  • 1 PE1804/P Petitioner Submission of 30 October 2020 In
    PE1804/P Petitioner submission of 30 October 2020 In communications with HIAL managers the Benbecula Community Council (BCC) and Far North Aviation based at Wick Airport have found out that the HIAL Board have made their decision to downgrade the air traffic service provision at Benbecula and Wick airports without any supporting operational safety assessments or formal operational Safety Cases. Regardless that the Safety Cases have not yet been written, HIAL are now pressing on with implementing their decision, which have flight safety and flight regularity implications. Both Communities (Benbecula & Wick) have stakeholders, retired pilots/air traffic controllers who have the technical understanding to either comment on or review these Safety Cases when they written. Will HIAL permit any stakeholder involvement, the BCC suspect not. One of HIALs Managers has recently advised a stakeholder at Wick ‘the Flight Information Service unit would still allow most normal operations to take place'. This is a very glib statement for HIAL to make, considering that the operational Safety Cases have not been written. Using HIAL Islay airport as an example where Flight Information Service is the level of air traffic service provided, the following information is officially published under type of traffic permitted at the airport. (Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) /Visual Flight Rules (VFR)) The Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP) states VFR. Additionally, under Flight Procedures in the same document there is a warning: - Use of RNP (effectively IFR) procedures at this Aerodrome restricted to Highlands and Islands Airports Ltd - Approved Operators only. This raises the question how do IFR customers gain access to Benbecula and Wick if the airports are downgraded to the likes of Islay, and what is the HIAL the criteria required to become an HIAL 'Approved Operator'.
