K-1 RVSM/TF/32 i History of the Meeting 1.1 Introduction 1.1.1 The Thirty-second Meeting of the ICAO Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum Implementation Task Force (RVSM/TF/32) was hosted by the Air Traffic Management Bureau (ATMB) of the General Administration of Civil Aviation of China (CAAC) at the King Wing Hotel in Beijing, China from 18 to 21 September 2007. 1.2 Attendance 1.2.1 RVSM/TF/32 was attended by 70 participants from China, Hong Kong China, DPR Korea, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation, Singapore, Thailand, United States, Viet Nam, IATA, IFALPA and IFATCA. A complete list of participants is at Appendix A to the Report. 1.3 Officers and Secretariat 1.3.1 Mr. Kuah Kong Beng, Chief Air Traffic Control Officer, Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) served as Chairperson of the Task Force. Mr. Kyotaro Harano, Regional Officer ATM, ICAO Asia and Pacific Office served as the Secretary for the meeting, who was assisted by Mr. Rod Graff, Deputy Regional Director, ICAO Asia and Pacific Office. 1.3.2 Mr. Kuah Kong Beng also chaired the ATC/WG. Mr. Paisit Herabat, Engineering Manager, Aeronautical Radio of Thailand Ltd (AEROTHAI) was elected as the Chairman of the SAM/WG as Mr. Napadol Sangngurn will be retiring at the end of September 2007. 1.4 Opening of the RVSM/TF/32 1.4.1 Mr. Harano welcomed the participants to the meeting. He emphasized that RVSM had a significant impact on reducing departure and enroute delays, improving operational efficiency, increasing airspace capacity by enabling aircraft to operate closer to their optimum flight levels and reducing fuel consumption. The implementation of RVSM in metric system in China would bring most possible way to cope with the significant traffic growth expected in China. He took the opportunity to thank China for their warm and generous support in hosting this significant meeting. 1.4.2 Mr. Harano expressed that this meeting was most important because the meeting should review the overall implementation process and ensure that key activities were completed to facilitate the introduction of RVSM on 22 November 2007. Therefore, it was necessary to finalize the operational procedures which should include the flight level allocations and corresponding assignment of cruising levels. In addition, the meeting would have to review the readiness of ATS providers and operators, publication of relevant documents, and the safety assessments to demonstrate that RVSM would be implemented in a safe manner. He urged all concerned to cooperate and work closely so that the critical elements of RVSM could be addressed to allow the implementation of RVSM in Chinese flight information regions (FIRs) in time on 22 November 2007. 1.4.3 Mr. Kuah Kong Beng welcomed the participants and opened the meeting. He said that the Task Force last met July – August 2007 and was now at the last hurdle for RVSM implementation in China airspace. This meeting would determine the RVSM implementation status. He added that RVSM implementation in China airspace was an important milestone for the Asia/Pacific Region as it would mean most of the region will be RVSM airspace. The Task Force had ii RVSM/TF/32 History of the Meeting worked hard to come to this final stage and he hoped that the Task Force could achieve what the Task Force has set out to accomplish, i.e. to assist in the RVSM implementation in China airspace. 1.4.4 Mr. Rod Graff, Deputy Regional Director, ICAO Asia and Pacific Office, on behalf of Mr. L.B. Shah, Regional Director thanked ATMB for their warm and generous support in hosting this significant meeting, and welcomed all the delegates to the meeting. He noted that at the APANPIRG/18 (Bangkok, September 2007) China advised that they had been addressing the issues necessary to support implementation of RVSM in China’s airspace, including coordinating with international organizations, neighboring States, and all stakeholders. This activity had produced noteworthy results and only a few matters remain to be addressed. He assured the meeting of the full support of the ICAO Asia and Pacific Office in their deliberations and wished the meeting every success. 1.4.5 Mr. Su Langen, Director General, ATMB welcomed all the participants on behalf of Mr. Yang Yuanyuan, Minister of CAAC. He also expressed his thanks to ICAO, IATA, IFALPA and all participants from the United States, the Russia Federation and other States for their long-term constant support to Chinese civil aviation development. 1.4.6 Mr. Su reported that all the preparations were greatly assisted, supported and concerted by States and international organizations who had been participating in the meetings. So, he extended his sincere thanks to all officials, experts and friends who had assisted China to implement RVSM, meanwhile, looked forward to much closer cooperation with them in the future. 1.4.7 He welcomed each official, expert and friend to raise valuable suggestions to their preparations. And, he also hoped each guest may leave happy memories to the beautiful Beijing Autumn. Meanwhile, he wished the meeting complete success. 1.5 Documentation and Working Language 1.5.1 The working language of the meeting as well as all documentation was in English. Translation services between English and Russia were undertaken by Kyrgyzstan and the Russian Federation for their delegations. 1.5.2 Eleven (11) Working Papers, six (6) Information Papers and three (3) Flimsies were presented to the meeting. A list of papers is included at Appendix B. RVSM/TF/32 1 Report of the Meeting Agenda Item 1: Adoption of Agenda 1.1 The meeting reviewed the provisional agenda for the RVSM/TF/32 proposed by the Chairperson of the Task Force.

