ports.
Rescue and Fire Fighting System
Airport categories for rescue and fire fighting are based on the over-all length of the longest air-
craft normally using the airport and its maximum fuselage width. Note that the figures below refer
to quantities and discharge rates for water. Different figures apply to other extinguishing agents.
The rescue and fire fighting capability will be shown in the airport listings as “Fire” followed by the
category number (e.g., Fire 5). If different category numbers are published for one airport, the
lowest category number will be shown. The higher category number with the relevant note (e.g.,
Fire 7 PTO, Fire 7 PPR...etc.) can be found within the Airport information block. PTO abbrevia-
tions used with Fire stand for Part time operations.
REPLENISHMENT
Replenishment information is listed by supplier, with telephone number and hours of operation.
Replenishment facilities are listed using the following codes. The left hand column below shows
the codes used, followed by a description. Finally, (in brackets) the Australian designation, where
applicable.

RESA (RUNWAY END SAFETY AREA) RESA — is the cleared and graded area adjacent to the
end of a runway or stopway intended for use in the event of an aircraft undershooting or overrun-
ning the runway. In Australia, a minimum RESA of 60m (197') is provided, except for runway serv-
ing only code 1 runway where 30m (99') is the minimum. The minimum RESA for a runway serv-
ing jet aircraft used for scheduled air transport operation is 90m (295'). Because of the require-
ment for a RESA, the declaring of less than the full runway length to be available for take-off or
landing is sometimes necessary.
AIRPORT REFERENCE CODE — CODE NUMBER (CN) — A reference code number is provi-
ded for each Rwy listed in the Rwy distances tables. This code number indicates the maximum
field length of the aircraft that the Rwy is designed for. Code numbers and associated field lengths
are:
a. Field length of less than 2624' (800m).
b. Field length of 2624' (800) up to but not including 3936' (1200m).
c. Field length of 3936' (1200m) up to but not including 5904' (1800m).
d. Field length of 5904' (1800m) and over.
Note that the field length of an aircraft is based on the performance of an aircraft during certifica-
tion and is not related to the actual Rwy length provided at an airport.
Use the code number to determine the applicable standards of obstacle-clear approach gradients,
take-off gradients & take-off survey areas for the Rwy. The code number is not intended to limit
aircraft operations at an airport. Aircraft operators and/or pilots must ensure that the published air-
port information meets requirements for their aircraft operations.
OBSTACLE-CLEAR APPROACH GRADIENTS
The threshold is located at least 60m from the intersection of the obstacle clear approach surface
with the extended runway centerline. The standards for the obstacle clear approach gradients are:
5% for a code 1 runway,
4% for a code 2 runway,
3.3% for a code 3 and 4 runway,
3.3% for NPA Code 1, 2 or 3 runway, and
2% for NPA code 4 and an INST runway.
Variations to the approach gradients will be explained in a note under the relevant declared dis-
tances entry.
OBSTACLE CLEAR TAKE-OFF GRADIENTS
Areas from the ends of runways, defined in accordance with the table below, are surveyed for
obstacles. The obstacle-clear take-off gradient is based on the greatest vertical angle with the
horizontal subtended by an obstacle within the surveyed area. This gradient information is shown
in brackets immediately following the TODA information. Liaise with the AD OPR if obstacle infor-
mation is required.
AIRPORT DATA - AUSTRALIA 1933
AUSTRALIA
LEGEND
Supplementary Take-Off Distances Available (STODA) are shown for obstacle-clear take-off gra-
dients (within the same defined area) of 1.6%, 1.9%, 2.2%, 2.5%, 3.3% and 5% if the TODA gra-
dient exceeds these figures and the resultant STODA is greater than 800m.
Where an existing fence or levee is located very close to the runway end, the fence or levee may
not be taken into account in the assessment of the obstacle-clear take-off gradients for TODA and
STODA purposes. In such cases, information of the height and location of the fence or levee will
be provided in a note under the relevant declared distances entry.
If the survey area is not in accordance with the table below, details of the actual obstacle survey
area are provided below the relevant declared distances entry.
Take-off Runways
SLOPE — On runway quoted is the difference between the maximum and the minimum elevation
along the centerline of the runway divided by its length and expressed as a percentage to the
nearest one-tenth of a percent. The “down” slope and its direction are tabulated in all cases, eg,
“0.8% down to SE”. Where significant slope variations occur, additional data may be shown in
notices, eg, “E end level, center section 0.5% down to W, W end 0.1% down to E”.
