Q

What separation can be provided to SVFR aircraft in the vicinity of the aerodrome? (Not Luton specific separation)
(3)

A
  1. In the vicinity, if adequate separation can be provided by AIR when each aircraft is continuously visible to controller.
  2. In the vicinity, if each aircraft is continuously visible to the pilots of the other aircraft, and the pilots report they can maintain their own separation.
  3. In the vicinity, when one aircraft is following another if the pilot of the succeeding aircraft reports he has the other in sight and can maintain own separation.

Q

What deemed separation is there for SVFR aircraft in the vicinity of Luton airport?
(3)

A
  1. Between SVFR flights only, operating wholly within the North or South lane.
  2. Between SVFR flights and IFR arrivals established on final. Provided SVFR operating wholly in North lane North of Offley, or wholly in South lane South of Hyde.
  3. Between SVFR flights and IFR departures from R26 tracking towards BNN or from R08 on runway heading. Provided SVFR operating wholly in North lane North of Offley, or wholly in South lane South of Hyde.
17
Q

Do the deemed separations apply to traffic using the South-West or South-East departure routes?

A

No.

Unless TC Luton can provide radar separation, all SVFR traffic is to route via South/North lane.

18
Q

Are wheeled helicopters capable of ground taxi permitted to air taxi?

A

No.

Helicopters able to ground taxi should be instructed to do so.

19
Q

Which direction departures/arrivals can the helicopter aiming point procedure be used for?

A

South only.

20
Q

Using the aiming point procedure, can helicopters cross the runway while traffic backtracks/lines up?

A

Yes. Provided traffic/aerodrome information is passed and helicopter pilot can see the aircraft.

21
Q

What is the phraseology to be used for landing and departing helicopters using the “HAP”?

A

“(C/S), cross the runway, cleared to land at (H1/C1).”

“(C/S) at (H1/C1) cleared for take-off and cross the runway.”

22
Q

Can the HAP be used at night?

A

Yes. Even while traffic is lined-up or backtracking.

23
Q

When should the HAP NOT be used?

3

A
  1. At night, if the pilot indicates they wish to use the runway QDM and another aircraft is lining/lined up.
  2. For arriving IFR helicopters.
  3. During LVPs.
24
Q

What considerations should be given for the HAP in the case of a low approach/go around or an early rotation from a departure (before C)?

A

Wake turbulence separation.

25
Q

Which town South of Luton are VFR helicopters to avoid overflying?

A

Harpenden

26
Q

If you wanted/needed a VFR helicopter to fly above alt 1500ft, who would you coordinate with?

A

TC Luton

27
Q

What is the standard routing followed by VFR helicopters inbound from the South to R26?

A

A1MJ4 -> Kimpton Hall -> Hyde -> Airport
