- Spots (stands) 40, 41 and 42.
FLIGHT PROCEDURES
LOW VISIBILITY PROCEDURES (LVP)
RWY 10 is equipped with ILS CAT I and, likewise, RWY 10/28 is authorised for low visibility take-offs (LVTO).
PHASES
a) Preparation phase: When the visibility conditions have deteriorated noticeably, to 1000 m or less, the Preparation phase will be established. The ATC Service will inform the aircraft affected.
b) Activation phase:Low visibility procedures (LVP) shall be applied when any of the following conditions is met:
-
When any transmissometer indicates an RVR of 600 m or less.
-
When the visibility is less than 600 m (in cases of transmissometer failure).
-
When the weather conditions are deteriorating rapidly and this is advisable.
The ATC Service will inform the aircraft affected by radiotelephone that the low visibility procedures are being applied. This information will be recorded in the ATIS system.
c) Cancellation phase:The Low Visibility Procedures will be cancelled when the following conditions are met:
-
When all the transmissometers indicate RVR above 1000 m, or visibility above 1000 m (if the latter are out of service).
-
Clear and favourable improving trend in the weather conditions for a period of at least 10 minutes.
SURFACE MOVEMENTS
a)As a general rule, while the Low Visibility Procedures (LVP) are in force, only one aircraft will be cleared to taxi at a time in the manoeuvring area.
b)Pilots and/or drivers shall proceed to verify the situation of the aircraft at all times, ensuring that taxiing takes place under conditions of complete safety. In the event of disorientation or doubt they shall halt the aircraft/vehicle and notify the Control Tower immediately.
c) Arrivals:
-
An aircraft that has landed, after reporting “RUNWAY VACATED”, shall hold and await taxiing instructions.
-
On entering the parking apron, it shall await the presence of the "FOLLOW ME" vehicle for guidance to the assigned stand. It shall report “FOLLOW ME IN SIGHT” and “TAXIWAY VACATED” to TWR.
d) Departures:
-
Pilots shall request clearance for start-up or taxiing, reporting the spot (stand) and apron exit taxiway requested.
-
When the Low Visibility Procedures are in force, normally only one aircraft will be cleared to taxi in the manoeuvring area at a time.
-
In the event that an aircraft has to return to the apron, the pilot shall inform the tower and await new instructions.
COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE
a) In the case of a departing/arriving aircraft, this shall continue with the designated route up to the clearance limit, taking extreme care and not deviating from the route. Once there, it shall hold until the arrival of a "FOLLOW ME" vehicle.
b)Vehicles with communications failure shall leave the zone not permitted immediately (taxiways, main runway, etc.) and await the arrival of a "FOLLOW ME" vehicle.
SAFETY
a) If in doubt about the position in the manoeuvring area, the pilot must halt the aircraft and report this circumstance to the Tower, including the last known position.
b)The "FOLLOW ME" vehicle shall be available for the guidance of aircraft both in arrivals and departures upon request by the commander.
c)The movement of vehicles in the manoeuvring area shall be restricted to the minimum indispensable.
d)Any incident which could affect the Low Visibility Procedures (LVP) shall be notified immediately to all the aircraft affected so they can take the appropriate measures.
AD TRAFFIC CIRCUIT
Remarks:
- Break-up procedure authorised for tactical military jet aircraft only.
- Jet aircraft entering break-up shall proceed from an initial point at 5 NM from AOG and 2500 ft, descending to 1500 ft over the threshold of the runway in service. Break-up shall be performed with the interval in sight or following the TWR instructions, levelled at 1500 ft and descending to the traffic height once established in the tailwind segment.
