During a flight mission, the Co-Pilot reports as a subordinate of PIC, commencing
at crew reporting time at an airport until the completion of a Journey. The Co-Pilot
should know about weather condition,
NOTAM and other operational instructions during a flight. Other technical duties
are regulated in the FCOM/AOM depending on aircraft types.
In an Enlarged Crew composition which, at the minimum consists of 2 Captains,
one will act as Pilot in Command, whereas the second Captain functions as Second
in Command (SIC), as well as a Co-pilot, and will also occupy the pilot seat in the
cockpit when PIC was taking of a rest. If, however, the Enlarged Crew composition
consist of 3 or more Captains, the SIC assignment should be determined by the
PIC, unless have determined by Crew Scheduler.
In the absence of a PIC, the pilot acting as SIC should take over all functions of the
PIC and during abnormal or emergency conditions, SIC is under the obligation to
inform PIC about the current situation, in which case PIC will then take over the
leading role.

5.4. CREW COMPOSITION


01. GENERAL
The Minimum Crewmembers known as the Standard Crew Complement is the
minimum number of Flight Crewmembers or Flight Attendant on board in order to
comply with legal operations requirement of a revenue flight (flight carrying
passengers for commercial purposes).
In the operation of a Non-Revenue Flight, the maximum occupancy in the cabin
(without Flight Attendants) is 10 people. Among them, one must receive aircraft
type-specific training and an evaluation to ensure competence in the performance
of any assigned duties or functions related to passenger cabin safety such as how
to open and close the Aircraft Door, how to operate the Slide Raft, know where the
location and the operation of the Fire Extinguishers, the use of Oxygen and
Intercom System. If the cabin occupancy number exceeds 10 persons, at least 1
(one) Flight Attendant is required (the occupancy number can be increased up to
50 people).
For an Empty Flight (except for a Training Flight), a minimum of 1 person is
required to understand how to operate cabin equipment as in the Non-Revenue
Flight above. Chief Pilot has the prerogative right to set a different policy regarding
the needs of Non-Revenue, Empty, Training and Positioning Flights.

three or more pilots must be fully qualified to act as PIC of that operation.

02. FLIGHT CREWMEMBERS


The Minimum Flight crewmembers (Standard Crew Complements) that must be on
a flight to operate the air plane are as follows:
Two Pilots for ATR72-600, CRJ 1000, B737, A330, B747-400 and B777-300ER
Only one pilot shall be assigned as the Pilot in Command on a particular flight.
The Pilot may only occupy his specific seat where he is qualified (either LH or RH)
to perform flight duties.
The PIC can take the RH seat if he is a Flight Instructor Airplane (FIA) or minimum

occupy RH seat during flight if he is qualified on RH seat and shall only function as
SIC/Co-Pilot.
Every time the PIC leaves his seat, the Command Authority and Flight Function
will be delegated to the SIC/Co-pilot in the cockpit. This regulation is also applied
for an Enlarged Crew composition.
The Enlarged Crew column in the Aircraft Flight Log (AFL) shall be marked ()
should the crew composition is an Enlarged Crew. If the Enlarged Crew in the AFL
is not filled out, the crew-link System will automatically consider the additional crew
other than the Standard Crew number as a Supernumerary Crew that will not obtain
their record of Flight Time. This will be applied to the Pilot-3, and Pilot 4.

03. ENLARGED CREW


An Enlarged Crew is a flight crew composition in a Journey with an additional one
Pilot or more from the Standard Crew Complement.
Apart from the number of Enlarged Crew (3 or 4 Pilots), the Pilot composition shall

05. THIRD PILOT IN TRAINING


The presence of a Third Pilot who is in Route Training does not prompt the crew
composition into an Enlarged Crew. To have a correct Flight Time recorded by the
Crew link application, it is the PIC’s responsibility to fill in the Flight Remarks
column in the AFL with RT, as the abbreviation for Route Training.
Not fulfilling this necessity will result in the consideration of the Third Pilot as a
Supernumerary.
In recording the Flight Time through the Crew link System, PIC will still obtain 100%
of Flight Time, whilst the Co-pilot and Third Pilot will each get 50% of Flight Time.
For the importance of Flight Allowance, each Flight Crewmember will still receive
a Flight Time Component of 100% Flight Time.
In the training stage, it is possible that in the beginning, the Third Pilot will never
take the Pilot Seat in the cockpit (whether on the LHS or on the RHS). In such
case, his presence will be noted as a Supernumerary by not writing RT in the Flight
Remarks column in the AFL. No Flight Time will be given to the Third Pilot although
in terms of Flight Allowance he will obtain the whole Flight Time.

07. INCAPACITATION AND FLIGHT CREWMEMBER REPLACEMENT


The procedures for the succession of command is explained in the FCOM/AOM for
each aircraft, in OM-A Chapter 5.2 and in OM-A Chapter 11.1.
It is legal to replace an Incapacitated Flight Crewmember with another Flight
Crewmember as long as the replacement meets the required qualifications and is
both physically and mentally ready to take the duty. The replacement Flight
Crewmember can be from a Supernumerary Crew, Dead Heading Crew (DHC) or
an on board available Flight Crew.
Refer OM-A Chapter 15, OM-A Chapter 23.4 and OM-B2 for incapacitation
procedures.

08. FLIGHT ATTENDANT


For safety reason (emergency evacuation) the presence of predetermined number
of Minimum Flight Attendants for certain aircraft type is required called the
Standard Crew Complement. This number is the absolute minimum at the time a
flight started. In addition for the purpose of services and Duty Period extension the
number in a Minimum Flight Attendant (Standard Crew Complement) is increased
called the Standard Service Crew.
FA seat rests are provided for long-haul flight based on flight time limit:
 One sector where the scheduled flight time (Block to Block) 10 hours; and
 One sector where the scheduled flight time (Block to Block) 8 hours, IF the
STD between 20:00 and 04:00 Local Time.

The seat allocations are as follows:


 B777-300ER : FA Bunker
 B747-400 : 2 seats (65 HJ)

A pilot does not operate the same type or variant of aircraft unless he/she has carried
out at least three takeoff and landings as pilot flying in the aircraft type or approved
flights simulator of the type to be used in the preceding 90 days.
Re-qualification is required to regain recency, refer OM-D1.
Note:
When an approved flight simulator is used:
 That pilot must have previously logged 100 hours flight times on the type.
 That pilot must be observed on the first 2 landings made in line operation by check
pilot who act, as PIC and the weather must be equal to or better than Cat I minima.

 The takeoff and landing exercises on such simulator must include:


 At least one takes off with a simulated failure of the most critical engine.
 At least one landing from an ILS approach to the lowest ILS minimum.
 At least one full stop landing.

6.5.3 LINE CHECK


The PIC must pass a line check once every 12 months, in which he satisfactory
performs the duties and responsibilities of his/her function in one of the type of airplane
he/she is to fly.
The check must be given by a check pilot who is currently qualified on both the route
and the airplane, and consist of at least one flight over a typical part of GARUDA route,
or over a foreign or national airway, or over a direct route.
The examiner does not automatically become PIC, and apart from his qualification, line
check can be done from observer seat. In such case, the examiner will be counted as
supernumerary crew. Line check should be written in the brief report of AFL.

Crew Qualification requirements


The required actions for crew qualification are as follows:

For Category A
If a PIC is assigned to category A airport of intended landing in areas, on routes or
route segments to be used in operations for which he is not qualified, there are four
possibilities to obtain the qualification:
 An ARI (Airport and Route Information) by means of pictorial representation; or
 The airport is considered to be adjacent to an airport for which the PIC is
already qualified. (See Table of Adjacent Airports, Areas, Route Areas and
Route segment on this section). The PIC is automatically qualified; or
 If the airport is not considered adjacent and there is no ARI presentation or
briefing available, the normal operating minima shall be adjusted by a process
that adds a margin of safety as follows:
Precision approach 100 feet to HAT - 200 m to VIS
Non precision approach 300 feet to HAA - 600 m to VIS;
Or
 Descent from the initial approach altitude to landing at the airport can be made
by day in VMC.

The Principles, Philosophy, Policies, Procedures and Practices (Behaviours) define
the Garuda Indonesia approach to CRM. Principles form the basis for our philosophy;
our philosophy shapes our policies; policies guide the development of procedures and
practices.
01. PRINCIPLES
One principle, thoroughly understood, can help solve many problems.
Crewmembers should think deeply about this idea, particularly in light of the
Garuda Indonesia CRM principles.
(a) Safety is my duty.
(b) No one is perfect, everybody makes mistakes.
(c) CRM is the way to correct mistakes.
(d) Teamwork is the result of cooperation, not competition.
(e) It is what is right, not who is right, that matters.
(f) Do first things first.
(g) Encourage open discussion
(h) Be self-critical and self-correcting.
(i) Good EQ (emotional intelligence) enhances crew performance.
(j) When in doubt, check it out.
(k) Don’t rush! Stay cool! Think it out!

behaviours, applying human factor concepts to enhance individual and crew
performance.
(e) CRM training is focused on specific teamwork, communication, decision-
making, and workload management behaviours that have been proven to
enhance personal effectiveness and job satisfaction. As a result of CRM
training, employees will be better able to function as members of self-criticizing,
self-correcting teams.

03. CRM POLICY


(a) CRM principles and behaviours must be fully integrated into all aspects of flight
operations training.
(b) Periodic CRM assessments and performance feedback will be conducted for
all flight crewmembers, flight-attendants, and dispatchers, in order to assure
effective teamwork.

(c) Flight schedules for crewmembers will be prepared and administered to assure
adequate rest and safe crew pairings (i.e., new captains will not be scheduled
with new first officers unless a DGCP/CCP or FIA is part of the crew).
(d) The PIC shall be responsible for establishing an environment of trust and
mutual-commitment prior to each flight, encouraging his fellow crewmembers
to speak up and to accept mutual responsibility for the safety and well-being of
the passengers, cargo, and equipment entrusted to them.
“What’s right, not who’s right” shall be the motto of all members of the

7.1 DUTY SCHEDULE


01. GENERAL
A Duty Schedule is a monthly assignment that is given to the crewmember as a
responsibility that has to be carried out according to their respective functions.
Flight Crewmember schedule is made by the Crew Scheduling Section, the Cabin
Crew Scheduling Section prepares Flight Attendant schedule, and each Chief
conducts monitoring.
Each crewmember will obtain the above mentioned schedule at least two days prior
to the end of the ongoing schedule via internet/NetLine Crew (crewlink.garuda-
indonesia.com) or may be via other electronics means of communication
individually.
Basically, the assignments of the crewmember are divided into:
 The assignments in the Crew Operating Pattern (CROPA); or
 The assignments in the Ground Pattern (GP).
The aircrew has to be given a Rest Period according to the valid regulations
A CROPA may be a combination of the Crew’s Duty Assignment as an Active Crew
(ACT), an ordinary passenger or as a Dead Heading Crew (DHC).

Company policy enables Rest Time given in a hotel if Transit Time is perceived to
be possible although the mentioned Rest Time will not be considered as a Lay-
Over Time. If this is applied, as long as the Flight Duty Limit is not exceeded, the
Journey is considered as the same Journey whether the Split Flight Duty Time is
applied or not.
A Journey may consist of only one Sector (i.e. Test Flight, Training Flight, etc.). A
Journey can also have a Transit Time at the Base. If that happen, that does not
make the Journey end. The length of a Journey is determined & limited by Flight
Time, Flight Duty Time and/or Flight Duty Period.
A Sector is the smallest flight module of a CROPA. A Sector begins at the Block-
Off at the Departure Station (DEP STN) and finishes at the Block-On in the Arrival
Station (ARR STN). In special cases such as diversion, RTA, RTB, etc. the DEP
STN may be also same as the ARR STN. The Flight Time measures the length of
a Sector. The use of the term Estimate Time of Departure (ETD) is to approximate
the start of a Sector. The term Estimate Time of Arrival (ETA) is the approximation
of the end of a Sector.

During the 12-hours period, the crewmember has to be reachable, by either


internet/NetLine crew (crewlink.garuda-indonesia.com), telephone/Mobile Phone.
In unexpected circumstances, The Revision can be notified when the crew
transportation reached the Pick-Up Point as written in Data Base Crewlink, and
relayed by the driver of the crew bus.
Generally, Standby period is divided by two, as follows:
a. STB09 starts at 09.00 (West Indonesia Time) until the next 12 hours
b. STB21 starts at 21.00 (West Indonesia Time) until the next 12 hours
Under certain conditions, Crew Scheduling can determine Standby schedule
outside of the general rules above, with a 12-hours length limit.
It is the responsibility of the crewmember to check that their Mobile Phone is
functioning well. If the Mobile Phone needs to be repaired during Standby period,
the crewmember shall give an alternative telephone number that can be reached
by Crew Scheduling and/or Crew Dispatch.
If the crewmember cannot give an alternative telephone number that can be
reached by Crew scheduling, it is the obligation of crewmember to contact Crew
Scheduling every hour to check their Standby status.

activities are arranged by the particular crewmember by referring to the new
schedule.
The cancellation of the new schedule back to Standby can only be done starting
from the schedule’s Pick-Up time.
All Revisions from Standby should refer to the Actual Arrival Time (ATA) of the

If CROPA is lengthened, it is the responsibility of Crew Scheduler to ascertain that


the calculation of Away From Base is still based on the start of the previous CROPA
so that the particular crewmember does not get disadvantage.
Crewmember should not refuse their new duty above, unless there are medical
reasons agreed by the Company Doctor.
Crewmember should not alter their own Duty Scheduled, or exchange duty with a
colleague without the permission of the related Chief.
Dead Heading (DH) Schedule change should fulfill the Flight Duty Time/Duty
Period requirements and should be consented by the related Chief. Available seat
in the aircraft within the Sector, Connecting Time, Rest Period and total Flight Duty
Time should also be considered in the consent of a schedule change.
The request to change DH outside the Home Base has to be approved by the local
Station Manager and can only be carried out if the Sector(s) are heading towards
Home Base, which originally was to be a DH sector, and not followed by other
Active Sector within CROPA.
DH schedule change can only be approved by local Station Manager if it functions
to shorten Lay-Over Time and there is an available seat on the Aircraft.

7.2.1 GENERAL
Garuda Indonesia policy regarding Work and Rest Limits is referred to CASR.
The Flight Time and Flight Duty Time for crewmember shall ensure that fatigue
occurring either in one flight, successive flights or accumulated over a period of time
is already taken into account and does not endanger the safety of the flight.
The limitations for flight crewmember are determined on the basis of Flight Time, Flight
Duty Time, and Rest Period.
The limitations for Flight Attendants are determined on the basis of Duty Period
Limitations and Rest Requirements.
Note:
 For the purpose of logging Pilot logbook, AFL, and AML, the Flight time is used.
 Block Time, Air Time and Flight Time data on the AFL are baseline data. Therefore
shall be written accurately. Rounding off the time data is prohibited.
 Logging the individual Flight Time for Enlarged Crew is equal to Flight Deck Duty
Time. Therefore to log the enlarged crew that consists of 3 Pilots is 2/3 of Total
Flight Time, and for Enlarged crew that consists of 4 Pilots is half of Total Flight
Time.

8.1 CREW HEALTH PRECAUTION


8.1.1 GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
(1) Crew Meals
The objective is to maintain all crew member physically fit and alert. For flight
crew preferably the quality of the meals is equivalent to C-class and could be
served base on individual schedule. For safety reason the PIC and First Officer
shall therefore have different main dish.
(2) Food Poisoning
Food poisoning is among the most frequent cases of in-flight incapacitation.
Although caterer and catering supplies are frequently and thoroughly inspected,
it cannot be guaranteed that all food is always safe. In general fish and shellfish
pose the highest risk, however, meat and meat products cannot be excluded. If
at all possible the same applies to meals taken shortly before flight. The special
meals or crew box for one of the pilots will be mark.
Note: For incapacitation of crewmember refer to OM-A chapter 15.

For further particulars on the occurrence and initial symptoms of infectious diseases
see OM-A Chapter 8.1.2.2 below. For quarantine measures see OM-A Chapter 8.2.3.

8.1.2.2 TYPES OF INFECTIOUS/CONTAGIOUS DISEASES


When a taking decision as to whether there is a possible case of one of the infectious
or contagious diseases mentioned below, the PIC will consider the following:
 Whether the passenger has been stayed in the area of disease
For this reason the sick passenger should be asked where he has stayed during
the preceding fortnight, and it should be considered whether there is a possibility
of infection.
In the affirmative case it is necessary to know where the disease in question has
recently been discovered. It is hardly possible to keep abreast of these facts,

8.2 QUARANTINE MEASURES


01. GENERAL
An aircraft may be submitted to quarantine measure without passenger suffering
from an infectious disease being carried.
In principle, every State is free to take any measures it may deem necessary to
prevent infectious disease entering its territory. However, for the uniformity of the
measures taken, many States have agreed to submit themselves to the regulation
of the World Health Organization. All States concerned agree to report the
occurrence of infectious diseases to the World Health Organizations, which takes
care of the publication. As a consequence of this information, any State may
declare certain areas outside its own territory to be infected, and consequently be
free to issue restrictions of aerial traffic.
An aircraft arriving from infected areas may only land at certain airports, the so-
called sanitary airports, where measures have been taken to prevent infectious
diseases from spreading.
For aircraft leaving for and arriving from an infected area, the following actions may
be taken:
 disinfection of articles which are potential to spread the disease;
 medical examination of passengers and crew;
O PY
 prohibition to leave the country of all persons showing symptoms of the

arrival. In case of revaccination, this period should
start immediately after the latter.
YELLOW FEVER Insulation in screened localities of those passengers
and crew, who are not in possession of a valid
International Inoculation Certificate against yellow
fever, may be ordered for a period not exceeding 6
days.
They are allowed to continue the journey by the same
aircraft provided the medical authorities of the next
airport have been notified.

Only the essentials of wound treatment, and a few hints concerning first aid in case of
injuries, are stated below:
 Minor injuries
After disinfecting the surrounding part with sterilon, cover wounds with envoplast
or salve-kwik. In the case of somewhat larger wounds, which are bleeding
profusely, apply on top, sterilized gauze (16 x 16) and finish up with a layer of
cotton wool and a firm bandage. Never use cotton wool directly on wounds.
 Splinters
Remove with the aid pointed tweezers, after disinfecting the wound with sterilon.
 Large wound
Use the special bandages contained in the large first aid kit, and then raise the
wounded part of the body to a comfortable position.
 Venous bleeding
Apply emergency dressing firmly to the wound.
 Arterial bleeding
To be recognized by the bright red blood gushing forcefully from the wound.
Fortunately, these types of wound do not frequently occur. An emergency dressing

C O PY
firmly applied, should be used first. If the bleeding does not stop, a tourniquet

 Complex fracture : with injury of the skin.
Patient should on no account be moved unless a splint has been applied. For the

first aid instructions.
 Fracture of one or several of the dorsal vertebrae
Patient experiences violent pain in the back after falling down and landing on his
back or buttocks. Any incautious movement in such cases may cause injury of the
special marrow, resulting in permanent paralysis. The patient should therefore be
treated with the utmost care and laid down flat on his back, whereupon expert
assistance should be awaited.
 Unconsciousness after injuries may be caused by :
 injury of the head - concussion of the brain
In case of a slight concussion of the brain the patient is unconscious for a short
time only, after which he may suffer from severe headaches, feel sick and
sometimes vomit. The patient should be laid down flat and his head protected
against vibration of the aircraft, whilst performing any further movements very

not be given anything by mouth until a doctor has seen him.
In case of severe consumption of the brain the patient remains unconscious for
a longer period, and sometimes bleeds from the mouth, nose or ears; this
generally indicates a cranial fracture.
 indication of a cranial fracture
This is sufficient reason to request the PIC to land as soon as possible in order
to have the patient conveyed to a hospital.
 Shock
Shock symptoms are: unconsciousness and pale face, cold perspiration, weak
pulse, shivers, sickness.
Shock is a likely feature in all cases of serious external injuries or burning, and of
internal injuries. In this case medical attendance should be provided as soon as
possible ; pending this the patient should be kept warm and laid down flat ; when
the patient returns to consciousness he should not be given anything by mouth.
Oxygen can be administered.
 Serious loss of blood
In this case something like a state of shock occurs. Apart from measures to staunch

APPARATUS

8.4 DIRECTIONS FOR USE OF OXYGEN APPARATUS


01. GENERAL
If the Medical Department deems it necessary to provide oxygen for one or more
passengers, the Medical Department will supply so called “oxygen cases”. An
oxygen case contains an oxygen cylinder, an oxygen mask (1) and a plastic oxygen
mask (2).
The latter is a spare one to use when the other becomes dirty or is not usable for
other reasons. The oxygen flow amounts to 3 or 7 liters per minute, automatically
controlled by a regulator at the top of the cylinder. If the mask is connected with
the green painted connector (G) the flow amounts to 3 liters per minute and if the
mask is connected with the red connector (R), the flow amounts to 7 liters per
minute. A method of rough determination of the quantity available in litters is to
divide the pressure in psi, indicated by the gauge (*) with the number 15 and
multiply this with the volume of the cylinder, i.e. 2.6.
If the plastic mask has to be used, disconnect the tube of the other mask and
connect it to the plastic one. Other procedures are the same.
If not strictly necessary, the pressure in the cylinder should not come under 50 psi.
Smoking is prohibited within 10 feet of oxygen storage and dispensing equipment.

Remove your mouth. Listen for sound
of returning air. If you don’t hear it,
recheck head position. Breathe
again. If you still get no air exchange,
turn victim on side and slap between
shoulders to dislodge possible
foreign matters, if necessary remove
with fingers. Afterwards put head
back in former position, see Fig.1.
Remove mouth each time to let
escape returning air.
For an adult, breathe vigorously about 16-18 times a minute. For a small child, take
relatively short breaths, about 10-12 per minute.
Don’t give up until the victim begins to breathe himself. If possible, call a doctor or
ambulance promptly. Keep the victim warm and quite.

FREQUENTLY OCCURING DISEASE

8.6 DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF FREQUENTLY OCCURRING DISEASES


01. GENERAL
In order to be able to deal with illness and accidents on board, cabin crew
members, and for cargo flights the cockpit crew, should have some knowledge of
the symptoms of frequently occurring diseases, and of possible treatment. It should
always be realized that this knowledge is very limited, and that, whenever
necessary and possible, advice of a doctor or nurse should be sought.

02. AIRSICKNESS
The symptoms are the same as for seasickness: dizziness and in some cases
vomiting. The following cures may be tried:
 administer anti-airsickness tablets,
 make the patient shut the eyes and try to sleep,
 administer fresh air by means of the individual ventilator,
 sponge face and hands with cold water,
 give a blanket and pillow and draw the curtain,
 in case of vomiting, keep paper bags and napkins ready, let the patient
rinse his/her mouth,
 Offer dry crackers.

the mucous membranes may be alleviated by administering a nose spray.

04. NERVOUSNESS
Persons, susceptible to emotional circumstances, may appear excited, agitated,
depressed or whimpering. A quiet attitude is the best treatment. A sedative (1 tablet
carbromal, three times daily) may be given, Hysterical fits should not be mistaken
for fainting due to other causes, such as genuine fits of epilepsy, or apoplectic fits,
or paralytic strokes.
A patient suffering from a hysterical fit is not always entirely unconscious; the
complexion does not change considerably (contrary to pallor in fainting, blueness
in epileptic fits, and redness in apoplectic fits). The hysterical patient drops
cautiously and refuses to have his eyes opened. As little attention as possible
should be paid to such a case.

 Alka Seltzer (allow 1 tablet to dissolve in a glass of water)
 Norit (a few tablets).
 Hiccups (also if caused by alcohol consumption)
Therapy: make the passenger, whilst holding his/her breath, stick out his
tongue for a considerable period.
 Diarrhea
Here too, abstinence from food and administration of Norit, Enterovioform (1
tablets four times daily) at Feuilor (1 tablet three to four times daily).
 Constipation
This can, if necessary, be counteracted by a laxative (e.g. Nourilax), taking into

PY
account the length of time to elapse before the end of the journey.

attacks during flight. If such a patient carries medicine to be taken in case of an
attack, this may be administered. Also supply oxygen and reduce cabin altitude if
possible. If all this fails to improve the situation, no time should be lost in providing
medical attendance.
People suffering from anemia, should be given oxygen when they show symptoms
of oppression or fainting. Again, reducing of cabin altitude might help.
Passengers suffering from affection of the lungs may become short-breathed.
Administration of oxygen may be necessary.

