1. START-UP OF ENGINES/JETS.

Note: This section uses abbreviations defined in ENR 1.5.

The use of reverse thrust to leave the stands is forbidden, unless expressly cleared by Airport Authority.

The use of power higher than idle for starting up engines is forbidden at all towed push-back aircraft stands.

To avert the automatic cancellation of flight plans, the EOBT must be maintained up-to-date.

A.Permission to start up engines/jets shall be requested on the frequency stated via ATIS or CLD message. When this permission is requested, the aircraft must be completely ready to start up immediately.

B.For requests by voice, pilots must indicate the full aircraft call sign to ATC, together with the stand occupied and the ATIS message received.

C.Start-up clearance shall be requested:

Aircraft without assigned CTOT: From 15 minutes prior to their EOBT, until 15 minutes after their EOBT.
Aircraft with assigned CTOT: From 20 minutes prior to their CTOT until 10 minutes prior to their CTOT.
To improve the predictability of the TTOT, ATC may issue instructions for start-up clearance to be requested at a specific time.
In periods of high demand, ATC may apply other values which guarantee compliance with the tolerance window of the flight.

1.1 ATC CLEARANCE REQUEST AND START-UP VIA DATA LINK

DCL departure procedures are applied at Fuerteventura Airport in the provision of ATC clearance and start-up services. For more information on the DCL service, see AIP ENR 1.5, section 3. DEPARTING FLIGHTS, ATC clearance and start-up via data link (DCL).

In the event of any discrepancy, voice communications will always prevail over data link.

The pilot may request ATC clearance via DCL no earlier than 30 minutes before the EOBT. Approval of start-up jointly with ATC clearance will be facilitated provided that the parameters established in AD 2-GCFV, item 20, General taxiing procedures, 1.A and 1.C, are satisfied.

The pilot shall request ATC clearance and start-up simultaneously via RCD. The RCD message shall contain the following data:
1. Call sign according to the submitted flight plan (FPL).
2. Departure aerodrome.
3. Parking position.
4. Destination aerodrome.
5. Letter of the ATIS information received.
6. ICAO aircraft type.
Any free text sent via the RCD by the pilot will not be considered by ATC. Special requests shall always be made via voice communications.
The pilot will receive a message of acceptance, “RCD RECEIVED”, or of rejection, “RCD REJECTED”. When an RCD message is received earlier than the ranges established in AD 2-GCFV, item 20, General taxiing procedures, the RCD will be accepted and the CLD will be sent with ATC clearance, asking the crew to call when the aircraft is ready and in accordance with their EOBT/CTOT. When an RCD message is received within the ranges established in AD 2-GCFV, item 20, General taxiing procedures, the RCD will be accepted and the CLD will be sent with ATC clearance and approval of start-up.
In the case of acceptance, Fuerteventura Clearance will issue a CLD message with the following fields:
1. Aircraft call sign.
2. Destination aerodrome.
3. Assigned runway for departure.
4. Departure procedure (SID). Note: The initial altitude will be that of the published SID.
5. SSR code mode A (SQUAWK).
6. ADT (Approved Departure Time). Note: ADT = CTOT of the flight, if applicable.
7. Next frequency.
8. Current ATIS information letter.
9. Additional information, which will include start-up clearance or instructions to request it if the start-up approval parameters indicated in AD 2-GCFV, item 20 are not yet satisfied.
When an FSM message of the type “REVERT TO VOICE PROCEDURES” is received, the data link communication will be deemed to have concluded and the revert to voice procedures will be applied.
When the CLD message is received, the pilot:
1. If any inconsistency is detected in the received message, the pilot must revert to voice procedures and request a new clearance.
2. If the pilot considers the CLD clearance message to be correct, he/she must respond via data link with a CDA message.
3. If the pilot is not ready for start-up, he/she shall not accept the clearance and shall contact the controller by voice when ready.
If a CDA message is not received by the pilot within the waiting time, or a CDA that is inconsistent with the previous CLD message is received, the data link communication will be terminated and a “CDA REJECTED” message will be received in the FMS.
When a correct CDA message is received, the ATC system will send the aircraft a “CLEARANCE CONFIRMED” message in the FMS and will terminate the data link communication.
Push-back must be requested on the frequency stated in the appropriate CLD message, and it may only be approved via voice on that frequency.

