Chapter 2: Air Traffic Control Unit ~~Air Traffic Control Units are specialized in providing one of the Air Traffic Control Services but also responsible for Flight Information Service and Alerting Service to pilots.~~
FLIGHT INFORMATION SERVICE ~~ is a service provided for the purpose of giving advice and information useful for the safe and efficient conduct of flights. ~~ Example: • Meteorological information • Information on aerodromes • Information on possible hazards to flight * (ICAO Annex 2: Rules of the Air ICAO) *(ICAO Annex 11: Air Traffic Services)
ALERTING SERVICE ~~A service provided to notify appropriate organizations regarding aircraft in need of search and rescue aid, and assist such organizations as required ~~ Example : Aircraft in distress…Mayday , mayday , Mayday.
Chapter 2: Air Traffic Control Unit The Air Traffic Control Unit that is typically responsible for: • Aerodrome Control Service is called the Aerodrome Control Tower (TWR) • Approach Control Service is called the Approach Control Unit (APP) • Area Control Service is called the Area Control Center (ACC) or Upper Area Control Center (UAC)

Air Traffic Management Chapter 2: Aerodrome Control
CHAPTER 2:AERODROME CONTROL What is the aerodrome control? ~~ Aerodrome is a defined area on land or water including any building, equipment and installations, intended to be used either wholly or in part for the arrival, departure and surface movement of aircraft.~~
CHAPTER 2:AERODROME CONTROL Or other word… • Services provided all flight in the vicinity of an operating control tower~~ • Aerodrome or Tower controllers control aircraft within the immediate vicinity of the airport and use visual observation from the airport tower. • The tower's airspace is often a 5-nautical-mile (9.3 km) radius around the airport, but can vary greatly in size and shape depending on traffic configuration and volume. • Visually sighted by the Aerodrome controllers • Cover from 3000 ft until 9000 ft

Chapter 2:Area of Aerodrome controller responsibility Ground control :1.Responsible for the airport "movement" areas. These include all taxiways, holding areas, and some maneuvering areas or intersections where aircraft arrive after having left the runway or the departure gates. 2.Responsible for the aircraft operating on the maneuvering area. 3. Aircraft and vehicles changing their position within these movement areas, are required to have clearance from the aerodrome controller. This is normally done via radio contact, but there may be special circumstances where other methods are used, such as communication through visual signals.
Chapter 2:Area of Aerodrome controller responsibility Air control :1. Responsibility to expedite aircraft flying in the aerodrome traffic circuit at an aerodrome (vicinity of the airport). He clears aircraft for take-off or landing, thereby ensuring that the assigned runway is clear for the foreseen maneuver. 2.Responsible to covers the airport and in which he ensures the safety of the approaching or departing aircraft by giving adequate instructions. If the air controller detects potentially unsafe conditions, he can tell the pilot of an aircraft in landing phase to go around or even order an aircraft to abort departure. 3. Highly disciplined communication and collaboration process between air and ground controllers is an absolute necessity. But the co-ordination with other air traffic controllers does not stop there: it is also advisable to co-ordinate with the radar controllers the distances separating approaching aircraft in view of creating the necessary distance for aircraft taking off or for crossing the runway.
Chapter 2:Area of Aerodrome controller responsibility Departure clearance (or clearance delivery) : What is the definition of clearance? ~~ Authorization for an aircraft to proceed under conditions specified by an air traffic control unit ~~ Example : movement of a/c , taxiing , departure , to land. 1.Responsibility of the clearance delivery position is to ensure that the aircraft receives the proper route and slot for take-off. This information is transmitted to the ground controller in order to ensure the aircraft reaches the runway within the time limits .

CHAPTER 2:AERODROME CONTROL-RUNWAY IN USE “Runway-in-use” ~~to indicate the runway which consider by controllers to be most suitable for use by a/c expected to land or take off at the aerodrome~~
CHAPTER 2:AERODROME CONTROL-RUNWAY IN USE To active Runway to be use at that particular time falls on the Aerodrome controller who determines by: • A/C TYPE (Boeing, airbus ,Cessna , light a/c) • EFFECTIVE LENGTH OF THE RUNWAY(big a/c need long runway) • THE WIND DIRECTION/VELOCITY AS A/C WILL LAND AND TAKE-OFF INTO THE WIND.(headwind/tailwind) • WEATHER PHENOMENA(wind shear/storm/snow ) • AVAILABLE OF APPROACH AIDS(DMS,ILS,NDB) • DISPOSITION OF OTHER TRAFFIC(other a/c movement) • TAXIING DISTANCE(move slowly on the ground/speed)
Aerodrome Control – Which Runway To Use Are the runways and taxiways clear for landing & takeoff

CHAPTER 2:RULES AND PROCEDUR FOR NOTIFIED AERODROME TRAFFIC ZONE 1.As per prescribe in the (CAR)Civil Aviation Regulations 1996 and (AIP) Aeronautical Information Publication~~ 2.The ATS service provided are in accordance with the provisions subscribe in the (SARPS) and ICAO Annexes and document as follow: • Annex 2-Rules of the Air • Annex 11-Air traffic Services • Annex 12-Search and Rescue(SAR) • Annex 15-Aeronautical information Services(AIS) • DOC 4444-procedures for Air Navigation Services-rules of the air services. • Doc 8168-procedures for air navigation services-Aircraft operation

CHAPTER 2: Aircraft Priority ~~What the condition of an Aircraft to give them the priority during take-off and landing???~~ ~~Who has the priority?~~
CHAPTER 2: Aircraft Priority • All a/c landing or the final stage of approach to land shall normally have priority over an aircraft intending to depart. • Departing a/c shall be cleared in order which they are ready for take off. • Bad weather • A/c emergency-(insufficient fuel, engine break down, system equipment failure)
CHAPTER 2: Aircraft Priority Two states of emergency a) Distress: A condition of being threatened by serious and/or imminent danger and of requiring immediate assistance. Examples : ditching, crash landing imminent, total engine failure... b) Urgency: A condition concerning the safety of an aircraft or some persons on board but which does not required immediate assistance. Examples : lost, fuel shortage, partial engine failure, navigation system failure...
United Airlines DC-8Flight 173 December 28, 1978 • The plane ran out of fuel and crashed, killing 10.

CHAPTER 2:Control of Circuit Air Traffic • Aerodrome controller shall provide specific ATC instruction at various position to the aircraft under his control.
CHAPTER 2:Control of Circuit Air Traffic ~~a set procedures for use in airports allowing for a smooth flow of traffic in and out of an airport. The traffic circuit consists of six parts~~ • The Upwind Leg is the flight path parallel to the landing runway, in the direction of intended landing. • The Crosswind Leg is the flight path at right angles to the landing runway, off its takeoff end. • The Downwind Leg is the flight path parallel to the landing runway opposite the direction of intended landing.
