January 2, 2020 Notices to Airmen
U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration NOTICES TO AIRMEN Domestic/International January 2, 2020 Next Issue January 30, 2020 Notices to Airmen included in this publication are NOT given during pilot briefings unless specifically requested by the pilot. An electronic version of this publication is on the internet at http://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/notices Air Traffic Products and Publications Team NOTICES TO AIRMEN - January 2, 2020 Part 2. INTERNATIONAL NOTICES TO AIRMEN Notices to Airmen International GENERAL This part features significant international notices to airmen (NOTAM) information and special notices. The information contained in the International Notices to Airmen section is derived from international notices and other official sources. International notices are of two types: Class One International Notices are those NOTAMs issued via telecommunications. They are made available to the U.S. flying public by the International NOTAM Office (Washington, DC) through the local Flight Service Station (FSS). Class Two International Notices are NOTAMs issued via postal services and are not readily available to the U.S. flying public. The International Notices to Airmen draws from both these sources and also includes information about temporary hazardous conditions which are not otherwise readily available to the flyer. Before any international flight, always update the International Notices to Airmen with a review of Class One International Notices available at your closest FSS. Foreign notices carried in this publication are carried as issued to the maximum extent possible. Most abbreviations used in this publication are listed in ICAO Document DOC 8400. Wherever possible, the source of the information is included at the end of an entry. -
Dual-Hub Connectivity: a Case Study on China Eastern Airlines in Shanghai Huijuan Yang* and Weiwei Liu
Yang and Liu European Transport Research Review (2019) 11:25 European Transport https://doi.org/10.1186/s12544-019-0364-6 Research Review ORIGINAL PAPER Open Access Dual-hub connectivity: a case study on China Eastern Airlines in Shanghai Huijuan Yang* and Weiwei Liu Abstract To deal with slot constraints and insufficient capacity, emerging multi-airport systems have been under construction in China. This paper chose China Eastern Airlines as a case study, evaluating its hub connectivity under a dual-hub circumstance in Shanghai. The paper detected that the biggest constraint of China Eastern Airlines’ dual-hub situation lied in Shanghai’s location and the restricted transfer options on international routes. Contributions from alliance partners were assessed and benchmarked with China Eastern Airlines. With China Southern Airlines quit SkyTeam alliance, China Eastern Airlines faced more challenges on the domestic market. The empirical study also pointed out the shortcoming of operating at two hubs in the same catchment area, where the quality of connectivity of inter-hub connections cannot be maintained as high as a single-hub transfer. However, the market potential of inter-hub connections in Shanghai was identified with a considerable amount of viable connections. Keywords: Hub connectivity, Dual-hub operation, China Eastern Airlines 1 Introduction Multi-airport system largely expands the catchment area Airports have experienced pressures on operational cap- and capacity in the region. It provides better accessibility acity and congestion due to the worldwide effects of explo- for passengers, and attracts and generates more traffic for sive passenger growth, particularly in high-growth regions airlines and airports. -
AC 150/5200-28F, Notices to Airmen (Notams) for Airport Operators, 30 December 2016
U.S. Department Advisory of Transportation Federal Aviation Circular Administration Subject: Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs) for Date: 12/30/2016 AC No: 150/5200-28F Airport Operators Initiated By: AAS-300 1 Purpose. This advisory circular (AC) provides guidance on using the NOTAM system for reporting airport facilities changes or outages and for utilizing the Runway Condition Assessment Matrix for airport condition reporting. This AC prescribes procedures used to describe, format, and disseminate information on unanticipated or temporary changes to components of, or hazards in, the National Airspace System (NAS). The Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) system is not intended to be used to advertise data already published or charted. 2 Cancellation. This AC cancels AC 150/5200-28E, Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs) for Airport Operators, dated October 8, 2015. 3 Applicability. The information contained in this AC is intended primarily for airport operators, or their agents, who monitor and manage the day-to-day operation of the airport and who may also have operational responsibility for certain airport-related facilities. The primary audience for this AC is any office responsible for originating NOTAMs. Authorized personnel assigned to facilities that collect, originate, and/or disseminate NOTAMs must be familiar with the provisions of this AC that pertain to their operational responsibilities. The use of this information is one method of compliance for NOTAM disposition for airports certificated under Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 139, Certification of Airports (Part 139), and federally obligated airports. The Federal NOTAM system is the primary means of conveying airport condition information by certificated and federally obligated airports. -