07. ACUTE CASES OF ILLNESS


The most frequent cases of acute illness which are to be anticipated amongst
passengers and crew are:
 Appendicitis
Commences with sickness, sometimes vomiting, slight fever and pain, at first
diffusely in the abdomen, later on specifically in the right-hand lower part. The
abdomen should be kept still (deep breathing being painful) the patient cannot

bear pressure on the spot. Motions are regular, or the patient may have no
motion for a whole day; diarrhea is rare. A surgical operation is necessary
although a few hours of delay will not harm the patient, so that in most cases
the flight can be continued according to schedule. Naturally a wire should be
sent requesting the present of a doctor at the next station. Treatment: no food
or drink; make the patient recline in his/her seat.
 Stomach or intestinal perforation
Sudden, very violent pain; the patient feel oppressed due to painful breathing.
He/She lies stock still, feels sick and usually vomits, his/her face pale and
drained from all color; he is frightened, his nose is cold to the touch, his/her
pulse quick and very faint.
The patient must be operated on as quickly as possible and consequently it is
justified to deviate from schedule and to land at the nearest station where
surgical attendance is available. Treatment: no food or drink whatsoever!
 Gall stone or renal (calculus) colic’s
Very violent, shooting paints, in case of gall stone colic in the right-hand part of
the upper abdomen, extending to back and shoulder; in case of renal (calculus)
colic in the right-or-left-hand part of the lumbar region extending downward,
frequently attended by vomiting. Contrary to the above, the patient does not lie

Patient feels sick and vomits black blood (some bright red blood in the vomit is of
no importance); he turns pale, sometimes producing black motions of a pappy
nature. Unless the vomiting is vehement, and in great quantity, the flight may
proceed according to schedule. Preferably the patient should be laid flat, ice should
be placed on the gastric region and the patient should not be given any food or
drink, although he may be allowed to melt a few pieces of ice in his mouth.

09. HEMORRHAGE OF THE LUNGS


During a coughing-fit the patient vomits red, frontly blood, frequently one or more
cupfuls. This is rarely a directly dangerous condition; the patient should be made
to relax in his seat and reassured. A drink of ice water or a few block of ice in the
mouth will do him/her no harm.

10. PAIN IN THE CHEST


Apart from the affection mentioned under 07, viz spasm of the heart, which mainly
affects elderly people, pain in the chest rarely constitutes a reason to deviate from

8. HEALTH
OM – A 8.6 DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF

the flight schedule. Only when the pain is attended by violent oppression and blue
lips and nails, one should be careful, in that case administration of oxygen being
necessary. As a remedy against the pain, Aspirin, Almedine or sedatives may be
administered.

11. COLDS
Colds are especially important in connection with air travel, as the latter gives rise
to inflammations of the nose-cavity. It is advisable not to fly when one has a serious
cold, the nose-passage being obstructed.
Treatment:
 throat ache : Agre Gola or Spidox tablets (four or five tablets to be sucked daily);
 cold in the nose: nose-drops, nose-spray;
 Inflammation of the nose cavities, recognizable by pain above the eyes (frontal
sinus) or in the upper jaw (cavity of the jaw): nose-drops, nose-spray. When
the condition begins during flight, the rate of climbing or descending should be
reduced as much as possible;
 Common cold: application of hot cloths on the painful spot, nose-drops, Aspirin.

Fever is hardly ever sufficient reason to deviate

intercontinental routes may suffer from an attack of malaria. In most cases of an
attack of fever of unknown nature it is undesirable that quinine or camoquine be
administered before a blood test has been made.

14. DIABETES
It is known from experience that diabetics, used to injecting themselves with insulin,
are inclined to take an extra dose during the journey for various reasons. This may
cause an abnormal fall of the sugar contents of the blood, and result in the patient
getting into a peculiar stupefied condition (stare, perspiration, trembling). In case
of such conditions, inquiry should be made of the patient himself or his possible
escort regarding the possibility of this being the cause of the abnormal symptoms.
In case of confirmation, a few teaspoonful of sugar or some sugared water will soon
cause the symptoms to disappear.

15. APOPLECTIC FITS


Apolectic fits may occur to elderly people during the journey, especially when the
cabin temperature is high. The patient suddenly loses consciousness the head,
however, is congestive (red) and not pale (as in the case of fainting), he/she is
breathing deeply and often snoring irregularly, whereas in most cases the pulse is
clearly perceptible.
When he/she regains consciousness he/she is apt to suffer from paralysis. This
paralysis may also occur suddenly without attending unconsciousness. These
patients should not be laid down flat, but placed in a comfortable, half-sitting
position; tight fitting garments should be loosened, and if the patient looks blue,
oxygen should be administered. Furthermore, the PIC should be requested to
decrease the flying altitude, and to apply for medical attendance at the next station.

16. EPILEPTIC FITS


The patient, whilst at first appearing entirely normal, suddenly looks around him/her
in a peculiar way. The eyeballs roll upwards, he/she sometimes cries out, and then
lose consciousness. At first the muscles are taut, later on he/she starts violent
motions with the arms, the legs and the head, whilst frothing at the mouth
(frequently the mouth is covered with blood, due to his/her biting his tongue) and
making water.

During a journey in tropical regions the cabin temperature is apt to rise
unpleasantly. In these cases it is the steward’s duty to invoke the assistance of the
flight engineer, in order to lower the temperature to a more comfortable level. When
it is noticed that the passengers are perspiring unduly, an extra supply, however,
causes the loss of a great deal of salt, symptoms of exhaustion, sometimes
attended by spasm, may result. This may be prevented by supplying to the
passengers daily, apart from great quantities of liquids, a few salt capsules.

9.2.1 CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING USABLE AIRPORT
A. Airport Definition
01. Adequate airport (applicable for ETOPS/EDTO and non-ETOPS/EDTO)
An adequate airport is an airport, which the operator and the authority consider
to be adequate, having regard to the performance requirement applicable at
the expected landing weight. The following considerations should be met at the
expected time of use:
 Availability of the airport, equipped with the necessary ancillary services
such as ATC, Fire brigade sufficient lighting, communications, weather
reporting, nav-aids and emergency services.
 At least one letdown aid (ground radar would qualify) will be available for
an instrument approach.

02. Suitable airport (applicable for ETOPS/EDTO and non-ETOPS/EDTO)


A suitable airport is an adequate airport with weather reports, or forecast, or
any combination thereof, indicating that the weather conditions are at or above
operating minima and the field condition reports indicate that a safe landing can

C O PY 4 4 9
be accomplished at the time of the intended operation. A check of the relevant

use the aerodrome of departure.
 En-route alternate is an aerodrome at which an aircraft would be able to
land after experiencing an abnormal or emergency condition while en route.
 ETOPS/EDTO en-route alternate is a suitable aerodrome that is designated
in a dispatch or flight release for use in the event of a diversion during
ETOPS/EDTO. This definition applies to flight planning and does not in any
way limit the authority of the pilot-in-command during flight.
 Destination alternate is an alternate aerodrome to which an aircraft may
proceed should it become either impossible or inadvisable to land at the
airport of intended landing.

OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.2 AERODROMES

04. Emergency Airport


Off-line airports not typically used by Garuda for normal operations, which may
be available for use in the event of an emergency. Emergency airports are
typically categorized by the level of support, facilities and risk to be expected,
and are only used when a flight cannot continue either to its destination or to a
suitable alternate due to a specific emergency.

B. Airport Analysis
Prior to operating to any route or airport, a route and aerodrome analysis shall be
completed (including destination and alternate), including:
 Obstacle clearance for all phases of flight (minimum safe altitude);
 Runway (width, length and pavement strength);
 Navigation Aids and lighting;
 Weather reporting;
 Emergency services;
 Fuel burn calculations;
 Fuel freeze considerations;
 ETOPS requirements when applicable;

C. Performance Calculations
It shall be ensured that by referenced only to the performance manual of each type
of aircraft, all performance calculation considers all significant factors during all
phases of flight, including:
 Aircraft weight;
 Operating procedures;
 Pressure altitude;
 Temperature;
 Wind;

 Runway gradient;
 Runway contamination/braking action;
 Obstacle data;
 NOTAMS;
 MEL/CDL information;
 Aircraft configuration, including different flap setting, anti-ice usage;
 Runway length used for aircraft alignment prior to takeoff.

D. Performance Requirements
01. Takeoff Flight Path
The takeoff flight path (hence: all performance calculations) is principally based
on the concept that: after liftoff with the critical engine inoperative, the aircraft
must:
 Meet specified climb gradient requirement to ensure adequate climb
performance (airworthiness requirement).
 Clear all obstacle in a defined area beyond the end of the runway by a safe
margin (“operational “obstacle clearance requirement).
The gross takeoff flight path may be considered to extent from liftoff to the point

PY
where a height of 1500 feet above the takeoff surface is reached, or, the point

Performance engineering methods will surely involving complex calculations,
but as a rule of thumb, one can determine the all engine climb gradient by using
the following formula (vary the rate of climb to obtain desired gradient):
Rate of Climb ROC
Climb Gradient =  in short: T/O Grad = in %
Ground Speed G/S

Example:
The rate of climb during takeoff has never been less than 2000 feet/min until
3000 feet AGL. Assumed V2 = 150, where climb out speed is V2 + 20, the
approximate GS will be 170. The all engine take off climb gradient will be
2000/170 = 11.8 %.

03. Landing Performance


Flight crewmember shall asses landing performance prior to arrival at the
destination or alternate airport in order to determine that sufficient landing
distance exists for a landing to be accomplished with an adequate safety
margin:
 On the runway intended use;
 In the conditions existing at the estimated time of arrival (ETA);
 In the aircraft configuration and with the means of deceleration that will be
used for the landing.

9.2.2 ENROUTE EMERGENCY AIRPORT


In the event of en-route emergency (un-fightable fire, two-engine fail, etc.) on remote
or sparsely populated areas, the flight crewmember shall be familiar with the availability
of airport for landing (see OM-C Chapter 1.1 and 1.2).
Flight crewmember shall also be familiar with certain local procedures such as PAL
(Pilot Activated Lighting) operations, CTAF (Common Traffic Advisory Frequency),
AFRU (Aerodrome Frequency Response Unit), etc.

9.2.3 APPROVAL OF ROUTE

9.2.4 METHOD OF DETERMINING AIRPORT CATEGORIES


Aerodromes are categorized in ascending order of difficulty from category A to
category C.
a. Category A aerodromes satisfy all of the following requirements:
 An approved instrument approach procedure;
 At least one runway with no performance limited procedure for takeoff and/or
landing;
 Published circling minima not higher than 1000 feet AAL; and
 Night operations capability.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 4



OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.2 AERODROMES

b. Category B aerodromes do not satisfy the Category A requirements or require extra


considerations such as:
 Non-standard approach aids and/or approach patterns; or
 Unusual local weather conditions;
 Unusual characteristics or performance limitations;
 Any other relevant considerations include obstructions, physical layout,
lighting, etc.

c. Category C aerodromes require additional considerations to Category B


aerodromes.
Airport that has no instrument approach procedure is categorized as Category C
airport.
The list of aerodromes categorized as B or C, as well as the associated
particularities is given in OM-C Chapter 2.2

9.2.5 RESCUE AND FIRE FIGHTING SERVICE (RFFS)


Ref ICAO Annex 6. In principle, the published RFFS category for the aerodrome used
for a given flight should be equal to or better than the airplane RFFS category.

C O PY 4 4 9
However, if the airplane category is not available at one or more of the aerodromes,

If the equipment and personnel required are not immediately available at an airport,
Garuda may still list the airport on the dispatch or flight release if the airport's RFFS
can be augmented to meet the requirements from local firefighting assets. A 30
minutes response time for augmentation is adequate if the local assets can be notified
while the diverting airplane is en route. The augmenting equipment and personnel must
be available on arrival of the diverting airplane and must remain as long as the diverting
airplane needs RFFS.

9.2.6 NOTAM AND AIP SUPPLEMENT


AIP (Aeronautical Information Publication) is a legal documents issued by States and
takes priority over other source of aeronautical information. It has publication and
effective dates.
NOTAM (ICAO Annex 15): A notice, distributed by means of telecommunications,
containing information concerning the establishment, condition, or change in any
aeronautical facility service, procedure or hazard, the timely knowledge of which is
essential to personnel concerned with flight operations.
NOTAMs are presented from the ATC briefing office or approved source (Jeppesen).
Some States continue to use the name “NOTAMs Class 1”.

Classification Number (PCN) with an Aircraft’s Classification Number (ACN).
An aircraft having an ACN equal to or less than the PCN can operate without weight
restriction on the pavement. This system replaces all previous methods used by
airports to report their pavement capabilities.
The detailed procedures used for the development of the ACN/PCN numbers are
described in the appropriate ICAO documents.

02. THE AIRCRAFT CLASSIFICATION NUMBER (ACN)


The ACN is calculated taking into account the weight of the aircraft, the pavement
type, and the subgrade category.
ACN values for selected aircraft have been calculated by ICAO using two computer
programs, one for rigid pavements and one for flexible pavements.
Manufactures will calculate ACNs for new aircraft as they come into service will
publish the results in Flight manuals.
The tables give ACN values for two weights, one at maximum authorized takeoff
weight and a lower representative operating weight empty. If the aircraft is

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 8



OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.2 AERODROMES

operating at an intermediate weight, the ACN value can be calculated by a linear


variation between the limits.
Extrapolation is not permissible. With a known PCN value the maximum authorized
takeoff weight can be determined.

03. PAVEMENT CLASSIFICATION NUMBER (PCN)


PCN are reported in AGA 2 and AGA 3 of the AIP as a five part code.
Apart from the numerical value of the PCN the report includes the pavement type
(rigid or flexible) and the subgrade support strength category. Additionally,
provision is made in the report for the airport authority to place a limit on maximum
allowable tire pressure if this is a constraint. Finally, an indication is given whether
the pavement was evaluated by technical means or by past experience of aircraft
use of the pavement.
Details of the five elements of the code are :
a. The PCN number

04. OPERATING PROCEDURES


Normal Operations
Provided a pavement PCN is equal to or greater than the ACN of the aircraft,
unlimited use of the pavement is permitted. For comparison, elements b and c in
ACN and PCN code should be similar.
Overload Operations
 for flexible pavement, occasional movements by aircraft with ACN not
exceeding 10% above the reported PCN should not adversely affect the
pavement;
 for rigid or composite pavements, in which a rigid pavement layer provides a
primary element of the structure, occasional movements by aircraft with ACN

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 9



OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.2 AERODROMES

not exceeding 5% above the reported PCN should not adversely affect the
pavement;
 if the pavement structure is unknown, the 5% limitation should apply; and
 the annual number of overload movements should not exceed approximately
5% of the total annual aircraft movements.
Such overload movements should not normally be permitted on pavements
exhibiting signs of distress or failure. Furthermore, overloading should be avoided
during any periods of thaw following frost penetration, or when the strength of the
pavement or its subgrade could be weakened by water.
Where overload operations are conducted, the appropriate authority should review
the relevant pavement condition regularly, and should also review the criteria for
overload operations periodically since excessive repetition of overload can cause
severe shortening of pavement life or require major rehabilitation of pavement.
Garuda Indonesia will not plan to operate into airports that do not meet the
requirement. Garuda Indonesia minimum requirements with respect to runway and
apron bearing strength. Navigation Support Department (CGKOSNGA) is in charge
with the supervision of the subject.
This implies that routine NOTAM on Load Classification Number (LCN) etc., need
not be considered for day to day flight preparation.

9.3.1 ALTERNATE REQUIREMENTS
No aerodrome shall be designated as a destination alternate unless the airplane, at
the weight anticipated at the time of arrival at such aerodrome can meet the landing
distance required as shown in the operating manual for the altitude of the aerodrome
and in accordance with other applicable operating requirements for the alternate
aerodrome.
Since the choice of alternate influences the basic block fuel, for that reason alternates
must be chosen by considering:
 Flight planning minima for alternates (visibility/ceiling: see OM-A chapter 9.5.1)
 Weather (wind and precipitation)
 Runway length and conditions.
 NOTAM information, opening hours, other ROM and aerodrome limitation
 Aircraft equipment.
Alternate will normally be selected from those listed in the ROM for each regular
aerodrome.
If weather forecasts of destination and alternate are well above limits and the area is
known for stable conditions and accurate forecasting, the alternate requiring the least
amount of alternate fuel must be selected.

should be considered.
The probability of a diversion (low when CAT II is available) should be weighed against
the cost of carrying extra fuel and/or leaving behind payload.
Alternate airports can be define as:
1. Destination Alternate
Normally one alternate for destination is required. If the weather forecast for the
destination airport at ETA is equal to applicable operating landing minima then one
additional alternate is required.
If the weather forecast for the destination airport at ETA is below landing minima
or the wind is in excess of the tail – or crosswind limitations, then no dispatch is
allowed.
2. Takeoff Alternate (Alternate Airport For Departure)
If the weather conditions at the airport of departure are at or below the applicable
operating landing minima or it would not be possible to return to the airport of

airport:
 Two engine aircraft:
Not more than one hour flying time from the departure airport, calculated at the
single-engine cruise speed, determined from the aircraft operating manual in
ISA and still air conditions using the actual takeoff mass.
 Three or more engine aircraft:
Not more than two hours flying time from the departure airport, calculated at
one engine inoperative engine cruise speed, determined from the aircraft
operating manual in ISA and still air conditions using the actual takeoff mass.
 For aircraft engaged in ETOPS where alternative airport meeting the flight time
criteria stated above is not available, the first available airport located within the
maximum diversion flying time approved, considering the actual takeoff mass.

9.3.2 SELECTIONS OF ALTERNATE


Alternates will normally be selected from those listed in the ROM for each regular
airport. If none of these alternates can be used, any other suitable airport may be
selected in accordance with ACL C70.
If the conditions at destinations are such that the possibility of diversion cannot be
disregarded, the following consideration should be taken into account when selecting
alternate:
A. Operational Requirements
 Weather condition is forecasted above minima within one hour before and one
hour after the estimate earliest and latest time of arrival
 Runway conditions and length
 Approach facilities
 Availability of fuel and starting equipment
 Ground Handling / Aircraft handling facilities.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

9.3 ALTERNATE AIRPORT

B. Commercial Considerations
 Distance from destination
 Passenger handling facilities
 Final destination of disembarking passengers
 Ground connections and/or hotel accommodations
 Schedule regularity
 Political aspects.
In case of a very good weather forecast for a destination, situated in a normally reliable
weather area, planning of a close-by alternate in recommended to avoid unnecessary
carriage of fuel.
When the chance of an actual diversion in such a case in remote. Therefore, the
requirements for the availability of fuel and/or starting equipment at the alternate
station is not necessary, provided the destination airport has more than one runway.
In the Alternate tables, an alternate is specified for the calculation of the basic booking
payloads. In most cases it will be possible to use this alternate or an alternate at shorter

9.4 MINIMUM ALTITUDE

All published altitude are true altitude, therefore when using a pressure altimeter in
determining aircraft altitude, it is the pilot’s responsibility to correct the altimeter reading
as appropriate for pressure, temperature, wind and terrain effects.
Altitude associated with procedures (e.g. initial or intermediate approach) normally
contains sufficient obstacle clearance and correction should not be necessary.
However, when cleared to an altitude found unacceptable /doubtful to the pilot-in-
command due to low temperature or any other reason, he is expected to request
higher. If such request is not received, ATC will consider the clearance to be accepted
and to be complied with.
When being radar vectored, ATC is responsible for terrain clearance, including cold
temperature correction.
Note:
 In order to enhance situational awareness and enable to verify ATC clearance in
relation to terrain, airport charts are provided with relevant terrain contour.
 Terrain clearance should be used for contingency planning such as engine failure
after V1.
 For selected areas, the route documentation provide terrain contour for the en-
route phase of flight.
 In order to be prepared for emergency conditions, it is recommended to count the

9.4.2 TYPE OF MINIMUM ALTITUDE


A. Minimum En-route Altitude (MEA)
The minimum en-route altitude (MEA) is the lowest altitude a pilot can fly en-route.
The MEA provides obstruction clearance within 5 statute miles of the airway
centerline.
MEA guarantees clearance of:
1) 1000 feet above the highest obstruction in non-mountainous terrain, or
2) 2000 feet above the highest obstruction in mountainous terrain, rounded off to
the next higher increment of 100 feet.
The lowest MEA is 2000 feet. In addition to obstruction clearance, the MEA also
guarantees reception of a navigational signal at any point along the airway. The
pilot flying at or above the MEA can be assured that proper obstruction clearance
and usable navigational signals are reliable.
On Jeppesen charts the MEA is shown the airway centerline. It is often the first of
the two altitudes listed, or, if only one is shown, it is the MEA.

E. Minimum Sector Altitude (MSA)


Altitude depicted on an instrument approach chart and identified as the minimum
sector altitude (MSA) which provides a 1000 feet obstacle clearance within a 25
NM radius from the primary navigational facility upon which the instrument
approach procedure is predicated. If the radius limit is other than 25 NM, it is stated.
This altitude is for emergency use only and does not necessary guarantee NAVAID
reception. When the MSA is divided into sectors, with each sector a different
altitude, the altitudes in these sectors are referred to as Minimum Sector Altitudes.
MSA is shown in a circle. When segments have different altitudes the dividing lines
are clearly shown as magnetic bearing toward the facility with MSA figures in each
segment. The facility is always identified in the procedure. The localizer facility is
not used in determining MEAs.

F. Minimum IFR Altitude


The minimum altitudes for IFR operations are published on aeronautical charts for
airways, routes and for standard instrument approach procedures.
If no applicable minimum altitude is prescribed the following minimum IFR altitudes

R oMinimum
Despite using MEAs, a route segment may be defined vertically by crossing
altitude at a specified point. A MCA for a point on arrival, initial / intermediate
and non-precision approach segment provides obstacle clearance at and
before that point.
 Obstacle Clearance Height / Altitude (OCH/A)
The OCH/A is the minimum obstacle safe height / altitude of the final approach
segment. It determines the Minimum Descent Altitude (MDA) for the non-
precision approach and the Decision Altitude (DA) for the precision approach.
 Departure route
Departure routes (SIDs or omni directional departures) are protected against
obstacle by an up sloping surface. Unless otherwise indicated, the gradient of
this surface is 3.3%. It may be located below the applicable minimum en-route
altitude, but as long as the aircraft remains above the up sloping departure
surface and within the departure route limits, obstacle clearance will be
assured. Any MCA must be reached at the given point to ascertain sufficient
obstacle clearance beyond that point.

 Lowest Usable Flight Level


For flight outside controlled airspace including below the lower limit of
controlled airspace, e.g. when forced to descend by system malfunctions, the
determination of the lowest usable flight level is the responsibility of PIC, taking
into account current or forecast QNH and temperature.
When operating below controlled airspace, the accumulated pressure and
temperature correction may affect a flight level or altitude in controlled airspace.
Clearance from appropriate ATC must then be obtained.

H. Minimum VFR Altitude


Day VFR operations: The minimum VFR flight altitudes during the day are 1,000
feet above the surface or mountain, hill, or other obstruction to flight.

I. Minimum Vectoring Altitude (MVA)


Established for use by ATC when radar ATC is exercised. MVA are chart prepared
by air traffic facilities at locations where there are numerous different minimum
IFR altitudes. Each MVA chart has sectors large enough to accommodate

PY
vectoring of aircraft within the sector at the MVA. Each sector boundary is at least
O 4 9
3 miles from the obstruction determining the MVA. To avoid a large sector with an
C 1 4
L L ED g / .0
excessively high MVA due to an isolated prominent obstruction, the obstruction
5
N T RO
may be enclosed in a buffer area whose boundaries are at least 3 miles from the
g g a n
obstruction. This is done to facilitate vectoring around the obstruction.

N C O i t a n
 The minimum vectoring altitude in each sector provides 1000 feet above the
S
U l o ra 1 - 2 5
highest obstacle in non-mountainous areas and 2000 feet above the highest
n a F 1 7 -0
obstacle in designated mountainous areas. Where lower MVAs are required in
l y 2 0
R ose
designated mountainous areas to achieve compatibility with terminal routes or
to permit vectoring to an IAP, 1000 feet of obstacle clearance may be
authorized with the use of Airport Surveillance Radar (ASR). The minimum
vectoring altitude will provide at least 300 feet above the floor of controlled
airspace.
 Because of differences in the areas considered for MVA, and those applied to
other minimum altitudes, and the ability to isolate specific obstacles, some
MVAs may be lower than the non-radar Minimum En-route Altitudes (MEA),
Minimum Obstruction Clearance Altitude (MOCA) or other minimum altitudes
depicted on charts for a given location. While being radar vectored, IFR altitude
assignments by ATC will be at or above MVA.

