Q

What are the conditions for performing a silent handover between Antrim Sector and Aldergrove?

A
  • Route and Level: The aircraft must be following the agreed route and at, or climbing/descending to, the agreed level.
  • Altitude and Location: The aircraft must be below FL195, within CAS, and within 60NM of the ARP (or within 40NM if outside CAS).

Spacing Requirements:
* In Trail: 10NM, constant or increasing, between aircraft.
* Parallel/Diverging Headings: 5NM, constant or increasing, provided the headings follow the general direction of the route.
* Deemed Separation: Aircraft on deemed separated parallel routes are automatically considered separated. M147/148 or M146/Q39 routes are deemed separated; Q38/39 routes are not until both aircraft are established.

  • Cognisance of Previous Traffic: The transferring unit must consider previously transferred traffic.
  • Coordination: The Antrim Sector Controller must coordinate a different inbound level if needed to resolve conflicts between inbound aircraft.

Q

What are the procedures for the transfer of control and communications for arriving and departing traffic between sectors?

A

Transfer of Arriving Traffic:

  • Must be completed by BLACA, NELBO, or ABSUN, as appropriate.

Transfer of Departing Traffic:

  • Must be completed by BLACA or before crossing a line between NEVRI and RINGA, as appropriate.

Transfer of Control and Communications:

  • Coincident with the transfer of communications, provided the receiving unit:
  • Continues the flight in the same general direction.
  • Does not climb inbound traffic, descend outbound traffic, or stop traffic at an intermediate level while it is still in the airspace of the offering unit.
  • Any potential conflicts within the offering sector’s airspace must be resolved before the transfer of communications.
  • The receiving sector must consider previously transferred traffic.

Longitudinal Separation:

  • If 10NM constant or increasing separation exists, EGAA Radar can route EGAA and EGAC departures on their own navigation to the appropriate reporting point.
  • If separation is not sufficient, EGAA Radar must position the departures on a tactical heading towards the reporting point or coordinate verbally with Antrim.

For Traffic on a Radar Heading:

  • The receiving unit (PC) must not change the radar heading unless verbal coordination occurs until the aircraft:
  • Is at or above FL100, or
  • Has passed BLACA or crossed a line between NEVRI and RINGA.

Note: Antrim may turn transferred traffic by no more than 20° upon transfer of communications.

Q

What airspace is delegated to Belfast City (EGAC) during the airport’s hours of operation?

A

The airspace between 2,000ft and 3,000ft above EGAC’s Control Zone and CTAs 1 & 2 is delegated to EGAC during the airport’s hours of opening.

Q

What is the standard separation between aircraft controlled by EGAA Radar and EGAC ATC, and how is separation managed when transiting above EGAC airspace?

A

Standard Separation: 5nm or 1,000’.

When Transiting Above EGAC CTR or CTA1/2:
* EGAA inbound aircraft must remain vertically separated from EGAC outbound aircraft, regardless of the departure runway, until:
* (a) The EGAC departure is identified and lateral separation is achieved, or
* (b) Deemed separation can be applied.

Q

Under what conditions are EGAA inbound aircraft deemed separated from other traffic, and what tools assist in determining this separation?

A

Deemed Separation Conditions:

EGAA inbound aircraft are deemed separated from:
* An inbound aircraft established on the FAT for Runway 22/04.
* EGAC inbound aircraft making a standard missed approach.
* Departing aircraft off Runway 22 once west of the solid red line 3nm NW of and parallel to the FAT.
* Departing aircraft on 04 Noise Abatement Track once west of the dotted red line 3nm NW of and parallel to the Noise Preferential Routeing of 033°.
* EGAA inbound aircraft already west of EGAC CTR, north of P6, and diverging from the 04/22 centerline are deemed separated from an outbound requested by EGAC.