1.2 REVERT TO VOICE PROCEDURES

Upon receiving a message of the type “REVERT TO VOICE PROCEDURES”, or in the event of any inconsistency in the clearance received, the pilot will contact the controller by voice and request a new clearance.

1.3 EXCHANGE OF DATA WITH NMOC – ADVANCED ATC TWR

The Fuerteventura airport exchanges information for departure flights by applying the Advanced ATC TWR procedures.

Message exchanges from the local system to the ATM network uses the European standard for A-CDM airports, using the following message types:

A-DPI for all instrumental departure flights.
C-DPI when required.

When start-up is approved and the aircraft starts to exit the stand, the target take-off time (TTOT) is calculated and transmitted to NMOC (Network Manager Operations Center) via an A-DPI message. The use of the actual off-block time (AOBT) instead of the EOBT of the flight plan, along with the variable taxiing time, increases the precision of the take-off time.

After reception of the A-DPI, flight plan data must not be modified via DLA or CHG messages. If regulated, the CTOT assigned before receiving the A-DPI shall be maintained.

If an aircraft has to abort taxiing for technical reasons, the airport shall send a C-DPI message to the NMOC. The result of the C-DPI is that the flight plan shall be suspended by informing the operator via an FLS message with the comment “Suspended by Departure airport”. The flight plan can be activated again by updating the EOBT with a DLA or CHG message.

2. PUSH-BACK MANOEUVRING AND TAXIING

In all stands with autonomous exit, the exit manoeuvre shall be carried out at the minimum power required to initiate taxiing.

Autonomous exit from PRKG 52 to TWY A4 crossing PRKG 51 is authorised following the markings provided, after verification that the zone is clear of obstacles.

3. POWERBACK OPERATIONS

Powerback operations require prior authorization from Aerodrome Management and shall be executed under the sole responsibility of the aircraft operator.

This type of operation is only allowed for:

Turboprop aircraft smaller than or equal to the dimensions of the AT72: the request and authorization shall be managed in real time.
Turboprop aircraft larger than AT72 dimensions; the company agent must request this operation in advance from the E-mail: Seguridad_Operacional_FUE@aena.es .

The airport shall analyze the safety of the operation and the noise pollution caused by it.

4. HELICOPTER TAXIING

There are no air transit routes defined.
Helicopters are only authorized to taxi using TWY E1 to E10, T1 to T8, L1, A1, L5 and B3, although TWY B3 is exclusively for air taxiing by Guardia Civil helicopter operations.
The helicopters are not authorized to overfly airport buildings.
ATC may establish further restrictions on helicopter taxiing based on local procedures.

RESTRICTIONS ON STANDS

1. GENERAL

The use of 400 Hz facilities is mandatory at every stand where this service is available.
The use of the air-conditioning facilities for aircraft is mandatory, whenever this service may be required, at every stand where this service is available.
The use of the aircraft Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) is forbidden in all stands where the 400Hz / air-conditioning service is available, from 2 minutes after on-blocks to 5 minutes before off-blocks.
The use of APU is only authorized when the 400 Hz facilities and the mobile power units are out of service, or when the air-conditioning service is required and the air-conditioning equipment is not available.
Aircraft operating in autonomous stands should do so at the minimum power required.
When an aircraft arrives with a broken APU, it is prohibited for it to keep the port engine switched on in apron during the stopover. Sole exception: B737 models may maintain this switched on (but switching off the starboard engine), and only while the ground energy supply services for the aircraft are disconnected. Prior communication to CEOPS (TEL: +34-928 860 518) at least one hour in advance is required from all aircraft operating at the airport whose APU is broken.
Nosing to East is allowed to AT72 aircraft or below in PRKG 33B, 34B, 35B and 36B, according to local procedures.

2. GENERAL AVIATION

Access to all the PRKG for general aviation, 54 to 60 should be carried out with the minimum taxiing speed possible.

