Under the terms of the Anti-Terrorism and Crime Act 2003, pilots and passengers of private or charter aircraft who have come from or are going to the British Isles, must when requested to do so, make themselves available to be spoken to by an examining officer. In relation to all such flights, the pilot must fully complete a General Aviation Report. Further details can be found here:- General Aviation website:- https://www.gov.im/categories/tax-vat-and-your-money/customs-and-excise/general-aviation/.
Outside published hours of availability, use of the airport is subject to prior permission from the Airport Duty Manager.
All parking areas within the critical part of the aerodrome are designated as Customs Area. It shall be the responsibility of the commander of any aircraft that is required to be subjected to Customs inspection to inform ATC at the earliest opportunity.
High visibility clothing must be worn on the aprons and manoeuvring area at all times. Health and Safety requirements in respect of ear protection must be observed and are the responsibility of the individuals concerned.
Due to physical constraints of the apron design, pilots must follow the ground markings at all times.
Apron floodlighting is 7 M from the pavement edge and CCTV masts are 4 M from the pavement edge on the west apron. Pilots of aircraft should exercise caution in respect of wing tip clearance. The services of a marshaller are available on request.
Class 2 compass calibration base on Runway 21 is only suitable for aircraft with magnetic sensors which are at least five feet above ground. Use governed by prior permission through ATC.
Movement to/from Area W at night via D1 only.
No taxi lane is available between the east and west aprons. Taxiing through stands 7 & 8 / 8 & 7 is prohibited unless specifically authorised.
Isle of Man Airport is not equipped with CAT II/III procedures, however Low Visibility Procedures are used to protect CAT I operations.
Except for light signals ground signals shall not be displayed.
Increased bird activity due to coastal location. Bird scaring including the use of pyrotechnics, lethal control and lasers used regularly on the aerodrome.
A known windshear hazard exists on short final for Runway 08 when the wind is from the southeast and pilots should adopt appropriate operating procedures. During strong wind conditions, turbulence may be expected on the approach to, or climb out from, any runway.
Take-off and landing will be restricted to paved surfaces only.
Pilots of helicopters should note the presence of a 10 M anemometer mast in the Met square adjacent to the apron area and exercise due caution when manoeuvring prior to arrival or departure.
The presence of high ground to the north of Runway 08/26 centre-line may trigger GPWS alerts if aircraft adopt high rate of descent and/or fast speed profiles in this sector.
Holding position D1 is situated close to the exit from area Whiskey and coincident with the start of the 26 ILS GP critical area. Pilots should exercise extreme caution in observing and complying with holding position D1 to ensure they do not infringe Runway 26 and the GP critical area.
Runway 21 - CAUTION - Departing crew should be aware that kite surfing in the vicinity of the climb out is possible during daylight hours.
Holding position A9 is situated close to the exit of Area Victor. Pilots should exercise caution in observing and complying with holding position A9 to ensure they do not infringe Runway 08.
Helicopters are to arrive and depart using the runways as no specified helicopter landing areas are defined.
Simulated engine failures are not permitted on departure from Runway 26.
Pilots should not descend below the indicated PAPI glide path whilst landing on any runway, and the following conditions should be noted:
Due to the presence of high ground to the left of the approach for Runway 21, pilots must establish on the runway centre-line before descending on the PAPI glide path.
Due to the presence of an uncontrolled public road in the vicinity of the undershoot area of Runway 03, approaches to this runway are not permitted if the PAPIs are out of service.
The noise abatement procedures as detailed at AD 2.21 should be followed.
All training flights require approval from ATC.
Pilots of aircraft using the airport shall ensure at all times that aircraft are operated in a manner calculated to cause the least disturbance practicable in areas surrounding the airport, particularly near Castletown and Ballasalla.
All propeller driven aircraft must climb straight ahead to 500 FT and must have passed the airport boundary before commencing any turn.
All jet aircraft must climb straight ahead to 1000 FT before commencing any turn.
All departing aircraft from Runway 26 shall track the extended centre-line until a range of 3 NM or less from IOM DME before commencing any turn. Aircraft unable to receive DME shall climb straight ahead for 2 minutes from commencement of their take off run before commencing any turn. This procedure may only be departed from when authorised by ATC.
When approaching to land on any Runway all aircraft shall intercept the extended runway centre-line at a minimum range of 2 NM and shall not descend below the PAPI indicated approach.
Any of these procedures may be departed from to the extent necessary for the avoidance of immediate danger.
Isle of Man Airspace is subject to Isle of Man Civil Aviation Legislation, details of which are notified at GEN 1-6-6. Pilots requiring Exemptions or Permissions under the Air Navigation Order, Rules of the Air Regulations 2015 or Standardised European Rules of the Air, should contact the Isle of Man Director of Civil Aviation on 01624-682374.
All flights regardless of weather conditions, are required to obtain a clearance from ATC prior to entering the CTR/CTA.
All IFR flights within the Isle of Man CTR/CTA must fulfil the requirements for Class D Airspace appropriate to existing weather conditions.
Special VFR clearances within the CTR/CTA, in IMC or at night, may be issued subject to traffic conditions and limitations by ATC.
As extensions to airport hours are frequent, pilots intending to transit the Isle of Man CTR/CTA outside airport published hours are strongly advised to contact Ronaldsway Approach before entering the CTR/CTA.
In the event of failure of remote transmitters/receivers, radio communications to the north of the aerodrome below 3000 FT may be restricted and ATC services reduced accordingly. Pilots should ensure that they do not enter the CTR/CTA without ATC clearance. In the event of difficulty in establishing communication, a Flight Information Service may be available from Scottish Information on frequency 119.875 MHz.
Pilots may, upon request, be cleared to self-position directly to final approach for the ILS/DME approach to Runway 08 or Runway 26. Pilots are warned that, in order to maintain adequate terrain clearance, descent will not be issued below 3200 FT QNH if arriving from the north-east sector or in any event below 3000 FT QNH until established on the localiser. Pilots are responsible for arranging their flight to intercept the localiser and glidepath at an appropriate range.

‡ Unless otherwise instructed by ATC, aircraft on the appropriate routes must establish on track by MIKEL/SLYDA.
In the event of complete communication failure in an aircraft, the pilot will adopt the appropriate procedures notified at ENR 1.1.3 paragraph 4.2.2 to 4.2.4 inclusive, with the following exceptions:
When complete communication failure occurs in an aircraft before ETA or before EAT, when this has been received and acknowledged, the aircraft will:
fly to the RWY NDB holding point;
hold at the last assigned level until the last acknowledged ETA plus 10 minutes or EAT when this has been received and acknowledged; or, if radio failure occurs after an aircraft has reported over the runway NDB, hold at the last assigned level until ATA plus 10 minutes, or 10 minutes after the last acknowledged communications with ATC whichever is the later;
then commence descent for landing in accordance with the procedures notified at ENR 1.1.3, paragraph 4.2.2 to 4.2.4 and effect a landing within 30 minutes (or later if able to approach and land visually).
Aircraft that are instructed by ATC to hold at IOM, or KELLY, will in the event of complete communication failure:
when an Onward Clearance Time has been received and acknowledged, leave IOM, or KELLY at that time at the last assigned level and proceed to the RWY NDB, then carry out the procedures above;
when ‘Delay Not Determined’ has been transmitted by ATC, the aircraft should not attempt to land at Isle of Man aerodrome and should divert to the alternate destination specified in the current flight plan or other suitable airfield.
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.
