VFR flights may be either cancelled or changed to IFR flights. VFR flights can be prohibited to enter the controlled airspace if meteorological conditions are worse than 5000m visibility and 450m cloud base and there are other traffic operating either IMC or VMC (low ceiling or overcast conditions)

So, if there is a possibility that flight under VMC may become impracticable, an IFR flight shall be provided with alternative instructions to be complied with in the event that flight in VMC cannot be maintained for the term of the clearance.

If a pilot has the intention to change the flight rules, he has to inform the controller about his decision and the controller shall change flight plan (if available or necessary) and inform the other ATC units en-route about the changes.

b) What is radiotelephony phraseology?

Radiotelephony English is the language used in radiotelephony communications. It includes but must not be limited to ICAO phraseology and can require the use of "general" English at times “Plain language” refers most often to what we are calling here radiotelephony English but also may require "general" English.

ICAO phraseology. The standardized words and phrases approved for radiotelephony communications by ICAO have been developed over years and represent a very narrow, specialized and rigid subset of language.

27. a) Procedure of controller’s actions in case there are obstructions on the RW.

- If an aircraft approaches the aerodrome and there are some obstructions on the RW, the controller informs a pilot to make a “Go around” procedure and gives a reason (e.g. RW is blocked, water patches on the RW, etc), e.g.

KLM 127. Go around. RW blocked. Climb to altitude 2000ft.

Contact approach 118.7

- If a pilot departs and after receiving a take-off clearance some obstructions have appeared on the RW, the controller gives instructions to hold position or to cancel take-off.

If an aircraft has started taxiing and there are some obstructions on the RW, the controller gives an instruction to an aircraft to stop immediately (saying twice) and informs a supervisor about it.

If the speed of an aircraft is too high while taxiing and it starts stopping, it can use emergency braking. In this case a pilot can start a departure procedure again or return to stand for aircraft inspection.

In the event the aerodrome controller observes, after a take-off or landing clearance has been issued, any obstruction on the runway, such as runway incursion by an aircraft or vehicle, or animals or flocks of birds on the runway, appropriate action shall be taken:

1. in all cases inform the aircraft concerned of the obstruction and its location on the runway;

2. cancel the take-off clearance for an aircraft which has not started to roll;

3. instruct a landing aircraft to go around,

b) Why is it important to have sophisticated equipment at the working place?

There should be mentioned:

- more precise and detailed data concerning traffic,

- increased controller efficiency,

- reduced voice radio channel congestion, and

- fewer controller/pilot communication errors,

- datalinks present controllers and pilots with a new, faster means of sharing pertinent information,

- increased airport and airway capacity,

- increased efficiency in using airspace.

28. a) Procedure of controller’s actions when directing aircraft to the alternate aerodrome.

If the aerodrome cannot receive the aircraft due:

- blocked runway,

- bad runway conditions (water – 10mm or more, slash – 12mm or more, snow – over 50mm, braking coefficient – less than 0,3, braking action poor),

- weather below minima,

- low RVR or cloud base,

- landing system failure

and the flight crew has made decision to fly to the alternative aerodrome, the controller shall inform the supervisor about diverting the aircraft to an alternative.

The aircraft is cleared to proceed to the alternative if the length and the operational conditions on the alternative aerodrome are applicable for the aircraft and it handles international flights (for the aircraft carrying out an international flight).

If airspace conditions allow to follow direct to the alternative aerodrome, the aircraft shall be cleared to fly to new destination via the shortest route. If airspace conditions do not allow to follow direct to the alternative the aircraft shall be cleared to fly to a new destination and the controller shall instruct the pilot to fly via the cleared route.

Directing the aircraft to the alternative aerodrome the controller shall:

1. specify the operational conditions, actual and forecast weather conditions at the alternative aerodrome and advise this information to the pilot before the aircraft leaves the zone of responsibility,

2. inform the anti-aircraft defense forces unit about the flight directed to the aerodrome of changed destination,

3. inform the adjacent ATC unit about diverting the aircraft to the alternative aerodrome (if the aerodrome is located within its FIR) or inform the aerodrome ATC unit about diverting the aircraft to the alternative aerodrome,

4. make relevant changes to the flight plan,

5. transfer the control under the aircraft to the adjacent ATC unit,

6. obtain the information concerning the aircraft landing on the alternative aerodrome.

b) TCAS. What is it ?

A traffic collision avoidance system or traffic alert and collision avoidance system (both abbreviated as TCAS) is an aircraft collision avoidance system designed to reduce the incidence of mid-air collisions between aircraft. It monitors the airspace around an aircraft for other aircraft equipped with a corresponding active transponder, independent of air traffic control, and warns pilots of the presence of other transponder-equipped aircraft which may present a threat of mid-air collision (MAC). It is a type of airborne collision avoidance system mandated by the International Civil Aviation Organization to be fitted to all aircraft with a maximum take-off mass (MTOM) of over 5700 kg (12,586 lbs) or authorized to carry more than 19 passengers.

Official definition from PANS-ATM (Nov 2007): ACAS / TCAS is an aircraft system based on secondary surveillance radar (SSR) transponder signals which operates independently of ground-based equipment to provide advice to the pilot on potential conflicting aircraft that are equipped with SSR transponders.

In modern glass cockpit aircraft, the TCAS display may be integrated in the Navigation Display (ND); in older glass cockpit aircraft and those with mechanical instrumentation, such an integrated TCAS display may replace the mechanical Vertical Speed Indicator (which indicates the rate with which the aircraft is descending or climbing).

 

29. a) Peculiarities of aerodrome traffic service under VMC conditions.

VMC conditions: visibility – 5000m and more, cloud base – 450m and more.

1) IFR and VFR flights can be performed at the same time (if weather conditions are lower, so IFR and VFR flights can be performed but on opposites sides of the CTR).

2) The controller has to inform all aircraft flying VFR about traffic (IFR and VFR flights). A pilot will be able to maintain own separation, e.g.

KLM 127. Traffic 1 o’clock, 50 km, opposite direction, FL 240, TU – 134.

3) The controller informs about the highest altitude which is available, e.g.

KLM 127. Enter controlled area not above 3 000ft.

4) An aerodrome traffic circuit is provided for all aircraft flying under VMC conditions.

b) Runway incursion. What is it ?

RUNWAY INCURSION is an incident where an aircraft enters a runway without an air traffic control clearance. It may involve the incorrect presence of a vehicle or a person on the protected area of a surface designated for aircraft landing and take-off.

This may include:

• two aircraft coming head-to head

• an aircraft colliding with another one

• an aircraft colliding with a ground vehicle

• an aircraft entering an active RW

This may cause:

• an aircraft damage to the aircraft, either minor or severe

• forced to go around

• an official investigation of accidents
