Use inbound gates for Overflights <= fl230
Rules of Class G Vectoring
You may vector an aircraft into class G airspace if you inform the pilot and obtain the pilot’s approval.
Min IFR Altitude
The lowest IFR altitude established for use in a specific airspace, depending on the airspace concerned, the minimum IFR altitude may be MOCA, MEA, MSA, MVA, Min safe Alt 100NM, TAA, AMA, Transition Alt, Missed Approach.
Altimeter Math
29.92 - 29.93 = 10 ft, 29.92 - 29.82 = 100ft, 29.92 - 28.92 = 1000ft
Lowest Available Flight Level Based on Altimeter
> 29.92 = FL 180
29.91 - 28.92 = FL 170
28.91 - 27.92 = FL 200
< 27.91 = FL 210
Altimeter Say Twice
Issue the Altimeter as follows:
- The setting 28.99 and lower OR 31.00 and higher, state the setting twice.
- “Altimeter [xx] I say again Altimeter [xx]”
MIA
Minimum IFR Altitude
- Lowest Altitude that can be established in an Airspace using IFR.
MOCA
Minimum Obstacle Clearance Altitude
- Altitude Above Sea Level between specified fixes on airways or Routes
MEA
Minimum Enroute Altitude
- The altitude above sea level between specified fixs on airways or air routes that assure acceptable Navigational signal coverage and meet the IFR obstacle clearance requirement.
MSA
Minimum Sector Altitude
- the lowest altitude that will provide a minimum clearance of 1000ft under conditions of standard temp and pressure above all objects located in a 25NM circle centred on NAVAID
MVA
Minimum Vectoring Altitude
- The lowest altitude for vectoring aircraft by ATC that meets obstacle clearance and radio coverage requirement in the specified Airspace
AMA
Area Minimum Altitude
- the lowest altitude for obstacle clearance given in a given area.
Speed Restrictions
<10000 ft no more 250kt
<3000 ft no more 200kt 10 miles cyxx

Wind Shear
A change in wind speed and/or direction in a short distance. It can exist in a horizontal or vertical direction, occasionally both
What Class and Base of an Airway
Class E airspace starting from 2200 AGL
Mandatory Frequency
When an aircraft is approaching a MF area, instruct the pilot to change to the MF BEFORE reaching the area.
if the pilot needs to leave your frequency to make required Mandatory Frequency Area Reports, advise the pilot to report leaving and returning to ATC frequency.
RSC/CRFI Valid Times
RSC and CRFI reports are valid for 8 or 24 hours, depending on the reporting method and classification of the aerodrome.
Distributed by NOTAM which remains in effect until cancelled, replaced or expired.
ID Doubtful or Lost
If ID becomes doubtful or lost, immediately do either of the following:
- ID or RE-ID the aircraft using the same technique more than once or use more that one technique.
- Terminate ATS Surveillance service and provide Procedural Separation
Airway Overlap V306/V327
Airspace planners determined that the overlap of protected airspace between V306/V327 discontinue at 6.8 Miles or 8 DME.
AC that report MORE than 6.8 miles or 8 DME from YDD are cleared.
If a Pilot makes a Position Report in the Altimeter setting region.
Issue the current altimeter setting for:
- The station over which the AC report
- The Next station along the route of flight
Discrepancies in Estimates
- Check the accuracy of the ATC Estimate.
- If Remains, request pilot to check the aircraft estimate
- If still remains, Take appropriate action to ensure that separation is not compromised.
Reciprocal Track - Procedural Standards
Distance:
- Reports from a common point indicate aircraft have past and are 5 miles apart
- If using DME, outbound AC is 15 DME or more from facility
What do we provide Draper Landers
- Draper Weather
- Draper Altimeter
- Clearance out of Controlled Airspace
- Minimum IFR Altitude in Area
Crossing Track Sep Standards
Time
- 15
- 10 min with 40Min Navaid Coverage
Distance
- 20 DME/Miles
- 10 DME/Miles Lead AC is 20 knts or more faster
Limits on SVFR
Visibility
- 1 Mile Fixed wing
- 1/2 mile Helicopter
Approving
- Pilot Requests
- Ground Visibility above minimum SVFR.
- Obtain approval from ACC
- Make adequate arrangement for recall
- Keep SVFR AC clear of the IFR Flight Paths
- Authorize only the number of AC you can control saftely and efficently
- At Night only Helicopters.
Sandy Tower Limitations
Arrivals
- Verbally inform Martin ACC when an IFR AC has landed, Cancelled IFR or when requesting a Control Transfer
- inform ACC if IFR arrival has cancelled IFR fails to arrive at Sandy
Departures
- Obtain a Clearance for each IFR Departure
- Call for an IFR clearance within 3 minutes of the expected Departure time
- Verbally advise the actual time of departure for each IFR Departure
Criteria to OMIT Airport name from clearance
- aircraft identified and monitored until established on final approach
- no likelihood of misunderstanding