3. HELICOPTERS

3.1 Taxiing to/from the PRKG for helicopters (H1 to H8) may be accomplished by ground or by air, except for the alignment and exit turning manoeuvres in the stand, which shall be accomplished mandatorily by air. Simultaneous independent helicopter operations are only permitted on ramp R1-B, to/from non-contiguous stands with the contiguous ones free.

Take-off/landing from/in these PRKG H1 to H8 are totally forbidden.

CODE LETTER F AIRCRAFT OPERATION

The only code letter F aircraft that the airport accepts is 747-800. Code letter F aircraft arrival and stay at Fuerteventura airport requires prior airport authorization. Code letter F aircraft shall operate only occasionally in Fuerteventura airport and their operations cannot be scheduled on a regular basis.
Aircraft shall not taxi by TWY T1 to T8 whenever a code letter F aircraft is landing or taking off.
Whenever possible, code letter F aircraft take-off shall be performed with reduced power.
No aircraft may be parked in the second row (PRKG 31 to 47 and H1 to H4, H7 and H8), nor may landing or departure operations be authorized, while a code letter F aircraft is taxiing.
Code letter F aircraft shall taxi only by TWY T1 to T8, E1 and E10. If the runway configuration changes during the stopover, the aircraft may also be authorized to taxi via TWY E4 and E7. In all cases, airport workers will be required to perform procedural tasks in advance.
Code letter F aircraft shall taxi following the centre line markings with their forward landing gear, whenever the accomplishment of an oversteer manoeuvre is not necessary, and shall taxi by taxiways at low speed, with their outer engines idling and taking special care while thrusting asymmetrically.
A code letter F aircraft can only be parked on TWY T4, never on the apron. While parked there, aircraft become a fixed obstacle for other aircraft operations on RWY.
Take-off operations for code letter F aircraft in low visibility conditions (LVC) are not allowed.
The pilot of an aircraft shall not use the information provided by the PAPI, to avoid false indications during landing.
Any movement of a code letter F aircraft via the taxiways (from vacating the runway after landing until it enters the same for take-off again), shall require the guidance of a “FOLLOW ME” vehicle.
All code letter F aircraft should perform unmarked oversteer manoeuvres when using any TWY E, both for exiting and leaving the same, given that the widths of the taxiways are appropriate for code letter E aircraft.

NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

Overflying urban centres should be avoided as far as possible.

Sensitive areas to noise:

GENERAL

The following restrictions shall be only applicable to jets.
Except for safety reasons, all those aircraft must follow the noise abatement procedures indicates hereunder:

NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

TAKE-OFF

Aircraft taking off from RWY 01 must follow the nominal flight path of the SID in use, not turning left before overflying point ADOVO.
Aircraft taking off from RWY 19 must follow the nominal flight path of the SID in use, not turning right before 5.0 DME FTV.

LANDING

Visual approach procedures and/or in contact with RWY 01 shall intercept the final approach segment at more than 5.0 DME FTV.
Landing and approach procedures in visual meteorological conditions shall be performed with an angle equal to or higher than the ILS GP or PAPI of each runway.

1000 m ≥ ; VIS ≥ 800 m .
Warning to all involved services and users for preparation.

PHASE II: HALTING OF OPERATIONS

To be initiated when: RVR < 550 m or VIS < 800 m .
TWR will not clear operations while these conditions remain, except special operations considered in the procedure.
If visibility values recover to those of Phase I, said Phase I will be initiated.

PHASE III: PPOAM 550 CANCELLATION

To be initiated when: RVR > 800 m.
VIS > 1000 m.
All associated procedures are cancelled.

Meteorological minimums defined for the procedure

PHASES	RVR (m)	VIS (m)
PHASE I: WARNING	800 ≥ RVR ≥ 550	1000 ≥ VIS ≥ 800
PHASE II: HALTING OF OPERATIONS	RVR < 550	VIS < 800
PHASE III: PPOAM 550 CANCELLATION	RVR > 800	VIS > 1000

SHORT COMMUNICATION PROCEDURE

ARRIVALS

In transfers of communications from the Sector NORTH-EAST of Canarias (FREQ 129.1) to Approach Canarias (FREQ 129.3), the initial call shall be limited to the flight CALL SIGN to avoid congestion on the frequency:

“Approach + Aeroflot 321”