01. INTRODUCTION
No Garuda Indonesia employee may use any weather information to conduct
operations unless approved aeronautical weather information as published by the
Badan Meteorologi, Klimatologi dan Geofisika (BMKG) and/or other approved
aeronautical weather data such as Jeppesen for the control of flight operations.
The basic function of weather minima is to indicate an approach to land may be
attempted and also to control the operation of the aircraft approaching to land in
marginal weather conditions such that maximum landing rate is achieved.
This implies that violation of Garuda Indonesia published approach
chart/information weather minima regulation may not only lead to disciplinary
measures by the company but also to investigation and action by the State
concerned.

02. APPLICATION
The published approach minima on the Garuda Indonesia approach charts are
based on full operation of all components and visual aids associated with the
particular instrument approach procedure.

RHere is an example for local procedures of UK Approach Ban as follows; the
approach shall not be continued below 1000ft above the aerodrome if the relevant
RVR/Visibility for that runway is at the time less than the specified minimum for
landing. If after passing 1000 feet, the reported RVR/Visibility falls below the
applicable minimum, the approach may be continued to DA/DH or MDA/MDH.
If one or more component visual aids are inoperative or not used, the minima are
published on the appropriate column of the approach minima.
The same applies for the inoperative equipment of the related aircraft.

03. DEFINITIONS AND REGULATIONS


Ceiling
Ceiling (ICAO) is the height above the ground or water of the base of the lowest
layer of cloud below 20.000 feet covering more than half the sky.
Note: When there is no clearly defined cloud base, a vertical visibility is sometimes
reported. This shall then be taken as ceiling. The reported ceiling or vertical
visibility is normally measured above the official airport elevation.

Decision altitude (DA) or decision height (DH)


A specified altitude or height in the precision approach or approach with vertical
guidance at which a missed approach must be initiated if the required visual
reference to continue the approach has not been established.
Note:
 Decision altitude (DA) is referenced to mean sea level and decision height (DH)
is referenced to the threshold elevation.
 The required visual reference means that section of the visual aids or of the
approach area which should have been in view for sufficient time for the pilot
to have made an assessment of the aircraft position and rate of change of
position, in relation to the desired flight path. In Category III operations with a
decision height the required visual reference is that specified for the particular
procedure and operation.
 Level flight after reaching DH/DA is prohibited. At or before reaching the
DH/DA, the decision must be made either continue the approach to land or to
go around.

Missed Approach Point (MAP)


The MAP specified on an instrument approach procedure is the point in an
instrument approach, where the prescribed missed approach procedure must be
initiated if the required visual reference has not been obtained.
The missed approach point may be:
 the point intersection of an electric glide path with the applicable DA or DH, or
 a navigational facility, or a fix, or
 a specified distance from the final approach fix or facility.
 DR by timing (FRG 6.4.6.03a)

Non-precision approach
Any approach other than a FULL ILS or PAR approach, i e: VOR, ADF, PPI, DME,
RNAV, ASR or Localizer (approaches without an electronic glide slope).
The alignment of the final approach track with the runway centerline determines
whether straight-in or circling minima are applicable.
A non-precision approach can be straight -in or circling.

Runway Visual Range (RVR)


RVR is an instrumentally derived value that represents the horizontal distance a
pilot will see down the runway from the approach end. It is the maximum distance
in the direction of the takeoff or landing, at which the runway or the specified lights
or markers delineating it, can be seen from a position above a specified point on
its centerline at a height corresponding to the average eye level of pilots on touch
down.
When an observer determines the visibility along the runway, the horizontal
distance is sometimes called “Runway Visibility Value” or RVV and may be used
in lieu of RVR.
On the Garuda Indonesia approach charts only the abbreviation RVR is used.

Takeoff weather minima


The minimum ceiling and visibility (or RVR), as well as maximum wind at which
pilot is allowed to make a takeoff.

Touch Down Zone (TDZ)


The portion of the runway beyond the threshold, where it is intended landing
airplanes first contact the runway. It extends starting from the threshold until
approximately 1/3 of the runway length downward.

Takeoff Ceiling minima


A minimum ceiling for takeoff is normally not prescribed. If minimum ceiling is
published in the charts, this is due to the requirement to see and avoid
obstacles.

Publication of takeoff minima


Usually Authority establishes takeoff minima for every airport that has
published Standard Instrument Procedures.
At airports where take-off minima are not established, the designated Standard
Takeoff Minima shown in table under OM-A Chapter 9.5.1-06.A is applied.
Only non-standard takeoff minima are published on the Route documentation
or Airport Charts.

B. OPERATIONAL APPLICATION
To commence a takeoff under conditions worse than stipulated in the takeoff
weather minima, is prohibited. It remains captain’s prerogative to delay a
takeoff even if the visibility or RVR is equal to or better than the published

deficiencies if such should be appropriate, are referred to as “prescribed
minima”. Related wind limitations can be found in the relevant section of the
FCOM/AOM.

Application of Reported Weather Minimums


 The ceiling and visibility values in the main body of the latest weather report
control for VFR and IFR takeoffs and landings and for instrument approach
procedures on all runways of an airport. However, if the latest weather
report, including an oral report from the control tower, contains a visibility
value specified as runway visibility or runway visual range for a particular
runway of an airport, that specified value controls for VFR and IFR landings
and takeoffs and straight-in instrument approaches for that runway.

 an instrument approach procedure may be initiated if the reported visibility


is less than the prescribed visibility
 The reported RVR prevails over the reported visibility. If for a particular
runway more than one RVR is reported, the usability of that runway for
landing must be based on the TDZ RVR.
 Reported RVR’ s along other portions of the runway control the roll-out
maneuver and 175 m is considered to be the minimum for adequate roll-
out guidance.
 In the event the TDZ RVR is not available, pilots must revert to the reported
general visibility
 Some transmissometer have a limited minimum measuring capacity,
depending on the distance between equipment components. An RVR
reading reported as “below 250 meters” may reflect any value between
0 and 250 meters.
 Transmissometer locations along a runway are being identified in
national AIP’s sometimes by letters of the alphabet. Some may be used
in R/T to aircraft, not necessarily however in the sequence of the
alphabet. Whatever method used to identify multiple RVR’s, the TDZ
RVR is always given first, followed by subsequent RVR along the
runway. The report may accordingly take the sequence C.B.A implying

Requirement for visual reference


The instrument approach shall not be continued below published operating
minima unless the required visual reference is obtained and can be maintained.
Before descending below the descent limit, the flight visibility must be equal to
or better than the prescribed visibility in order to provide an adequate visual
ground segment.
The length of the visual segment must enable pilots to see the visual cues
needed to assess the aircraft’s position, bank angle and cross track velocity
relative to the approach lights or the runway.
For roll reference, sights of one or more elements providing horizontal
information is required (cross bars, red side barrettes, and threshold).
This ground segment, which contains part of the final approach and/or
touchdown area, must be continuously in view to the pilot from the time he
reaches the descent limit up to and including touchdown and roll-out. Since for
a manual landing, the overriding requirement is for visual cues to be available,

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 11



OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.5 WEATHER

sufficient runway surface must be visible to manually control flare and


touchdown.

Commencement of the approach


In connection with the application of landing minima, an instrument approach
procedure is supposed to commence about 2 NM before the beginning of the
final approach segment, i.e. 2NM before the final approach facility, fix or point
(FAF, FAP).

RB. ILS CAT I OPERATION
Precision approach shall not be continued when conditions are below the
specified operating minima.
The following is applicable to operations with a DA not less than 200 feet HAT
and a visibility is not less than 800 m or not less than applicable RVR (Cat C
aircraft: 550m; Cat D aircraft: 600m).

Components-out
If one or more components of the ILS (GP-LLZ-OM) or of the visual aids
associated with the published approach procedure are reported inoperative,
the published minima may be affected. The appropriate minima may be found
by application of the components-out table.
When the OM is reported inoperative, it may be substituted, by the following
aids:
 Locator beacon on the centerline between FAP and 2 NM from touch down.
 PAR
 SRE
 DME provided equivalent DME distance is indicated on the approach chart.

10. RAISING OF WEATHER MINIMA


A. GENERAL
Published landing minima on Garuda Indonesia approach charts are based on
full operation of all components and visual aids associated with the particular
instrument approach procedure being used.
If the actual condition differs from those printed on the approach charts e.g.
inoperative ground component or visual aids, or if the aircraft has certain
deficiencies, the published landing minima may be affected.
If one or more components or visual aids are inoperative or not used, the
published landing minima should be raised to the minimum values listed on the
“components-out-table” as prescribed minima.
The corrections for aids not being operative are not being operative are not
accumulative. The higher of the applicable values shall be used.
If the related airborne equipment for a ground component is inoperative, the
increased minima applicable values shall be used.
Runway edge lighting, adequate for visual guidance, is required for night
operations.
When the facility providing course guidance is inoperative, the procedure is not
authorized (ILS, localizer, SRE and / or VOR).

 Unserviceable aircraft equipment, not directly related to the approach and
landing aids, but nevertheless hampering aircraft stability or handling, may
necessitate raising of weather minima. Such cases and weather minima are
covered in the FCOM/AOM for the aircraft type concerned.
 When the ground equipment is “ground checked only”, the relative landing
minima should be raised as shown on the “components-out-table”.

9.5.2 APPLICATION FOR FLIGHT PLANNING


01. INTRODUCTION
The policies as specified below are illustrated by examples. In these examinations
it is assumed for destination, the descent limit is 200 feet HAT and the minimum
visibility 600 m; while for alternate the minimum are, 500 feet ceiling and 1200 m
visibility.

02. PROB ABBREVIATIONS FOR “PROBABILITY”


PROB followed by a percentage (rounded to the nearest ten) indicates the
probability that a certain change or value will occur.
A probability of an alternative value or change of 50 per cent or more should not
be considered a probability but instead should be indicated, as necessary, by use
of the change indicators “BECMG” or “TEMPO” or by subdivision of the validity
period using the abbreviation “FM”. The probability group should not be used to
qualify the change indicator “BCMG” nor the time indicator “FM”.

04. BECMG
 This change indicator describes changes where the conditions are expected to
reach or pass specified threshold values at a regular or irregular rate at an
unspecified time during the time period. The time period should normally not
exceed 2 hours but in any case should not exceed 4 hours.
 If forecast indicates BECMG from condition above to below limits, the
aerodrome shall, for flight planning purpose, be considered below limit for an
ETA that falls in or after the entire period for which the deterioration is forecast.
And only above limits for an ETA prior to the beginning of this period.

Example:
 Forecast from 1200 to 2100: VAR/05, visibility 2000 m, BECMG FM1700
TL1900 500m BR. The forecast shall be considered above limits for an ETA up
to 1700 and below limits for an ETA between 1700-1900.
 If the forecast indicates BECMG from conditions below to conditions above
limits, the aerodrome shall, for flight planning purposes be considered below
limits for an ETA up to the end of the entire period for which the improvement
is forecast. And above limits for an ETA after the end of this period.
In other word, during the BECMG period, the worst condition is always counted for
flight planning purposes.

A. GENERAL
When LVPs are to be initiated depends from aerodrome to aerodrome and local
conditions and available facilities.
The flight crewmembers must be properly qualified prior to commencing a LVTO
or a CATT II / III approach.
The proper information about the LVPs must be received from ATC before
commencing these operations.
The following points are included in LVP:
 Manual takeoff
 Auto-coupled approach to below the DH. Flare, landing and roll-out manual.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 29



OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.5 WEATHER

 Auto-coupled approach with auto-flare, auto-landing and manual roll-out


 Auto-coupled approach with auto-flare, auto-landing and auto-roll-out when
RVR < 400 m
The PIC must specify the detailed operating procedures and instructions found in
respective Operations Manual/FCOM/AOM:
 The effect on minima caused by ground obstacles before departure and in flight
 Procedures for the takeoff, flare, landing, roll-out and missed approach
 Procedures to be followed in case of abnormal situations like failures, warnings
etc.
 The required minimum visual reference
 Requirement of altitude callouts above 200 feet based on the radio altimeter
and for one pilot to monitor the instruments till the landing is completed
 Use of information related to multiple RVR assessments, runway contamination
(wet, frost, ...) wind shear, wind, turbulence, ...
 Information about the maximum deviation allowed from ILS glide path and/or
localizer

Operations below RVR 175 m (600 feet)


For operations below RVR 175 m (600 feet), a predetermined taxi route must be
used from the landing runway to the ramp. These taxi plans are more detailed and
involve not only operations on the airport surface but also in the non-movement
areas such as ramps and gates.

C. SURFACE MOVEMENT GUIDANCE AND CONTROL SYSTEM (SMGCS)


(1) SMGCS Procedures and Charts
The pilot will find these approved procedures on the specific SMGCS airport
chart. These procedures should be included in the approach briefing when any
CAT III approach is anticipated. It is necessary to review some of the lighting
and markings which will be found at various airports as part of their individual
SMGCS plans. All airports do not have all of these features.
For information concerning a particular airport refer to that airport's SMGCS
chart or Low Visibility Procedures located on the airport chart.

Stop bar Lights


Stop bars are required at intersections of an illuminated (centerline lighted)
taxiway and an active runway for operations less than 175m (600 feet) RVR.
However, where stop bars are installed, they will be operated up to RVR 350
m (1200 feet).
These lights consist of a row of red unidirectional, in-pavement lights installed
along the holding position marking. When extinguished by the controller, they
confirm clearance for the pilot or vehicle operator to enter the runway.
Controlled stop bars operate in conjunction with green centerline lead-on lights,
which extend from the stop bar location onto the runway.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 31



OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.5 WEATHER

Graphic depictions of normal operation of stop bars include:


 When ATC issues a clearance to the pilot to enter the runway they activate
a timer. This action causes the red stop bar to be extinguished and the
green lead-on lights to illuminate. (Refer to figure 1)

Figure 1
 After traveling approximately 150 feet beyond the stop bar, the aircraft or

PY
vehicle activates a sensor. This sensor relights the red stop bar and

 At no time will a pilot cross an illuminated red stop bar! Unauthorized
runway entry may result in grave consequences.
 Some entrance to runways will have uncontrolled stop bars which will be
continually illuminated during below RVR 175m (600 feet).

Runway Guard Lights


Runway guard lights, either elevated (a pair on both sides) or in-pavement (a
row across the entire taxiway), will be installed at all taxiways which provide
access to an active runway. They consist of alternately flashing yellow lights.
These lights are used to denote both the presence of an active runway and
identify the location of a runway holding position marking

Taxiway Centerline Lighting


 Taxiway Centerline lights guide ground traffic under low visibility conditions
and during darkness. These lights consist of green in-pavement lights.
 After landing and proceeding down the runway to the point of exit, the pilot
will pick up the taxiway centerline light running parallel to the runway
centerline lights and will follow them off the active runway.
 These lights will alternate amber and green to indicate to the pilot that
the aircraft is still within the ILS critical area.
 When the taxiway centerline lights change to all green, this indicates
that the aircraft is moving out of the critical area.

Geographic Position Markings


ATC and pilots will verify the position of aircraft and vehicles using geographic

the airport manager.
Most airports do not restrict taxiway usage at this point. However, it is
imperative that the airport specific SMGCS chart be reviewed for any
restriction or special procedures applicable for operations below RVR 350
m (1200 feet) to RVR 600.

OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.5 WEATHER

 When the weather is anticipated to or falls below RVR 175 m (600 feet)
additional measures are activated to ensure the safe movement of ground
traffic. ATC will normally place a message on ATIS similar to the following:
Example: "Special low visibility procedures less than RVR 175 m (600 feet)
in effect, inform ATC of landing minimum capabilities."
 The appropriate SMGCS airport chart will detail any taxi restrictions or
special instructions for the below RVR 175 m (600 feet) operations.
 ATC is required to inform the crew of any limitation which would affect
low visibility operations. (e.g. inoperative lighting on taxiways)

Ramp Operations
The appropriate personnel will be notified to stand ready to assist with incoming
aircraft and all operators of ground handling ramp vehicles will be informed of
the need to be alert for ramp activity

Aircraft
 Upon hearing the ATIS message, aircraft will notify ATC of their approach
minima and then follow ATC instructions as usual.
 After landing on the runway, follow the special procedure on the SMGCS
airport chart, making all requested reports to Tower or Ground as indicated.

 The pilot may request to be towed in or a follow-me vehicle to the gate. The
ramp procedures will be listed on the individual airport chart. These
SMGCS procedures have been established to authorize those aircraft so
certificated to land with RVR as low as RVR 100 m (300 feet) and then
continue to the gate when visibility is restricted. It is imperative that a full
review of individual airport procedures and appropriate briefings be
included whenever these procedures are implemented

D. LOW VISIBILITY TAKEOFF


A Low Visibility Takeoff is a takeoff when the RVR of a runway is less than 400 m.
It is very important that a pilot shall not conduct LVTO when the RVR is below the
limit for lower than standard take off minima in OM-A Chapter 9.5.1-06.
Prior to starting the takeoff, the RVR/VIS in the takeoff direction must be equal to
or better than the applicable minima and the weather at the airport and the
condition of the runway intended to be used shall not prevent safe operation.
Prior to commencing a Low Visibility Takeoff, the status of the visual and non-visual
aids must be sufficient.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.5 WEATHER

Operational Applications
 Visual Range
The observed visual range is established by adding the obscured segment below
cockpit nose, 15 m for CAT C or 25 m for CAT D aircraft, to the visual segment.
The visual segment is determined by multiplying the number of light-interval by the
applicable spacing as published on the approach chart.
 Application of VIS
When only general Visibility (VIS) is given:
 The observed visual range from the cockpit must be equal to or better than the
prescribed minimum.
 A uniform atmospheric condition must exist without sharp variations in visibility
due to fog patches.
 Application of RVR
 Reported RVR take control over VIS
 Published values are applicable to all relevant section of the runway. If more
than one RVR is given, the lowest (relevant) RVR must be at or above
prescribed minimum.
 If the RVR at the beginning of the runway is not available or below minimum

When normally a computer flight plan is delivered, and at the last moment this flight
plan is not received by station concerned (e.g. due to computer outage or
communication failure), the most recent computer flight plan in file at that station,
that was made out via the desired route, may be copied.
This flight plan copy must be updated with the latest available data from the Met-
office (winds and temperature aloft, forecasts destination, alternates, en-route
alternate, etc.), estimated ZFW, aircraft type, cruise system, flight levels, NOTAMs,
etc.
In case of a manually created flight plan for such a stretch is necessary, the
navigation data from the most recent computer flight plan via the desired route, can
be used.

9.6.2 ATC FLIGHT PLAN


Garuda Indonesia requires all commercial flights shall be conducted under an IFR
Flight Plan and in accordance with an IFR clearance. However, when certain portions
of a commercial flight is authorized to be conducted under VFR, provided procedures
that describe how an IFR clearance is to be obtained and/or cancelled.
If the whole Flight Plan is submitted under IFR, the IFR flight plan must not be
canceled.
No clearance, requiring to maintain own separation and to remain in VMC for the cruise
portion of the flight in IFR, shall be accepted.
For limited portions of climb, descent and approach an exception may be made by day,
when non-acceptance of such clearance would result in unacceptable fuel penalties or
delays, provided:
Weather conditions are such that flight in uninterrupted VMC is possible throughout
such portion of flight.
 Effective radar service is available.
 “Known Traffic” information is provided by appropriate ATS unit and can be
assessed by PIC relative to his own flight.
 Separation from other traffic involved i.e. either close to relevant procedural
separation standards or such traffic is in sight and positively identified.

Individual flight plans must be submitted to ATC at least 30 minutes prior to
departure, depending on local or regional regulations.
Note:
 Composite Flight Plan is Flight plans which specify VFR operation for one
portion of a flight, and IFR for another portion of flight vice versa.
 In some countries submission of the flight plan is required three hours or more
in advance when Air Traffic Flight Management (ATFM) measures are in force
on the intended routing.
 Notify ATC about early or delayed departure in excess of 30 minutes.
 Notification of flow control delays is not required.

b. Repetitive Flight Plan


Certain states and airlines, mainly in Europe, use the term Repetitive Flight Plan
(RPL), where ATC flight plans for schedule line flights are stored by all ATC units
concerned, and therefore need not be filed or transmitted as for individual flights.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 3



OM – A 9. OPERATING PROCEDURES
9.6 FLIGHT PLANS

RPL lists are kept by CGKOGWGA submitted to the appropriate states, and are
kept up date for permanent changes. The validity period is the entire winter or
summer schedule.
Note: As a policy RPL’s are normally submitted for flight for which standard
routing(s) and flight level(s) can be established. This will limit RPL’s to
flights up to approximately 3.00 hours block time.
The RPL is based on the following criteria:
 time are off-block times (UTC) and total elapse times;
 cruising speeds (TAS) are rounded-off to the nearest 5 Knots;
 cruising level(s) and routing as selected for prevailing conditions (on the
company flight plan both cruising levels and routing may be optimized for
forecast condition).

Incidental changes
 Changes of route, line number, aerodrome of departure and/or destination
This requires cancellation of the stored flight plan for the day, followed by
submission of an individual ATC flight plan.
 Change of aircraft type, speed and/or cruising level

PY
This requires notification at the ATC unit at the aerodrome of departure as soon

9.6.3 COMPUTER FLIGHT PLAN


The NavTech, computer flight plans (CFP) are retrieved from NavTech Data Plan. The
processing in the computer deals with the handling of:
 Navigational data
 Aircraft (performance) data
 ATC and company data
 Meteorological data
NavTech utilizes meteorological data, which are provided by both the (US) National
Weather Service and (UK) National Weather Bureau. These weather (observation)
data are transmitted twice daily giving the wind and temperature for the 850, 700, 500,
400, 300, 250 and 200 mbar levels and the tropopause height, and are broadcast to
Jet Plan users (dispatch office) through SITA telex as can be seen in the following

NavTech does not display in detail the prognostic time used, the PROGS 021200Z
printed on the CFP simply shows date and observation time.

Each prognostic is therefore available twice in the system, based on different


observation times. For flight planning calculation and track selection, NavTech also
applies the term “rolling progs”. The system selects the PROG based on the ETD and
the planned duration of the flight. For each phase of the flight the most appropriate
prognostic is selected. In the transition period between subsequent prognostics,
interpolated data is used.
In case of (considerable) delays, a new CFP with the revised ETD should be produced.

 For Wide Body Aircraft (B777-300ER, B747-400 and A330), the Potable water is
not included in DOW. It will be adjusted in the Load Trim Sheet/ Load Sheet
accordingly.
Security Item Box / Security Item Case will be included in adjusted DOW depend
on Route and/or Aircraft registration.
The Dry Operating Weight serves as a basis for the composition of the operating
weight. The DOW for each aircraft type and route area is according to a
predetermined value inserted in the DCS (Departure Control System).

B. STANDARD WEIGHTS
1) Passenger
In connection with tariff regulations, aircraft loading and seat allocation, the
following categories of passengers are specified:
Adults : A passenger is considered an adult from the age of 12 years and
older.
Child : A passenger is considered a child from the age of 2 years up to the
age of 12 years.

actual weight of each passenger and his cabin baggage shall be used
instead.

(b) Baggage Weight


In principle the actual baggage weight must be used for load-sheet
calculation. When large quantities of baggage are considered not
proportional, the actual weight of these disproportionate pieces shall be
used.

(2) Methods of Preparation of Weight and Balance Calculations


 The load planning stage consist of three steps:
 Weight Check.
 Estimate aircraft weight shall not exceed the maximum
structural limited weight and the performance limited weight.
 Estimate traffic load shall not exceed the allowable traffic load.
 Volume Check and Load Distribution.
The distribution of the load shall be made taking into consideration
maximum weights and volumes for the various part of the aircraft.
 Balance Check.
 For calculation of loaded index and MAC (%), an operational envelope is
established. The operational envelope is the certified envelope curtailed
with respect to the following items:
 In flight movement of passenger and crewmembers.
 Passenger seating variations.
 Cargo loading variation.
 Fuel density variation based on standard SG of 0.793 kg/l.

Whenever it becomes necessary to remove a passenger from an aircraft, the flight
crew must inform Garuda Station Officer who, in turn, must take the necessary actions,
considering assistance of local law enforcement officers and including offloading
procedures of his baggage. Passengers who have been refused embarkation or who
have been disembarked are left with the airport authorities.
All Company personnel engaged in passenger handling and loading, including other
crewmembers, handling agents and check-in personnel, must alert the Pilot in

10.7 SCHEDULE IRREGULARITIES


01. GENERAL
Under certain conditions the company is allowed to take specific measures which
deviate from the normal IATA regulations.
These conditions are:
 Failure to stop at the passenger’s destination because of overflying or
diversion.
 Lost connections (if the passenger was booked a seat on a connecting flight).
 Delay at departure and on arrival.
 Cancellation of a flight.
 Inability to provide previously booked seats.
It is the company principle to reduce to a minimum the resulting inconveniences
caused to the passengers, so as to prevent Garuda Indonesia suffering a possible
loss of goodwill.
It will be obvious, that the execution of this principle cannot be entirely laid down in
clean-cut instructions, but that a great deal will have to be left to the exercise of
sound judgment and insight of the personnel concerned.
The following guideline may be useful:

 In case of a deviation from schedule involving a prolonged delay, of if the
R disposition of the passengers renders it desirable to do so, it may be required
to entertain the passengers in some other way, e.g. by arranging sight-seeing
tours etc. In arranging such entertainment all elements of competition should
be avoided.
 Refreshments and/or meals, suitable to the time, day and season, may be
offered.
 Dependent on the time of the day and the duration of the delay, hotel
accommodation may be offered.

