EGPH AD 2.9  SURFACE MOVEMENT GUIDANCE AND CONTROL SYSTEM AND MARKINGS

1

Use of aircraft stand ID signs, TWY guide lines and visual

docking/parking guidance system of aircraft stands

Arriving and departing crew whom are unfamiliar with EGPH should notify ATC prior to taxiing. Apart from the GA Apron, nose-in parking in operation on all aprons. All nose-in stands have stand number, yellow centre-line and Stand Entry Guidance System.

Stand Entry Guidance is provided by AGNIS/Stop Arrow (painted on the apron) or Safedock Docking Guidance System. Flight crew should be familiar with the guidance available and have an understanding on how they operate. Marshalling service is provided for the GA Apron and Stands 21, 23, 28, 99, 101, 308, 309, 310, 310L, 310R, 311, 311L, 311R, 312, 312L, 313, 314, 315, 316, 317 and 317A.

2

Runway and taxiway markings and lighting

Runway marking aid(s):

06/24 : Runway designation, runway centre-line and threshold markings. Touchdown zone and fixed distance markings. Runway edge markings and displaced threshold arrows.

  

Taxiway light(s):

Green centre-line lighting with blue edge lights on sharp curves, red stop bars at holding points. Runway exits have alternate green/yellow centre-line lights to the CAT ll/lll stop bars. Runway guard lights on accesses to runway.

3

Stop bars and runway guard lights (if any)

Stopbars at runway entrance points are in operation H24. Illuminated red stop bars are provided where appropriate.

4

Other runway protection measures

Aircraft parked on the GA Apron may start engines and taxi from a nose out position. Flight and ground crew must ensure that roadways etc are protected against any jet blast/prop wash.

5

Remarks

Aircrew are to note that the Stand Entry Guidance (SEG) on all SEG equipped stands is activated by an apron level timer device, operated by airline/handling agent staff. Pilots should not turn off the taxilane centre-line unless the Stand Entry Guidance is illuminated with aircraft type, or a marshaller has signalled clearance to proceed. Pilots should note that failure to adhere to this instruction may lead to a negative "On Time Performance" figure. On stand taxi speed should not exceed 5 KT.

All operators must ensure that their engineering staff and/or handling agents have suitable, serviceable equipment on station to push and/or tow aircraft which they might operate.

Obstacle markings and snow edge markings are provided where necessary.

Three WDIs serve Runway 06/24: 555650.75N 0032221.86W (LGTD) - 555634.84N 0032306.76W (LGTD) - 555710.67N 0032120.95W (LGTD).

If an aircraft has been repositioned to face out on any stand, it must be either repositioned to nose-in on stand or towed out to the taxiway centre-line before starting engines.

Flight crews should be aware that chart providers may not highlight taxilanes on their published aerodrome chart and taxiways on their published parking/docking chart. When transiting to/from the allocated parking position, aircraft will transit both taxiways and taxilanes.

EGPH AD 2.20  LOCAL AERODROME REGULATIONS

1  Airport Regulations
  1. Use governed by regulations applicable to Edinburgh CTR.

  2. All flights, except General Aviation and Military flights, are subject to the prior approval of the Chief Executive Officer, Edinburgh Airport Ltd (EAL) and prior notification to Airport Coordination Ltd, who act as an agent for the airport. Requests for ad-hoc slot allocations should be made to ACL during working hours Mon-Fri 0830-1700 (0730-1600) by email: lonacxh@acl-uk.org; or Tel: +44 (0)161-493 1850, Fax: +44 (0)161-493 1853, or at all other times to EAL Airside Operations on Tel: +44 (0)131-344 3139. OCS account holders can add, change and cancel slots at any time on the online coordination portal: https://www.online-coordination.com/default.aspx?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1

  3. Fixed-wing and rotary aircraft using Edinburgh Airport do so in accordance with the Conditions of Use document available on request from Edinburgh Airport Ltd. Tel: +44 (0)844 481 8989 or www.edinburghairport.com/cou

  4. Use by aircraft not able to communicate with ATC by radio is subject to prior permission from ATC.

  5. A handling agent (an EAL licensed airline operator or handling agent based at Edinburgh) is a requirement for all flights including general aviation, cargo, military and helicopter movements. All operators, including executive and private general aviation, must make prior arrangements with a handling agent for the ground handling of all flights. Due to limited parking space all aircraft are PPR with their handling agent.