DEPARTURES

To avoid congestion on the frequency in transfers of communications of traffic taking off from GCFV TWR to Approach Canarias (FREQ 129.3), the initial call shall be the name of the unit being called and the call sign of the calling aircraft:

“Canarias, Aeroflot 321, from GCFV”

RADAR DISPLAY SYSTEM

Above 200 ft AMSL, ATS surveillance systems may be used in supplying the aerodrome control service, for the following purposes:

Supervision of the flight path of aircraft on final approach;
Supervision of the flight path of other aircraft in the vicinity of the aerodrome, except for transits operating to the West of the airfield, to which it will be provided above 1000 ft;
Giving navigation assistance to VFR flights except for transits operating to the West of the airfield, to which it will be provided above 1000 ft;
Establishment of radar separation between successive departing aircraft above 400 ft AMSL.

Depending on the availability of the radars which provide coverage to the ATZ, the areas or heights for which the indicated uses of the radar are supplied may vary.

The aerodrome controllers shall maintain all the operations taking place at or in the vicinity of the aerodrome under constant visual surveillance, with access to an ATS surveillance system to support that visual observation, as stipulated in article 4.5.1.3. of the Reglamento de la Circulación Aérea. All of the foregoing shall depend on the limitations of the equipment.

AD TRAFFIC CIRCUIT

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

AREAS NOT VISIBLE FROM TOWER

The fire fighting service building prevents vision from the new Control Tower of certain parts of the manoeuvres area. See AD 2-GCFV ADC / GMC.

Vision from the Control Tower is aided by television cameras.

From time to time, ATC may request aircraft to notify when crossing the runway-holding position located in T2 segment of the parallel taxiway.

BIRD CONCENTRATION AREAS

Area 1: Flow of crossing birds, generally seagulls from south-east to north-east, tending to deviate to the North and to Area 2.
Area 2: Island rubbish tip and new road works, high concentration of birds perching and in flight.
Area 3: Gullies delimiting the North and South of the airport.
- To the north: Concentrations of pigeons, herons, egrets, seagulls, Egyptian vultures, kestrels, ravens and buzzards.
- To the south: Gully which forms small marshes at its mouth, with concentrations of herons, egrets, seagulls and plover.
Area 4: Sewage plant and recycling centre of the airport. Concentration of woodcock, herons, pigeons and turtle doves. Ducks occasionally.
>Area 5: Urban centres with dovecots on flat roofs, concentration of flocks of pigeons in flight.
Area 6: Coastal areas with concentration of perching seagulls in the middle of the day in winter and at any time in summer.
Area 7: Wooded plant barriers, large concentration of turtledoves, pigeons and small birds.
Area 8: Farm. Concentration of birds perched and in flight.
Area 9: Golf courses south of the airport, concentration of seagulls and other birds.
Area 10: Occasional caravanning area, seagull concentration.
Area 11: Firefighters' drill area with pools that give rise to small flocks of sandgrouse, seagulls and pigeons.

WIND PHENOMENA

The orographical conditions of the airport setting and its location tend to lead to the appearance of wind shear and turbulence phenomena below 3000 ft under the following meteorological circumstances, so that, if any of them holds, an unstable approach, or even the need to miss, might be expected:

In general, moderate or gusting winds.
Winds in the first quadrant with thermal inversion.
Winds in the fourth quadrant with speed equal to or greater than 10 kt.
Light surface winds in the first or fourth quadrants, but with south component at 2000 ft.
In the TAFOR, a forecast change in wind direction (TEMPO or BECMG) of greater than 120º with respect to the surface wind.
Difference greater than 50º in the wind direction between the two thresholds and/or significant difference of the speeds between the two thresholds.

In addition, the following circumstances might also tend to lead to missed approaches:

Effect of wind funnelling due to the presence of gullies close to both runway thresholds, especially in approaches to RWY 19.
Impression of flying very high in approaches to RWY 19, due to the steep angle of descent required.
Optical effect caused by the presence of runway margins twice as wide as usual, due to their characteristics.
Effect caused by the relative proximity between the two thresholds (1940 m) of one much longer runway (3406 m), both at a lower altitude than the central zone.
