Air Traffic Control at IFR: , routes and procedures

Enabling aviation together Since 7 November 2019, if you fly to, from and near Lelystad Airport, air traffic controllers of the Royal Air Force Command (CLSK) and the Netherlands (LVNL) provide air traffic control. The transition phase of Lelystad Airport as a controlled airport has started. This is noticeable to everyone flying to or from Lelystad, or passing Lelystad.

The introduction of air traffic control by CLSK and LVNL, jointly responsible for the safe handling of IFR and VFR traffic, is a necessary part of the airport’s preparations for the arrival of commercial traffic.

In this brochure, you can read more about the IFR routes, procedures and changes in the airspace. Please note that the IFR routes are not available for commercial traffic until a political decision has been made to open up the airport to commercial traffic.

The information in this brochure was compiled with care. However, no rights can be derived from it. When preparing your flight, always consult the AIS publications of Air Traffic Control the Netherlands as well as the airport’s information. PROCEDURES

Flight preparations

Opening hours

• Lelystad Airport: 0700 - 2200 LT • Lelystad Approach: 1800 – 2200 LT

On-board equipment Navigation specifications RNAV1 and RNP APCH are mandatory

The following navigation specifications are required for Lelystad Airport: • RNAV1 for flying SIDs and initial/intermediate approach segments • RNP APCH for flying RNP final approach

Scheduling your flight Plan your flight in LARSA (Lelystad Airport Scheduling App)

• To be able to fly to and from Lelystad Airport, you are requested to plan your flight in the LARSA planning system. Please consult LARSA and plan your flight: larsa.lelystadairport.nl • The reserved take-off or landing time in LARSA should correspond to the expected take-off or landing time.

ATS flight plan

• Mandatory for each flight • Submit your flight plan at least 3 hours before the start of an IFR flight

When departing from and landing at Lelystad Airport, please follow the IFR departure and approach routes.

WTC LIGHT

Partly due to the performance characteristics of light aircraft, WTC LIGHT flights are not always obliged to fly the designated departure and approach routes:

• Outbound WTC LIGHT flight: – with RFL above FL 055: follow the SID – with RFL under FL 055: the first DCT waypoint in the flight plan shall be: ERMUR, ARBEP or NYKER • Inbound WTC LIGHT flight: – with RFL above FL 055: follow a T-route and approach route – with RFL under FL 055: the last waypoint in the flight plan shall be: NYKER, EKNON or BADEX

Z- and Y-flight plans

Between 0700 and 1800 LT, when Lelystad Approach is not operational, only VFR, Z- and Y-flight plans are accepted.

To ensure smooth ATC handling of flights having a Y-/Z-flight plan with an RFL above FL 055, please adhere to the guidelines below. The basic principle is that the published routes are flown as much as possible as if they were full IFR flights.

Flights with a Z-flight plan: • As first IFR waypoint, file GRONY, ARNEM, NAPRO, KUDAD, IDRID or AMGOD • Load the SID assigned by Lelystad TWR into the FMS • Follow the SID’s lateral path and follow the air traffic controller’s altitude instruction • After departure: open IFR at Dutch MIL as soon as possible before entering Lelystad TMA 3 • Expect a clearance from Dutch MIL to a point on the SID (ARBEP or ERMUR) to follow or continue the SID from that point on

Flights with a Y-flight plan: • File a T-route with BADEX or EKNON as final IFR waypoint • Open VFR at Dutch MIL at the latest before entering Lelystad TMA 3

Flights with a Y/Z-flight plan with RFL under FL 055 follow the VFR routes. 1. Outbound

NOT FOR OPERATIONAL USE • New SIDs runway 05 and 23 • SIDs contain a ‘stepped climb’ up to FL 060 • The routes are designed to remain clear of Schiphol traffic and military activities as much as possible. ATC provides clearance for climbing as soon as traffic conditions permit.

2.1 Routes

NOT FOR OPERATIONAL USE

• There are two IAFs: BADEX and EKNON - Traffic from the northeast, west and northwest approaches via EKNON - Traffic from the south and southeast approaches via BADEX • There are no STARs to the IAFs. • There are new ATS routes allowing connection to the IAFs: T602, T603, T604, T606 and T607 • The T-routes are published in an AREA map: see AIP AD 2. EHLE-AREA

Sector sequence

T602, T603, T604, T606, T607 Amsterdam Radar > Dutch MIL > Lelystad Approach > Lelystad Tower

EHRD Via NEPTU and T604: Rotterdam Approach > Dutch MIL > Lelystad Approach > Lelystad Tower

EHEH / EHBD / EHBK Via TENLI and T604: Eindhoven Arrival / Beek Approach > Dutch MIL > Lelystad Approach > Lelystad Tower

EHGG Via ROLDU and T602: Eelde Approach > Dutch MIL > Lelystad Approach > Lelystad Tower 2.2 Approaches

BADEX and EKNON are overflown at FL 060, except for traffic on T603 to BADEX, which has to fly at or below FL 060 at NILMI at the latest.

Runway 05

NOT FOR OPERATIONAL USE • For runway 05, ILS and RNP approaches are available • Approaches consist of: - a fixed lateral trajectory with level restrictions from IAF to FAF/FAP - an ILS or RNP final approach • Lelystad Approach clears the flight for an RNP approach; an ILS approach is possible on pilot’s request Runway 23

NOT FOR OPERATIONAL USE • For runway 23, RNP approaches are available • An approach consists of: - a fixed lateral trajectory with level restrictions from IAF to FAF - an RNP final approach • A final approach below 3000 ft AMSL is not possible

3. Other matters requiring attention

1. Missed approach • The missed approach follows a uniform trajectory with level restrictions to a suitable point in order to intercept the approach again

2. Circling, opposite & visual approach • Circling approaches are not allowed • Visual approach between 1800 and 2200 LT is only allowed on the final approach track • ATC does not allow opposite approaches

3. RAD-restriction • The IFR routes are not available for commercial traffic until a political decision is made to open up the airport to commercial traffic • Commercial traffic refers to large (commercial) air traffic with narrow-body aircraft types such as the Boeing 737 and Airbus 320, including maintenance flights for such aircraft AIRSPACE