02. DELAYS
During a delay, the Station Manager will decide whether the Purser/Senior Flight
Attendant will remain with the passengers in the waiting room in order to provide
the necessary information and service.
In the event of a short delay, a flight attendant will remain on board with the pantry
and cabin supplies, including the passenger’s hand luggage.
On board the aircraft, the following should be announced via PAS, either by the
PIC or the Purser or Senior Flight Attendant as mutually arranged:

 Cause and expected duration of delays arising after embarkation.


 Apologies on behalf of Garuda Indonesia for delays that took place before
embarkation.
The letter could be included in the Purser’s welcome-on-board address.

03. DIVERSION
Safety of the flight is of first concern and not only factors mentioned under pre-flight
alternate selection should be reconsidered but also the actual situation, weather
and ATC delays.
The second item to consider is the economical factor. Circumstances (mainly fuel
and time) permitting, and if possible after consulting the station manager or System
Operation Control, the most suitable (operationally and economically) aerodrome
should be selected.
If before takeoff it is likely or already known that the aircraft will have to land at an
alternate airport, the passengers must be informed accordingly as soon as is
practicable.
Should, in view of this information, a passenger express the wish to travel by other
means of transport, his/her wish must be honored and complied with as far as
possible.

The passenger must be informed beforehand, if before takeoff it is already known
that it may not be possible to land at an intermediate station, even if a technical
landing is concerned. If the chance of landing at passenger’s destination airport is
small, the passenger can be refused transportation.

05. REPORTING
Schedule irregularities should be reported by the PIC in a trip report, while
additional information regarding passenger’s welfare should be given by the Purser
in a service remark.
Reports on discussions held with the passengers, or on difficulties experienced

These matters will always be handled in concert with the Station Manager and the
PIC of the flight involved. Who is ultimately responsible for the safety and the
operational feasibility of the operation as a whole.
If the District Manager intends to take measures beyond the prescribed limitations,
the action will always be subject to the decision of Flight Progress if time and

“matter of life and death” shipments or aircraft spare parts (for own aircraft on
the ground en-route).
A Station Manager is authorized to delay a freighter service for 15 minutes
without the approval of Flight Progress Unit.

C. CATERING
In cases of possible last minute delay due to incomplete board supplies (e.g.
defective coffee machine, shortage on meals etc.) only after due consultation
with Purser and PIC it will be decided if suppletion or repairs are indispensable
for the quality of our product, and delay is justified. Should the decision be
against the delay, the PIC must be informed.

Exceptional Cases
In exceptional cases, Station Managers may request Flight Progress Unit for
permission to deviate from the basic rule for other reasons than those stipulated
above.
 Recall
The measure of recalling a flight for the sole purpose of meeting
commercial interests is a matter which can only be administered with
extreme caution and only in extreme circumstances. Since the time factor
in almost any case will prevent directions from Flight Progress Unit, the
District Manager is solely and completely responsible for any such decision,
bearing in mind the far-reaching effect of this measure on the reliability and
economy of operations. At any time the PIC of the flight remains
responsible for the operational feasibility of the return flight.

 Diversions
Since time will almost in any case permit prior consultation, the decision to
intentionally divert a flight for commercial reasons, e.g. overflying stations
where no load is committed or an intermediate landing for reasons of
payload or to pick-up (stranded) passengers, will always be subject to the
central directions of Flight Progress Unit, if the procedure is not separately
covered.

From both the majority of its customer’s and the company’s own point of

That is to say that, under certain circumstances, if continuation of the flight
to another alternate or to the next scheduled stop is operationally feasible,
this action may be preferable with a view to securing connections or to meet
other commercial requirements. If time and circumstances permit, Flight
Progress Unit’s directions will be included in the decision.

PASSENGER INFORMATION ON BOARD
It is the PIC’s responsibility to maintain contact with his/her passengers in order to
ensure that they receive the best service possible and are kept informed about details
of the flight and especially deviations from normal operation.
A reduced level of passenger dissatisfaction will result if carefully formulated
information is given, especially during the delays. In such situations the PIC/Station
Supervisor should weigh any matters very carefully.
The Public Address (PA) System is very effective service tool to use. It should be used
whenever cockpit workload permits to promote greater confidence in Garuda
Indonesia service.
The PIC may delegate PA to the Copilot especially if this Copilot has knowledge of
specific or relevant language.

01. RESPONSIBILITY FOR INFORMATION

02. COORDINATION
The PIC should ensure that there is no miscommunication with respect to

coordinated with the Flight Attendant in order to avoid duplication of information.
Similarly, the Flight Attendant should closely coordinate with the PIC to ensure that
no miscommunication arise.
Care must be taken not to disturb passengers with routine announcements during
the night or while showing the movie.
Whenever delays or irregularities occur, the Flight Crewmember might be busy with
handling a situation operationally/technically. Therefore, if a delay or irregularity
becomes obvious (e.g. if the aircraft is returning to the tarmac or has rejected its
takeoff and is back at taxi speed or prepares for landing shortly after takeoff), the
Flight Attendant shall contact the Flight Crewmember on his/her own initiative. He
will seek information on the details of the irregularity to be able to advise the
passenger duty, if so required by the PIC.

03. PRESENTATION OF INFORMATION


Most passengers like to be kept informed of the progress of the flight and PIC
should be mindful of this.
Passengers are a “Captive audience” and, as experience has shown,
announcements via the PA find a mixed acceptance. Therefore, the PIC shall
select length, contents and number of announcements so as to make them as
pleasing as possible to those who like them and as nonirritating as possible to
those who dislike them.
Generally PA announcements should be made during the following phases of flight:
 Prior to start when delays of 5 minutes or more occur.
 During prolonged periods of taxi or protected queuing periods at the holding
runway. During such periods, opportunity should be taken to inform passengers
of the reason of such taxi or delay and also inform them, when applicable of
takeoff direction and where to look for local features during takeoff climb out.
 Early in the flight phase of general flight plan. This should cover such as height,
routing, speed, expecting en route weather conditions, ETA at destination in
local time and time check or time different where necessary. Metric units
should be used whenever possible.

In the event of Go-Around, passengers are usually concerned about it. They
therefore ought to be informed of the reasons for Go-Around and what
subsequent course of action is being taken, this will be included diversion to
alternate airport.
It is preferable to make rather brief announcements, but to inform the passengers
repeatedly. In order to avoid monotony, announcements shall be as varied as
possible.
The following hints might be helpful:
 Refrain the distance of the microphone not more than 10 cm away from the lip
 Introduce yourself before the first announcements.
 Stick to facts, use direct and simple expressions and well-known geographical
names for position reports.
 Do not use technical terms, which passengers might not understand.
 Avoid expressing opinions.
 Be cautious in using humor. Passengers might disagree on what is funny!
 Smile to the microphone.

 “Promotional” type announcements from the pilot are not desired. “This is
Captain…. (xyz), welcome aboard Garuda Indonesia Flight…. (nnn)” followed
by flight information, pre-arrival information, and
“Thank you for being aboard with Garuda Indonesia” is sufficient.
Passenger’s announcements should be made in a positive manner as far as
possible.
Expressions, which could scare the passengers, such as “Bad weather”, “Heavy
turbulence”, etc., should be avoided when informing about weather conditions.
A delay shall not be mentioned repeatedly. After one announcement and one
apology, further information should refer to “Remaining flight time” or “ETA” only.
The Flight will automatically include an apology in the “Welcome Announcement”
if a flight is delayed substantially.
Cockpit announcements shall normally be made in the two or three languages used
by the majority of passengers and include, at least alternately in Bahasa Indonesia
and English. It is recommended to delegate announcements in languages in which
one is not sufficiently fluent. In such cases coordination may be necessary with the
Flight Attendant and inflight Interpreter if present.

Suitable information should, if possible, be transmitted before passengers start
impatient inquiries, but not before a sound explanation of the circumstances can
be given.
Information should be based on the following principles:
 Reasonable and realistic statement of duration of a delay and the reason of the
delay. This should first be checked with the Engineer and Station Manager
when available.
 Once a defined time has been given, this time should in no case be extended
further without informing the passengers accordingly.
 If no time statement can be made, the passengers should be told so in every
15 minutes. A sample announcement could take the following form: “For the
time being I cannot give you any definite information but I will advise you of the
expected time for departure as soon as possible. More details will be given to
you (A further announcement will be made) in about half-an-hour. In the
meantime please remain on board (or Garuda Indonesia offers you
refreshment in the waiting lounge/restaurant)”.

06. BRIEFING OF PASSENGERS IN EMERGENCY


Proper briefing of passengers is most important to prevent shock or panic.
It is of special importance that the PIC performs the passenger briefing personally.
He/She shall explain the situation in a calm and professional manner so as to
encourage the passengers to have confidence in the crewmember’s ability to cope
with the emergency. Only if conditions prevent the PIC from informing the
passenger himself/herself, he/she may designate and brief another crewmember
to perform this duty.
The detailed briefing by the Flight Attendants shall include instructions, as
appropriate, refer also AOM and Emergency Checklist.

07. DISCUSSION ON OPERATIONAL MATTERS IN FRONT PASSENGERS


Crewmember should avoid discussion among themselves, within the hearing of
passengers, any matters relating to operational difficulties or to the safety of the
Company operations.
If approached on this subject, the PIC and other crewmember should not

10.9.3.2 WEATHER CONDITIONS


A. GENERAL
Aircraft on the ground are susceptible to accumulation of ice formations under
various atmospheric conditions. Some of these are:
 Freezing rain and drizzle. Liquid precipitation existing at ambient
temperatures below 00 C where rain droplets remain in a super-cooled state
and freeze upon contact with objects on the ground.
 Frozen precipitation such as snow, sleet, or hail. The type of snow
(wet/dry) is temperature/dew-point related. For wet snow, the temperature
and the dew point are normally within 1C (2F) of each other and the
ambient temperature approximately –4C to 1C (25F to 33F). Dry snow

occurs with the temperature/dew point more than 6C (10F) apart with both
below –8C (18F).
 Super cooled ground fog and ice clouds. Clouds of super cooled water
droplets that form a deposit of ice on objects in cold weather conditions.
 Conditions of high relative humidity that may produce frost formations on
aircraft surfaces having a temperature at or below the freezing point. Frost
accumulations are common during overnight parking and after landing
where aircraft surface/fuel temperatures remain below freezing following
descent from altitude. Flight operations with up to 1/8 inch of frost on the
underside of the wing due to cold soaked fuel are permitted on aircraft
operated by Garuda Indonesia.
 When frozen precipitations covers existing clear ice, the potential exists for
de-icing crews to overlook the clear ice that remains after the aircraft has
been deiced. Once the frozen precipitation has been removed, the residual
deicing fluid may camouflage the clear ice by leaving a shiny surface that
gives the appearance of deicing fluid on a clean metal surface. The wing
root area presents a particular problem because it is difficult to view from
the ground or inside the aircraft. Ice breaking loose from this area poses
the particular risk of impacting empennage surfaces.

 Lowest Operational Use Temperature (LOUT): The lowest operational use
temperature (LOUT) is the higher (warmer) of: a) The lowest temperature
at which the fluid meets the aerodynamic acceptance test (according to
AS5900) for a given type (high speed or low speed) of aeroplane or b) The
freezing point of the fluid plus the freezing point buffer of 10 °C (18 ºF) for
Type I fluid and 7 °C (13 ºF) for Type II, III or IV fluids.
 Rime ice is Small frozen water droplets, spherical opaque/milky granular
appearance looking similar to frost in a freezer. Typically rime ice has low
adhesion to the surface and its surrounding rime ice particles.

B. FLIGHT PLANNING
Ice accumulation can also occur from ground operations or conditions. Some
of these ground operations/conditions are:
 Operations on ramps, taxiways, and runways containing moisture, slush or
snow.
 Re-circulated snow blown airborne by surface winds, other aircraft, or
ground support equipment.

10.9.3.3 EFFECTS OF ICE ON THE AIRCRAFT


A. CONTAMINATION EFFECTS
The “clean aircraft” concept as derived from CASR 121.629 that states that no
person may takeoff an aircraft when frost, snow, or ice is adhering to the wings,
control surfaces of the aircraft. The reason for this regulation is that ice
accumulation on the aircraft can have very significant and sometimes
devastating results on aircraft equipment and performance.
Contamination from frost, snow, or ice changes the aerodynamic design of the
aircraft – always for the worse. Hence, components of an aircraft affected by
contamination generally fall into the following categories: Lifting devices;

contamination of the center and aft portion of

Angle of attack is another victim of contamination. With a clean wing, the


required lift for normal takeoff is below maximum lift. With a frost-covered wing,
the lift for takeoff may be close to maximum lift and near the stall speed. With
an ice covered wing, the critical angle-of-attack is even lower, and on airplane
rotation for takeoff, the wing may never produce the required lift before stall.
Furthermore, the angle of attack sensors assume a clean wing and make no
adjustment for the effect of contamination. This condition increases the
probability that a stall will occur prior to activation of the stall warning devices.
With ice, or any type of contamination, the wing has less ability to generate lift
and it stalls at lower angle of attack. Additionally, stall characteristics are
unpredictable depending upon the type and the amount of contaminations.
Contamination on the wings as well as over the body of the airplane creates
additional skin friction, thus producing parasite drag. Additionally, the
cumulative weight of the ice on the entire airplane can be significant.
The center of lift is affected by the location of the contamination on the wings.
With swept back wings, if the outboard/aft area of the wing is more
contaminated than the inboard/forward area, more total lift will be produced

inboard/forward, the lifting force move forward and the result is nose up pith
during takeoff. A heavy nose situation can occur if the contamination is
concentrated on the inboard/forward areas of the wings.
Effect of Airfoil Contamination
 Decreased lift
 Higher stall speed
 Lower stall AOA
 Increased drag/weight
 Displacement of center of lift.

C. AIRPLANE SYSTEM
Power available may be reduced due to contamination of the engine inlets.
Control surfaces can freeze in place or be restricted in movement if
contamination is not properly cleaned from critical areas. Damage to control
surfaces may also occur if they are moved while ice is adhering to critical areas.
Landing gear mechanism may be damaged if not properly cleared of ice
formations. Snow/slush accumulated on landing gear mechanism and
deflectors may separate on takeoff and cause airplane damage.
Flight, engine, and other instruments, as well as automated systems, may

OM – A 10.9 DE-ICING AND ANTI-ICING ON THE GROUND

Procedure precautions
One-step de-icing/anti-icing is performed with a heated anti-icing fluid (see *anti-
icing fluid).The fluid used to deice the aeroplane remains on the aeroplane surfaces
to provide limited anti-ice capability.
The correct fluid concentration shall be chosen with regard to desired holdover time
and is dictated by outside air temperature and weather conditions (see Application
Tables 1 and 2).

Two-step de-icing/anti-icing (When the first step is performed with de-icing fluid):
 The correct fluid(s) shall be chosen with regard to ambient temperature. After
de-icing, a separate overspray of anti-icing fluid shall be applied to protect the
relevant surfaces thus providing maximum possible anti-ice capability. The
second step is performed with anti-icing fluid.
 The correct fluid concentration shall be chosen with regard to desired holdover
time and is dictated by outside air temperature and weather conditions (see
Application Tables 1 and 2).
The second step shall be performed before first step fluid freezes (typically within
3 min), if necessary area by area.
When applying the second step fluid, use a spraying technique, which completely

that could reasonably be expected under conditions of precipitation. However,
due to the many variables that can influence holdover time, these times should
not be considered as minimums or maximums as the actual time of protection
may be extended or reduced, depending upon the particular conditions existing
at the time.
The lower limit of the published time span is used to indicate the estimated time
of protection during moderate precipitation and the upper limit indicates the
estimated time of protection during light precipitation.
The responsibility for the application of these data remains with the user.

CAUTION: Heavy precipitation rates or high moisture content, high wind


velocity or jet blast may reduce holdover time below the lowest
time stated in the range. Holdover time may also be reduced
when aeroplane skin temperature is lower than OAT.
Therefore, the indicated times should be used only in
conjunction with a pre-takeoff check.
Note:
 Certain fluids may be qualified according to fluid specifications but may not
have been tested during winter to develop the holdover time guidelines
specified in this document.
Holdover time guidelines in this document are not applicable to these fluids.
 For use of holdover time guidelines consult fluid manufacturer’s technical
literature for minimum viscosity limits of fluids as applied to aeroplane
surfaces.
 A degraded Type II, Type III, or Type IV fluid may be used, provided the
holdover time guidelines for Type I fluids (Table 3 or 4 as applicable) are
used.
A Type II, Type III, or Type IV fluid is considered to be degraded if the
viscosity is below the minimum limit as provided by the fluid manufacturer.
The Type II fluid holdover time guideline (Table 5) may be used with

C PY 4 4 9
degraded Type IV fluids only after substantiation by holdover time testing.

R ose As a rule of thumb, visibility during a heavy snowfall would be less than ¼
mile, moderate snowfall visibility would be between ¼ to 1 mile, and light
snowfall visibility would be greater than 1 mile. When using this rule of
thumb, ensure that the reduction in visibility is caused by snowfall only and
not assisted by fog.

C. FLUID EFFECTS ON TAXIWAY/RUNWAY FRICTION COEFFICIENTS.


The de-ice/anti-ice fluids on taxiway/runway can affect braking coefficients;
therefore caution shall be used at all times when maneuvering in the areas
where the fluids have accumulated. Nose wheel steering and braking action
may both be affected by lack of traction on contaminated surfaces.

D. HEALTH/ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
Brief, single exposure to de-icing fluids that might be encountered during pre-
flight is not likely to cause irritation to either eyes or skin. Inhalation of the mists
or high concentration of the heated vapors may cause respiratory irritation. If
de-icing is in progress upon arrival of the airplane, avoid any such spray or
mist.

NOTE: For heated fluid and fluid mixtures, a temperature not less than 60 ºC (140 ºF) at the nozzle
is desirable. When the first step is performed using a fluid/water mixture with a freezing point above
OAT, the temperature at the nozzle shall be at least 60 °C (140 ºF) and at least 1 liter/m2 (~2
Gals/100 ft2) must be applied to the surfaces to be de-iced. Upper temperature limit shall not
exceed fluid and aircraft manufacturer's recommendations.
CAUTION: Wing skin temperatures may be lower than OAT. If this condition is identified, it shall
be verified if a stronger mixture (more glycol) may need to be used to ensure a sufficient freezing
point buffer. As fluid freezing may occur, 50/50 Type II, III, or IV fluid shall not be used for the anti-
icing step of a cold soaked wing as indicated by frost or ice on the lower surface of the wing in the
area of the fuel tank.
CAUTION: An insufficient amount of anti-icing fluid, especially in the second step of a two-step
procedure, may cause a substantial loss of holdover time. This is particularly true when using a
Type I fluid mixture for the first step (de-icing).
CAUTION: Some fluids shall only be used undiluted. For some fluids the lowest operational use
temperature (LOUT) may differ. For details refer to fluid manufacturer's documentation.

A. PRE-DEPARTURE INSTRUCTIONS
(1) Flight Crewmembers
 To take a maximum benefit of the anti-icing protection, the de-/anti-icing
treatment should be given after all passengers have boarded, all doors
closed and the aircraft is ready to depart.
 Engines and APU may be running during de-/anti-icing, but air-
conditioning and/or bleed air should be switched off as per AOM
procedures.
(2) Ground Engineers
 Reasonable precautions must be made to minimize fluid entry into
engines and other intakes.
 De-/anti-icing fluids must not be directed into the orifices of pitot heads,
static vents or angle of attack sensors.
 Before starting engines check that compressors and turbines are free
to rotate.
 Both wings and both stabilizers must be treated, not on side only.
 Any traces of de-/anti-icing fluids on cockpit windows must be removed
prior to departure. Particular attention should be paid to windows fitted
with wipers.

b) Two step de-icing/anti-icing
Two distinct steps; The first step (deicing) is used to remove all frozen
contaminants from all surfaces and components (landing gear, etc.) and
is followed by the second step (anti-icing) with a separate fluid
application.
Anti-icing fluid is applied before the first step deicing fluids freezes (in
case of severe freezing precipitation, this can be within 3 minutes) and
become ineffective. This process provides the maximum possible anti-
icing capability. This two-step procedure is accomplished with:
 Heated Type I and then another application of heated Type I, or
 Heated Type I and then an application of Cold Type II.
If for any reason the deicing process is interrupted, the process must
be restarted from the beginning.

OM – A 10.9 DE-ICING AND ANTI-ICING ON THE GROUND

(4) OFF-GATE PROCEDURES


There will be times when de-icing/anti-icing will be accomplished in
locations other than at the gate. During the Pre-Flight External Check the
engines should be inspected to ensure they are free of ice prior to starting.
At a remote location, a ground electrical power and air cart will be provided
when the APU is inoperative, or the crew may elect to keep engines
running. During de-icing, ensure the airplane packs are off and the
APU/engine bleed valves are closed. The bleed valves should not be
opened and the airplane packs should not be turned on until at least one
minute after deicing is completed. De-icing fluid, if allowed to enter the APU
inlet, may cause a white acrid smoke or enter the airplane through the air
conditioning system.

(5) INSPECTION CHECK


In the Pre-Takeoff Check and Pre-Takeoff Contamination Check, attempt
to view the middle third of the upper wing surface and leading edge area
for any frost, snow or ice buildup. If the airplane has been deiced/anti-iced,
the surfaces should appear to have glossy sheen and be free from any
contamination.

must be accomplished within 5 minutes of takeoff, or Type II fluid must be
applied and takeoff accomplished within the determined holdover time.

(6) PRE-FLIGHT EXTERNAL ICE INSPECTIONS


The exterior pre-flight inspection is an important part of safe winter
operations. During pre-flight inspection, assure the aircraft surfaces or
those areas affected by contamination are free of frost, snow, and ice. The
Pre-Flight External Ice inspection should include those critical areas listed
here as well as those areas identified in the appropriate operating manual.
The De-icing/Anti-icing Record shall be completed and placed in the Flight
Document envelope.

(8) PRE-TAKEOFF CHECK


At any time ground icing conditions exist, the airplane has been de-
iced/anti-iced, and a holdover time has been established, the PIC shall,
during taxi-out, accomplish a check to include the following:
 Ensure engine anti-ice is on and appropriate procedures complied with;
 Brief on the use of wing heat;
 Review holdover time to ensure a pre-takeoff check is accomplished
within the holdover time range;
 Establish the validity of the holdover time by ascertaining the current
weather conditions are consistent with those existing or forecast at the
start of the holdover time;

 Assess the runway surface condition and adjust for the appropriate
performance decrements;
 Check the airplane for contamination as described in “INSPECTION
CHECKS”.

(a) Cockpit Check


The cockpit check is performed by flight crewmember and is required
any time: Ground icing condition exists; the airplane has been
deiced/anti-iced; and, the holdover time is still valid.
The cockpit check consists of:
 Ensuring free travel of all flight controls, including trim and spoilers
throughout the full range.
 A check of representative aircraft surfaces which are visible from
the cockpit.
 If desired or if doubt exists, conduct Cabin Check.

(b) Cabin Check


The cabin check is performed by flight crewmember and is required any
time: During conditions of ice pellets, snow pellets, and snow grain; the
airplane has been deiced/anti-iced; the holdover time is exceeded

ground deicing/anti-icing procedure.

(c) Holdover Time


The determination of holdover time is the responsibility of PIC. The
previous section on fluid characteristics and capabilities discussed how
to determine holdover times and the use of the times. An initially
determined time should be increased or decreased if condition change.
For example: if conditions should deteriorate, the holdover time should
be decreased. Conversely, if conditions were to improve, the holdover
time could be increased, and if precipitation were to stop, the holdover
time could be suspended during that time.
If precipitation starts again, the holdover time clock would continue from
where it previously stopped. Again, the holdover timetable is purposed
for planning only, and should be used as guidance by the PIC.

