EINN AD 2.20 LOCAL Aerodrome REGULATIONS
Runway 06/24 180 Degree turns by Code C and D aircraft are permitted on condition that the aircraft is turned at a low constant speed (5 to 8 Kts) with minimal thrust to avoid the inboard main landing gear wheel becoming stationary (spot turns must be avoided). 180 Degree turns by Code E and F aircraft are permitted only at runway ends and must follow the marked taxi line and use the minimum speed necessary to complete the turning manoeuvre.
| Location | Situation | Restriction |
|---|---|---|
| East Apron | All Operations | Movement between East Apron from intersection of Taxiway D1 and Hanger 20 or vice versa is restricted to aircraft under power with a wingspan less than 36m (Code C) All other aircraft are to be towed, contact airport operations in advance. |
| Twy C | All Operations | Restricted to daylight hours only and aircraft with wingspan less than 36m.No left turn permitted from TWY C onto TWY D2.No right turn permitted from TWY D2 (southbound) onto TWY C |
Marshalling Service is mandatory for all arriving aircraft intending to park on either the West, Central or East Aprons. Marshalling Service is otherwise available on request from the Airport Operations Office
Tel:+ 353 61 712 240
or
Tel:+ 353 61 712 241
Use of the Marshalling Service does not imply the necessity to avail of full handling services.
The datum from which the reduced declared distances on Runway 06/24 are measured is the intersection of the extended downwind edge of the specific taxiway with the runway edge, projected perpendicular to the runway centreline.
EINN AD 2.21 NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES
Aircraft operators shall ensure, at all times that aircraft are operated in a manner calculated to cause the least disturbance practicable in areas surrounding the airport.
EINN AD 2.22 FLIGHT PROCEDURES
Protected airspace is provided for Holding Areas in accordance with the criteria contained in PANS –OPS ICAO Doc 8168, Volume II to facilitate navigation using VOR, NDB and DME navigation aids.
SIDs and STARs for RWY24 and RWY06 have been developed in accordance with ICAO Doc 8168 (PANS OPS) and comply with EUROCONTROL guidelines for the design of Terminal Procedures for Area Navigation.
The supporting navigation infrastructure includes the choice of DME/DME, GNSS, VOR/DME (for reversionary navigation purposes) and INS/IRS as permitted by the Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM) and/or approved by the appropriate regulatory authority.
Use of DME/DME may not be available below about 6000ft where terrain may obstruct line of sight with the DME infrastructure.
Operators which have obtained operational and airworthiness approval, from their regulatory authority, may operate the RNAV SID and STAR procedures in accordance with the conditions of approval including
- P-RNAV certificated aircraft;
- B-RNAV certificated aircraft only above MSA;
Climb to MSA on the initial segments of the RNAV SID may be conducted using conventional navigation.
If the RNAV equipment fails, or navigation accuracy of +1 NM can not be maintained, inform ATC as soon as possible. Radar vectoring will be provided.
Phraseology used will be as provided in the European Regional Supplementary Procedures (ICAO Doc 7030) and outlined in EUROCONTROL Guidance material for RNAV SID and STAR.
Examples of phraseology for ATC are:
{CALLSIGN} CLEARED {STAR designator} ARRIVAL, RUNWAY {designator}.
Note: On such a clearance flight crew shall continue on route until reaching start point of the STAR.
{CALLSIGN} ADVISE IF ABLE {designator} DEPARTURE [or ARRIVAL].
If ATC are unable to issue a requested SID or STAR:
{CALLSIGN} UNABLE TO ISSUE (designator) DEPARTURE [or ARRIVAL] DUE [Reason]
Examples of pilot phraseology in the event of being unable to accept SID or STAR
UNABLE (designator) DEPARTURE [or ARRIVAL] DUE TO RNAV TYPE.
UNABLE RNAV DUE EQUIPMENT
Visual manoeuvring (circling) approaches are permissible, on request, to all runways.
Speed Restrictions
| General | Routeing to Holds | Initial Segment | Final Approach | REMARKS |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Below FL100, Max IAS 250KT | At DERAG and ELPOM, Max IAS 220KT | Max IAS 210KT | Recommended IAS 160 KT from FAF to OM |
|
Arriving Aircraft capable of flying STAR will normally be cleared on a STAR appropriate to the route by ATC. On occasions ATC may radar vector aircraft for arrival (Due traffic or technical reasons).
Standard Arrivals Routes used in the Shannon CTA are based on Holding Patterns at DERAG and ELPOM.
In order to expedite the flow of traffic, aircraft may be cleared on STAR, or may receive radar vectors on to final approach track from the hold or earlier on the Standard Arrival Route.
Pilots should plan their flight profile in such a manner as to be able to achieve the Minimum Holding Level at the appropriate hold.
Actual descent clearance will be as directed by ATC.
Aircraft experiencing communications failure in the Shannon CTR/CTA shall set transponder code A7600 and comply with standard ICAO procedures.
Supplemented by the following:
Traffic cleared on STAR
Aircraft cleared on a STAR and experiencing a Communications failure shall follow the route of the STAR at the last cleared level or altitude. On reaching the appropriate hold fix, descend to 3000ft and complete the instrument approach procedure appropriate to the Runway in use.
Traffic Radar vectored to final approach
Aircraft being radar vectored to final approach should join, in the most expeditious manner, and complete the Instrument Approach procedure appropriate to the Runway in use.
If unable to comply with above, or uncertain of position, climb to 3000ft QNH, proceed in the most expeditious manner to the hold appropriate to the Runway in use and complete the Instrument Approach Procedure appropriate to the Runway in Use
Aircraft capable of complying with Standard Instrument Departures will proceed in accordance with the SID.
If an aircraft is unable to comply with Standard Instrument Departure the phraseology “Unable to comply with {departure} due {reasons}”
Pilots who cannot comply with Standard Instrument Departures shall advise ATC in good time using the phraseology “Unable to comply with {departure} due {reasons}, so that alternative clearances can be issued.
Aircraft subject to an OMNI Directional Departures instruction from RWY 06 and RWY 24 climb straight ahead to 5000ft, then depart on track as cleared by ATC, maintain a minimum climb gradient of 6.6% for ATM (400ft/NM) (minimum 3.7% for obstacle clearance). CAUTION: Close-in obstacles (Terrain and Trees) exist.
Aircraft experiencing communications failure in Shannon CTA/CTR shall set transponder code A7600 and comply with the following procedures:
RFL below FL080: Departing traffic cleared by ATC to a level/altitude below the RFL, shall comply with Communication failure procedures as outlined in ICAO Annex 2.
RFL FL080 or above: Departing traffic cleared by ATC to a level or altitude below FL080 shall maintain the cleared level for a period of three minutes following the time the altitude/level is reached and thereafter adjust level and speed in accordance with filed flight plan.
Departing Traffic experiencing a communications failure above FL080 shall comply with communications failure procedures as outlined in ICAO Annex 2
- Departing aircraft shall normally use TWY’s D1 and D2.
- Arriving aircraft shall normally use TWY A.
