Q

How to leave nat track for contingency?

A
  • NEVER LEAVE TRACK UNTIL DESCEND IS NEEDED and UNABLE TO OBTAIN ATC CLEARANCE.
    Maintain SLOP 0.1.2 Until clearance or need to descend.

Turn MINIMUM 30deg.
-lights on
-communicate 121.5-123.45, CPDLC
-At 5nm parallel start descend below FL290.
-Choose flight level 500ft offset. (285,275,265 ect.)

Q

What happens if you have only 1 LRNS AFTER entry of NAT HLA?

A
  • Request ATC clearance to continue in NAT HLA
  • Review circumstances.
  • Above FL420 or below FL285.
  • Review all performance / nav sources available.
  • Other contrails might provide track indication

Q

Diversion from NAT HLA track?

A
  • 5nm offset FIRST
  • then descend to FL285 or climb to FL420.
  • Then proceed according to the situation (start urgent diversion) or according to ATC clearance.

Q

General Contingency NAT HLA?

A

-STAY ON SLOP 0.1.2 Until clearance. If you HAVE TO descend without clearance do as follows:

  • turn min 30deg.
  • light on
  • 5nm offset.
  • squak 7700
  • Get clearance
  • Descend offset by 500ft if required.

Q

NAT HLA when is GPS required?

A

On PBCS RNP4 routes.

DLM fl 290-410 Means CPDLC and ADS-C which required GPS /VHF (no coverage whole NAT HLA)

Q

Is GPS required in NAT HLA?

A

ONLY in the PBCS part or the NAT HLA. Because OF DLM you need VHF reception without GPS. Effectivly you need GPS from FL290-FL410.

Q

Do you need CPLDC AND ADS-C in NAT HLA?

A

YES, except a few areas, north of 80deg, blue spruce ect.
Iceland greenland corridor.

30
Q

Why do you need MAWEA?
