.02.16 Procedures for aerodrome (AD) control service .02.17 Radar services
Aerodrome control towers shall immediately report any failure or irregularity of operation in any equipment, light or other device established at an aerodrome for (…) or required for the provision of air traffic control service.
Aerodrome control towers shall immediately report any failure or irregularity of operation in any equipment, light or other device established at an aerodrome for (the guidance of aerodrome traffic and flight crews) or required for the provision of air traffic control service.
Aircraft which fail to land (…) minutes after the expected landing time, shall be reported to the approach control unit, ACC or flight information centre, or to the rescue coordination centre or rescue sub-centre, in accordance with local instructions.
Aircraft which fail to land (5) minutes after the expected landing time, shall be reported to the approach control unit, ACC or flight information centre, or to the rescue coordination centre or rescue sub-centre, in accordance with local instructions.
The following procedures shall be observed by the aerodrome control tower whenever VFR operations are suspended:
a) hold all VFR (arrivals/departures);
b) recall all local flights operating under VFR or (…);
c) notify the approach control unit or ACC as appropriate of the action taken;
d) notify all operators of the reason for taking such action, if necessary or requested.
The following procedures shall be observed by the aerodrome control tower whenever VFR operations are suspended:
a) hold all VFR (departures);
b) recall all local flights operating under VFR or (obtain approval for special VFR operations);
c) notify the approach control unit or ACC as appropriate of the action taken;
d) notify all operators of the reason for taking such action, if necessary or requested.
The term “runway-in-use” shall be used to indicate the runway or runways that, at a particular time, are considered by the aerodrome control tower to be the (…) for use by the types of aircraft expected to land or take off at the aerodrome.
The term “runway-in-use” shall be used to indicate the runway or runways that, at a particular time, are considered by the aerodrome control tower to be the (most suitable) for use by the types of aircraft expected to land or take off at the aerodrome.
The pilot will, when requested, report “RUNWAY VACATED” when the (nose/main landing gear/entire aircraft) is beyond the relevant runway-holding position.
The pilot will, when requested, report “RUNWAY VACATED” when the (entire aircraft) is beyond the relevant runway-holding position.
List which of the following will be given to an aircraft prior to take-off:

- significant meteorological conditions in the take-off and climb-out area
- the QNH altimeter setting
- the air temperature for the runway to be used
- the visibility representative of the direction of take-off and initial climb, if less than 10 km, or, when applicable, the RVR value(s) for the runway to be used;
- the correct time

Where SSR and/or MLAT is used for identification, aircraft may be identified by, amongst others, observation of compliance with an instruction to squawk (1200/2000/7700/IDENT).
Where SSR and/or MLAT is used for identification, aircraft may be identified by, amongst others, observation of compliance with an instruction to squawk (IDENT).
Squak IDENT can by done (by pilots discretion/only when instructed by a controller).
Squak IDENT can by done (only when instructed by a controller).
Where PSR is used for identification, aircraft may be identified by ascertaining the aircraft heading, if circumstances require, and following a period of track observation:
Instructing the pilot to execute one or more changes of heading of (…) degrees or more.
