Use of this airport by aircraft not able to communicate with ATC by radio is strictly PPR.
Aircraft that do not require the use of a licensed aerodrome and that wish to operate outwith the notified aerodrome hours of operation must comply with Highlands and Islands Airports Limited Out of Hours Indemnity Scheme. Details of the scheme and an application form can be obtained from the HIAL website or HIAL Tel: 01667-462445.
Use of Stornoway aerodrome is subject to standard Terms and Conditions of Use, which can be requested from the aerodrome.
High visibility clothing is to be worn when airside.
Pilots are advised that the width of the Alpha and Charlie taxiways on the East side of the aerodrome is 15 M.
Pilots are reminded that aircraft using the Main Apron will normally be marshalled. Caution should be exercised when manoeuvring due to the proximity of lighting pylons at the southern edge of the Main apron.
Pilots should exercise caution when operating in the area north and south of the hangar because of vehicular activity which is not subject to ground movement control.
All parking is normally under the direction of the marshaller.
The taxiway to the north of Echo 2 is unusable.
To permit crossing of the southern taxiway by pedestrians and non-radio equipped vehicles, a crossing is established between Taxiway Charlie and the Control Tower Building. During the notified hours of ATC/AFIS this crossing is controlled by traffic lights. The traffic light signal is located above the front door of the Control Tower. Pedestrians and vehicles must not cross the taxiway, in either direction, when this light is red. Outwith the notified hours of ATC/AFIS the traffic light is OFF, however, pedestrians/vehicles must exercise extreme caution as aircraft operating out of hours may be using the taxiway. This crossing is not available during LVP operations, ATC will advise.
Marshalling will be provided at the Marshaller's discretion when the wind speed is in excess of 40 KT.
When manoeuvring on Runway 18/36 aircraft must not proceed beyond the runway stopend lights. The area beyond is unfit for normal movement of aircraft and is marked as such by yellow chevrons.
Access from the Lower Apron is restricted to the adjacent exit gate and to the ATC building. A walkway (painted green) with painted footprints and signage will guide all Lower Apron users to either the ATC Control Tower building or the exit gate. Crossing the active taxiway to the ATC Control Tower building is controlled by traffic lights situated above the entry door of the Control Tower building. Airside access to the Terminal building from either the Lower Apron or ATC is strictly prohibited and the exit gate adjacent to the Lower Apron must always be used.To open the pedestrian gate, first press the electrical release switch on the grey cabinet to the left of the gate, then twist the opening handle. Ensure that the gate is securely closed after you pass through. Be advised the access gate is electronically controlled, so when you require access airside you will have to visit the Security Office in the main Terminal who will issue you with a Temporary Airside Pass (don’t forget to have your photo ID and hi-visibility jacket with you), they will then escort you airside.Once airside, hangar access is by request to the marshaller or telephone 01851-707415 (ATC).
High ground to north and west rising to 1000 FT within 7 NM.
Pilots are reminded that Taxiway Alpha, between main apron Gate 10 and the Gaydon hangar, is used regularly by vehicular traffic under the control of ATS. Vehicles using this taxiway may be seen by taxiing aircraft using the Apron Taxiway, Taxiway Bravo and Taxiway Charlie.
Landing fees shall be issued via invoice. Billing address details will be obtained from PPR forms.
Not applicable
No ground signals except light signals.
Flocks of geese present in fields adjacent to the aerodrome, all year round.
Birds can be expected on all approaches. Dedicated bird patrols during operational hours under control of ATS. Increased risk from birds at low tide on approach to Runway 18.
Minimum approach angles of 3° (indicated by the PAPI) must be strictly adhered to when using Runway 36 due to vehicles on road within undershoot.
Grass areas are soft and unsafe. Poor load bearing characteristics may be found on runway/taxiway strips and the area adjacent to the apron. Only marked taxiways are to be used. Pilots are warned to exercise caution whilst taxiing between the Main Apron and Alpha 3 as this portion of taxiway includes a compound curve and taxiway centre-line markings must be followed to ensure clearance distances from pavement edge are maintained.
A Coastguard helicopter operates from Stornoway and will be given appropriate priority over other traffic when operating on search and rescue duties. These activities may take place throughout the 24 hour period and pilots using out of hours permission at Stornoway should therefore exercise appropriate caution.
Pilots are reminded that they should not cross the Runway 18 threshold when lining up for departure. The area beyond the Runway 18 threshold and marked with chevrons is for the protection of the Runway 36 Localiser monitor antenna (Lit).
Light helicopters are not required to use the runways and may arrive depart from the appropriate apron.
Rotors running refuel is not permitted.
Pilots of helicopters engaged in Public Transport Operations are required to provide ATS an ETA/ETD giving at least 10 minutes notice. This may be done via telephone or RTF.
Pilots are reminded that routine helicopter winching training takes place on the Gaydon South Apron and the Gaydon North Apron. S92 helicopters may hover, up to a max of 300 FT AGL with the winch cable attached to a ground weight. These operations are separated for wake turbulence purposes from Runways 18/36 and 06/24. Traffic Information on these operations will be passed by ATS.
Runway 06/24 is not available for night landings but is available for use by Air Ambulance and SAR ops on request.
Runway departure restriction for aircraft requiring the use of a licensed aerodrome:
Runway 18/36 . Except where an AOC holder has a less restrictive State authorised take-off minima, departures in RVR conditions of less than 400 M are not permitted;
Runway 06/24 . Except where an AOC holder has a less restrictive State authorised take-off minima, departures when the reported MET visibility is 800 M or less are not permitted.
Runway 06/24 is not available for landing or take-off outside of aerodrome opening hours. Aircraft operating outside aerodrome opening hours in accordance with HIAL's Out of Hours Indemnity Scheme must exercise caution when taxiing on the Charlie, Bravo and Alpha Taxiways as vehicles may be operating on those routes.

Instrument Approach Procedures (IAP) for this aerodrome are established outside controlled airspace. See ENR 1.5.
Due to the proximity of the Shanwick Oceanic boundary to Stornoway, pilots must consider timescales for submitting an ’RCL’. Refer to ENR 2.2, paragraph 3.8.2 for details.
Circuit directions: Runways 18 and 24 - LH; Runways 06 and 36 - RH. Unless otherwise instructed by ATC.
During notified ATC hours of Service, a procedural service will routinely be applied to IFR flights. Pilots will be expected to accept Level, Radial, Track and Time allocations that may require flight in IMC. A basic service will be routinely applied to VFR flights. A pilot may request another service if considered more appropriate.
Outside notified ATC hours of service, a basic service will always be applied to SAR and ambulance flights by an AFISO.
The pilot of a VFR flight experiencing communications failure should join overhead at 2000 FT and descend into the circuit pattern for the runway in use watching for light signals from the Tower all the while. Should a light signal not be forthcoming on turning onto final approach, the pilot should level off at not below 450 FT and fly parallel to the runway, and adjacent to the Tower, to attract attention.
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.
Aircraft operators are responsible for the searching of any aircraft parked either overnight or within the demarcated area prior to departure.