AND PROCEDURES
OM – A 10.9 DE-ICING AND ANTI-ICING ON THE GROUND

(9) PRE-TAKEOFF CONTAMINATION CHECK


If the holdover time has been exceeded, no takeoff will be attempted until
a contamination check of the airplane has been accomplished. This
procedure may be done from inside the airplane and must assure that all
critical surfaces and controls are free from weather-associated
contamination. Flight crewmember must be able to assess the surface
conditions as described in “INSPECTION CHECK”
A Deicing Coordinator or designated qualified ground crewman may
perform an external check. If it cannot determined that the critical surfaces
of the airplane are free from contamination of frost, ice, or snow, or if takeoff
cannot be accomplished within 5 minutes of a satisfactory contamination
check, the deicing procedure must be re-accomplished or the airplane must
return to the ramp.

(10) THRESHOLD DE-ICING


A station may implement threshold deicing under severe icing conditions.
When required, threshold de-icing near the departure end of the runway
will be accomplished in addition to any previous deicing.
The PIC is responsible for familiarizing himself and crew with the
procedures for this operation:

(11) NO DE-ICE/ANTI-ICE EQUIPMENT AVAILABLE


When no de-icing or anti-icing can be performed at a facility, an inspection
must be performed from a suitable position outside the airplane to ensure
that the wings, control surfaces and other critical areas are free of ice,
frost or snow.
The PIC will coordinate with ATC, Gate Hold and Ground Control to
ensure that this check can be accomplished within the five minutes
prior to beginning takeoff.

10.9.3.6 SUMMARY
Be aware of the weather conditions that can produce winter hazards. Know how
contamination affects the airplane. Be familiar with the fluids and their limitations
that are applied to the airplane to remove and prevent contamination. Operate
within the established procedure to counter these adverse winter weather

11.1 GENERAL COCKPIT PROCEDURES


11.1.1 CREW RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
One of the basic fundamental of the Crew Resource Management is that each
crewmember must be able to supplement or act as a back-up for the other
crewmember. Proper adherence to Standard Operating Procedures and Standard Call
Outs are an essential element of well managed Flight Deck.
Situational awareness or the ability to accurately perceive what is going on in the flight
deck and outside the airplane, requires ongoing questioning, crosschecking,
communication and refinement of perception.
It is important that all flight deck crewmembers identify and communicate any situation
that appears unsafe or out of ordinary.
Accident investigations show that approximately 70% of air carrier incidents and
accidents have been caused by the failure of flight crewmember to make use of readily
available “resources”. In most cases the information was available to the Pilot in
Command but tragically, it was not utilized.
The investigation also reveals some situation in which the subordinate flight
crewmembers had detected serious problems in the performance of the captain such
as denying serious risk or displaying counterproductive and unreasonably perilous

behavior, prior to the incidents or accidents but they were not able to prevent it.

Rothe Captain decides to take over the Co-pilot on controls by saying “My control”
When
he is normally acknowledged by everyone. Unfortunately the situation is reversed
when the Co-Pilot has to take over control from a conscious but dysfunctional Captain.
To enable subordinate flight crewmembers to intervene effectively, a structured
intervention models using a precise language shall be used to successfully cope with
the extremely rare but potentially lethal performance break down of the Captain.
The following are the recommended procedural steps and progressions of inquiries
which considered being effective to be used by all subordinates:
Step 1. Probing for better understanding;
 I.e. statement;
“Captain, I need to understand why we are flying like this.”
Step 2. Alerting Captain of the anomalies;
 I.e. statement;
“Captain, it appears to me that we are on a course that is drastically
reducing our safety margins and is contrary to both your briefing and to
company’s SOP.”

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 1



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.1 GENERAL COCKPIT PROCEDURES

Step 3. Challenging suitability of present strategy;


 I.e. statement;
“Captain, you are placing the passengers and aircraft in irreversible and
immediate danger. You must immediately choose a course of action that
will reduce our unacceptability high risk levels.”
Step 4. Emergency warning of critical and immediate dangers.
 I.e. statement;
“Captain, if you don’t immediately increase our safety margins, it is my duty
and responsibility to immediately take over control of the airplane.”
These four steps define ordered progressions of inquiries designed to reduce risks at
each level of the intervention sequence.
The “P.A.C.E.” skills will enable subordinate flight crewmembers to effectively
intervene when a Captain is not performing up to reasonable performance standards.
The “P.A.C.E.” inquiry procedural steps will ensure that intervention by Co-Pilots will
always increase the margins of safety.
The “P.A.C.E.” progression tools are carefully designed to never make a bad situation
worse.

When unsafe situation suddenly appear in a critical situation where the safety limit will

 IDG/CSD disconnect switches.


 Any irreversible actuation (e.g. Gear Down on all hydraulic fail, where retraction is
not possible).
The above also applies when autopilot / auto-throttle is engaged. Constant monitoring
of autopilot / auto-throttle performance leads to early detection of possible deviations
in heading, attitude and/or altitude.

11.1.9 LOOK OUT


Although it is the responsibility of ATC to maintain separation between IFR traffic, it is
essential to maintain a good look out during IFR flights, especially during climb or
descent in areas of heavy traffic.
In visual meteorological conditions, it is the direct responsibility of the pilot on an IFR
flight to avoid other aircraft (that may be on VFR) even though this flight is in a control
area on an IFR ATC clearance.
Due to the above requirement and other obvious reasons, reading of literature other
than that essential for the safe and efficient execution of flight, is not permitted whilst
on duty at the flight deck.
During the hours of darkness the use of white light at the flight deck must be kept a
minimum in order not to impair night vision. A certain amount of white lighting should

As a consequence of recycling process, metal cutlery will sometimes be permanently
magnetized. This is an inevitable phenomenon. When exposed in the vicinity,
magnetic and non-magnetic metal objects may be detrimental to Stand-by Compass
accuracy.
In case the Stand-by Compass is to be used as a heading reference it is, as a
precautionary measure, strongly advised to remove cutlery and other suspect metal
objects from the cockpit.

11.1.16 RESTRICTION ON THE USE OF AIRBORNE RADAR


The primary purpose of the airborne radar is to assist crews in identifying and
avoiding thunderstorm.
Airborne radar is not to be used for terrain avoidance. However, it may be utilized in
the terrain mapping mode to establish the relative position of the aircraft with respect
to large bodies of water, high terrain, and other dominant ground features.
When use on the ground, the power beam of the weather radar is capable of inflicting
damage by electrical induction within a considerable radius.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 11



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.1 GENERAL COCKPIT PROCEDURES

Within a distance of approximately 300 meters it may light photographic flash bulbs
carried by passengers boarding an aircraft, or cause sparking between metallic
objects. The possible consequences of the latter on aircraft fueling need no
explanation.
The beam reflected to the radar unit itself, from a good reflecting surface within a
distance of approximately 500 meters, may seriously damage the equipment.
Therefore the following should be strictly adhered to:
 When on the platform, the weather radar may be switched to “STAND BY” only.
 During taxiing or the takeoff run the radar system may be switched to “ON” when:
 The antenna up-tilt is at least 2 degrees.
 A minimum separation of 200 meters from the other aircraft is maintained.

11.1.17 COCKPIT VOICE RECORDER (CVR) AND FLIGHT DATA RECORDER (FDR) CB
a. Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR)
No flight crewmember is allowed to intentionally switch off CVR, unless required
to preserve CVR data after an accident or serious incident.

Note:
The A 330 CVR cannot be switched off by the cockpit crew, since no CVR circuit
breaker is installed in the cockpit.
If a flight is terminated in an accident or serious incident and the electrical power
has been removed from the aircraft, it must be ensured that the CB of the CVR
is pulled and clipped by maintenance before electrical power is re-applied to the
aircraft in order to prevent inadvertent data erasure.
Ground maintenance will act as back up in the deactivation procedures, giving
thorough assessment on the aircraft condition prior to determining the next status
of release.

have been agreed upon. The detail procedures are outlined in OM-B2 Chapter 2.3.
The basic principles for these signals are standardized to cover the following
subjects:
 Fasten seat belt and/or no smoking.
 Cabin readiness prior to first aircraft movement, takeoff and landing;
 Notification from flight deck when the flight is in the descend phase;
 Emergency.

OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.2 COMMUNICATION

02. USE OF PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM


The PIC may use the PAS for announcement concerning operational matters, such
as:
 Reason for delay in case of delayed takeoff.
 Position, altitude and geographical particulars.
 Important deviation from the flight plan (diversion, return, route changes).
 Notification of technical (e.g. engine) malfunctions, if deemed necessary.

03. COMPOSITION OF CALL SIGNS


For normal schedule flights the radio-telephony (RTF) call sign shall consist of the
aircraft operation agency followed by the flight identification number,
e.g.: INDONESIA 892
In order to avoid the possibility of 2 aircraft flying in the same area at the same area
at the same time with identical RTF call signs, some additional rules are necessary.
 Extra flights
These are duplications of a schedule flights, operating the same route at
different times. In these cases ONE EXTRA DIGIT will be added to the flight
number to indicate an extra flight.
e.g.: INDONESIA 8921
C O PY 4 4 9

Unscheduled Flights
This category comprises instruction-, test-, ferry-, delivery- and positioning
flights and all other unscheduled flights. For these flights the aircraft registration
letters as RTF call sign.
e.g.: INDONESIA PK-GIA
Flights using registration letters in their call sign may abbreviate this call sign
in subsequent contact with the ground station, e.g.:
INDONESIA PK-GIA : for initial contact, and
INDONESIA IA : on subsequent contacts.
 ATC
It is not permitted to use a call sign different from the one filed on the ATC flight
plan.

11.2 COMMUNICATION

04. LISTENING WATCH AND SELCAL WATCH


 During flight the flight crewmember shall operate and maintain continuous
listening watch on radio frequency of the appropriate ATC unit, monitoring
guard frequency 121.50 MHz and the appropriate common frequency used for
in-flight communication in designated airspace without ATC coverage, e.g. In-
Flight Broadcast Procedures (Transmitting Blind). If required by applicable
authorities, in areas or over routes where the possibility of military intercept or
other hazardous situations exist.
The aircraft station shall not cease listening watch, except for safety reason,
without informing the controlling radio station.
 SEL-CAL or a similar automatic signaling device normally satisfies the
requirements to maintain listening watch. Where, on the basis or regional air
navigation agreements this is not the case, aircraft will also need to maintain
an aural guard.
 Within geographical Europe and in other areas so indicated in the
communication instructions, sel-cal watch shall be kept for reason of movement
control.

05. IN-FLIGHT REPORTING


The time and level of passing by a designated or otherwise specified reporting point

control station specifying the estimated time at which communication is expected
to be resumed. If this time cannot be realized, a new estimate, shall, if possible be
transmitted at or near the time first specified.
When re-establishment of radio contact is possible, the control station shall be so
informed. Under normal circumstances the aircraft station may use any relay
means available to transmit messages to an air/ground control radio station or any
other aeronautical station.

06. USE OF COMPANY CHANNEL


Three company communication systems are used: VHF, HF and, as applicable
ACARS airborne data-link.
These company channels are meant to be used for any operations purposes such
as safety aspects or prevent any/further delay by giving earlier information by using
voice Radio or ACARS whichever available.
At convenient time, Pilot should give Dep. Message (Airborne Time and ETA) via
company channels.
In a condition where ATD on time but ATA is late, the Pilot shall report via any
available mean to the Departure/Destination Ramp Dispatcher or flight following
and give the reason of delay, as well as write it down in the AFL (Aircraft Flight
Log).

a. VHF Communication

c. Air To Air Communications


 Interpilot Frequency
Flight over remote or oceanic areas out of range of VHF ground stations
may establish on ICAO air-to-air frequency VHF 123.45 MHz for the
exchange of necessary operational information and to facilitate the
resolution of operational problems.
 TIBA
Communication difficulties may substantially affect ATS. Sources of
difficulty could be inadequate inter center ground communications or areas
where ATS performance is considered not adequate. This may result in a
lack of flight plan and/or flight progress information to the ATS center
concerned.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 5



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.2 COMMUNICATION

Flight crewmembers may also experience dificulties in establishing contact


with ATS ground stations.
Incase of ATS deficiencies alternaternative provisions should be inforce.
The purpose of this provision is detection by the Pilot of the risk of a conflicting
traffic situation.
Currently alternative provision used is TIBA, the ICAO procedure for Traffic
Information Broadcasts by Aircraft, which is a mandatory procedure,
promulgated via NOTAM by State Authority.
TIBA procedures are intended to permit reports and relevant supplementary
information of Pilots of other aircraft in the vicinity. (eg. in Australia FIR/UIR
frequency to be used at or above FL 200, 128.95MHz; and below FL 200,
Class G airspace other than oceanic areas is FIA frequency otherwise
126.35MHz). Further detailed procedures see ROM or Jeppesen General
information.
 Inter Company Aircraft
To exchange of necessary operational information related to company
matters etc., use Garuda Company HF frequency as outlined in ROM.

07. DISTRESS COMMUNICATION
An aircraft is in distress condition, when it is threatened by serious and/or imminent
danger and requires immediate assistance. The RTF distress signal is the word
“MAYDAY”, spoken three times on the air/ground frequency in use.
Other ways of indicating a distress condition are:
 The activation of the appropriate SSR mode and code, i.e. mode A or B and
code 7700;
 Transmitting the distress message on the emergency frequency 121.50 MHZ.
Circumstances and time permitting the following information should be given in the
distress message:
 name of station addressed
 identification of the aircraft
 nature of distress condition
 intentions of person in command
 Present position, level and heading.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 6



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.2 COMMUNICATION

Distress communications have absolute priority over all other radio traffic; other
stations shall not transmit on the frequency concerned until the distress
communication is ended or transferred to another frequency, unless a station has
to render assistance.
As soon as the distress condition is ended, the aircraft or the controlling station
shall cancel the distress phase.

08. URGENCY COMMUNICATION


This type of communication concerns the safety of an aircraft or other vehicle, or
of a person on board or in sight, not requiring immediate assistance.
The RTF urgency signal is the word PAN-PAN, preferably spoken three times on
the air/ground frequency in use. The following information should be given in the
urgency message:
a. Name of station addressed;
b. Identification of the aircraft;
c. Nature of urgency condition;
d. Present position, level and heading; and
e. Any other useful information.

procedure as specified for the designated navigational aid; and land, if
possible within 30 minutes after the estimated time of arrival specified
or the last acknowledged expected approach time, whichever is later.
If the clearance for the levels covers only part of the route, the aircraft is
expected to maintain the last assigned and acknowledged cruising level(s)
to point(s) specified in the clearance level(s) in the current flight plan.
The provision of air traffic control service to other flights operating in the
airspace concerned will be based on the assumption that an aircraft
experiencing radio failure will comply with the above name rules.

b. Receiver Failure
When two-way communication is not possible due to receiver failure at the
aircraft station, reports shall be transmitted preceded by the phrase
“transmitting blind due to receiver failure”, at the scheduled positions or times,

b. Ground/Air Visual Signal Code


Ground/air signals have been internationally agreed upon and may serve as a
means of contact between the ground and rescue planes when no radio contact
is available (see OM-A Chapter 26.5.5).
As far as possible, the following instructions shall be adhered to:
 forms symbols by any available means :
Note: Some of the methods usually available are: using strips of fabric,
parachute material, pieces of wood, stones or such like material; marking
the surface by tramping or staining with oil, etc.
 make symbols not less than 2.5 meters (8 feet);
 take care to layout symbols as depicted to avoid confusion with other
symbols;
 provide as much color contrast as possible between material and the
background;
 Make every effort to attract attention by other means such as radio, flares,
smoke or reflected light.

11.3.1 PUSH BACK / PULL OUT PROCEDURE
a. General
During push back and / or pull out, pilot shall maintain contact with the Ground
Engineer, whilst the copilot does the communication with the ATC.
b. Push Back
At stations where nose-in parking is used, push back will be necessary.
While push back with running engine is allowed, normal start-up clearance must
be obtained first and engine has been started before pushing back executed.
Starting engine during push back is allowed, provided push back car and condition
permit so. Ground Engineer must be consulted.
When ATC requires an immediate stop during push back, pilot must inform ground
engineer at once, and not to touch the brakes until instructed by the ground
engineer.
c. Pull Out
Because of possible damage to building and or vehicles by application of break-
away power at gate, some airports require that aircraft are pulled out of the gate.

11.3.2 CREW
a. General
During preflight check/cockpit preparation, FMC data entries related to aircraft
performance such as forecast wind/ temperature shall be entered by flight
crewmember on each way point or as appropriate refer to FCOM/AOM in
accordance with data from current flight plan, as well as forecast cruise wind, climb
and descent as applicable, into CDU. It shall be updated during flight if there is
significant change in wind direction and/or speed.
During taxi and during the climb phase of a flight at altitudes below 10 000 feet
above terrain, all flight crewmembers shall concentrate on cockpit procedures,
cockpit monitoring and look out, and refrain from non-essential matters (see Sterile
cockpit on OM-A Chapter 11.1.11)
b. Before Takeoff
The PIC must give a concise briefing to the copilot covering the major actions to
be taken if a malfunction should occur during takeoff. The PIC may delegate this
briefing to the copilot, if the latter execute the takeoff. Delegating this authority will
in no way diminished the PIC’s responsibilities and duties (see OM-A Ch 11.1.2)

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.3 START UP AND TAKEOFF

c. During Takeoff
Conversations shall be limited to the required commands and calls as specified in
the FCOM/AOM. In case of malfunctioning which may affect the takeoff, the PIC
will decide upon the action to be taken and given the appropriate command when
required.
To ensure best verbal communication between flight crewmembers, those wearing
headphones will keep one ear free during takeoff.
d. Rejected Takeoff
Takeoff malfunction requires utmost cooperation of all flight crewmembers and
sounds and quick decision by the PIC. To be properly prepared for such situations,
the takeoff briefing is mandatory.
The decision to reject the takeoff determined by several factors:
 Kind of failure
 The actual speed at time of failure
 Runway length/surface condition
 Meteorological condition.
In order to be able to reach adequate, quick and correct decision, the PIC should
make a mental review of the takeoff parameters prior to starting the takeoff.

Directional control is achieved by immediately closing the thrust levers and
using maximum rudder and braking. If necessary, the nose wheel tiller/steering
should be used to avoid runway departure.
Low speeds is defined or specified on each associated aircraft type (ref related
FCOM/AOM). The airplane should be stopped if an event occurs that would be
considered undesirable for continued takeoff roll or flight.
Examples include Master Caution, unusual vibrations or tire failure.
Precautions:
 When closing thrust lever prior to auto throttle-hold feature, the auto throttle
will move again forward. Be ready to turn it off manually.
 When rejecting the takeoff prior to “RTO auto brake” activation speed, no
braking will be available. Be ready to take manual braking.
 Although reverse thrust sounds not effective at low speed and excluded in
the ASD demonstration, the use of reverse thrust can help minimizing gear
skid on wet/slippery runway compared with manual braking alone.

OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.3 START UP AND TAKEOFF

2) High Speed RTO:


As the air speed approaches V1 during a balanced field length takeoff, the effort
required to stop can approach the airplane maximum stopping capability.
Therefore, the decision to stop must be made before V1.
Historically, rejecting a takeoff near V1 has often resulted in the airplane
stopping beyond the end of the runway. Common causes include initiating the
RTO after V1 and failure to use maximum stopping capability (improper
procedures/techniques).
Precaution:
 All automatic features are functioning, however notwithstanding the use of
a time delay before taking the decision to reject and the fact that reverse
thrust is excluded for ASD demonstrations, it may be assumed that a
rejection of a take-off on a marginal runway, from high speed close to V1,
in particular when the runway is wet, can be extremely hazardous.
 Serious failure/malfunctions such as engine failure/fire, aircraft fire,
structural damage and flight control problem BEFORE V1: REJECT THE
TAKE OFF.
 Minor malfunctions may justify a continued takeoff especially in marginal
conditions and speed close to V1.

The decision to reject the takeoff lies with the PIC except when the first officer

such as flight control malfunction. The PIC, however, remains responsible to
the best of his ability.
Following a RTO or emergency stop, the PIC shall make appropriate
announcement to warn FA and / or Passengers regarding the need to remain
seated or evacuate as depicted in OM-B2.
Detailed specifications for flight crewmember functions, actions and task
sharing are described in the relevant FCOM/AOM.
e. Engine Failure Before V1
When an engine fails before V1, the basic V1- concept provides protection to safely
reject a takeoff within the required runway length, provided that:
 The first action is initiated with failure recognition and at the latest at V1.
 The runway is dry;
 Full braking is applied.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 3



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.3 START UP AND TAKEOFF

The use of reverse thrust additionally decelerates the aircraft, although this braking
means is not considered in the calculation of the stopping distance on a dry runway.
On a marginal wet runway and en engine fails near V1, the associated wet runway
performance corrections might not entirely compensate for the increased stopping
distance actually required. On the other hand, situations might arise where an
aircraft already above V1 would be exposed to greater risk during a continued take-
off than during a rejected take off, e.g. due to sudden deterioration on aircraft
performance.
f. Engine Failure After V1
 The flying pilot shall establish a safe climb-out, in order of following solutions:
 If published in RTOLW/Approach Chart, follow the engine failure climb out
procedure as it provides safe terrain clearance for the most critical case of
an engine failure immediately after V1 at maximum permissible Takeoff
weight. or,
 Follow normal SID or part of it as contained in the ATC clearance if terrain
clearance is not in doubt. or,
 Follow any route over known obstacle-free areas at PIC discretion.
 When engine re-light and continuing the flight is unsafe/operationally not
possible, make a landing at a suitable or even emergency aerodrome.

It is Garuda Indonesia’s general policy, that all flights be executed along airways, air
routes, RNAV routes and advisory routes.
When this is not possible or when it entails excessive operational penalties, all factors
such as communications, air traffic services, navigation facilities, weather etc., must
be carefully considered before selecting a different routing (see Rules of the Air, OM-
A Chapter 24)
a. Navigation Aids Tuning and Identification
Prior to using the navigation aids on any stage of the flight, selection of the correct
beacon shall be identified visually and aurally.
b. Navigation Performance Monitoring
Flight crewmember shall at all-time ensure the correctness of the aircraft position
in accordance with published, and readily available at all time, navigation
charts/approach charts and the flight management system by:
 Correct present position during initial navigation alignment;
 Continuous monitoring of the airplane navigation performance;

 destination alternate (if applicable);
 En-route alternate /ETOPS (if applicable).
f. Altitude / Flight Level Rules
Flying above FL250 within controlled airspace shall be executed at flight levels
prescribed by the aero-nautical altitude rules, and as shown in the Garuda
Indonesia documentation (See ACL A9 and ROM Chapter 3.6.1).

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.4 CLIMB, CRUISE AND DESCENT

Flights outside controlled airspace above FL250 shall be executed using the semi-
circular cruising level system.
g. Excessive Rate of Descend at Lower Altitude
 General
An aircraft descending and passing through 10,000 feet/FL100 is considered
to be in the lower altitude/height phase of flight, most particularly, when
approaching the Minimum Sector Altitude (MSA) and when the radio altimeter
becomes active at 2,500 feet height above terrain.
This is the phase of flight where situational/terrain awareness and crewmember
coordination plays a major role in the prevention of Controlled Flight into Terrain
(CFIT).
 Policy
Large altitude changes during descent sometimes result in excessive rates of
descent that can be a factor in CFIT. The rate of descent at lower
altitudes/heights should be restricted as follows:
 When passing through 10,000 feet/FL100 down to an altitude where the
flaps/slats are extended to the maneuvering configuration, the rate of
descent should not exceed 2,500 feet/min.
 With flaps/slats extended to the maneuvering configuration, rate of descent
should not exceed 1,500 feet/min.

11.4.2 AUTOPILOT AND AUTOTHROTTLE OPERATION


a. General
 To minimize cockpit workload and thus to increase the safety level, optimum
use of the autopilot and its sub-modes and auto throttle as far as per
FCOM/AOM permitted, is strongly recommended during the whole flight
regime.
 The autopilot should be regarded as the primary means of aircraft control
during turbulence penetration.
 The following general regulations apply when the autopilot is engaged:
 Below 2.500 feet above terrain, the pilot flying must have his thumb on
the disconnect button in order to be able to disconnect immediately in
case needed.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 2



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.4 CLIMB, CRUISE AND DESCENT


Be alert to detect a possible malfunction of the autopilot. At least one
cockpit crewmember must be in a position to take over manually at any
time and without delay.
 During changeover of pilots, a cockpit crewmember must be seated in the
pilot’s seatbelt fastened.
 The aircraft should be properly trimmed during autopilot operation. For
that purpose the trim indicators should be checked regularly.
b. Minimum Altitude
Unless specified in the approved FCOM/AOM;
 The minimum engagement of Autopilot (except in CWS Mode) is 500 feet
HAA whichever higher, during climb and cruise.
 The Autopilot might be engaged (except in CWS Mode) up to 50 feet HAT or
published MDA/DA/DH whichever higher for approach.
 And aircraft capability status, the Autopilot might not be engaged for
automatic landing.
 The Auto throttle might be engaged for takeoff, climb, cruise, descent,
approach and landing.

that proceeding to that airport is as safe as landing at the nearest suitable airport:
1. The nature of the malfunction and the possible mechanical difficulties that may
occur if flight is continued.
2. The altitude, weight, and usable fuel at the time of engine stoppage.
3. The weather conditions en-route and at possible landing points.
4. The air traffic congestion.
5. The kind of terrain.
6. His familiarity with the airport to be used.
However a suitable alternate airport located within 90 minutes flying time in still air at
normal cruising speed with N-1 should be available.
Although highly improbable, a second in-flight engine shutdown may have
consequences for obstacle clearance. If further deterioration of the aircraft’s technical
status becomes apparent, land at the nearest suitable airport.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

Other factors that may be considered for selection of a suitable airport:


When time and aircraft conditions permitting, other factors may be taken into account,
e.g.:
 Availability of spares engine or repair facilities.
 Passenger accommodation and through connection possibilities.
 Possibility of an N-1 ferry flight.

