LOCAL AERODROME REGULATIONS

No Aircraft shall take lock turn/ pivotal turn on the Runway to avoid pavement damage.


1. LOW VISIBILITY PROCEDURES 2. SCOPE Shillong Airport is certified ILS CAT I aerodrome with a prescribed landing minima of 550 m RVR for RWY 22. The DGCA CAR on All Weather Operations mandates establishment of Low Visibility Procedures for continuing operations below RVR values of 550 m. Accordingly Low Visibility Procedures (Only for Take-off up to (not less than) 400 m RVR) have been established at Shillong Airport to enhance and ensure safety during Low visibility/bad weather conditions. 3. DEFINITIONS 3.1 ILS Critical Area: An area of defined dimensions about the localizer and glide path antennas where aircraft and vehicles are excluded during all ILS operations. The critical area is protected because the presence of vehicles / or aircraft inside its boundaries will cause unacceptable disturbance to the ILS signal-in-space. 3.2 ILS Sensitive Area: An area extending beyond the ILS critical area where the parking and/or movement of vehicles, including aircraft, are controlled to prevent the possibility of unacceptable interference to the ILS signal during ILS operations. The sensitive area Airports is protected to provide protection against interferences cause by large moving objects outside the critical area but still normally within the airfield boundary. 3.3 Low Visibility Procedures (LVP): Specific procedures applied at an aerodrome for the purpose of ensuring safe operations during Categories II and III approaches and/or low visibility take-offs. Note: as per para 5.3 of CAR on All Weather Operations, an operator shall not conduct Take-off with RVR/ Visibility less than standard CAT-I conditions of 550m RVR/800m Visibility unless low visibility procedure are enforced. 3.4 Low Visibility Take-Off (LVTO): A term used in relation to flight operations referring to a take-off on a runway where the RVR is less than 400m. 3.5 Manoeuvring Area: That part of an aerodrome to be used for the take-off, landing and taxiing of aircraft, excluding aprons. 3.6 Obstacle Free Zone: The airspace above the inner approach surface, inner transitional surface and balked landing surface and that portion of the strip bounded by these surfaces, which is not penetrated by any fixed obstacle other than of low mass and frangible mounting, required for air navigation purposes. 3.7 Runway Visual Range: The range over which the pilot of an aircraft on the centre line of a runway can see the runway surface markings or the lights delineating the runway or identifying its centre line. 3.8 Safeguarding Procedures: Safeguarding Procedures (SP) are instructions for relevant airport departments and airside operators to prepare ground services and facilities for low visibility operations, in order that when LVP are implemented all SP are complete and airport is configured for Low Visibility Procedures and Low Visibility Take-offs. 3.9 Missed approach procedure: The procedure to be followed if the approach cannot be continued. 3.10 Aerodrome Operating Minima: The limits of usability of an aerodrome for: i) take-off, expressed in terms of runway visual range and / or visibility and, if necessary, cloud conditions; ii) landing in 2 D instrument approach operations, expressed in terms of visibility and/or runway visual range; minimum descent altitude/height (MDA/H) and, if necessary, cloud conditions. iii) landing in 3D instrument approach operations, expressed in terms of visibility and/or runway visual range and decision altitude/height (DA/H) appropriate to the type and/or category of the operation.
3.11 Touchdown Zone: The portion of a runway, beyond the threshold, where it is intended landing aeroplanes first contact the runway. 3.12 Visibility: Visibility for aeronautical purposes is the greater of: i) the greatest distance at which a black object of suitable dimensions, situated near the ground, can be seen and recognized when observed against a bright background; ii) The greatest distance at which lights in the vicinity of 1000 candelas can be seen and identified against an unlit background. Note 1. -- The two distances have different values in air of a given extinction coefficient, and the latter b) varies with the background illumination. The former a) is represented by the meteorological optical range (MOR). Note 2. -- The definition applies to the observations of visibility in local routine and special reports, to the observations of prevailing and minimum visibility reported in METAR and SPECI and to the observations of ground visibility. 4.