  6. Pilots of international arriving or departing General Aviation aircraft are responsible for presenting their passengers to the UK Border Agency. Transport to and from the control authority facilities will be provided by the handling agent.

  7. Airline operators are requested to note that stand availability is extremely limited, particularly at night and for large wide-bodied aircraft.

  8. The use of the airport is also subject to the limitations imposed by the night noise limitations.

  9. It is a requirement that every airline using Edinburgh Airport must have local orders compatible with the EAL Emergency Orders. Airlines, General Aviation operators and Flying Clubs should also note that it is their responsibility to recover disabled aircraft and aircraft wreckage and have appropriate arrangements in place before commencing flying operations into the airport. EAL will act as the co-ordinating body throughout the recovery operation and has only very limited equipment which might be used to salvage disabled aircraft.

  10. Aircrew can request ATC departure clearance from EOBT-25. Departing aircraft on first contact with Edinburgh ATC must state aircraft type, stand number and the code letter of the latest ATIS received.

  11. Crews should be in receipt of departure clearance prior to requesting push and start.

  12. ATC departure clearance by Data Clearance Link (DCL) is available at Edinburgh for suitably equipped aircraft. DCL must be compliant with ARINC 623-2 and Eurocae ED 85-A. DCL is available as follows: Winter - All flights from EOBT-25 minutes. Summer - Flights with EOBT between 0500Z and 0700Z, EOBT-22 minutes otherwise from EOBT-25 minutes. DCL clearances may not be issued if requested later than EOBT+15 minutes.
    Successful clearances must be accepted within 5 minutes of receipt or a 'REVERT TO VOICE' message will be received. If any data errors are detected by the system or the controller, a 'REVERT TO VOICE' message will be received.
    If the attempt to obtain a clearance is unsuccessful the aircraft should revert to voice RTF.

  13. Crews should request start up clearance only when fully ready to push. This should include doors and hatches closed, steps or air bridge removed, tug attached and communications established with ground crew with confirmation that they are ready. To prevent back of stand vehicle traffic congestion, anti-collision beacons should only be switched on once start clearance has been obtained. Where a push-back is to take place with no headset communication between ground crew and aircraft commander, ATC must be advised of this prior to push-back clearance being requested.

  14. Aircraft commanders should not request taxi clearance until all ground crew have vacated the taxilane.

  15. When on airside external areas, Flight crew and Cabin Crew are required to wear a fully fastened high visibility jacket or tabard.

2  Ground Movement
  1. Arriving and departing crew whom are unfamiliar with EGPH should notify ATC prior to taxiing. All stands are nose-in/push-back. Aircraft on the GA Apron may be turned to face nose out. Aircraft parked on the GA Apron may start engines and taxi from a nose out position. Flight and ground crew must ensure that roadways etc are protected against any jet blast/prop wash. Pilots requiring services on Apron areas, including Customs and Immigration, must ensure that a suitable tow-bar is available.

  2. General Aviation (GA) aircraft requiring UK Border Agency clearance may be initially directed to the passenger apron. Passengers will be taken to the main passenger terminal for UK Border Agency clearance by their handling agent. When all necessary formalities have been completed, aircraft will be required to reposition to an alternate parking location. GA aircraft not requiring UK Border Agency inspection may taxi directly to their allocated parking area.

  3. Aircrews are advised that there is a short section of parallel taxiway incorporating Lima 1 to Lima 2 and Mike 1 to Mike 2 to enable ATC to pass aircraft. Aircraft must remain on the yellow centre-lines to maintain the required minimum wing-tip clearances and should ensure that they understand the routeing given by ATC, particularly at night when both taxiway centre-lines and associated curves are illuminated. The taxiways are clearly delineated by internally illuminated signs and painted ground markings where it has not been possible to provide signs.

