LEHC AD 2 AERODROME DATA

REQUEST FOR AFIS SERVICE

AFIS Service activated by NOTAM.

Requests for the AFIS service should be placed during the operational hours of the airport using the e-mail address operacioneslehc@aena.es . The request should be made at least 24 hours in advance. An affirmative response must be awaited.

It is mandatory for flights whose origin/destination/alternate is Huesca/Pirineos Airport to submit a flight plan and to carry airborne radio equipment both during and outside AFIS hours. The provisions specified in SERA.4001, item b), point 3, shall apply.

Microlight operations at AFIS hours are not allowed.

IFR flights bound for LEHC, when AFIS service is provided:

• ZARAGOZA APP will transfer aircraft to HUESCA AFIS at 6000 ft QNH or another altitude after coordination, once there is no VFR traffic in the airspace within a 5 NM circle centred on Huesca ARP, between SFC-5500 ft AMSL, nor in the airspace beyond 5 NM from the ARP, between 550 ft AGL-5500 ft AMSL for the visual route W and between 1000 ft AGL-5500 ft AMSL for the rest of the area. The control service will finish at the time of transfer, and the aircraft will be notified of the event.

• In the event that several aircraft in IFR flight with destination Huesca/Pirineos arrived at the same time, ZARAGOZA APP will space them with standard separation in the holding pattern over the VOR HUE, and will authorise their descent progressively until reaching 6000 ft QNH (or FL060).

• After the transfer of aircraft in IFR flight to HUESCA AFIS, this unit will provide information and alert services according with AFIS regulations in force.

See AFIS procedures on ENR 1.5 and AD 1.1.

During periods when the aerodrome flight information service is not provided:

• AFIS unit and its frequency will be out of service.

• FIZ will be deactivated and operate as air space class G.

• Only VFR flights are allowed.

• Pilots will use 128.955 C NO ATS frequency to notify intentions and position.

Approach and take-off procedures will not be cleared except for aircraft with LEHC AD destination. Neither simultaneous approach or take-off are allowed to both runways, nor simultaneous take-off in one runway and landing in other runway.

Operations by gliders are not permitted, except for powered sailplanes, which are only permitted to operate on the RWY 12L/30R, and must always make use of their engines for movement around the manoeuvring area and for take-off.

VISUAL OPERATIONS AT NIGHT (VFR-N)

VFR-N flights are permitted on RWY 12R/30L, subject to prior request for schedule extension.

The stands usable during this period shall be: 1, 2 and 3.

Requests should be sent at least 3 days in advance, indicating:

• Identification of the aircraft.

• Type of flight.

• Type of aircraft.

• Number of operations envisaged.

• Dates and times expected.

to the email address: operacioneslehc@aena.es . The confirmation of the operation will be sent by email.

• Aircraft operating as school flights.

REVISION SCHEDULE FOR THE AIRFIELD

Revisions of the airfield will be carried out by the Rescue and Fire Fighting Service on the following schedule:

I: 1230-1300.
V: 1130-1200.

OPERATION OF HELICOPTERS

HELICOPTERS OPERATION FOR AUTHORIZED AIRCRAFT

The type EC-135 and BO-105 helicopters from the Guardia Civil Air Unit in Huesca are the only aircraft authorized to acomplish the following operation procedure.

TAXIING RESTRICTIONS

Aircraft circulating on TWY B should remain in the intermediate holding position if there are aircraft refuelling, except if they are refuelling in position 1, closest to the hangars, in which case they may circulate.

The taxiway to access Hangar 1 and Hangar 2 is restricted to:

• Aircraft type DA40 and DA42.

• Aircraft with maximum gear width 2.6 m.

• Other aircraft, having made a prior study.

WITHOUT AFIS SERVICE

Aircraft moving to the refuelling area, will communicate their post-refuelling intentions on 128.955 C:

1. If it moves through TWY A, it must be clear, so if any aircraft wants to access the hangar area, it should wait on the apron.

2. If it moves again to the hangar area, the section that goes to the hangar should be clear, so other aircraft may wait at the TWY B holding position after leaving TWY A.

REQUEST FOR FIRE CATEGORY INCREASE