Terminal Area Forecast Summary FY 2016-2045
Preface This publication provides aviation data users with summary historical and forecast statistics on passenger demand and aviation activity at U.S. airports. The summary level forecasts are based on individual airport projections. The Terminal Area Forecast (TAF) includes forecasts for active airports in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS). The Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Forecast and Performance Analysis Division, Office of Aviation Policy and Plans, develops the TAF. As its primary input, the TAF initially used the national forecasts of aviation activity contained in FAA Aerospace Forecasts, Fiscal Years 2016-2036. The final TAF considers the forecasts and assumptions contained in FAA Aerospace Forecasts, Fiscal Years 2017-2037. Beginning March, 2017 the tables for the national forecasts can be found at: http://www.faa.gov/data_research/aviation/aerospace_forecasts/ The TAF is available on the Internet. The TAF model and TAF database can be accessed at: http://www.faa.gov/data_research/aviation/taf The TAF model allows users to create their own forecast scenarios. It contains a query data application that allows the public to access and print historical (1990 to 2015) and forecast (2016 to 2045) aviation activity data by individual airport, state, or FAA region. The FAA welcomes public comment on the forecasts, as well as suggestions for improving the usefulness of the TAF.

Guy Rouelle 976 Vermont Route 14 South Woodbury, VT 05650 (802)456-8797 August 8, 2016 Dear Selectboard, Pursuant to Section 207, Title 5, Vermont Statues, I am formally requesting municipal approval of the installation of a Restricted Landing Area in the field behind my house on Woodbury Lake. The landing area would be used by myself for transportation and to conduct business. Business would be restricted to business meetings at my home. The Statute gives specific instructions on how to certificate a Restricted Landing Area. One of the requirements is to gain approval from the municipality. Once approval has been obtained, the State Transportation Board will conduct a site visit and hold a series of public hearings as well as notify the abutting property owners. Assuming this process moves forward, the FAA would then conduct a feasibility site visit to ensure the site is safe for the pilot and also safe for abutting property owners. Ultimately, this would enable the certification of the site. The helipad would be made available to public safety. That said, if there were an accident on one of the Town lakes or highway, DHart helicopter could utilize the helipad for pickup or drop off. In addition, if another storm were to create a need for emergency response, the helipad would be available. I have been a pilot for 32 years with Private, Commercial, Instrument, Single Engine, Multi-engine, Flight Instructor, Flight Instructor Instrument, helicopter, glider and seaplane ratings. I have also been an FAA Designated Air Traffic Control Examiner as well as an FAA Designated Commercial Pilot Examiner. -
Notams Back to Basics: Pilots
NOTAMs Back to Basics: Pilots Federal Aviation Administration NOTAMs Affect Every User of the NAS ICAO Flight U.S. Service NOTAM Flight Stations Office Inspection Flight Dispatch Air ATO Instrument Wild Fire Traffic Security Approach Fighting Control Procedure Office Service DOD Centers Technical Pilot Operations Technician Airport General Operator Public Information valid through Federal Aviation 2 December 2018 Administration NOTAM A NOTAM is a notice containing information essential to personnel concerned with flight operations but not known far enough in advance to be publicized by other means. NOTAMs concern the establishment, condition, or change of any component (facility, service, procedure, or hazard) in the NAS. They must state the abnormal status of a component of the NAS — not the normal status. In 1947, it was agreed to begin issuing NOTAMs via telecommunications. NOTAMs were modeled after Notice to Mariners, which advised ship captains of hazards in navigating the high seas. Information valid through Federal Aviation 3 December 2020 Administration NOTAM Contractions NOTAMs have a unique language characterized by the use of specialized contractions. Contractions are imperative to the NOTAM structure because they make communication more efficient and allow computer systems to parse important words. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is the leading authority for standardizing contractions in the international aeronautical community. If there is no ICAO contraction, plain language is used. Reference: FAA Order -
