What areas require SVFR
Pad 2
HLA 1
HLA 2

What CVFR operations are authorized during SVFR AT SHOC
CVFR arrivals into HOP via the

WEST CORRIDOR
TRAFFIC PATTERN
When shall ARAC terminate CVFR ops at CAAF
SVFR/IFR arrivals into SAH or CKV unless SVFR/IFR arrives from the southwest, south, southeast
SVFR/IFR departures from SAH or CKV unless SVFR/IFR departs to the southwest south of southeast
If the MA or climb out for an IFR approach into SAH or CKV takes the a/c northbound
ARAC will hold CVFR a/c via the _____________ with SVFR/IFR into _____________
East corridor
CKV
CVFR may be confined at CAAF during SVFR/IFR arr and dep provided CVFR ARE RESTRICTED TO WHAT AREA
west of Kentucky ave
South of line, 42nd street and am extension of 42nd to the west until intersecting with market gardens road and then east of market garden road
What criteria needs to be met in order for aircraft to operate under the CVFR exception ( west of Kentucky ave South of line, 42nd street and am extension of 42nd to the west until intersecting with market gardens road and then east of market garden road)
- IFR a/c is conducting an IFR APPROACH to CAAF
- Conducting a contact approach and will proceed via the NW quadrant of the class D a/s
- SVFR enters via the NW quadrant of D a/s
- 23 IFR dep are give a right turn release
- RY 5 IFR dep are given a climb RH OR LEFT TURN
If CAAF has the IFR/SVFR in sight prior to the FAF/5.5
TWR shall notify arac when the visibility is what
Less than 3 or when it differs from AF WX

Runway end identified lights (REIL)
Consists of a pair of synchronized flashing lights located laterally on each side of the runway
REIL
What color are runway lights and what is the exception