  4. At all times, aircrew are responsible for their wingtip separation and, if in any doubt, should stop, hold position and request marshaller assistance. At either end of the Taxiway Alpha, passing places (V and W loops) have been provided to allow aircraft to hold and/or pass aircraft holding on the Taxiway Alpha. Aircraft may pass other aircraft at these locations only when both aircraft concerned have a wingspan of less than 36 M.

  5. Airlines/Aircraft Operators should be aware that stand availability prior to operational first wave is extremely limited and aircraft arriving off schedule prior to first wave are likely to either hold or be allocated any aircraft compliant stand, including non-contact, as they become free.

3  CAT II/III Operations
  1. Runway 06 and 24, subject to serviceability of the required facilities, are suitable for Category ll/lll operations by operators whose minima have been accepted by the Civil Aviation Authority.

  2. During Category ll and lll operations special ATC procedures (ATC low visibility procedures) will be applied. Pilots will be informed by RTF when these procedures are in operation.

  3. Departing Aircraft: Aircraft must not obstruct the Fire Service access road to Runway 06/24 between Holds A10 and A11.

  4. Arriving Aircraft: Pilots should delay the call ‘Runway vacated’ until the aircraft is established on Taxiway Alpha and past the coded taxiway centre-line.

  5. No intersection departures from Bravo and Charlie.

4  Warnings
  1. Pilots are warned that there is a large bird population around the aerodrome and to expect the possibility of increased bird activity in the lower airspace, together with visible evidence of deterrent activity in the form of shell crackers being fired.

  2. Steel plate in place on Echo Taxiway, 15 metres south of E2 and 10 metres West of the Echo Taxiway centreline.

5  Helicopter Operations
  1. All helicopter arrivals and departures are via Runway 06/24.

  2. Arrivals - ATC shall direct traffic to the designated parking area and thereafter will advise on hover/taxiing requirements.

  3. Departures – As directed by ATC.

6  Use of Runways
  1. The declared distances promulgated for the Bravo and Charlie taxiway intersections are taken at the intersection of the downwind edge of the specified taxiway with the runway centre-line. An appropriate adjustment for a line up allowance must additionally be made by aircrew.

  2. Minimum Runway Occupancy Times

    1. Departures

      1. On receipt of line up clearance, pilots should, commensurate with safety and standard operating procedures, line up on the runway without delay.

      2. Whenever possible, cockpit checks should be completed prior to line up and any checks requiring completion whilst on the runway should be kept to the minimum required. Pilots should ensure that they are able to commence the take off roll as soon as clearance is issued.

      3. Pilots not able to comply with these requirements should notify ATC as soon as possible once transferred to the Edinburgh Tower frequency.

    2. Arrivals

      1. Pilots are reminded that rapid exit from the runway will enable ATC to apply minimum spacing on final approach to achieve maximum runway utilisation and will minimise the risk of ‘go-arounds’.

      2. Standard Taxi Routes - After landing pilots must follow the appropriate Standard Taxi Route to the clearance limit specified in the table below. ATC Instruction will not normally be given for aircraft vacating at A1, B1 and D1.

        Runway Exit UsedClearance Limit Via
        A1A8TWY A
        B1A12TWY B and TWY A
        C1As Instructed by ATC (Normally A15 or A16)TWY C and TWY A
        D1A18TWY D and TWY A
  3. Code E/F aircraft must vacate the runway at the end (via A1 or D1) unless escorted by "follow-me" vehicle.

7  Training
  1. Flight Training and/or test flying is permitted subject to prior liaison with, and the agreement of EGPH ATC.

EGPH AD 2.21  NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

EGPH AD 2.22  FLIGHT PROCEDURES

1  Procedures for Inbound Aircraft
  1. Standard Terminal Arrival Routes (STARs). The standard routes for inbound aircraft to Edinburgh are shown at AD 2.EGPH-7-1, AD 2.EGPH-7-2, AD 2.EGPH-7-3, AD 2.EGPH-7-4, AD 2.EGPH-7-5 and AD 2.EGPH-7-6.

  2. Inbound procedure other than via the ATS route network.

    1. Aircraft wishing to enter the CTR/CTA under IFR direct from the FIR must observe the normal procedure for joining Controlled Airspace. For aircraft joining from the North or Northeast, clearance via GRICE to L UW for Runway 06 or direct to L EDN for Runway 24 should be anticipated.

