3L5 Complex Departure Environment Flashcards
MATS List
You—or an airport controller working at a tower where a DAL has been issued for IFR Departure Release—may authorize a successive departure on an intersecting runway, provided: (8)
- You provide terminal control service.
- The ATS surveillance sources include MLAT/WAM, DND-NG, or RSE but do not include DND-NWS.
- When required, apply wake turbulence separation to the second aircraft.
- CSiT or NARDS displays a maximum range of 120 miles from left to right.
- The runways diverge by 15° or more
- Each aircraft is identified within 1 mile of the runway used for takeoff.
- The first aircraft has cleared the intersection.
- Neither aircraft turns toward the departure path of the other until another form of separation is achieved.
As long as the WG Radar is functioning, who is responsible for initial IFR separation?
Winnipeg Tower
MATS List
You—or an airport controller working at a tower where a DAL has been issued for IFR Departure Release—may authorize a departure before an arrival on intersecting runways, provided that all the following conditions apply: (5)
- You provide terminal control service.
- The ATS surveillance sources include MLAT/WAM, DND-NG, or RSE but do not include DND-NWS.
- The departing aircraft takes off in a direction that differs by 45° or more from the reciprocal of the track of an arriving aircraft.
- The arriving aircraft meets all the following conditions:
◦ Is identified on final approach
◦ Will not execute a circling procedure
◦ Intends to make a full-stop landing, or execute a stop-and-go or a touch-and-go - You—or an airport controller working at a tower where a DAL has been issued for IFR Departure Release—must ensure that the departing aircraft has crossed the
intersection of the arrival runway before one of the following distances applies to the arriving aircraft:
◦ 2 miles from the threshold of the arrival runway
◦ 2 miles from the intersection of the departure and arrival runways if the airport controller can accurately determine the position of the departing aircraft either
visually or with the use of A-SMGCS/SMGCS
Max allowable turns when paired runways are valid
36 (005)- 045
31 (315)- 275
18 (185)- 225
13 (135)- 095
ACT
Automatic Control Transfer
-when in effect, tower is no longer required to provide IFR separation between arrivals and departures
To depart an IFR aircraft from any runway other than what is pre-approved and displayed on EXCDS, tower must:
Receive approval and validation from TCU
(Priority flights and aircraft with declared operational requirements are exempt)
When Ground Sort is in effect, tower must assign runways for departure gates as follows:
Red Lake- 36
Ste. Anne - 36
Altona - 31
Delta - 31
The Pas - 31
Norway House - 31
VIDS
Visual IFR Departure Separation
-A tool that allows Winnipeg Tower to release IFR departures more efficiently using the controller or pilot’s visual reference to the preceding traffic.
MATS List
The airport controller may use controller-applied and pilot-applied visual IFR departure separation for IFR aircraft, provided the following conditions are met as well as the conditions listed in either Controller-Applied or Pilot-Applied as appropriate:
- You provide terminal control service.
- The procedures are detailed in an arrangement that is approved by the Director, ATS Standards. The appendix of the arrangement contains a copy of, or reference to, the Director Approval Letter. (1)
- Another form of separation is assured before and after the provision of visual separation.
- Departure routes, aircraft performance, and weather conditions do not preclude maintaining visual separation.
- If visual contact is lost by the pilot or the airport controller before another form of separation is established, an AOR is filed.
- If an aircraft is converging with another aircraft from which it is maintaining visual separation, issue traffic and inform the pilot of the other aircraft that visual separation is being applied
(1)- The arrangement must specify the following:
* The clearances and instructions that the ACC controller delegates to the airport controller, and that the airport controller may issue to the aircraft on the planned missed approach
* The point at which another form of separation must exist
* That IFR separation between the aircraft on the planned missed approach and all other aircraft, with the exception of the departure in question, remains the responsibility of the ACC controller.
In EXCDS, what does a green CTL VIDS box indicate?
Controller applied VIDS is in effect
2 methods for assigning headings prior to departure at CYWG
1) Tower will request a heading via EXCDS
2) TCU can assign a heading via EXCDS
What does a black number with an orange background in the FDE heading box indicate?
Tower turn request
How does TCU request Tower assign a turn to departures?
-By inputting a heading in the HDG box on the FDE strip
-Assigned headings are displayed in yellow, blue headings are approved by Tower
MATS List
In addition to the requirements listed in Conditions to Apply Controller‑Applied and Pilot‑Applied, the airport controller may use controller‑applied visual IFR departure separation to release successive departing IFR aircraft from any runways, provided:
- The airport controller applies visual separation only within the control zone of the airport.
- The airport controller visually observes that the first aircraft is airborne and has either turned to clear the departure path of the second aircraft, or reached a point where it will no longer conflict with the departure path of the second aircraft.
- The airport controller maintains direct and continuous visual observation of the aircraft, until another form of separation is established.
- The airport controller issues traffic information to the second aircraft.
- Unless waived by the pilot of the second aircraft, the airport controller applies wake turbulence separation.
- Prior to handing the second aircraft off to you, the airport controller establishes one of the following:
◦ Vertical separation
◦ ATS surveillance separation
◦ The aircraft are established on assigned headings that are corrected for wind drift and that diverge by 15° or more.
MATS List
You—or an airport controller working at a tower where a DAL has been issued for IFR Departure Release—may authorize a successive departure when the aircraft are separated by 1 mile, and the following apply:
- You provide terminal control service.
- The ATS surveillance sources include MLAT/WAM, DND-NG, or RSE but do not include DND-NWS.
- When required, apply wake turbulence separation as indicated in Wake: Departure from Adjacent Airport.
- CSiT or NARDS displays a maximum range of 120 miles from left to right.
- Each aircraft is identified within 1 mile of the runway used for takeoff.
- The aircraft tracks diverge immediately after takeoff, and remain diverged until another form of separation is achieved.
