4.80.4 Notification of Incidents/Accidents.
- Pilot-in-command (or operator)
- shall notify the Authority as soon as practicable
- Details of an incident must be provided within 14 days.
- The pilot-in-command, (or operator),
- shall notify the Authority as soon as practicable
- Details of an accident must be provided within 10 days.
4.78 Aerodromes Lighting / Pilot Activated Lighting
- At most aerodromes lighting duration is 20 minutes
- By keying the aircraft transmitter
- on the designated frequency
- the lighting options change.
- Five rapid and short transmissions,
- collectively not exceeding three seconds.
- To change intensity, repeat activation sequence,but
- hold the button down on the last transmission.
- Lighting intensity continuously cycles
- until the transmit button is released.
- Where alternative runways are available the cycling will
- include changing to the next runway(s) and
- cycling their brilliance before starting the cycle again.
- At any time a single transmission will
- reset the lighting timer for a further 20 minutes.
- Note: There is no warning prior to the lights turning off.
4.66.2 Radar Services available to VFR flights.
- Provided for VFR flights in classes C and D airspace.
- In Class G airspace, help is available in an emergency
- or with navigation
- Radar is used mainly to separate aircraft within
- controlled airspace and to
- assist aircraft in an emergency
- Heading instructions are given to a pilot by a radar controller
- Different from radar assistance
- Vectoring may be needed if you have inadvertently gone off course or
- when ATC wants to maintain aircraft separation.
4.76.8 Meaning of the various Aerodrome Ground Signals.
- Red and white cone
- Point of cone points into wind
- Dropping area is active.
- White Letter "A"
- indicates agricultural operations
- May NOT comply with circuit direction
- Arrow made of white fabric strips
- indicates Gliding in progress.
- Landing and towing is in the direction of the arrow.
- Tow lines likely to be on the ground around towing source.
- White crosses displayed horizontally
- on the manoeuvring area
- indicate ground or runway
- is unfit for use.
4.75.8 Flight in VFR Transit Lanes
- Areas of uncontrolled airspace within In CONTROLLED airspace
- VFR aircraft restricted as little as possible
- Transiting VFR traffic separated from arriving and departing IFR flights
- and can operate without ATC clearance.
- May only be active during the day.
- Clear of airspace where IFR arrival/departure procedures occur
- Buffer zones provided between flight paths
- of arriving and departing IFR flights and each VFR transit lane
- Solid Blue Lines
- Letter 'T' followed by 3-digit code
- Identifying name.
- Upper/lower limits near the Code.
- "DAY" is added to emphasize day operation only
4.76.4 Method of Runway Designation
- 2-digits based on the
- whole number nearest to
- 1/10 of magnetic azimuth of the centreline.
- Magnetic azimuth is 268°M,
- - runway designated RWY 27
4.75.28 Aircraft in a Common Frequency zone (CFZ)
- Non-mandatory airspace
- Encourage pilots to use a single VHF frequency
- areas of concentrated aviation activity
- Blue diamond-shaped lines.
- Transmit position and intention
- using published frequency
- regular intervals
- Aircraft lights ON
