Pilots are to 'book-out' by telephoning ATC.
Traffic flow management of inbound, outbound and local aircraft may be applied without notice.
Aircraft with tail skids will not be permitted to use the aerodrome without first having been fitted with some form of wheel to prevent surface damage.
The wearing of high visibility clothing is mandatory by all personnel working on airside areas.
Fixed Electrical Ground Power must be used wherever available and serviceable. Use of GPU and APU should be limited to minimise environmental impact.
Pilots of international arriving or departing GA aircraft are responsible for presenting their passengers to UK Border Force. Transport to and from the UK Border should be arranged with the Handling Agent.
Aprons A & B are subject to security restrictions and searches.
Holding positions are indicated at night by a row of red lights across the taxiway. Aircraft are not permitted to proceed on to the runway unless these lights have been extinguished or permission has been given by ATC.
To prevent soil erosion by jet blast, an area contiguous with the beginning of Runway 30 has been concreted. This area is not load bearing and aircraft should not be taxied across it during line up for take-off. A hatched area separates this area from the runway.
ATC taxiing instructions should be strictly observed.
Link November has a reduced width of 16 M and is only available for aircraft up to and including Code B size.
Only marked taxiways to be used.
The arrangement of the Terminal apron, piers, stand numbers, nose wheel guide lines and alignment bars are shown at AD 2-EGPK-2-2.
The taxiway Route to/from Spirit Aero systems and HMS Gannet is via Link Tango.
Holding Point M is available to aircraft up to code F. During hours of darkness and low visibility all aircraft must use a follow me vehicle.
The first 100 M of paved surface from Runway 30 threshold has been marked to provide 50 M width for large aircraft turning. All turns must be executed in a clockwise direction. Concrete outside the runway edge markings is unfit for the movement of aircraft. Any pilot who may require marshaller assistance is to advise ATC before taxi.
Commanders of wide-bodied aircraft are reminded that minimum power only should be applied on Taxiway Juliet, particularly when entering the runway via holding point Juliet.
Aircraft that require starting by manual swinging of propellers are only permitted to undertake engine starting as a two person operation. An assistant familiar with manual swinging of propellers must be present in addition to the pilot in command and both persons must carry out the operation in a safe manner.
Link R1 is a dual holding point. Aircraft will be held parallel to Runway 30, when instructed by ATC access is via Runway 20.
Due to limited line of sight of certain parts of the manoeuvring area, such as Aprons A, B, G & H and the Southwestern section of Taxiway S south of holding point W, ATC may request additional position reports. Pilots should maintain a good lookout in these areas.
Taxiway R east of holding point R1 to holding point R2 has reduced separation of 167 M from Runway 12/30 centreline. ATC will hold aircraft at holding point R2 as required in accordance with local procedures.
Not Applicable
Except for light signals, ground signals are not displayed.
Aircraft carrying out circuits on Runway 02/20 are warned of rising ground to the Northeast.
Pilots are advised that bird numbers have been assessed as ‘severe’ during migratory periods (Oct/Nov and Mar/Apr). During Spring and Autumn, bird concentrations may be present on surrounding agricultural land. Active dispersal methods are employed within the Airport's boundaries. This will be the subject of a NOTAM.
Because of the extreme width of the concrete/asphalt surface forming Runway 12/30 (92 M) paved shoulders extend 23 M beyond each side of the runway. In certain conditions (poor visibility and at night) the edge lights may be mistaken for the centre-line (albeit the edge lights are raised and the centre-line lights are flush mounted). Pilots of departing aircraft should exercise extreme caution when lining up on the centre-line of the runway in such circumstances.
When visibility is less than 800 M, Low Visibility Procedures will be applied. Pilots will be informed by RTF or ATIS. Pilots are advised that these procedures can cause delays for inbound and outbound traffic.
When RVR is less than 600 M, only one aircraft movement is permitted at a time on the manoeuvring area.
The maximum reportable RVR value for Runway 30 is 1400 M.
Caution Runway Incursion Prevention. Dual runway hold at Runway 02/20. Pilots are to adhere to ATC instructions / information and relevant ground markings at all times. See Aerodrome charts for hotspot location.
Grass Cutting - Consequent upon the implementation of the long grass programme relating to the control of birds, the following will be introduced:
Grass cutting may take place on a daily basis between April and October inclusive within the strip enclosing Runways 12/30 and 02/20.
Deer hazard, aircrews to report any sightings to ATC.