RWS WIDTH — is the width from side to side which contains the runway, the graded and ungra-
ded portions of the RWS, shown in meters only. The GRADED portion of the RWS may be
defined by boundary markers and is graded to alleviate damage to an aircraft in the event that it
runs off the runway. The UNGRADED portion of the RWS is free of upstanding objects but may
contain depressions, trenches, etc.

DEFINITIONS
AIRCRAFT CLASSIFICATION NUMBER (ACN) — A number expressing the relative effect of an
aircraft on a pavement for a specified standard subgrade strength.
CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO — The bearing ratio of soil determined by comparing the pene-
tration load of the soil to that of a standard material. The method covers evaluation of the relative
quality of subgrade soils but is applicable to sub-base and some base coarse materials.
EQUIVALENT SINGLE ISOLATED WHEEL LOAD — The equivalent load that would be
imposed on a pavement by a single wheel if any wheel group on an aircraft were replaced by a
single wheel using the same tire pressure.
GROSS WEIGHT — The weight of the aircraft together with the weight of all persons and goods
(including fuel) on board the aircraft at that time.
K — Westergaard’s modulus of subgrade reaction in MN/m3.
KILOPASCALS (KpA) — A measure of pressure or stress in thousands of Pascals.
MEGANEWTONS PER CUBIC METER (MN/m3) — A measure of force in millions of Newtons
per cubic meter.
MEGAPASCALS (MPa) — A measure of pressure or stress in millions of Pascals.
PASCAL (Pa) — The pressure of stress of one (1) Newton per square meter.
PAVEMENT CLASSIFICATION NUMBER (PCN) — A number expressing the bearing strength of
a pavement for unrestricted operations.
PERMISSIBLE ALL-UP WEIGHT — The weight to which an aircraft is limited by virtue of the
physical characteristics of an airport.
ACN/PCN
The Aircraft Classification Number/Pavement Classification Number (ACN/PCN) method is used
to specify the strength of pavements and hence permissible aircraft masses (weights) applicable
for aircraft with an all-up weight of more than 5700kg (12,500 lbs).
The parameters published to specify the strength of a rated pavement suitable for use by aircraft
above 5700kg maximum all-up mass are:
a. Pavement Classification Number — PCN;
b. The pavement type:
R = Rigid Pavement
F = Flexible Pavement
c. Subgrade strength category code:
A = High Strength
B = Medium Strength
AIRPORT DATA - AUSTRALIA 1936
AUSTRALIA
C = Low Strength
D = Ultra-low Strength
d. The maximum tire pressure in Kpa and psi;
e. The method by which the pavement has been evaluated:
T = Technical evaluation
U = From aircraft experience
A coding example of the above parameters for the bearing strength of a rigid pavement, resting
on a medium strength sub-grade, assessed by technical evaluation to be PCN 80:
The parameters published for rated pavements for use by aircraft not above 5700kg maximum all-
up mass are:
a. The permissible aircraft gross mass in kilograms;
b. The maximum tire pressure in kilopascals.
NOTE: Mass in lbs and tire pressure in psi are also provided in parenthesis.
Pavement Concessions
The operation of an aircraft above the maximum masses and tire pressures is not permitted
unless a pavement concession is approved.
However, if the tire pressure exceeds that listed, the permissible pressure may be increased
using the factor obtained from the Permanent Tire Pressure Concessions graph below. If the
pressure requirements are then met, and provided that not more than four movements within a
seven day period are proposed for aircraft above 5700kg maximum gross mass, an aircraft may
use a pavement if its ACN for the appropriate type and subgrade strength does not exceed the
published PCN.
An operator of an aircraft requiring a pavement concession should apply to the airport operator.
AIRPORT DATA - AUSTRALIA 1937
AUSTRALIA
SOLUTION:
ACNs for these aircraft are 55, 62, 70 and 66 respectively. Comparing the ACNs with the PCN of
66 it can be determined that the pavement can accept all aircraft except the DC-10-40.
The DC-10-40 operator must request a pavement concession from the operator or reduce the
operating mass to 532,061 lbs (241,339kg) to arrive at an ACN of 66.
NOTE: When the reported PCN is below the ACN for the Maximum Apron Mass, an all-up mass
can be calculated which is suitable to the lower reported PCN. The ACN varies linearly between
the operating Mass Empty and the Maximum Apron Mass.
Unrated Pavements
An aircraft may operate on an unrated pavement provided the aircraft gross mass and tire pres-
sure do not exceed those determined from the following graph:
