Q

What must be done when an aircraft will cross the boundary in a climb or descent to ZFW or ZHU?

A

The transferring controller must initiate the hand off and then APREQ the climb/descent with the sector controlling the altitude the aircraft is assigned and affect a point out if required to the sector controlling the altitude through which the aircraft is transitioning

Q

What is done for an aircraft at or above FL240 that wants to land at an airport within 75 miles?

A

Transferring center shall initiate coordination for a lower altitude with the appropriate low sector for all aircraft at and above FL240 proposing to land at airports within 75 NM of the center boundary and ensure point outs are made

Q

JAN APCH owns what airspace during radar operations?

A

10,000 and below

20
Q

How does ZAE deliver A/C to JAN APCH?

A

Within the confines of the arrival transition areas-jets X boundary at 11,000 and 250 kts –props X at 7,000- jets below 10,000 require coordination

21
Q

When does JAN APCH assume control of arrivals and for what?

A

After hand off and com change for descent, speed reduction, and turns direct the airport

22
Q

If holding is required ZAE must?

A

Clear subsequent arrivals to the appropriate holding fix and JAN APCH cannot transition the aircraft beyond the clearance limit until 10,000 or below

23
Q

How must JAN APCH clear departures?

A
  • Via routings which ensure A/C transition within the confines of the departure transition areas
  • Aircraft requesting 11,000 or above to 10,000 and expect filed 10 mins after departure
  • Aircraft requesting 10,000 or below to requested altitude
24
Q

What is the TCP for JAN APCH and ZAE departures? And what separation must JAN provide?

A

Boundary and 5 miles constant or increasing

25
Q

How are over flights worked with JAN APCH?

A

Cleared via route/altitude on strip (IAFDOF does not need

coordination) and routes that are clear of R931A

26
Q

What must ZAE do when air aircraft will cross JAN boundary in a climb or descent?

A
  • Initiate hand off and the APREQ if final alt is at or below 10,000
  • Effect point out before A/C transitions approach airspace
27
Q

What happens when an aircraft requests lower when landing within 75 nm of the boundary?

A

The transferring facility must initiate coordination for lower with the appropriate sector for all aircraft at FL240 and higher and also must ensure that all point outs are made to all affected sectors

28
Q

When must arrival information be forwarded to GWO tower?

A

Sequence change and or aircraft are issued an approach to a runway other than tower specified runway in use

29
Q

What happens when a UTM is received?

A

Manual coordination for the flight plan data and verify the flight plan data to the receiving facility within three minutes of the TCP estimate

30
Q

When is a communication change made for GWO tower?

A

Prior to FAF or 5 miles for a VA or prior to entering the surface area unless otherwise coordinated

31
Q

What must ZAE assign when issuing a release to GWO?

A

Altitude to maintain and any alternate routing or other

instructions as necessary

32
Q

What airspace does MLU APCH own?

A

Up to and including 12,000

33
Q

How does ZAE deliver A/C to MLU APCH?

A

Within the confines of the arrival transition areas-jets X 31 miles E at 13,000–props X at 7,000

34
Q

When does MLU APCH assume control of arrivals and for what?

A

• After hand off and com change for descent, speed adjustments, and turns
• Must not reverse, hold, or climb an arrival without ZAE approval
• Must transition arrival into terminal airspace before ZFW
boundary or point out

35
Q

If holding is required ZAE must?

A
  • Clear subsequent arrivals to the RINKY intersection at or above 13,000 to hold on V18 (must be coordinated if below 12,000)
  • ZAE must point out with ZFW
36
Q

How must MLU APCH clear departures?

A
  • Via routings which ensure A/C transition within the confines of the departure transition areas
  • Aircraft requesting 13,000 or above to 12,000 and expect filed 10 mins after departure
  • Aircraft requesting 12,000 or below to requested altitude
37
Q

How are over flights worked with MLU APCH?

A

Cleared via route/altitude on strip

38
Q

ZAE shall do what when an aircraft will cross the MLUAPCH

boundary in a climb or descent?

A
  • Hand off then APREQ

* Pont out

39
Q

What is ZAE responsible for in regards to BATFE?

A
  • Airspace coordination and NOTAM issuance

* Ensure that non participating aircraft under their control remain clear of R357

40
Q

R357:

A

• Established for testing and disposal of explosives and or
ammunition
• Contains only activities that do not involve aircraft
• Using agency shall return use of R357 to controlling agency when not in use for the designated purpose for periods of 2 hours or more
• May only be released to using agency during radar operations

41
Q

When can ZAE clear aircraft through R357?

A

When released to controlling agency

42
Q

When shall the using agency return the use of R357 to the controlling agency?

A

With 5 minutes notice

43
Q

When must BATFE give ZAE a schedule?

A

By noon local time each Friday from Sun-Sat and ZAE should NOTAM

44
Q

During radar procedures Jackson turbojet arrivals shall be cleared to cross the APCH lateral boundry ____ft and ___kts.

A

11,000 and 250

45
Q

ZAE and ZFW LOA states that during radar procedures when an APREQ is required for a climb/descent with the receiving sector a ______.

A

Hand off must be initiated first