Low level mechanical turbulence due to terrain and the presence of buildings on short final for all runways can affect the wind, resulting in the reported wind speed sometimes being lower than that experienced by pilots.
Civil helicopters operating to Prestwick will normally be allocated to Apron G or H. Such helicopters are to operate to/from Aprons G and H by approaching to/from the aiming point marked on Runway 12/30 between Links M and N.
Military helicopters may operate directly to and from Apron C, subject to ATC permission.
At ATC discretion, the thresholds of Runways 12/30 and 02/20 may also be used as aiming points.
Helicopters may ‘air’ or ‘ground’ taxi between the aiming point and the designated parking area, including the military parking circles. Due to the surface condition of Apron C, only marked designated taxiway routes should be used.
During winter conditions when the runway is contaminated, estimated braking action will be provided in accordance with the CAA Estimated Braking Action Table.
Aircraft training slots are to be requested from ATC: 01292-511107.
The use of the airport for circuit and instrument training purposes is subject to the prior arrangement with ATC operations, Tel: 01292-511107.
ATC must be advised of any cancellations. Any training slot delayed by 30 minutes or more will be deemed to have been cancelled and the slot re-negotiated.
Failure to cancel a booked slot may result in cancellation charges.
The filing of a flight plan for a training slot does not imply acceptance.
Asymmetric flight must not be carried out without ATC permission.
From 1900-0800 (1800-0700) jet circuit training is not available due to noise abatement. Non jet aircraft may be accepted subject to PPR.
No training will be accepted on Tuesdays between 0800-1200 (0700-1100) due to essential airfield maintenance.
Operators of all aircraft using the airport should ensure that at all times their aircraft conform to the noise abatement techniques laid down for that type of aircraft and that operations are conducted in a manner calculated to cause the least disturbance practicable in areas surrounding the aerodrome.
These requirements may at any time be departed from, to the extent necessary, for avoiding immediate danger and for complying with the instructions of ATC.
All aircraft using the aerodrome shall maintain as high an altitude as practicable.
Aircraft using the ILS in IMC or VMC shall not descend below 2000 FT before intercepting the glidepath unless directed by radar, nor thereafter fly below it. An Aircraft approaching without assistance from ILS or radar shall follow a descent path which will not result in its being lower than the approach path which would be followed by an aircraft using the ILS glidepath.
All airline crew training circuits shall be flown at a height of at least 1500 FT AAL. In other respects training aircraft shall comply with the procedures and routeings detailed in this notice together with procedures laid down by GPA Ltd with regard to training circuits.
Noise from ground running of aircraft engines is controlled in accordance with instructions issued by GPA Ltd.
The Noise Preferential Routes (NPR) specified below are compatible with ATC requirements and shall apply in both IMC and VMC.
The tracks are to be flown by all departing jet aircraft and by all other aircraft of more than 12,500 KG MTWA unless otherwise instructed by ATC or unless deviations are required in the interests of safety.

Inbound aircraft other than from the Airways Route Structure:
Aircraft wishing to enter the CTR or CTA under IFR direct from the FIR must observe the normal procedure for joining Controlled Airspace.
Pilots inbound to Prestwick under VFR must contact Prestwick Approach Control and request clearance to enter the Prestwick CTR/CTA at least 10 minutes before reaching the CTR/CTA boundary. VFR and Special VFR aircraft will usually be instructed to route either via one of the designated VFR routes or via Visual Reference Points (see paragraphs 5 to 8).
Aircraft routing inbound from other Scottish TMA airfields will be cleared the PIK NDB not below the MSA.
Approach Procedures with Radar Control
When Prestwick 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.
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.
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.
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.
Speed Control may be applied on a tactical basis to aircraft whilst radar sequencing is in progress. Aircraft unable to comply with requested speeds should inform the radar controller 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.
In the event of a radar failure, new instructions will be issued to aircraft under Radar Control and the procedures as defined for approach without Radar Control will be put in effect.
Approach Procedures without Radar Control
When inbound traffic is not being sequenced by radar, aircraft will normally be cleared to either TRN VOR, SUMIN REP or PIK NDB in order to carry out an Instrument Approach Procedure appropriate to the landing direction.
In the event of complete radio communication failure, pilots are to adopt the appropriate national basic procedures notified at ENR 1.1.3.