  • TCAS II) by Personnel Involved in the Implementation and Operation of TCAS II
    Preface This booklet provides the background for a better understanding of the Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS II) by personnel involved in the implementation and operation of TCAS II. This booklet is an update of the TCAS II Version 7.0 manual published in 2000 by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). It describes changes to the CAS logic introduced by Version 7.1 and updates the information on requirements for use of TCAS II and operational experience. Version 7.1 logic changes will improve TCAS Resolution Advisory (RA) sense reversal logic in vertical chase situations. In addition all “Adjust Vertical Speed, Adjust” RAs are converted to “Level-Off, Level-Off” RAs to make it more clear that a reduction in vertical rate is required. The Minimum Operational Performance Standards (MOPS) for TCAS II Version 7.1 were approved in June 2008 and Version 7.1 units are expected to be operating by 2010-2011. Version 6.04a and 7.0 units are also expected to continue operating for the foreseeable future where authorized. 2 Preface................................................................................................................................. 2 The TCAS Solution............................................................................................................. 5 Early Collision Avoidance Systems................................................................................ 5 TCAS II Development .................................................................................................... 6 Initial

  • Chapter: 2. En Route Operations
    Chapter 2 En Route Operations Introduction The en route phase of flight is defined as that segment of flight from the termination point of a departure procedure to the origination point of an arrival procedure. The procedures employed in the en route phase of flight are governed by a set of specific flight standards established by 14 CFR [Figure 2-1], FAA Order 8260.3, and related publications. These standards establish courses to be flown, obstacle clearance criteria, minimum altitudes, navigation performance, and communications requirements. 2-1 fly along the centerline when on a Federal airway or, on routes other than Federal airways, along the direct course between NAVAIDs or fixes defining the route. The regulation allows maneuvering to pass well clear of other air traffic or, if in visual meteorogical conditions (VMC), to clear the flightpath both before and during climb or descent. Airways Airway routing occurs along pre-defined pathways called airways. [Figure 2-2] Airways can be thought of as three- dimensional highways for aircraft. In most land areas of the world, aircraft are required to fly airways between the departure and destination airports. The rules governing airway routing, Standard Instrument Departures (SID) and Standard Terminal Arrival (STAR), are published flight procedures that cover altitude, airspeed, and requirements for entering and leaving the airway. Most airways are eight nautical miles (14 kilometers) wide, and the airway Figure 2-1. Code of Federal Regulations, Title 14 Aeronautics and Space. flight levels keep aircraft separated by at least 500 vertical En Route Navigation feet from aircraft on the flight level above and below when operating under VFR.

  • FAA-H-8083-15, Instrument Flying Handbook -- 1 of 2
    i ii Preface This Instrument Flying Handbook is designed for use by instrument flight instructors and pilots preparing for instrument rating tests. Instructors may find this handbook a valuable training aid as it includes basic reference material for knowledge testing and instrument flight training. Other Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) publications should be consulted for more detailed information on related topics. This handbook conforms to pilot training and certification concepts established by the FAA. There are different ways of teaching, as well as performing, flight procedures and maneuvers and many variations in the explanations of aerodynamic theories and principles. This handbook adopts selected methods and concepts for instrument flying. The discussion and explanations reflect the most commonly used practices and principles. Occasionally the word “must” or similar language is used where the desired action is deemed critical. The use of such language is not intended to add to, interpret, or relieve a duty imposed by Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR). All of the aeronautical knowledge and skills required to operate in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) are detailed. Chapters are dedicated to human and aerodynamic factors affecting instrument flight, the flight instruments, attitude instrument flying for airplanes, basic flight maneuvers used in IMC, attitude instrument flying for helicopters, navigation systems, the National Airspace System (NAS), the air traffic control (ATC) system, instrument flight rules (IFR) flight procedures, and IFR emergencies. Clearance shorthand and an integrated instrument lesson guide are also included. This handbook supersedes Advisory Circular (AC) 61-27C, Instrument Flying Handbook, which was revised in 1980.

The changeover is a land- mark not only since it is geographically the largest RVSM changeover but also FL410 because it will see vertical positioning referenced as a Flight Level throughout FL400 the affected airspace (above transition altitude) rather than in metres. The excep- tion to this is in the Ulaanbataar FIR, (see 12ATSBL07 click here) which will FL390 continue to use metric references. The information contained in this briefing leaf- FL380 let is derived from information contained in AICs issued by the Russian Federal FL370 Air Transport Agency as well as data from the Kazakh Air Navigation Service FL360 Provider (ANSP) however the procedures described in the Russian AIC will be FL350 also applied in Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan FL340 and Uzbekistan.

  • Key Tips - Altimetry
    Avoiding airspace infringements Key tips - Altimetry A significant number of airspace infringements are caused by pilots using an incorrect altimeter setting. The pilot may believe that they are remaining outside notified airspace, but they are actually flying higher or lower. QFE (the atmospheric pressure at aerodrome elevation) When QFE is set, your altimeter will indicate your height above the elevation of the aerodrome. This is useful in the visual circuit environment and in the ATZ. QFE should not be used elsewhere. QNH (the atmospheric pressure at mean sea level) When QNH is set your altimeter will indicate your altitude above mean sea level. When the Airfield QNH is set, the altimeter will indicate the elevation of the airfield correctly at the airfield reference point. QNH is essential for avoiding airspace which has a base defined as an altitude, and any Prohibited, Restricted or Danger Areas that have an upper limit defined as an altitude. When flying, remember to check (and update if necessary) the QNH value that you have set. This can easily be done by calling an ATSU or listening to ATIS or VOLMET broadcasts. airspacesafety.com Illustrations courtesy of NATS. Regional Pressure Setting (RPS) RPS is a forecast (not an actual) value of the lowest atmospheric pressure at mean sea level (MSL) within an Altimeter Setting Region (ASR). • When an RPS is set your altimeter will indicate your altitude above the forecast setting. • Aircraft using this setting will never be lower than the indicated altitude. RPS were introduced in the past to aid terrain clearance in large areas where there was no local QNH reporting station, or where communications were poor.