    2. Pilots inbound to Edinburgh under VFR must contact Edinburgh Approach Control prior to entering the CTR/CTA and may be required by ATC to route via the published Visual Reference Points.

  3. Speed

    Speeds published on the STARs should be adhered to unless ATC advise otherwise. Aircraft below FL100 should adhere to the speed limit of Max 250 KT. Tactical speed control may be applied by ATC as required. Pilots unable to comply with speed control must inform ATC Immediately stating the minimum speed acceptable.
2  Approach Procedures with Radar Control
  1. When Edinburgh inbound traffic is being sequenced by Radar, the Approach Procedures will be flown under directions from the Approach Radar Controller and will consist of that part of the approach between the Terminal Holding Fix and the Final Approach Path. When Holding procedures are not in use, radar sequencing may commence before the Terminal Holding Fix.

  2. Pilots should plan their flight profile in such a manner as to be able to achieve the Minimum Holding Level at the appropriate holding point if so required.

  3. When an aircraft is under Approach Radar Control, changes of heading or Flight Level/Altitude will be made only on instructions from the Radar Controller except in the case of radio communication failure in the aircraft or at the Radar Unit.

  4. Headings and Flight Levels/Altitudes at which to leave the holding areas will be passed by ATC. Radar vectors will be given and descent clearance will include an estimate of track distance to touchdown. Further distance information will be given between the initial descent clearance and intercept heading to the ILS.

  5. Speed Control may be applied on a tactical basis to the extent determined necessary by the Radar Controller. Aircraft unable to conform to the speeds specified by the Radar Controller should inform him immediately and state what speeds will be used. In the interests of accurate spacing pilots are requested to comply with speed adjustments as promptly as is feasible within their own operational constraints, and should advise ATC if circumstances necessitate a change of speed for aircraft performance reasons.

  6. GPWS – Owing to the terrain profile to the south of Edinburgh, GPWS warnings are possible on intermediate approach to Runways 06 and 24.

3  Approach Procedures without Radar Control
  1. When inbound traffic is not being sequenced by Radar, aircraft will be cleared from the Terminal Holding Facility via EDN or UW NDB to carry out an Instrument Approach Procedure appropriate to the landing direction.

  2. When Runway 06 is in use, in order to expedite traffic, aircraft may be transferred from TARTN or STIRA holding pattern to UW NDB holding pattern prior to carrying out the Instrument Approach Procedure.

  3. When Runway 24 is in use, in order to expedite traffic, aircraft may be transferred from TARTN or STIRA holding pattern to EDN NDB holding pattern prior to carrying out the Instrument Approach Procedure.

  4. No visual approaches to Runway 06/24 are permitted for IFR aircraft between 2230-0630 (2130-0530). All IFR aircraft are to carry out a published Instrument Approach Procedure under ATC control with the exception of aircraft in emergency. This allows the continued operation when the CVCR is in use and ILS approaches are not available.

4  Noise Abatement Continuous Descent Approach Procedures for Turbo-jet/prop Aircraft
  1. Turbo-jet and turbo-prop aircraft approaching Edinburgh Aerodrome will be expected to conform to the continuous descent and low-power, low-drag approach procedures. To facilitate this technique, aircraft should fly within the speed bands detailed at Paragraph 1, item d. In the interest of accurate spacing, ATC may request specific speeds and pilots are requested to comply with any speed adjustments as promptly as is feasible within their own operational constraints. If circumstances necessitate, a speed change for aircraft performance reasons, ATC should be advised accordingly.

  2. Headings and Flight Levels/Altitudes will be passed by the Radar Controller. Aircraft will be radar vectored either from the holding facility or following transfer of control from the Area Control Unit to Edinburgh Approach. ATC will advise pilots of an estimate of the track distance to run to touchdown when clearance to descend below the Transition Altitude is given. Further information on the distance from touchdown will be given between this descent clearance and the instruction to turn onto the intercept heading to the ILS localizer.