When leaving the CTR in accordance with national basic procedures, aircraft are to track 180° TRUE from the PIK NDB at 4000 FT ALT until clear of the Prestwick CTR Boundary.
Standard Instrument Departures from Prestwick are as follows (see AD 2-EGPK-6-1/2):
P600 via TRN
N560 via TRN to GOW
L602 via TRN to GOW
UL612 North via TRN to GOW

N562 departing Runway 30, DAUNT Z246 HERON
N562 departing Runway 12, AKODA Z247 HERON
North Atlantic Departures.
Due to the proximity of the Shanwick Oceanic boundary to Prestwick, pilots of jet aircraft planned to enter Shanwick airspace at GOMUP and ETILO should contact Shanwick CDO prior to departure. On all other oceanic routes an 'RCL' can be submitted after the aircraft is airborne. ENR 2.2, paragraph 3.8.2 refers.
When TRA 008 (ENR 5.2 and ENR 6-13) is active, aircraft entering Shanwick/Reykjavik airspace at ETILO, ERAKA, ADODO, BALIX, ORTAV, ATSIX, LUSEN or RATSU should file via TRN GOW.
A speed limitation of 250 KT applies to all departures whilst flying below FL 100 except when a request has been approved and exceptional circumstances require its removal.
VFR flights in the Control Zone will be given routing instructions and/or altitude restrictions in order to integrate VFR flights with other traffic.
Pilots should anticipate routing instructions via the routes detailed in paragraph 7 or the Visual Reference Points detailed in paragraph 9.
Pilots of VFR flights are required to remain in VMC at all times and to comply with the relevant Rules of the Air Regulations 2015, and must advise ATC if at any times they are unable to comply with the instructions given.
Clearance may be requested for Special VFR flight in IMC or at night within the Prestwick Control Zone and will be given whenever the traffic situation permits. These flights are subject to the general provisions laid down for Special VFR flights.
Special VFR clearances will include routing and maximum altitude instructions and may not necessarily be confined to the entry/exit lanes detailed at paragraph 7. Pilots holding a Private Pilots Licence (Aeroplanes) are reminded of the visibility requirements of Special VFR flights laid down in Schedule 7 of the Air Navigation Order 2009 and the related notification at ENR 1-4-6 note 4, which may require them to request routing via the notified Entry/Exit Lanes.
Pilots are reminded that they must at all times, when operating on a 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 Prestwick Airport, radar vectoring will not normally be applied to aircraft operating in accordance with a Special VFR clearance.
Pilots are reminded that a Special VFR clearance applies only to flight within the Prestwick Control Zone and does not extend to flight within the surrounding airspace of the Prestwick Control Area or Scottish Terminal Control Area.
Special VFR clearances will not normally be granted for flights operating in VMC or for flights by aircraft exceeding 5700 KG MTWA.
The following entry/exit lanes are notified for the purposes of Schedule 7 of the Air Navigation Order 2009, Part A, Private Pilots Licence (Aeroplanes), sub-para 2 (c) (ii) to permit aircraft to operate to and from Prestwick Airport in IMC under the conditions stated, as follows:
A lane 3 NM wide, with centre-line from Irvine Harbour VRP (a point on the northern Prestwick CTR boundary), thence southeast along the coast to Barassie, then along the railway line to the point at which it joins the Prestwick Aerodrome Traffic Zone;
A lane 3 NM wide, with centre-line from Doonfoot (Millennium Bridge) VRP (a point on the southern Prestwick CTR boundary), thence northeast along the coast to the point at which it joins the Prestwick Aerodrome Traffic Zone.
Use of the lanes is subject to clearance by Prestwick ATC and the carriage of the Prestwick Approach Control frequency.
Aircraft using the lanes must remain clear of cloud and in sight of the surface, not above 3000 FT (Prestwick QNH), and in flight visibility of not less than 3 KM.
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.
Pilots of aircraft are responsible for maintaining adequate clearance from the surface or other obstacles.
Additionally, to permit the effective integration of traffic, flights operating under VFR may be required by ATC to follow these routes as detailed in paragraph 5.
Model aircraft operations take place at Auchens, 553453N 0043653W, up to 1000 FT AGL during daylight hours. Operations at Auchens above 400 FT AGL will be advised by ATC. For further information on operations at Auchens, contact 07828-160896.
Weight shift/flex wing microlights are not allowed to use the aerodrome unless in emergency. Limited numbers of three-axis microlights may be permitted with prior permission from the aerodrome operator.
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.
