202 Flashcards
MATS ACC > Traffic Management > Communication and Coordination > Flight Data Coordination > IFR Unit to IFR Unit
Forward the following to an IFR unit or sector:
- Revisions to previously passed data
- Control estimate time revisions of 3 minutes or more
Martin ACC SOM 201 D
Flight plan information will be forwarded to adjacent sectors via electronic methods.
Changes to route and/or altitude are permitted until an aircraft is within…
30 miles of the receiving sector’s boundary with the exception noted in article 206 (North West Procedural Corner)
Martin ACC SOM 206 C
For aircraft transiting the North West Procedural Corner…
verbal coordination is required with the Mountain sector for all route, altitude, and flight plan changes when an aircraft is within 15 minutes flying time of the common boundary.
MATS ACC > Traffic Management > Communication and Coordination > Flight Data Coordination > IFR Unit to IFR Unit
15 minutes or more before an IFR or CVFR aircraft is estimated to enter an adjacent IFR unit’s area, forward the flight data and control information indicated in Flight Data and Control Information.
1) Aircraft Identification
2) Aircraft Type
-Prefixed by number of aircraft if more than 1
-Include the appropriate equipment suffix
-The word HEAVY identifies a heavy aircraft
3) Speed (at least one of)
-Filed true airspeed in knots
-Mach number
-Actual ground speed
-Indicated air speed
4) SSR Code Assignment (if necessary)
5) Point of Departure
6) Remaining Portion of the Flight Route
7) Estimated time and altitude over the last fix within the control area or other point agreed to by the concerned units
8) Altitude of entry into the adjacent units sector
-if different than altitude over the last fix
9) Estimated Time of Arrival
-As specified in the flight plan, if requested
10) Clearance Information, includes:
-Clearance limit, if other than the destination airport
-Special instructions, if issued
11) The fact that the aircraft is on a diversion, if applicable
12) Altitude Requested, if different from assigned altitude
13) Other information, as appropriate
MATS ACC > Traffic Management > Communication and Coordination > Flight Data Coordination > IFR Unit to IFR Unit
Where units are connected by a functioning data transfer link…
- destination
- remaining portion of the flight route
- aircraft type
- speed
- SSR code assignment
- point of departure
do not require confirmation by controllers passing and receiving estimates. If amendments to this data have been made and are not included in the original flight plan message, controller confirmation is required
MATS ACC > Traffic Management > Communication and Coordination
> Flight Data Coordination > IFR Unit to IFR Unit > Verbal Coordination
Where a functioning CAATS data link provides control estimates, coordinate the following data verbally:
- Loss of RVSM certification due to an equipment failure in flight
- Status of a non–RVSM aircraft authorized to operate in RVSM airspace
- Identification of an altitude as wrong way
- Identification of block altitudes
- Identification of altitude readouts that are invalid or not validated
- Identification of cruise climb altitudes
- Automatic altitude reporting turned off
- Aircraft transponder unserviceable, malfunctioning, set to standby, or turned off
- The separation minima being applied in procedural airspace if less than 10 minutes longitudinal
- Aircraft operating within an altitude reservation or engaged in an aerial survey mapping flight, or test flight
- Aircraft engaged in a formation flight
MATS ACC > Traffic Management > Communication and Coordination > Flight Data Coordination > Reading Back Flight Data Transfer
Except when using electronic means, when passing or receiving data for an IFR or CVFR flight, do the following:
- Aircraft Identification
- Altitude Information
- Estimate or actual time for the fix
- if a handoff will follow between the sector or units concerned, you may omit a readback of the estimate
MATS ACC > Traffic Management > Clearances and Instructions > Issuing and Relaying > Obtaining Readbacks
When issuing or relaying an IFR clearance or IFR instruction or amendment, obtain an accurate readback unless one of the following applies:
- Information is relayed electronically.
- An arrangement specifies otherwise.