Tools for Determining Separation:

  • AERON >3NM_NPR video map overlay must be displayed by EGAA.
  • AERON >5NM_NPR is available to assist Aldergrove Radar in determining 5nm separation.
17
Q

What must EGAA ensure before transferring EGAC IFR departures to PC?

A

EGAA must ensure that all EGAC IFR departures are identified, validated, and verified prior to transfer to PC.

18
Q

What is the procedure for issuing an ATC clearance and requesting a release for EGAC departures?

A
  • ATC Clearance: EGAC will issue a clearance as per the referenced routes or to leave CAS according to the flight plan, up to an altitude of 3,000’.
  • Release Request: A release will be requested via EFPS with EGAA INT.
19
Q

What is the procedure for handling Belfast City (EGAC) arrivals within the TMA?

A

All TMA inbound aircraft are transferred from PC Antrim/West Coast to EGAA. EGAA will then separate EGAC inbound aircraft from other TMA traffic and appropriately position the aircraft relative to other TMA aircraft.

20
Q

What is EGAA’s role in handling TMA inbound aircraft transferred from PC Antrim/West Coast?

A

EGAA is responsible for separating EGAC inbound aircraft from other TMA traffic and appropriately positioning these aircraft relative to other TMA aircraft after they are transferred from PC Antrim/West Coast.

21
Q

What does EGAA do with EGAC inbound aircraft transferred from PC Antrim/West Coast?

A

EGAA separates EGAC inbound aircraft from other TMA traffic and positions them appropriately relative to other TMA aircraft after they are transferred from PC Antrim/West Coast.

22
Q

What are the procedures for EGAA when an aircraft departs to operate in or near EGAC’s Area of Responsibility?

A
  • EGAA must show the aircraft to EGAC and coordinate the routeing and frequency.
  • If the clearance limit is within EGAC airspace: EGAA will clear the aircraft into controlled airspace.
  • If the clearance limit is outside EGAC airspace: The pilot should be instructed to remain outside controlled airspace and contact Belfast Radar.
23
Q

What is the procedure for EGAC when S/VFR traffic is routeing towards Aldergrove and into or near EGAA’s Area of Responsibility?

A
  • EGAC must show the strip of S/VFR traffic to EGAA and coordinate the routeing and frequency for the aircraft.
  • If the clearance limit is within the EGAA Control Zone: EGAC will clear the aircraft into controlled airspace.
  • If the clearance limit is outside the EGAA Control Zone: The pilot should be instructed to remain outside controlled airspace and contact EGAA Radar.
24
Q

What is the procedure for handling VFR traffic intending to operate above Belfast City (EGAC) airspace?

A

VFR traffic intending to operate above EGAC’s area of responsibility must be coordinated with EGAC Radar. EGAC Radar will then assume responsibility for ensuring separation between this VFR traffic and aircraft under their control.

25
Q

What are the methods for achieving SVFR separation, and how is separation managed within the SE sector of EGAA and EGAC?

A

SVFR Separation Methods:

  • 3nm Separation
  • Deemed Separation

Deemed Separation in the SE Sector:

  • SVFR aircraft operating within the SE sector are deemed separated from:
  • Arriving/departing aircraft from EGAC.
  • SVFR aircraft southeast of the 04/22 centerline.
  • Condition: Separation is deemed once the SVFR aircraft is northwest of the solid red line, 3nm northwest of the 04/22 centerline.

Responsibility:

  • EGAA Radar: Ensures that SVFR aircraft remain northwest of the red line.
  • EGAC: Ensures their traffic remains southeast of the 04/22 centerline.
26
Q

What are the local squawk blocks allocated to EGAA and EGAC, and what should be done with local squawks prior to transferring between units?

A
  • EGAA: 7030-7047
  • EGAC: 4250-4257
  • Procedure: Local squawks should be canceled before transferring from one unit to another, but they may be retained after coordination. EGAC often uses Mode S for identification, and EGAA may request EGAC to allocate a local squawk for better situational awareness.
