1L2 Winnipeg Terminal and Surrounding Airspace Flashcards
Sectors will normally be consolidated in the following order
- DEPARTURE ECHO (DE) shall consolidate into DEPARTURE WHISKY (DW) as traffic and workload permit.
- DEPARTURE WHISKY (DW) shall consolidate into ARRIVAL (AA) as traffic and workload permit.
- Consolidate the DN CJS as follows:
a. With DE when RWY 31 or 13 is DDR1 in NON-Ground Sort scenario
b. With DW in all other configurations
*Sectors will normally de-consolidate in reverse order to the above

You may vector an aircraft into Class G airspace if:
You inform the pilot and obtain the pilot’s approval
When vectoring, ensure the following: (2)
1) Provide aircraft with adequate terrain clearance by assigning altitudes at or above a minimum IFR altitude specified for the area within which they are being vectored
2) Follow unit procedures to assign cold temperature corrected minimum IFR altitudes, if applicable.
Flight Data Position responsibilities
- Operate as support for ARRIVAL.
- Provide support to DEPARTURE WHISKEY and DEPARTURE ECHO as available.
- Maintain current flight data information in EXCDS for aircraft under ARRIVAL control.
- Coordinate between ARRIVAL and DEPARTURE sectors as required.
- Coordinate between TCU and adjacent sectors/units as required.
- Input, modify and delete CAATS flight plans as required.
- Operate, monitor serviceability and report malfunctions of equipment associated with the specialty.
- Pass PIREPS to appropriate sectors.
- Issue IFR clearances via ATC interphone or external telephone as required after coordination with the appropriate radar sector.