 Reporting
The Pilot in Command shall report each stoppage of engine rotation / engine failure in
flight to the appropriate ground radio station as soon as practicable and shall keep that
station fully informed of the progress of the flight.
If the pilot in command lands at an airport other than the nearest suitable airport, in
point of time, he shall (upon completing the trip) send a written report by means of Trip
Report and Air Safety Report (ASR), in duplicate, to JKTOFGA and JKTDVGA stating
his/her reasons for determining that his selection of an airport, other than the nearest
airport, was as safe a course of action as landing at the nearest suitable airport.

11.5.1 FLIGHT CREWMEMBER COORDINATION
a. General
Thorough planning and good coordination is the key to a safe, efficient, unhurried
and professional approach.
The following chapter provides recommended general guideline for crew
coordination in executing instrument approaches (such as Precision Approach,
non-Precision Approach and circling approach) and Visual Approach, Go Around
and Missed Approach maneuver.
Detailed flight crewmember coordination and task sharing is outlined in the relevant
FCOM/AOM.
b. Flight Crewmember Coordination during Holding, Approach and Landing
During these phases of flight, both pilots must be seated at their assigned qualified
cockpit seats.
During the descent phase of the flight, at altitudes below approximately 10.000 feet
above terrain, and during taxi (as appropriate), all flight crewmembers shall
concentrate on cockpit procedures, and adhere to monitoring or lookout

The crewmember briefing (refer to OM-A Chapter 11.1.1 and FCOM/AOM section
Flight Techniques) should be completed well in advance of terminal area
penetration, preferably before starting descent, or at the latest, before handling the
– Before Landing Initial / approach - checklist, and shall be updated if changing
circumstances require so.
Both Pilots should review the approach procedure. All pertinent approach
information including minima and missed approach procedures should be reviewed
and alternate courses of action considered.
As a guide the approach briefing should include at least:
 Weather and NOTAM at destination/alternate as applicable;
 type of approach and the validity of the charts to be used;
 navigations and communications frequencies to be used;
 minimum safe/sector altitudes for that airport;
 approach procedure including courses and heading;

 management of AFDS.
If weather conditions or any circumstances are such that diversion becomes a real
or high possibility, the time of diversion as well as the selection of, and routing to,
the alternate shall be discussed.
Normally the Pilot Flying, programs and monitors the autopilot/flight director and
auto throttle, and gives necessary commands (e.g. checklist, gear down, flaps
etc.).
For operations into lower weather minima the crew coordination and procedures
are based upon the principles of the monitored approach. This means that
particular attention is paid to the distribution of cockpit duties/ task sharing.
FCOM/AOM procedures ensure that one pilot continues to monitor his/her
instruments down to and below decision height.

11.5.2 INITIAL APPROACH


a. General
- Initial Approach: That part of an instrument approach procedure consisting of the
approach to the first navigational facility or to a predetermined fix associated with
the approach procedure.
- Initial Approach Area : An area of defined width (normally 10 NM) lying between
the last preceding navigational fix or dead reckoning position and either the facility
to be used for making an instrument approach or a point associated with such a
facility that is used for demarcating the terminating of the initial approach.
- When making an initial approach to a radio navigation facility under IFR, no person
may descend below the pertinent minimum altitude for initial approach (as specified
in the instrument approach procedure for that facility) until his arrival over that
facility has been definitely established.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

b. Initial Approach Obstacles Clearance


The initial approach shall not be made below a height of 1000 feet, above the
highest obstacle within the initial approach area. However, this altitude should not
be lower than the altitude at which the facility will be crossed on final approach and,
if a procedure turn is required, not lower than the procedure turn altitude.
c. Initial Approach Altitudes in IMC And Without Radar Vectors
Where no initial approach altitudes have been specified, the minimum sector
altitude(s) as shown on the approach charts are applicable. When cleared for
approach, follow the descend procedures as depicted on the approach chart.
Inform the controller when leaving and reaching the prescribed levels/altitudes.
d. Initial Approach Altitudes in IMC And With Radar Vectors
When positively identified by ATC radar within TMA (terminal control area), PIC
may accept clearances to altitudes below the applicable sector altitude or Minimum
Vectoring Altitude, provided the radar monitoring and communication watch are
continue. In the same circumstances takeoff clearances based on radar controlled
climb out may be accepted at PIC’s discretion.
In accepting these clearances, the PIC will exercises a full measure of discretion,
utilizing his knowledge of the terrain over which the clearance takes him, possible
consequences of radio or radar failure, his ability to maintain a clear picture of the

11.5.3 AUTOMATIC lAPPROACH
2 0
a. R oseRegulations
General
When conducting an automatic approach/landing, both pilots shall monitor
instruments and annunciators and be alert to take over immediately when
circumstances so dictate.
At or below 2500 feet AGL or when Radio Altimeter activated the pilot-flying must
have his one hand on the control column and the other hand on the throttle in order
to be able to take over the Auto Flight System timely.
All control actions must be followed with hands and feet on the controls by the pilot-
flying so that an autopilot disconnects will result in immediate resumption of manual
control.
b. Use Of Autopilot and Auto throttle
Conditions permitting, an auto-land is strongly recommended when weather
conditions are 500ft/2500 m or below.
See OM-A Chapter 11.1.7 Auto and Manual Flight.
Compare with the manual approach/landing technique, use of the autopilot / auto
throttle has the following advantages:
 Speeds and ILS beams can be flown with a higher accuracy.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 3



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

 Lower cockpit workload, permitting better monitoring.


 In marginal weather conditions a better decision making process is obtained.
Maximum use of autopilot and auto throttle is required for ILS approaches, provided
that:
 The performance of the relevant airborne and ground systems is satisfactory.
 The localizer can be intercepted at an adequate distance from the runway.
 No restrictions to autopilot use are indicated on the approach chart (see 03
below).
It should be realized that in weather conditions of CAT I or better a number of
factors may have some influence such as:
 Protection area not assured to be clear.
 Close sequencing of aircraft.
 Switch over time of ground aids.
 Quality of ILS signals.
These factors may influence performance of aircraft auto-land systems in a
negative way. Therefore it is essential that the Pilot flying is prepared to take
immediate action in case of a significant deviation from the desired flight path. If
necessary, make a (Auto) go-around.
c. Auto-land / Auto-Approach Restrictions
C O PY 4 4 9

The indications to be used in the notes on the approach charts and their meaning
are as follows:
 No auto-approach
According to the local authorities the glide path below a certain height is not
suitable for autopilot coupled approaches and landing.
 No auto-land
Auto-land are not allowed in some aerodromes.
Possible reasons for this restriction could be:
 Low quality of ILS beam in last part of the approach.
 Irregularity sloping terrain approach area, making radio altimeter readings
unreliable.
 Off-set localizer.
 Local regulations.
No Auto-land B747
Auto-land not permitted for B747 aircraft due to an unfavorable combination of
glide path angle and up-slope condition of the touch down zone.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 4



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

No Auto-land (TCH)
 Auto-land is not permitted since an on-glide path threshold crossing height
would be below 43 feet.
 Minimum visibility for B747: 1200 meters
These minima are applicable in both auto and manual approaches.
Required action to ensure adequate wheel clearance at threshold is given in
the appropriate Flight Techniques (FCOM/AOM).

11.5.4 FINAL APPROACH AND LANDING


01. POTENTIAL HAZARD
Common sources of potential hazard on final approach and landing are heavy
precipitation.
Poor visibility, reduced windshield transparency and refraction error may give
wrong horizon reference (false horizon lies below actual).
This way, objects appear to be lower than they actually are, causing pilots deceived
to descend below glide path. Such dilution can create up to 5 degrees in error,
which means that at a distance of 1/2 NM the aircraft is off glide 200 feet.

C O PY 4 4 9
The danger is greatest when making visual contact after breaking out below clouds.

Reported weather at the airport must have a ceiling at or above 1000 feet and
visibility 5 km or greater.
ATC may authorize this type of approach when it will be operationally beneficial.
Visual approaches are an IFR procedure conducted under IFR in VMC.
Visual approach is normally conducted on one of the following: Traffic pattern
(circuit pattern), down wind, base leg, straight in, circling approach.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 5



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

a. Operating to an Airport without Weather Reporting Service


ATC will advise the pilot when weather not available at the destination airport.
ATC may initiate a visual approach provided there is a reasonable assurance
that weather at the airport is a ceiling at or above 1000 feet and visibility 5 km
or greater (e.g. area weather reports, PIREPs, etc.)
b. Operating to an Airport with an Operating Control Tower
Aircraft may be authorized to conduct a visual approach to one runway while
other aircraft are conducting IFR or VFR approaches to another parallel,
intersecting, or converging runway.
When operating to airport with parallel runways separated by less than 2500
feet, the succeeding aircraft must report sighting the preceding aircraft unless
standard separation is being provided by ATC.
When operating to parallel runways separated by at least 2500 feet but less
than 4300 feet, controllers will clear/vector aircraft to the final at an angle not
greater than 30 degrees unless radar, vertical, or visual separation is provided
during the turn-on.
The purpose of the 30 degree intercept angle is to reduce the potential for

If the pilot has the airport in sight but cannot see the aircraft to be followed,
ATC may clear the aircraft for a visual approach; however, ATC retains both
separation and wake vortex separation responsibility.
When visually following a preceding aircraft, acceptance of the visual approach
clearance constitutes acceptance of pilot responsibility for maintaining a safe
approach interval and adequate wake turbulence separation.
d. Missed Approach
A visual approach is not an IAP and therefore has no missed approach
segment.
If a go-around is necessary for any reason, the aircraft should initially fly in the
direction of the active runway, climb to an altitude that will allow it to remain
clear of cloud, immediately inform ATC of the missed approach and request
instruction and further clearance.
An aircraft operating at controlled airports will be issued an appropriate
advisory/clearance/instruction by the tower.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 6



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

At uncontrolled airports, aircraft are expected to remain clear of clouds and


complete a landing as soon as possible.
If a landing cannot be accomplished, the aircraft is expected to remain clear of
clouds and contact ATC as soon as possible for further clearance.
Separation from IFR aircraft will be maintained under these circumstances.
e. Pilot Responsibilities
 Visual approaches reduce pilot/controller workload and expedite traffic by
shortening flight paths to the airport. It is the pilot’s responsibility to advise
ATC as soon as possible if a visual approach is not desired.
 Authorization to conduct a visual approach is an IFR authorization and does
not alter IFR flight plan cancellation responsibility (The PIC shall not cancel
IFR flight plan when making visual approach, in order to keep the provision
of separations between the aircraft and other arriving / departing traffic).
Radar service is automatically terminated, without advising the pilot, when the
aircraft is instructed to change to advisory frequency.

landmark or a preceding aircraft. If instructed to follow a preceding aircraft,
pilots are responsible for maintaining a safe approach interval and wake
turbulence separation.
Pilots should advise ATC if at any point they are unable to continue an approach
or lose sight of a preceding aircraft. Missed approaches will be handled as a go-
around.

04. CIRCLING APPROACH


Circling approach is a combined instrument/visual approach, consists of an
instrument letdown using a ground based approach aid, followed by a visual circuit
or part of circuit, with the intention to line up the aircraft with the extended centerline
of the landing runway.
Before commencing the letdown for a circling approach, both pilots must study the
approach chart and familiarize terrain features, elevations, spot heights,
obstructions and circuit pattern.
In some cases the approach aid to be used and/or the circuit to be flown is specified
because the obstacle clearance is based on it.
The letdown for a circling approach must not be continued below the minimum
descent altitude (MDA) for that particular approach aid specified for the circling
procedure.
Upon reaching the Missed Approach Point (MAP), adequate outside visual
reference must be obtained. If not, or if the PIC is not convinced that uninterrupted
adequate outside reference can be maintained, a Go-around must be executed.
The circuit part of the circling may be executed at or above the minimum descent
altitude, provided:
 The aircraft is clear of clouds;
 Full visual reference can be maintained;

Other optical illusions may also contribute to misjudgment of aircraft vertical
position e.g. sloping runway, non-standard runway width, displaced threshold,
sloping terrain and non-standard aircraft attitude.

Missed Approach
If visual reference is lost while circling-to-land from an instrument approach, the
missed approach specified for that particular procedure must be followed (unless
an alternate missed approach procedure is specified by ATC).
To become established on the prescribed missed approach course, the pilot should
make an initial climbing turn toward the landing runway and continue the turn until
established on the missed approach course.
The circling maneuver may be accomplished in more than one direction, different
patterns will be required to become established on the prescribed missed approach
course, depending on the aircraft position at the time visual reference is lost.

It should be remembered that, when the approach is executed in crosswind
conditions, the crab angle may give the false impression that the aircraft is not on
the centerline and that a lateral correction is needed.
Even in the absence of crosswind, there exists a tendency to apply corrective bank
after becoming visual. This is very often due to wrong interpretation of the few
available visual cues and will result in zigzagging and overcorrecting of bank; this
is a highly undesirable situation in conditions of marginal visibility and low altitude.
During the approach, the heights over the markers and beacons shall always be
checked by both pilots and in cases where discrepancies are detected, terrain
clearance shall be verified immediately.
In a “see to land” concept, it is understandable that a pilot wishes to make the
transition from instrument guidance to ground visual as early as possible.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 9



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

Although the approach lights may often be in sight before DH is reached, the
visibility may decrease or fluctuate during the remainder of the approach.
Misjudgment of visual cues or deviations from the intended flight path through
outside causes (cg, wind shear) can best be detected by reference to the flight
instruments.
It is therefore strongly recommended that the pilot-flying cross-checks/monitors the
instruments, also at break of altitude BOA/DH until a safe landing is assured. As
already mentioned in the beginning of this paragraph, the pilot monitoring will have
his attention focused mainly on the outside world.

06. 500 FEET CALL


A 500 feet call must be included in the final part of each approach, to protect
against subtle incapacitation and to serve as an awareness call for the approach
stability and the landing clearance.
If there is no automatic 500 feet call, the Pilot Monitoring must give this call.
The PF must respond ‘cleared/not cleared’, followed by a ‘checked’ call from the
Pilot Monitoring, which means that he/she agrees with the response from the PF.

07. APPROACH STABILITY


All flight must be stabilized by 1000 feet above airport elevation in IMC and by 500
feet above airport elevation in VMC.
An approach is stabilized when all of the following criteria are met:
a. The aircraft is in the correct flight path.
b. Only small changes in heading / pitch are required to maintain the correct path.
c. The aircraft speed is not more than Vref + 20 indicated airspeed and not less
than Vref.
d. The aircraft is in the correct landing configuration.
e. Sink rate not more than 1000 fpm; if an approach require sink rate greater than
1000 fpm, special briefing shall be conducted.
f. Thrust setting is appropriate for the aircraft configuration and is not below the
minimum thrust for approach as defined by the aircraft operating manual.
g. All briefing and checklist have been conducted.
h. Specific type of approach:
 ILS : within one dot of the glide slope and localizer.
 CAT II or III ILS : within the expanded localizer.

of 50 feet. In the published actual landing distances, average
wheel height over the threshold for a particular aircraft type has been accounted
for.
 Precision Approaches
On an ILS approach, the wheel clearance over the threshold depends on the
height of the glide path signal over the threshold (threshold crossing height,
TCH), the location of the aircraft glide path antenna relative to the landing gear
and the aircraft pitch attitude. Taking this into account and considering certain
allowances for ground and airborne equipment and meteorological conditions,
a minimum threshold crossing height has been established:
 43 feet for B 747
 40 feet for A330
 35 feet for B 737
 35 feet for CRJ1000
Following a normal glide path (TCH 50 feet), a wheel clearance of 20-40 feet
(depending on the aircraft type concerned) over the threshold may normally be
expected.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 11



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

This means that an ILS with a threshold crossing height of less than 47 feet
may create problem with respect to wheel clearance.
ILS with threshold crossing problems are indicated on the approach charts with
a note below the minima box.
In case a displaced threshold provides sufficient obstacle free pavement in the
under run area a ‘no restriction ‘note is published in the ILS box of the approach
chart.
For further information regarding such notes, see OM-A Chapter 11.5.3-c.
 Non-Precision Approaches
CANPA (Constant Angle Non Precision Approach)
A Non Precision Approach is an instrument approach that does not incorporate
vertical guidance (i.e., no glide slope).
Over the past several decades statistically indicates that there have been a
number of CFIT (Controlled Flight into Terrain) and Unstabilized Approach
incidents and accidents associated with step down Non Precision Approaches
and landings. Traditionally step down method involve changing the flight path

If using an MDA(H) / DA(H) for Non Precision Approach, initiating a missed
approach approximately 50 feet above the MDA(H) / DA(H) may be necessary
to avoid descending below the MDA(H) / DA(H) during missed approach.
The additional of 50 feet above the MDA(H) / DA(H) for Non Precision
Approach for anticipating go around does not require additional prescribed
minimum visibility.
On a non-precision approach, a normal glide-path and aiming point should be
established. Wheel clearance will then be approximately as described above.
When landing on a marginal runway, do not cross the threshold lower than
normal, as this will increase undershoot risk unacceptably.
ILS with threshold crossing problems are indicated on the approach charts with
a note below the minima box. The notes used and their meanings are:
 No auto-land (TCH)
Threshold crossing height is below 43 feet. Auto-land not allowed B747.
These aircraft leave the glide-path not lower than 100 feet to cross the
threshold with sufficient wheel clearance.

 TCH < 35 feet


Threshold crossing height is 35 feet or less. Auto-land not allowed for B747.
All aircraft leave the glide-path not lower than 100 feet to cross the threshold
with sufficient wheel clearance.

09. LANDING ON TOUCH DOWN ZONE


Flight crewmember shall cross the landing threshold at ± 50 feet, and land the
airplane within the touch down zone of the intended landing runway. See OM-A

10. LANDING DISTANCE


Definition
The landing distance is the horizontal distance between that point on the landing
surface at which the airplane is brought to a complete stop and that point on the
landing surface which the airplane cleared by 15.2 m (50 feet).

thrust reversers.
The actual/unfactored landing distance information in the FCOM/AOM is provided
to guide the Pilot in his/her assessment of the possibly critical nature of a particular
landing. It should be realized that the figures in the FCOM/AOM are based on
stated reference conditions.
These reference conditions cannot be exactly duplicated, therefore additional
margin shall be added (see OM-A Chapter 11.5.4-11)

11. LANDING PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENTS AT TIME OF ARRIVAL


The following policy applies:
The Flight crewmembers shall assess landing performance based on conditions
actually existing at time of arrival at the destination or alternate airport, as distinct
from conditions presumed at time of dispatch.
Those conditions include weather, runway conditions of intended use, the
airplane’s weight, the aircraft configuration and with the means of deceleration that
will be used for the landing.

11.5.5 FUEL DUMPING AND OVERWEIGHT LANDING


01. GENERAL
The PIC is legally allowed to make an overweight landing at destination, when the
take-off weight of the aircraft was so calculated that the estimated landing weight
at destination would not exceed the allowable maximum landing weight as
specified in the FCOM/AOM.
When landing at an airport not being the flight plan destination, the actual landing
weight could be considerably higher than the maximum landing weight. In this case
fuel dumping must be considered. In view of the many factors that have to be taken
into account, a uniform recommendation cannot easily be given.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 14



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

Although overweight landings do not necessarily have to cause structural damage


if a minimum rate of descent is achieved on landing, it is recommended to dump
fuel when the normal dumping procedure can be followed correctly and all
circumstances are favorable.

02. FACTORS WHICH INFLUENCE FUEL DUMPING


Test to determine safe methods of fuel dumping revealed the following facts.
 When dumping fuel from an aircraft in flight, the combustible gas envelope
surrounding the liquid fuel spray, presents practically no hazard to external or
internal components of the aircraft.
 Static discharges may however ignite sprayed fuel in an air stream.
 Even if ignition might occur, no hazard will have to exist as long as the fuel
does not contact any part of the aircraft after leaving the dump-chute.
 When an external surface is contacted by ignited fuel, burning of the surface
might continue after the source of ignition has disappeared.
 Hazard is increased by the presence of protuberances and irregularities on the
surface of the aircraft, by deflections of flaps, control surfaces and gear or an
increase of the angle of attack.
The fuel dumping procedure as specified in the FCOM/AOM for the relevant aircraft
type shall be strictly adhered to.

Do not use HF transmitters. Other radio equipment, e.g. VHF, weather radar, DME
etc. is not restricted.
The reason for fuel dumping shall be given in a trip report.

03. FACTORS WHICH INFLUENCE OVERWEIGHT LANDINGS


In view of the increased aircraft weight, special attention shall be paid to the
following items and conditions, when considering an overweight landing.
 Pilot’s physical condition : own limitations and fatigue.
 Weather : IMC or VMC, temperature, cross wind, turbulence
etc.
 Runway : elevation, length, slope, obstructions (at both
ends). Width and surface conditions.
 Aircraft : number of engines operating, serviceability of
system, flaps, etc.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 15



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

Any landing with a weight in excess of 2% above the maximum allowed landing
weight shall be reported in both the Aircraft Maintenance Log and a trip report.

04. OVERWEIGHT LANDING INSPECTION


When the weight of the aircraft at an overweight landing does not exceed 105% of
the maximum allowed landing weight no special inspection is required.
At higher weights, or when a hard landing is made at any weight, the “hard landing
inspection” for the aircraft type concerned shall be carried out.

11.5.6 LANDING WITH DEFECTIVE GEAR


01. LOW PASS FOR VISUAL CHECK
In case of (suspected) troubles with tires or undercarriage it may be necessary to
make a low pass for a visual check from the ground.
It should be arranged with ATC and the ground services concerned that such a low
pass be made over a runway.
This has the advantage that the normal traffic pattern is not disturbed and that full
use can be made of the available approach system(s).

se l y STRIP
2 0
R oPolicy
In view of the limited effect of a foam strip, no firm requirements for its use are
prescribed.
The request for a foam strip is SCD and may be considered in case of a belly
landing or a landing with retracted main gear.
Objections resulting from operational considerations as stated below may be
reason to omit such request.
 Operational Considerations
Some considerations influencing the possible request for a foam strip are:
 The airport in question should preferably have more than one useable
runway, not intersecting.
 Adequate equipment for foaming must be available.
 Laying a foam strip takes considerable time (one hour or more).
 After production of the foam strip, the applicable equipment must be refilled
with foam before the landing may be executed.
 Strong wind will disperse the foam.
 In temperatures considerably below zero, the water in the foam will freeze.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 16



OM – A 11. FLIGHT PROCEDURES
11.5 APPROACH AND LANDING

 Moderate to heavy rain has the same effect as a foam strip, making a foam
strip superfluous.
 Effect of Foam
Foam is a means of accumulating a large amount of water. It partly suppresses
sparks resulting from metal friction, but has no extinguishing effect.
The lubricating effect of foam is comparable with the properties of a wet
runway.
Leaking fuel will spread under the foam carpet, diminishing, but not excluding
the risk of a fire in the direct environment of the fuselage.

11.5.7 USE OF REVERSE THRUST AND/OR BRAKES


01. GENERAL
The takeoff and landing runway length requirements have been determined, during
certification of the aircraft by the use of wheel brakes only, with engines delivering
forward idle thrust.
The use of reverse thrust, as laid down in the FCOM/AOM increases the
operational safety margins and considerably increases the brakes and tire life, with
no adverse effects to the engines.

02. REVERSE ON SLIPPERY AND SNOW-COVERED RUNWAYS
Should directional problems occur on a slippery runway, differential application of
reverse thrust must not be used in an attempt to regain directional control. Reverse
thrust must be reduced to idle reverse, until the aircraft is under control.
Reverse thrust when continued below 60 knots on powdery snow can result in the
loss of forward visibility.