  3. On receipt of descent clearance the pilot will descend at the rate he judges will be best suited to a continuous descent, the object being to join the glidepath at the appropriate height for the distance, without recourse to level flight. Pilots are reminded that due to high ground southeast of the airport, descent below 3000 FT QNH will be in accordance with AD 2-EGPH-5-1

  4. In the event of radar failure, new instructions will be issued to each aircraft under radar control and the procedures as defined for approach without radar control will be put into effect.

  5. Military Jet aircraft – Radar vectoring for ILS approach is mandatory for military fast jet aircraft.

5  Radio Communications Failure Procedures

In the event of complete radio communication failure in an aircraft, the pilot will adopt the appropriate procedures notified at ENR 1.1, subsection 3 with the exceptions detailed below.

  1. When complete communication failure occurs in the aircraft before ETA or before EAT when this has been received and acknowledged, the aircraft will:

    1. Fly to the appropriate holding point;

    2. hold at the last assigned level until the last acknowledged ETA plus 10 minutes or EAT when this has been given;

    3. then commence descent for landing in accordance with the procedure detailed on the Instrument Approach charts and effect a landing within 30 minutes (or later if able to land visually).

  2. If complete radio communication failure occurs after an aircraft has reported to ATC on reaching the holding point, the aircraft will:

    1. Maintain the last assigned holding level at the appropriate holding point until:

      1. ATA over holding point plus 10 minutes or 10 minutes after the last acknowledged communication with ATC, whichever is the later; or

      2. EAT when this has been received and acknowledged;

    2. then commence descent for landing in accordance with the procedure detailed on the Instrument Approach charts and effect a landing within 30 minutes (or later if able to land visually).

  3. In the event of complete radio failure in an aircraft which has been cleared for an IFR inter-aerodrome flight within the Scottish TMA the pilot will adopt the appropriate procedure as follows, depending upon the phase of flight:

    1. If the aircraft is receiving a radar service and is within the ATCSMAC of the destination aerodrome, the pilot will adopt the appropriate loss of communication procedure for the runway-in-use as detailed in the ATCSMAC information at AD 2-EGPH-5-1. Landing must be effected within 30 minutes (or later if able to land visually);

    2. If the aircraft is either not receiving a radar service or is receiving a radar service but has not yet arrived within the ATCSMAC of the destination aerodrome, the pilot will proceed to the appropriate holding point at the destination aerodrome at the last assigned level or 4000 FT whichever is higher. He will then adopt the procedures in paragraph's 5a or 5b.

  4. The route and altitude to be used when leaving the CTR/CTA in accordance with the procedures at ENR 1.1, subsection 3 are shown in the table; the route to be followed is dependent on the position of the aircraft at the time the decision to leave the CTR is made.

    Position at time of decision

    Route

    Edinburgh Airport EDN or UW NDB

    Track 025°T from facility at 4000 FT ALT until crossing the Edinburgh CTR Boundary.

6  Procedures for Outbound Aircraft
  1. Non-Airways IFR departing flights from Edinburgh routeing in the open FIR to the north or northeast should anticipate ATC clearance normally at an altitude below 6000 FT.

7  Speed Limit
  1. A speed limitation of 250 KT applies to all departures following SIDs whilst flying below FL 100 unless previously removed by ATC. ATC will endeavour to remove the speed limitation as soon as possible and will use the phrase 'No speed restriction'. The phrase must not be interpreted as relieving the pilot of his responsibility for the observance of any noise abatement procedures which may include a speed/power limitation.

8  VFR Flights
  1. VFR flights in the Control Zone will be given routeing instructions and/or altitude restrictions in order to integrate VFR flights with other traffic.

  2. Pilots should anticipate routeing instructions via the Visual Reference Points detailed in paragraph 10 or the routes detailed in paragraph 11.

  3. Pilots of VFR flights are reminded of the requirement to remain in VMC at all times and to comply with the relevant parts of SERA and the Rules of the Air Regulations 2015, and must advise ATC if at any time they are unable to comply with the instructions issued.

