Q

What is the procedure to be followed whenever a flight is inbound from NZCI to NZCH below F245?

A

The aircraft shall be cleared on an appropriate STAR which is authorisation for the aircraft to enter controlled airspace. If a STAR POP-UP is not available, an appropriate route clearance to DEST shall be issued.

Q

What effect does a change of CFL have on the flight plan of an aircraft to which a climbing condition has been entered via the co-ordination window?

A

Any modification will cancel a climb/descent condition sent to OCS via the co-ord window. If a CFL change is co-ordinated:
Skyline CFL shall be modified and
All level data, including X-ing level shall be entered into the window again to ensure correct levels are sent to OCS