11.5.8 PARKING OF AIRCRAFT


When parking an aircraft, the PIC remains responsible for the safe maneuvering, even
when guided by marshaling signals. The purpose of marshaling signals is to aid the
pilot when taxiing or parking, without affecting the pilot’s responsibility.
For use of wheel blocks and parking brake under normal and adverse weather
conditions see the relevant FCOM/AOM.

11.5.9 POST-FLIGHT DELIVERY OF METEOROLOGICAL INFORMATION


When meteorological information are required to be made during flight these should
be delivered to the meteorological office at the station of next landing, either by the

It should be realized that in certain parts of the word, where the official meteorological
observations network is rather scarce, the local MET office partly depends on the upper
air information supplied by the aircrew.

11.6 CRITICAL FLIGHT CONDITIONS


A. WIND SHEAR
With reference to the basic information on this subject in FRG 5.1.2 and the aspects
covered in the relevant AOM, following rules and recommendations should be
adhered to:
− Take-off
If a wind shear in the take-off flight path is expected or known to exist,
consideration should be given to the following:
 Delay the take-off
 Choose a more favorable runway and/or climb out direction
 Use of full rated take-off thrust
 Delay of heading changes and/or restrictions of bank angle to 15° in the
shear area.
A take-off should not be made in the direction of a reported shear if the take-
off is performance limited.
A take-off should not be made, or should at least be delayed when severe
thunderstorm are present in close vicinity of the airport, for reason of uncertain
wind/gust pattern normally associated with these phenomena.

− Recovery
If wind shear has been encountered, ground contact is prime task to be
avoided. Apply maximum thrust as for go around, follow flight technique
procedure in AOM/FCOM for particular type of aircraft.
− Reporting
If wind shear has been encountered, this should be reported immediately to
ATC. Report should include altitude and amount of shear.
B. ENHANCED GROUND PROXIMITY WARNING
The Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) consists of 7 (seven)
mode that gives different alert/warning and provides forward looking terrain
avoidance function. Flight crew shall be knowledgeable of the operation of such
system

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

C. TRAFFIC ALERT AND COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (TCAS)


TCAS provides back up to the air traffic services by alerting the flight crew to aircraft
which represent or ma represent a collision hazard, and proven to be a very useful
instrument for collision avoidance, even in low traffic environments. Pilots shall –
in the interest of safety avail themselves of the use of the system at all times.
Two modes corresponding to alert levels are provided by TCAS: The ″ traffic
advisory ″ (TA) and the ″ resolution advisory ″ (RA). Stall, GPWS and wind shear
warnings have precedence over TCAS advisories.
Infringement of an ATC clearance based on information / advisory conveyed by
TCAS lies within the authority of the Pilot-In-Command.
− Operational procedures
Notwithstanding the above, neither information derived from the traffic display
nor the issuance of a TA are meant for the crew as means to interfere with the
ATC task to provide continuous positive separation.
In principle, avoidance maneuver should be restricted to responding to an RA
or to the visual acquisition of conflicting traffic. Vertical excursions from level
flight should be kept at a minimum, in order to preclude a secondary collision
hazard.

and the pilot shall make a report using ASR form.

R− oTraffic Advisories (TA)
Pilots shall immediately attempt to establish visual contact with all airplanes in
the vicinity in order to try to identify the intruder traffic.
If visual contact is established, safe separation shall be maintained.
If visual contact is not established, no avoiding action shall be taken unless the
TA subsequently changes to RA.
− Resolution Advisories (RA)
Pilot at the control shall immediately dis-engage the auto-pilot and manually
apply positive and smooth control inputs in the direction and with the magnitude
required by the RA (note that RAs do not require abrupt pitch control changes).
In VMC scan airspace into which your aircraft is diverting.
Never maneuver aircraft opposite to RA. While active, a RA has priority over a
conflicting ATC instruction or clearance.
− ATC Phraseology
The following R/T phraseology shall be used to inform ATC of deviations from
clearance when responding to TCAS RA.

still be issued and that response should still be initiated.
If the pilot is unable to attain 1500 fpm, he should establish a climb with the
highest vertical speed practical under the given conditions. TCAS will continue
to monitor the vertical separation that exists and will detect that the response
is less than 1500 fpm.
As a result of that situation TCAS has three options:
1. To leave the RA displayed for a longer period of time, to ensure that the
desired separation is obtained.
2. To issue a reversal RA.
3. To issue an increase RA, that obviously cannot be followed.

12.4.1 GENERAL .
The navigational procedures mainly depend on ATC requirements and the availability
of ground based radio aids. Consequently the OM-C is the main source for detailed
instructions on this subject. These instructions may also contain rules concerning the
airborne navigation equipment, which are based on the following considerations.
12.4.2 LONG RANGE NAVIGATIONAL AIDS (USE OF LONG-RANGE NAVIGATION

A. PURPOSE
Presents operational practices and procedures for the use of “electronic long-range

4) Cross Check
This is a term of methods used to carefully monitor and verify navigation
information so as to ensure compliance with a currently effective Air Traffic
Control (ATC) clearance. The keystone of successful navigation is effective
cross checking procedures. In order to minimize the exposure to human error,
each manual insertion of input data into the navigation system should be
carried out in its entirety by one crewmember and then recalled and verified by
another. Cross checking procedures should include:
a) Verification that all data inserted into the system is correct;
b) Verification that the systems are operating properly;
c) Confirmation that system controls and switches are properly configured to
provide the desired information; and
d) Frequent confirmation of navigation performance to ensure that the ATC
assigned track is maintained and that the information presented by the
systems remains reasonable.

5) Waypoint
A geographic point specified for navigation, flight planning or air traffic control
purposes. For automated navigation system (i.e. INS, IRS, FMC/IRS, Omega),
a waypoint is usually inserted as latitude and longitude coordinates. For semi-
automated navigation systems (i.e. Doppler), a waypoint is usually inserted as
a bearing and distance from previous position.
Note:
All Omega stations have been completely shut-down by the end of 1997. So,
Omega navigation system is no longer in use within Garuda’s fleet.

D. GENERAL NAVIGATION PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES.


Experience indicates that the increased accuracy and reliability of modern
automatic navigation systems can induce a degree of complacency in the operator
which may result in the failure to routinely cross check system performance.
Under these circumstances, human errors may remain undetected for excessive
periods. Although navigation errors are infrequent occurrences, human errors have
accounted for a majority of the errors attributed to aircraft equipped with automated
systems.
Most inadvertent navigation errors have occurred when the equipment was

C O PY
functioning normally. The operating procedures prescribed were either inadequate
or were not followed. A common error associated with automated system is

ingredients of safe oceanic navigation.
Although operational procedures (checklist) may differ slightly between specific
navigation systems, many good practices and procedures are basic to all
automated and semi-automated systems. These basic practices and procedures
are presented in this paragraph:

1) Preflight Planning
One of the basic fundamental of good navigation is prior Planning. A side from
planning to ensure successful navigation under normal circumstances, the
successful resolution of many inflight navigation difficulties depends to a large
degree of throughout preflight planning. Some of the more important factors
are addressed below.

a) The Navigation flight plan


Since Garuda uses a computerized flight plan, this planning task has been
greatly simplified. However, care should be taken to verify that all en route
waypoints are correctly and legibly shown on the flight plan. Also, it is
desirable to select a waypoint loading sequence and number each waypoint
accordingly.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 2



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

If more than one copy of the flight plan is used by various crew member,
designate one of the official copy to eliminate possible confusion, ensure
that all necessary information (i.e. routing changes, estimated times of
arrival, waypoint loading sequence) is recorded on this flight plan and this
copy is used for all reports to ATC.
Additionally if the flight is within the North Atlantic organized track structure
(OTS), obtain a copy of the current track message (ATC expects the flight
crewmember to have a copy) and be alert for a conflict between the flight
plan and the track message.
Track messages are issued periodically and describe the North Atlantic
routes, gateways and flight levels available for eastbound and westbound
flights during the period indicated in the message (usually 12 hours).
The same concept should apply for Central East Pacific routes with
minimum navigation performance separation (MNPS) requirement.

b) Weather
In addition to the normal review of weather information concerning
terminals, be alert for hazardous weather en-route which may require a
flight plan change or inflight rerouting.

C O PY
It is important to obtain a copy of the wind flow chart (constant pressure
4 4 9

chart or equivalent) for your flight level and route since this information may

accuracy

c) NOTAM
Besides checking notices to airmen (NOTAM) for facilities at departure,
destination and alternate airports, NOTAM concerning navigation aids or
special airspace restrictions along the planned route of flight should be
checked.

d) Equipment preflight
 In addition to operating procedures (checklists) to confirm proper
system operation, care should be taken to ensure that the navigation
equipment is properly programmed. This is very important procedure
which should not be rushed.
All navigation information (coordinates or courses and distance) should
be programmed by one flight crewmember and verified for correctness
by another. Also, verify that the same waypoint loading sequence is
used for each system.
At this time, it is desirable to indicate on the flight plan that the present
position (if applicable) and waypoints have been entered and cross-
checked. If time becomes a factor, it is more important to verify that the

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 3



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

first 2 or 3 waypoints are correct than to rush through the procedure to


insert as much information as possible.
Consideration should be given to using another cross-check which
compares the flight plan or charted distance between waypoints and the
distance computed by the navigation system to detect programming or
flight planning errors. This serve as a double check on waypoint
verification and will also reveal an error in the flight plan should one
exist.
A difference in distance of more than 2 nm may indicate a programming
or flight plan error.
 It is advisable not to transcribe waypoints coordinates from source
documents (track messages, en-route charts, etc.) onto the flight plan
for insertion into the navigation computers.
In order to avoid errors in transcription, waypoint coordinates should be
inserted in to the computers directly from the source documents.
 Since the initial stages of the flight can be very busy, consideration
should be given to ensuring the navigation system waypoint transfer
switches are placed in auto to facilitate outbound tracking and waypoint
change over during this period.

long range navigation equipment is functioning properly. To confirm proper
operation, certain cross-checks should be performed while within range of the
gateway navigation aid. Since this may be the last positive position cross-check
until the inbound gateway, the following practices may also provide valuable
information for resolving any later navigation difficulties:
a) ATC clearance
All ATC oceanic clearances should be cross checked by two members to
ensure the clearance is copied correctly. Any flight plan waypoints which
may have been revised in an ATC clearance, should be crossed out and
the revised coordinates entered in a legible manner.
Prior to proceeding outbound gateway, the currently effective ATC
clearance should be compared to the flight plan and the information in the
navigation computers for the gateway and the subsequent waypoints
should be verified.

OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT

b) Gross error check


A gross error check is a position accuracy cross-check, using normal airway
facilities such as VOR, VOR-DME or NDB. The gross error check is usually
accomplished by flying directly over the gateway (if possible) and
subsequently establishing the aircraft on the outbound course using the
gateway navigation aid. This check serves the following purposes:
 Detects errors which may have occurred in position information since
takeoff.
 Provides information which can be used to determine which system is
most accurate for use as a steering reference.
 Provides an opportunity to correct position information, if necessary.
 Can be used to confirm that the aircraft is established on the outbound
course and is tracking toward the next waypoint.
 Can be used to confirm that the aircraft is proceeding via the currently
effective ATC clearance.
 Radio/nav switches. In case where flight instruments are used for the
display of either airways (VOR) information or information from the long
range navigation system, the radio/nav switches should be left in the
RADIO position after passing the gateway navigation aid until the radio
information begins to become degraded. Then switches should be

The compass deviations can be applied to the respective compasses to
determine the actual magnetic heading. Local variation can be applied to
the true heading on each INS/IRS to obtain the derived magnetic headings.
The most accurate INS/IRS should be the one with a magnetic heading
which compares favorably with the actual magnetic heading.

3) En-route : after passing the gateway


The following practices should be used to monitor flight progress and confirm
that the assigned route of flight is maintained:
a) The system determined to be the most accurate during the gross error
check, should usually be selected as the autopilot steering reference.
b) Whenever possible, the system designated as a steering reference should
routinely display present position information.
c) Another system should be selected to routinely indicate cross-track
information.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 5



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

d) Cross-track, distance to go, and track angle error, if available should be


periodically cross checked to confirm that the track centerline is maintained.

4) En-route : approaching each waypoint


When within approximately two minutes of each waypoint. The following
practices should be used:
a) Both pilots should verify that the subsequent waypoint in the navigation
displays agrees with the currently effective ATC clearance.
b) Position information on the navigation displays should be recorded and
compared with the currently effective ATC clearance in order to ensure that
the aircraft is where it is supposed to be.

5) En-route : after passing each waypoint


Within several minutes after passing each Waypoint, the following practices
should be used:
a) Confirm that the navigation systems have switched to the next flight
segment.
b) Confirm that the aircraft is tracking along the next flight segment.

d) When overhead the gateway, record the position information from the
navigation displays. This information can be used to confirm system
accuracy. It is recommended that system accuracy computation be made
after arrival to avoid conflicts with other cockpit duties during the critical
periods of descend, approach and landing.

7) After arrival
The individual navigation system errors and error rates, if applicable should be
computed and recorded for future reference. It is desirable to record this
information in a document which remains aboard the aircraft to provide
subsequent flight crewmembers with a recent history of system performance.
This information may be used with most systems to predict individual system
performance for future flights under similar circumstances. Additionally this
information may prove valuable to subsequent flight crewmembers for
resolving navigation abnormalities, such as divergence between systems.

12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

E. SPECIAL PRACTICE AND PROCEDURES – INS, IRS, FMC/IRS


In addition to the general practices and procedures in paragraph 6, the following
recommendation apply specifically to INS, IRS, FMC/IRS:
1) PRE FLIGHT
a) Since INS, IRS, FMC/IRS are a dead reckoning device and not a position
fixing device, any error induced during alignment will be retained and
possibly incremented throughout the flight unless removed through
updating procedures. Therefore, during preflight, care should be exercised
to ensure that accurate present position information is inserted into the INS,
IRS, FMC/IRS.
Although most INS, IRS, FMC/IRS will automatically detect large errors in
present position, longitude errors may exist without activating a warning
indication. Therefore when cross checking present position coordinates, be
alert for the correct hemispheric indicator, as well as the correct numerical
values.
Since most INS, IRS, FMC/IRS cannot be realigned inflight, special
procedures, such as ground alignment, may be required to correct a
significant error in present position. If the INS, IRS, FMC/IRS in use have
the capability of simultaneous loading by use of a remote feature (e.g.

C O PY
FMC’s CDU), care should be taken so that any data entered by this method

is cross checked separately on each individual INS, IRS, FMC/IRS to detect9
data insertion errors.

R ose moving the aircraft. Most FMC/IRS’s do this activation automatically. Any
movement of the aircraft prior to activating the navigation mode may induce
very large errors which can only be corrected by ground alignment.
d) After the INS, IRS is placed in the navigation mode or the FMC/IRS
alignment is ready in navigation mode, ground speed (or tax speed) should
be checked when the aircraft is stationery. An erroneous reading of more
than a few knots may indicate a faulty or less reliable unit. If this occurs, a
check should be made on the malfunction codes.

2) INFLIGHT UPDATING
Since INS, IRS are essentially accurate and reliable, there is the possibility that
in attempt to obtain a slight improvement in accuracy by inflight updating, a
human mistake may result in a more serious error.
On the other hand, INS, IRS errors generally increase with time and are not
self-correcting. Therefore, if large tracking errors are permitted to occur, aircraft
safety and separation criteria may be significantly degraded. The
aforementioned factors should be considered in any decision relative to inflight
updating.
As a guide to flight crewmember, Garuda Indonesia considers that unless the
ground facility provide a precise check, and unless the error is fairly significant

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 7



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

(e.g. more than 6 nm or 2 nm/hour), it is preferable to retain the error rather


than update.
Most FMC/IRS’s are capable of automatic inflight updating when within range
of VOR/DME stations, while manual updating is still possible.

12.4.3 REDUCED VERTICAL SEPARATION MINIMUM (RVSM)


Aircraft authorized for operations in RVSM airspace shall provide the following
functions when operating in defined RVSM airspace (VSM of 300 meters (1,000 FEET)
applied above FL290):
a) Indicates to the flight crewmember the flight level being flown;
b) Automatically maintains a selected flight level;
c) Provides an alert to the flight crewmember when a deviation occurs from the
selected flight level. The threshold for the alert shall not exceed 90 m (300 FEET);
d) Automatically reports pressure altitude.

A. GENERAL OPERATING POLICY AND PROCEDURES


Generally, flight crewmember operating procedures in RVSM airspace are no
different than those in any other airspace; however, the implementation of RVSM
necessitates some development and/or changes in procedures. Given the safety

Post Flight
 Make AML entries against malfunctions.
 In making aircraft maintenance log book entries against malfunctions in height-
keeping systems, the flight crewmember should provide sufficient detail to
enable maintenance to effectively troubleshoot and repair the system.
The flight crewmember should write down in detail the actual defect and the crew
action taken to try to isolate and rectify the fault. The following information should
be noted when appropriate:
 Primary and standby altimeter readings.
 Altitude selector setting.
 Subscale setting on altimeter.
 Autopilot used to control the airplane and any differences when the alternate
system was selected.
 Differences in altimeter readings if alternate static ports selected.
 Use of air data computer selector for fault diagnosis procedure.
 Transponder selected to provide altitude information to ATC and any difference
if alternate transponder or altitude source is manually selected.

the basic concept of inflight contingency is as follows:
 Notify ATC and coordinate a plan of action, if possible request an ATC
clearance before deviating from assigned route or flight level.
 Follow established contingency procedures to leave the assigned route or track
for that specific area (refer to OM-A Chapter 12.4.3-03 for Pacific area), and
obtain ATC clearance.
 If unable to obtained revised ATC clearance in a timely manner and action is
required to avoid potential conflict with other aircraft, then the aircraft should be
flown at an altitude and/or on a track where other aircraft are least likely to be
encountered. This can be accomplished by offsetting from routes or altitudes
normally flown in the airspace. The Doc 7030 paragraphs entitled “Special
Procedures for Inflight Contingencies” provide recommendations on the order of
preference for the following pilot actions:
 The pilot may offset half the lateral distance between routes or tracks.
 The pilot may offset half the vertical distance between altitudes normally
flown.
 The pilot may also consider descending below FL 285 or climbing above FL
410. (The vast majority of oceanic traffic has been found to operate between

FL 290 and 410. Flight above FL 410 or below FL 285 may limit exposure to
conflict with other aircraft).
 When executing a contingency maneuver the pilot should:
 Watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS, if
equipped.
 Continue to alert other aircraft using 121.5 MHz (as a backup, the VHF
inter-pilot air-to-air frequency may be used) and aircraft lights.
 Continue to fly offset tracks or altitudes until an ATC clearance is obtained.
 Obtain an ATC clearance as soon as possible.

Wake Turbulence Procedures


The ATS authorities developed pilot and ATC procedures for aircraft experiencing
wake turbulence. These procedures provide for the contingency use of a 2 NM lateral
offset to avoid exposure to wake turbulence. The procedures have been published in
State NOTAMS and AIPs and are planned for publication in Regional Supplementary
Procedures.

Transponder Failure in RVSM Transition Areas


The specific actions that ATC will take in the event of transponder failure in RVSM
transition areas will be determined by the provider States. (Transition areas are
planned to be established between airspace where different vertical separation
standards are applied).

ROperating Procedures in Pacific Oceanic
The operating procedures applied in the Pacific Oceanic RVSM are basically to
follow the “General Operating Policy and Procedures” in paragraph 3 (OM-A
Chapter 12.4.3-02).

Weather Deviation Procedures


The following procedures are intended to provide guidance. All possible
circumstances cannot be covered. The pilot’s judgement shall ultimately determine
the sequence of actions taken and ATC shall render all possible assistance.
If the aircraft is required to deviate from track to avoid weather and prior clearance
cannot be obtained, an air traffic control clearance shall be obtained at the earliest
possible time. In the meantime, the aircraft shall broadcast its position (including the
ATS route designator or the track code, as appropriate) and intentions, on the
frequency in use, as well as on frequency 121.5 MHz, at suitable intervals until ATC
clearance is received.
The pilot shall advise ATC when weather deviation is no longer required, or when a
weather deviation has been completed and the aircraft has returned to the centreline
of its cleared route.

Obtaining ATC priority:


When the pilot initiates communications with ATC, rapid response may be obtained
by stating "WEATHER DEVIATION REQUIRED" to indicate that priority is desired
on the frequency and for ATC response.
The pilot still retains the option of initiating the communications using the urgency
call "PAN PAN PAN" to alert all listening parties to a special handling condition which
may receive ATC priority for issuance of a clearance or assistance.
When controller-pilot communications are established, the pilot shall notify ATC and
request clearance to deviate from track, advising, when possible, the extent of the
deviation expected. ATC will take one of the following actions:
 if there is no conflicting traffic in the horizontal dimension, ATC will issue
clearance to deviate from track; or
 if there is conflicting traffic in the horizontal dimension, ATC will separate aircraft
by establishing vertical separation or, if unable to establish vertical separation,
ATC shall:
 advise the pilot that standard separation cannot be applied;
 provide essential traffic information for all affected aircraft; and
 if possible, suggest a course of action.

advised of intentions and obtain essential traffic information.

12.4.4 PERFORMANCE BASED NAVIGATION (PBN)


Performance-based navigation is an area navigation based on performance
requirements for aircraft operating along an ATS route, on an instrument approach
procedure or in a designated airspace.
Performance requirements are expressed in navigation specifications in terms of
accuracy, integrity, continuity, availability and functionality needed for the proposed
operation in the context of a particular airspace concept.
Two fundamental aspects of any PBN operation are the requirements set out in the
appropriate navigation specification and the navigation aid infrastructure (both ground-
and space-based) allowing the system to operate.

Navigation specification

Navigation aid (navaid) infrastructure


Navaid infrastructure refers to space-based and or ground-based navigation aids
available to meet the requirements in the navigation specification.

Navigation application
The application of a navigation specification and the supporting navaid infrastructure,
to routes, procedures, and/or defined airspace volume, in accordance with the
intended airspace concept.
The navigation application is one element, along with communication, surveillance and
Air Traffic Management (ATM) procedures which meet the strategic objectives in a
defined airspace concept.

RNAV operations
Aircraft operations using area navigation for RNAV applications. RNAV operations
include the use of area navigation for operations which are not developed in
accordance with this manual.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 19



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

RNAV system
Navigation system which permits aircraft operation on any desired flight path within the
coverage of station-referenced navigation aids or within the limits of the capability of
self-contained aids, or a combination of these. An RNAV system may be included as
part of a flight management system (FMS).

RNP operations
Aircraft operations using an RNP system for RNP navigation applications.

RNP route
An ATS route established for the use of aircraft adhering to a prescribed RNP
navigation specification.

RNP system
An area navigation system which supports on-board performance monitoring and
alerting.
PBN is one of several enablers of an airspace concept. Communications, ATS
surveillance and ATM are also essential elements of an airspace concept. This is
demonstrated in Figure below. The concept of performance-based navigation (PBN)
relies on the use of an area navigation (RNAV) system. There are two core input

12.4.4.1 P-RNAV/ RNAV-1/ RNP-1, RNAV-2/ RNP-2, RNP-4, B-RNAV/ RNP-5


P-RNAV/ RNAV-1/ RNP-1, RNAV-2/ RNP-2, RNP-4, B-RNAV/ RNP-5 are a
Performance Based Navigation (PBN) that requires accuration of 1,2,4,5 NM
respectively either side of en-route and SID/STAR route. The following is a
guidelines for Pilot and Flight Operations when conducting P-RNAV/ RNAV-1/
RNP-1, RNAV-2/ RNP-2, RNP-4 airspace.
When the term ‘P-RNAV ‘is mentioned, it shall be regarded as representing P-
RNAV/ RNAV-1/ RNP-1.
P-RNAV/ RNAV-1/ RNP-1, RNAV-2/ RNP-2, RNP-4, B-RNAV/ RNP-5 approval
must be obtained before commencing P-RNAV/ RNAV-1/ RNP-1, RNAV-2/ RNP-2,
RNP-4, B-RNAV/ RNP-5 operations.
It should be noted that the procedures detailed in the following paragraphs include
those of a generic nature, to be carried out as part of SOPs. Those which are particularly
relevant or specific to P-RNAV/ RNAV-1/ RNP-1, RNAV-2/ RNP-2, RNP-4, B-RNAV/

C. NOTAM
The NOTAMS must advise lack of availability of any navigation aid that might
affect the navigation infrastructure required for the intended operation,
including any non-RNAV contingencies and must be confirmed for the period
of intended operation.
GNSS specific: if a stand-alone GPS is to be used for P-RNAV, the availability
of RAIM must be confirmed with account taken of the latest information from

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

the US Coastguard or from the EUROCONTROL AUGUR website which give


details of satellite non-availability.