  4. Helicopters: Whenever possible helicopter flights in the Edinburgh Control Zone will be cleared on direct routeings under VFR (or, when requested at night, on Special VFR clearance in accordance with the procedures for Special VFR flights)

9  Special VFR Clearance
  1. Clearance may be requested for Special VFR flight within the Edinburgh Control Zone and will be given whenever the traffic situation permits. These flights are subject to the general conditions laid down for Special VFR flights (ENR 1.2 refers).

  2. Special VFR clearance will include routeing and maximum altitude instructions and may not necessarily be confined to the Entry/Exit Lanes detailed at paragraph 11.

  3. Pilots are reminded that they must at all times when operating on Special VFR clearance, remain clear of cloud and in sight of the surface and in flight conditions which will enable them to determine their flight path and keep clear of obstacles. Due to the nature of the terrain in the vicinity of Edinburgh Airport radar vectoring will not normally be applied to aircraft operating on Special VFR clearance.

  4. Pilots are reminded that a Special VFR clearance applies only to flight within the CTR and does not extend to flight within the surrounding Airspace of the Scottish Terminal Control Area.

  5. Special VFR clearance will not normally be granted for flights operating in VMC or for flights by aircraft exceeding 5700 KG MTWA.

10  Visual Reference Points (VRP)
  1. Details of VRPs are available in the consolidated 'Visual Reference Points List' published on the 'Digital Dataset' page of the NATS AIS website, www.nats.aero/ais.

11  Gliding Operations Kirknewton
  1. Gliding operations - Edinburgh CTR

    1. Gliding operations are carried out at RAF Kirknewton by 661 Volunteer Gliding Squadron (VGS). Activity is co-ordinated with ATC and gliders can be expected in the agreed Delegated Gliding Area.

    2. The RAF Kirknewton Delegated Gliding Area (DGA) is defined by the lateral limits:

      1. 555320N 0032415W – 555338N 0032053W (Ravelrig Road rail bridge between Balerno & Dalmahoy) – 555121N 0032048W (Western corner of Threipmuir Reservoir) – 554959N 0032545W (Eastern corner of Harperigg Reservoir) – 555211N 0032601W thence clockwise by an arc of a circle radius 1.3 NM centred on 555213N 0032401W to 555320N 0032415W.

      2. Up to 2500 FT AMSL, this is known as DGA-circuit.

      3. Up to 3700 FT AMSL, this is known as DGA-soaring.

    3. ATC may tactically manage traffic to avoid the area if appropriate.

    4. ATC will advise other aircraft of gliding activity as appropriate.

12  Entry/Exit Lanes
  1. To permit aircraft to operate to and from Edinburgh Airport in IMC but not under IFR the following entry/exit lanes have been established for use, under the conditions stated, as follows:

      1. a lane 3 NM wide, known as the Polmont Lane, with centre-line the M9 Motorway extending from Grangemouth (near the western boundary of the Edinburgh Control Zone) eastwards, via the Polmont Roundabout, Linlithgow Loch and Philpstoun to a point at which it joins the Edinburgh Aerodrome Traffic Zone;

      2. a lane 3 NM wide, known as the Kelty Lane, with centre-line the M90 Motorway extending from Kelty (near the northern boundary of the Edinburgh Control Zone) southwards to M90 Junc 1B, then with the centre-line the A9000 across the Forth Road Bridge to M90 Junc 1, then with the centre-line the M90 Motorway to a point at which it joins the Edinburgh Aerodrome Traffic Zone;

    1. use of the lanes is subject to clearance being obtained from ATC Edinburgh, irrespective of prevailing weather conditions. This clearance is to be obtained by non-radio equipped aircraft before take-off and by radio equipped aircraft before entering the lane;

    2. aircraft using the lanes must remain clear of cloud and in sight of the ground or water, not above 2000 FT (Edinburgh QNH), and in flight visibility of not less than 3 KM;

    3. an aircraft using a lane shall keep the centre-line on its left, unless otherwise instructed by ATC for separation purposes. In these circumstances ATC will pass traffic information to the aircraft concerned;

    4. pilots of aircraft are responsible for maintaining adequate clearance from the ground or other obstacles.

  2. Additionally, to permit the effective integration of traffic, flights operating in VMC and under VFR may be required by ATC to follow these routes as detailed in paragraph 8.