LOW VISIBILITY PROCEDURES: 5.1 Regulations: CIVIL AVIATION REQUIREMENT SECTION 8 - AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS SERIES ‘C’ PART I ISSUE II, DATED 28TH OCTOBER 2022: An operator shall not conduct low visibility take-offs in less than 400 m RVR unless approved by DGCA. Operators may be authorized LVTO minima of up to 75m. Foreign operators, who are authorized by their State Regulatory Authority for LVTO, shall submit requisite documents to DGCA for approval of LVTO at Indian aerodromes. An Operator shall not conduct take-off with RVR/visibility less than standard Category I conditions of 550m RVR/800 m visibility unless low visibility procedures are enforced. 6. GENERAL: 6.1 Low Visibility Procedures (Only for Take-off up to (not less than) 400 m RVR) have been developed for Barapani Airport, Shillong to accommodate/permit departures in visibility/RVR less than 800M/550M (from RWY 04 beginning (runway served with RVR instrument). 6.2 The Low Visibility Procedure (LVP) incorporates safeguarding measures to mitigate runway incursions and defines operational restrictions to ensure safe Airside Operations taking into account the available Aerodrome facilities.
7. MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS 7.1 The following Aeronautical Ground lights and RVR equipment shall be serviceable to the required standard to support Low Visibility Procedures: i) Runway edge lights, ii) Runway end lights, iii) Runway Guard Lights (available on TWY ‘A’, TWY ‘B’&TWY ‘F’.) iv) Instrument RVR (Available for TDZ runway 04). v) Stand by Power supply to maintain switch over time of 1 Second for Runway Edge Light and Runway End Lights. This requirement can be met with the help of DG Set and/or UPS. Unserviceability of Aeronautical Ground Lights/ Equipment before Implementation of LVP Visibility Procedures will not be implemented when any of the light/equipment mentioned in para 7.1 above is un- serviceable or is not maintained as per the required standard.

Shillong Airport is certified ILS CAT I aerodrome with a prescribed landing minima of 550 m RVR for RWY 22.

The DGCA CAR on All Weather Operations mandates establishment of Low Visibility Procedures for continuing

operations below RVR values of 550 m. Accordingly Low Visibility Procedures (Only for Take-off up to (not

less than) 400 m RVR) have been established at Shillong Airport to enhance and ensure safety during Low

visibility/bad weather conditions.

3. DEFINITIONS

3.1 ILS Critical Area: An area of defined dimensions about the localizer and glide path antennas where aircraft and

vehicles are excluded during all ILS operations. The critical area is protected because the presence of vehicles /

or aircraft inside its boundaries will cause unacceptable disturbance to the ILS signal-in-space.

3.2 ILS Sensitive Area: An area extending beyond the ILS critical area where the parking and/or movement

of vehicles, including aircraft, are controlled to prevent the possibility of unacceptable interference to the ILS

signal during ILS operations. The sensitive area Airports is protected to provide protection against interferences

cause by large moving objects outside the critical area but still normally within the airfield boundary.

3.3 Low Visibility Procedures (LVP): Specific procedures applied at an aerodrome for the purpose of ensuring safe

operations during Categories II and III approaches and/or low visibility take-offs.

Note: as per para 5.3 of CAR on All Weather Operations, an operator shall not conduct Take-off with

RVR/ Visibility less than standard CAT-I conditions of 550m RVR/800m Visibility unless low visibility

procedure are enforced.

3.4 Low Visibility Take-Off (LVTO): A term used in relation to flight operations referring to a take-off on a runway

where the RVR is less than 400m.

3.5 Manoeuvring Area: That part of an aerodrome to be used for the take-off, landing and taxiing of aircraft,

excluding aprons.

3.6 Obstacle Free Zone: The airspace above the inner approach surface, inner transitional surface and balked

landing surface and that portion of the strip bounded by these surfaces, which is not penetrated by any fixed

obstacle other than of low mass and frangible mounting, required for air navigation purposes.

3.7 Runway Visual Range: The range over which the pilot of an aircraft on the centre line of a runway can see the

runway surface markings or the lights delineating the runway or identifying its centre line.

3.8 Safeguarding Procedures: Safeguarding Procedures (SP) are instructions for relevant airport departments and

airside operators to prepare ground services and facilities for low visibility operations, in order that when LVP

are implemented all SP are complete and airport is configured for Low Visibility Procedures and Low Visibility

Take-offs.

3.9 Missed approach procedure: The procedure to be followed if the approach cannot be continued.

3.10 Aerodrome Operating Minima: The limits of usability of an aerodrome for:

i) take-off, expressed in terms of runway visual range and / or visibility and, if necessary, cloud conditions;

ii) landing in 2 D instrument approach operations, expressed in terms of visibility and/or runway visual range;

minimum descent altitude/height (MDA/H) and, if necessary, cloud conditions.

iii) landing in 3D instrument approach operations, expressed in terms of visibility and/or runway visual range and

decision altitude/height (DA/H) appropriate to the type and/or category of the operation.

3.11 Touchdown Zone: The portion of a runway, beyond the threshold, where it is intended landing aeroplanes first contact

the runway.

3.12 Visibility: Visibility for aeronautical purposes is the greater of:

i) the greatest distance at which a black object of suitable dimensions, situated near the ground, can be seen and recognized

when observed against a bright background;

ii) The greatest distance at which lights in the vicinity of 1000 candelas can be seen

and identified against an unlit background.

Note 1. -- The two distances have different values in air of a given extinction coefficient, and the latter b) varies with the

background illumination. The former a) is represented by the meteorological optical range (MOR).

Note 2. -- The definition applies to the observations of visibility in local routine and special reports, to the observations

of prevailing and minimum visibility reported in METAR and SPECI and to the observations of ground visibility.