D. Minimum Equipment List (MEL)


Any Navigation equipment unserviceability must be checked against MEL
for effect on RNAV operations. Availability of the onboard navigation
equipment necessary for the route to be flown must be confirmed. In certain
areas, this may include the availability of an autopilot and/or a flight director to
maintain track keeping accuracy.
Where the responsible airspace authority has specified in the AIP that dual P-
RNAV systems are required for a specific Terminal Area P-RNAV procedure,
the availability of dual P-RNAV systems must be confirmed.
This typically will apply where procedures are effective below the applicable
minimum obstacle clearance altitude or where radar coverage is inadequate for
the purposes of supporting P-RNAV. This will also take into account the
particular hazards of a Terminal Area and the feasibility of contingency
procedures following loss of P-RNAV capability.

E. Database
The onboard navigation database must be current and appropriate for the

B. Check of the Active Flight Plan


The active flight plan should be checked by comparing the charts, SID or other
applicable documents, with the map display (if applicable) and the MCDU. This
includes:
 confirmation of the correct waypoint sequence,
 reasonableness of track angles and distances,
 any altitude or speed constraints, and
 correct identification, where possible, of waypoints as fly-by or fly-
over waypoints.
Pilots shall particularly focus on any segment of the P-RNAV/ RNAV-1/ RNP-
1, RNAV-2/ RNP-2, RNAV-4, B-RNAV/ RNP--5 procedure which is below
MSA.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 22



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

If required by a procedure, a check will need to be made to confirm that position


updating will use a specific navigation aid, or to confirm exclusion of a specific
navigation aid.
A procedure shall not be used if doubt exists as to the validity of the procedure
in the navigation database
Note: As a minimum, the departure checks could be a simple inspection of a
suitable display to achieve the objectives of this paragraph.

C. Route Modifications
Route modifications in the Terminal Area may take the form of radar headings
or 'direct to' clearances and the flight crewmember must be ready to react
promptly. This may include the insertion in the flight plan of a waypoint
sequence loaded solely from the database as part of an alternative procedure.
The creation of new waypoints by manual entry into the RNAV system by
the flight crewmember is not permitted as it would invalidate the affected P-
RNAV/ RNAV-1/ RNP-1, RNAV-2/ RNP-2, RNAV-4, B-RNAV/ RNP-5
procedure.

GNSS specific: the signal must be acquired before the takeoff roll commences
and GNSS position then may be used in place of the runway update.

04. DEPARTURE
A. Flight Plan Monitoring
During the procedure and where feasible, flight progress should be monitored
for navigational reasonableness, by cross-checks, with conventional
navigation aids using the primary displays in conjunction with the MCDU.
If P-RNAV capability is not based on GNSS equipage, transition to the P-RNAV
structure shall only be made from the point where the aircraft has entered
DME/DME coverage.
Note: When a procedure is designed to be started conventionally, then the first
point of the P-RNAV procedure will be identified on the charts.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 23



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

B. Track Keeping Monitoring


When using autopilot and/or flight director, particular attention should be paid
to the selected/armed mode as the resultant track keeping accuracy may vary.
Track keeping monitoring of a P-RNAV procedure below MSA will also
require particular attention in degraded conditions such as engine failure, as
both the vertical and the lateral obstacle clearance are more critical.
The creation of new waypoints by manual entry into the RNAV system by the
flight crewmember is not permitted as it would invalidate the P-RNAV procedure.

05. DESCENT AND ARRIVAL


A. Check of the Active Flight Plan
As for departure, prior to the arrival phase, the flight crewmember should verify
that the correct terminal procedure has been loaded.
The active flight plan should be checked by comparing the charts with the map
display (if applicable) and the MCDU.
This includes again:
 confirmation of the waypoint sequence,

The crew briefing shall include reversion to a conventional procedure and the
go-around procedure.
The creation of new waypoints by manual entry into the RNAV system by the
flight crewmember is not permitted as it would invalidate the P-RNAV
procedure.

B. System Accuracy Check


For RNAV systems without GNSS updating, a reasonableness check is
required during the descent phase before reaching the Initial Approach
Waypoint (IAWP).
For example, where feasible, display bearing/range to a VOR/DME on the
RNAV system and compare it to the actual RMI reading of that particular navaid.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

It should be noted that:


 For some systems the accuracy may be derived from the navigation mode
or accuracy mode.
 Where the MCDU is not capable of displaying accuracy in decimal units,
then an approved alternative means of checking will have to be followed.
GNSS specific: for GNSS based systems, absence of a triggered alarm is
considered sufficient
If the check fails, a conventional procedure must then be flown.
Where the contingency to revert to a conventional arrival procedure might be
required, the flight crewmember must make the necessary preparation and
briefing.

C. Route Modifications
Route modifications in the Terminal Area may take the form of radar headings
or 'direct to' ATC clearances and the flight crewmember must be ready to react
promptly. This may include the insertion in the flight plan of a waypoint sequence
loaded solely from the database as part of an alternative procedure.

12.4.4.2 RNP APCH / RNAV (GNSS)
01. INTRODUCTION
The ICAO has asked States to implement the operations described in the PBN
manual (Doc 9613). RNP APCH approach procedures, published under the
name RNAV(GNSS), will therefore become more generally adopted.
Terminology used:
 ABAS: Aircraft Based Augmentation Systems
 APV: Approach Procedure with Vertical Guidance
 FPA: Flight path Angle.
 LPV: Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance
 PBN: Performance Based Navigation, Doc 9613 ICAO manual defining the
RNAV and RNP navigation specifications.
 RNP(APCH) / RNAV(GNSS): The ICAO terminology (PBN Manual) which
designates the RNAV(GNSS) approaches is RNP APCH.
 RNAV/GNSS system: terminology used in the guide to designate the

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 25



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

system used for RNAV(GNSS) approaches. This term covers both GNSS
systems and multi-sensor RNAV (FMS) systems using GNSS. The
corresponding terminology in the PBN is RNP system.
 SBAS: Satellite Based Augmentation System
 V/S: Vertical Speed
Caution: This guide does not deal with "RNP AR APCH" approach procedures,
generally referred to as
RNAV (RNP), which require a particular operational approval process in
accordance with DGCA.

02. OPERATIONAL CRITERIA


An RNP APCH/ RNAV (GNSS) approach typically covers four possible types
of approach procedure:

D. APV SBAS – RNAV(GNSS) LPV or RNP APCH LPV


 Lateral and vertical guidance use the RNAV/GNSS system and are
based on GNSS positioning using the GPS signal and the SBAS. This
is for example the WAAS in the United States and EGNOS in Europe.

E. Initial and intermediate approach


 An RNAV(GNSS) final approach procedure leading to LNAV,
LNAV/VNAV, LP or LPV minima, may be preceded by either an initial
and intermediate RNAV1 approach (generally preceded by an RNAV1
STAR), or by radar guidance as is the case on most of the large airport
platforms.

03. PREFLIGHT PLANNING


The availability of a GNSS service (constellation) sufficient to support the

 Insert the appropriate identifier in the flight plan to indicate the RNP type
(RNP APCH) as set out in the content of Fields 10 and 18 of in ICAO ATC
Flight Plan (“R” and “S1S2”)
 Pilots must also verify that the aircraft position is correct.
 Pilots must verify proper entry of their ATC assigned route upon initial
clearance and any subsequent change of route. Pilots must ensure the
waypoints sequence depicted by their navigation system matches their
assigned route and the route depicted on the appropriate chart
 The aircraft RNP capability is dependent on operational aircraft equipment.
The flight crewmember must be able to assess the impact of equipment
failure on the anticipated RNP operation and take appropriate action. When
the dispatch of a flight is predicated on flying a RNP approach requiring the
use of the autopilot or flight director at the destination and/or alternate, shall
determine that the autopilot and/or flight director is installed and
operational.
 The availability of the navigation infrastructure, required for the intended
routes, procedure, or instrument approaches (including any non-RNP
contingencies) must be confirmed for the period of intended operations

Selection of Alternate Aerodromes During Pre-Flight


Concerning the alternate aerodrome:
1. When application of the operational regulations requires no alternate
destination aerodrome: the destination aerodrome must be accessible by
means of a conventional approach (non RNAV(GNSS));
2. When application of the operational regulations requires at least one
alternate aerodrome: The alternate aerodromes must be accessible by
means of a conventional approach (non RNAV(GNSS));
3. An RNAV(GNSS) approach cannot be used to select an alternate
aerodrome at takeoff;

LNAV or LN AV/VNAV minima.
 EGNOS NOTAMs: concerning the unavailability of the LPV procedure with
regard to the performance of the EGNOS system. These NOTAMs are
supplied for each aerodrome for which an RNAV (GNSS) approach leading
to LPV minima is published.

During pre-flight planning:


1. For an LNAV or LNAV/VNAV approach
The operator must ensure the availability of the RAIM function (or any
equivalent function) at the estimated time of arrival (ETA) +/-15 minutes,
using either the RAIM prediction NOTAMs or the on-board equipment
prediction tool (or software performing the same function as that of the on-
board equipment). In this latter case, information about any possible
satellite unavailability must be input into the predictive program.
 For some avionics architectures, RAIM prediction may only be required
in certain cases (depending on the availability of the constellation) and
must be detailed in the appropriate sections of the supplement to the
flight manual (AFM).
 In the case of GNSS systems comprising a RAIM function using

2. For an LP or LPV approach
 The operator must ensure the availability of the procedure by using the
SBAS NOTAMs (e.g. in Europe EGNOS NOTAMs).
 To make an APV SBAS (LPV) approach, no RAIM prediction is
required, because integrity is managed directly by the SBAS
geostationary satellites.

06. OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES


A. Prior to commencing the approach procedure
In addition to the usual final approach procedures, and before commencing
the approach (before the IAF), the pilot shall check that the correct
procedure, including missed approach, has been loaded, by comparison
with the approach charts. This check shall concern the following points:
 RNP 0.3 is displayed in the FMS.
 The sequence of the various waypoints: the procedure contains all the
waypoints indicated in the approach to be carried out and these
waypoints are in the same order as on the published chart concerning
the procedure.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 29



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

 The reasonableness of the tracks and distances of the various


approach segments and, for the final approach segment, its length and
route.
Note: This at least involves checking the flight path displayed on the
navigation screen (ND, MFD...) against the approach chart.
 The final angle of descent in the case of APV Baro VNAV, LPV
approaches, or if the (Baro) VNAV function is used.
 That the GNSS sensor is used for position computation; and
 If barometric aiding is used that the current airport barometric altimeter
setting is entered.
Display selection:
 Approach procedure path is displayed; and
 Cross-track deviation monitoring is available.
Note:
 Air Traffic Control (ATC) tactical interventions in the terminal area may
include radar headings, or ‘direct to’ clearances which bypass the initial
legs of an approach, intercept an initial or intermediate segment of an
approach, or require insertion of waypoints loaded from the database.

R07. PROCEDURES FOR USE OF THE (BARO) VNAV FUNCTION
There are two possible situations for using the (Baro) VNAV function:
 Either to manage the vertical plane of non-precision approaches (to help
with CDFA)
 Or to carry out an APV (Baro) VNAV (required function)
Note: There are associated risks when using (Baro) VNAV function, therefore
use extra precaution.
In both cases, the pilots must take the usual precautions:

A. Altimeter setting
The pilots must know that the vertical flight path in (Baro) VNAV is
influenced by altimeter setting errors. These errors may not be detected by
a cross-check between the altimeter reading and the values given on the
approach chart (altitude – distance verification).
RNAV (GNSS) LNAV/VNAV approaches are not authorized if there is no
local altimeter setting (local QNH).

Display error of 10 HPa (e.g.: 996 HPa

Display error of 10 HPa (e.g. 1016

CFIT

It is also important for the pilot to have recent altimeter setting information.
The crew should thus request confirmation of the altimeter setting before
passing the FAF.

B. Effect of temperature

C O PY 4 4 9
If the temperature is significantly different from the ISA value, the (Baro)
L ED 5 .0 1
VNAV vertical plane will be different from the nominal plane of the
RO L n g /
procedure, with no effect on the information presented to the pilot. Thus a
O N T n g g a
vertical slope based on the altimeter information will be shallower in cold

the actual slope will be 2.6° for ISA -30 (red line) and therefore closer to
any obstacles, and will be 3.2° for ISA+15°(blue line) and thus steeper.

C. Temperature correction
On certain avionics equipment, it is possible to enter the temperature at the
airport, so that the system can correct the vertical profile in (Baro) VNAV.

D. Case of temperatures below minimum temperatures published on the


approach chart
On the RNAV (GNSS) approach charts for which there is an APV (Baro)
VNAV approach (presence of LNAV/VNAV minima), a minimum
temperature use is published.
As a general rule, pilots should not use the FMS (Baro) VNAV function
when the temperature is below the temperature limit published on the
approach chart.

The associated non-precision approach (LNAV) can be performed but

E. Case of radar guidance


According to the information published in the AIP, for certain approaches,
the air traffic controllers can provide radar guidance to the final approach
segment prior to the FAF. In this case, the RNAV/GNSS system must be
capable of indicating the horizontal deviation relative to the extended final
approach segment, in order to facilitate interception of the extended final
approach segment. Guidance leading to interception of the final axis less
than 2NM before the FAF should not be accepted.
 Manual input of the coordinates into the GNSS system by the pilot for
use in the terminal area is not authorized.
 "Direct to" clearances to the IF can be accepted provided that the
resulting track change does not exceed 45°, as the aircraft must not
intercept the final segment less than 2NM from the FAF, in order to
ensure stabilization of the final flight path.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 32



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND

12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

 "Direct to" clearances to the FAF must not be accepted.


 "Direct to" clearances to a waypoint which does not belong to the
procedure must not be accepted.
Final Approach: Aircraft is established on the final approach course no
later than the final approach fix.
Descent in the final segment is not commenced unless:
 The correct approach mode is enunciated; or
 RNP 0.3 is selected and available.

08. Occasional operational procedures


Occasional procedures suited to the architecture of the navigation system, the
failures and alarms linked to the RNAV/GNSS equipment and to the display
system, must be developed by the operator on the basis of the information
supplied by the aircraft manufacturer (AFM, FCOM, etc.).
In the event of a redundant or complex installation (e.g. multi-sensor), partial or
multiple failure situations must be envisaged and the associated procedures
developed.

LNAV/VNAV and LPV approaches


 In the event of loss of vertical guidance (even if lateral guidance is still
displayed)
 Excessive flight technical error (excessive deviation8 observed on the
vertical deviation indicator)

Case of LPV to LNAV reversion


For LPV approaches, some systems allow LPV to LNAV reversion if the
vertical signal is lost or degraded. In this case, if LPV to LNAV reversion
takes place before the FAF/FAP, the crew can envisage continuing with the
approach to the LNAV minima. However, if reversion occurs after the
FAF/FAP, go-around is required, unless the pilot has in sight the visual
references required to continue the approach.
Unless otherwise instructed by ATC, a missed approach must be performed
according to the published procedure. The missed approach must thus be
carried out in compliance with the following requirements:

A-01 Missed approach protected by conventional navigation means

navigation means and the approach has to be aborted for a reason

use RNAV/GNSS system guidance to follow the missed approach
procedure.

Extraction procedure

The operator may have defined previously in their procedures, an
emergency procedure for the case where the loss of RNAV guidance during
the approach does not allow to follow the missed approach procedure
provided for the considered runway.

12.4.4.3 MNPS
MNPS (Minimum Navigation Performance Specification) is a set of standards that
requires procedural and equipment requirements specified for the conduct of flight
operations in certain defined airspace.
For flights in defined portions of airspace where, based on Regional Air Navigation
Agreement such as North Atlantic (NAT), Minimum Navigation Performance
Specification (MNPS) are prescribed.
Garuda Indonesia does not conduct MNPS for regular flight except for special flight
with designated crew and specialized trained (such as VVIP Flight) and only for
A330.

A. GENERAL
The Minimum Navigation Performance Specification (MNPS) or Required
Navigation Performance (RNP) defines navigational accuracy requirements in
certain airspace, such as:
 Two navigational systems meeting the MNPS/RNP (such as dual IRS/IRU
combined with dual FMC and/or GPS). See relevant FCOM/AOM.
 For Tasmania Sea; Central East Pacific (RNP-10): lateral track error to be
less than 2 NM/hour, maximum base time limit 5 hours, beginning since the
last time it was radio up-dated until it is again entering radio up-dated
environment or radar control environment. ( 10 NM left and right of track,
95% of the time)
 The Required Navigation Performance for Europe RNAV Airspace is “Basic
RNAV” (RNP-5): Lateral track error not more than 5 NM left and right of

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 36



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

track, 95% of the time, with automatic radio updating capability and system
serviceability 99% of the time. In case no automatic radio updating
capability, operation in RNP-5 airspace is limited not more than 2 hours.
Note:
European RNAV route normally identified by the route designator: UL, UM, UN,
UP, UA, followed by a three digit number (e.g. UM782)
Application of the separation minimum results in accommodation of more traffic
close to optimum routes.
To ensure compliance with MNPS/RNP the accuracy performance must be
monitored. The monitoring activities include flight crewmember reports of
excessive deviations from the assigned track (depending on the RNP
requirements) and routine surveillance by ATC.
The implicit conditions of the concept of MNPS/RNP are that awareness of the
accuracy requirements and the highest operating standards must be
maintained.
For operation in RNP airspace (Europe Basic RNAV/RNP-5; Tasman
Sea/RNP-10; Central East Pacific/RNP-10), study:

C. OCEANIC CLEARANCE REQUEST


Efficient traffic flow planning by ATS requires an early request for the oceanic
clearance. Give an accurate OCA boundary estimate as planned longitudinal
separation by ATC is based solely on this estimate.

D. ACCURACY IN MNPS/RNP AIRSPACE


Traffic separation requirements in RNP airspace necessitate high operating
standards both for navigation and for ATS procedures.
With the autopilot coupled to the navigation system, infringement of separation
standards may originate from:
 navigation system performance
 navigation system handling (waypoint insertion errors, incorrect updating,
“finger trouble”)
 ATS system loop errors
 Along track inaccuracies

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 37



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.4 NAVIGATIONAL PROCEDURES

Equipment handling errors


Equipment handling errors (of which half were waypoint insertion errors) ICAO
reports, is the largest single cause of observed gross navigational errors in
MNPS/RNP airspace. The risk of making such error can be reduced by cross
checking of entries in navigational systems and subsequent monitoring of the
system. (See OM-A Chapter 12.3.2 - The use of long range navigational
equipment’s - INS, IRS/FMC)

ATS system loop errors


By definition an ATC system loop error is any error caused by a
misunderstanding between the pilot and ATS regarding the assigned flight
level, air speed or route to be followed (caused in dispatch, error in coordination
between ATS units or pilots misinterpretation of clearances).
Careful adherence to clearance read-back and position reporting procedures
give ATS opportunities for an early detection of such errors.

Along track inaccuracies


Accurate along track navigation includes careful application of the Mach No.
technique, accurate position reporting and the use of correct GMT in reporting
these positions.

o When the flight changes to the flight plan may be
R requested; e.g. Mach, climb to a higher (opposite) flight level. The need to
request such changes for the purpose of fuel conservation is fully understood
by ATC. However, message relay by communicators of GP stations and intra-
center coordination by air traffic controllers cause a time lag.
To minimize time lag effects, Ocean airspace planners recommend:
 Give advance notice to the step-climb request. The ideal lead-time of
approximately 40 minutes is obtained if the step-climb is requested at the
reporting point prior to the position at which the step- climb is desired;
 Unless ATC has already responded, repeat the request for the step-climb
when reaching the position previously indicated for that purpose;
 Preferably request a change to the flight plan with a position report. If it is
not done it is helpful to include a reference to the current flight level and
route.
In case a route change is requested, ensure that the revised ATC clearance
includes the new routing from the exit oceanic airspace to the first landfall point
or coastal fix.

In case a further reduction in navigation capability occurs, MNPS/RNP
capability could be lost.
Incapability to meet MNPS/RNP
The MNPS requirements for 747-400, A-330 and 737 are dual FMC/IRS.
The consequences of degradation in navigation performance capability below
the specified requirements depend on the position relative to MNPS/RNP
airspace:
 Failure occurs before the MNPS boundary is reached.
 Failure occurs after the MNPS boundary is crossed.

a) Failure occurs before entering the MNPS/RNP airspace:


The following options are available:
 Obtain a (re)clearance below or above MNPS/RNP airspace
 Reroute around MNPS/RNP airspace
 Obtain a (re)clearance via one of the special routes.

descend, turn back or both are required.
As all emergency conditions cannot be covered, pilot’s judgment shall
determine the sequence of action taken, having regard to the specific
circumstances:
Action guidance
Initial action:
 Try to obtain a revised ATC clearance, use telephony distress or urgency
signal as appropriate.
 If prior clearance cannot be obtained, broadcast on 121.50 and give :
1. Position ( including track code or route designator )
2. Intentions
3. Turn 90*. (* The direction of the turn should be determined by the
position relative to any organized route or track system and, if
appropriate, terrain clearance).

01. FLIGHT PLANNING PHASE
During flight planning, the flight crewmembers and dispatchers (FOO) should pay
attention to conditions, which affect operation in IFR and VFR airspace. These
include, but may not be limited to:
 That the aircraft is approved for IFR and VFR operations.
 Ensure that ICAO Flight Plan Form Item 8 must be annotated with letter “Y” if
the flight initially will be operated under the lFR, followed by one or more
subsequent changes of flight rules; or
“Z” if the flight initially will be operated under the VFR, followed by one or more
subsequent changes of flight rules as appropriate. E.g.: FPL-GIA7113-ZS
 Specify in Item 15 ICAO Flight Plan point or points at which a change of Flight
Rules is planned. The point at which the change of flight rules is planned,
expressed as appropriate, as follows:

01. STANDARD ALTIMETER SETTING PROCEDURES


The procedures are intended for use in providing adequate vertical separations
between airplanes and adequate terrain clearance during all phases of flight.
Garuda Indonesia flight crewmember shall use the following procedures:
 During takeoff and on the ground, both pressure altimeters are set on QNH
pressure.
 After takeoff when airplane passes the transition altitude, both altimeters shall be
set to standard pressure 1013 hPa or 29.92 inHg.
 Up to transition level of destination / alternate airport, both pressure altimeters shall
maintain standard pressure settings.
 When airplane passes transition level, or as instructed by ATC both pressure
altimeters shall be set on destination / alternate QNH.
 Prior to landing, pilots must always obtain the airport QNH.

02. CHECKING OF BAROMETRIC ALTIMETERS


Before leaving the ramp, the pressure scale of all altimeters shall be set to the actual
aerodrome QNH, except that standby and metric altimeter may be set to standard. The
altimeter indications obtained shall be observed and checked against the elevation of
the aerodrome at the location of the airplane.

Local QNH : 975 hPa = minus 1080 feet, meaning True Altitude only 14.920 feet.
If MEA would be 15.000 feet, the minimum required Obstacle Clearance will not be assured. The
next higher flight level must be used.

04. ALTITUDE CORRECTION DUE TO COLD TEMPERATURE


A. Background
If the outside air temperature (OAT) is different from standard atmospheric
temperature (ISA), the barometric altimeter error will result due to non-standards
air density. Larger temperature difference from standards result in larger altimeter
error.

When temperature is than ISA, true altitude will be than indicated

 A determination of which procedures or routes, if any, that has been designed
for cold temperature and can be flown as published without altitude corrections.

Pilots should note that for very cold temperature when flying published minimum
altitude significantly above the airport, altimeter error could exceed 1000 feet,
resulting in potentially unsafe terrain clearance if no corrections are made.

B. Procedures
The following altitude correction procedures should be considered when operating
in cold weather.
 Pilot should apply cold temperature correction to all published minimum departure,

Altitude according table 1.
Note:
 Advice ATC of the correction.
 No corrections are required for reported temperature above 0 degree C / 32
degrees F.
 Subtract the elevation of the altimeter barometric reference setting source from the
published minimum altitude intended to be flown to determine “height above
altimeter source “.
 Enter table 1 according to the reported temperature (at the altimeter barometric
reference setting source) in the left column and read across to the nearest
correction under the “height above the altimeter source “. Add the correction to the
altitude to be flown (published altitude) to determine the corrected altitude to be
flown. See the example below.
If correcting an altitude above 5000 feet, use linear extrapolation for simplicity (e.g.

Note:

06. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONS


The standard altimeter setting procedures is based on the principle that the transition
from en-route standard altimeter setting (1013.2 hPa) to a landing altimeter setting
(QNH) takes place during descent and from a takeoff QNH to an en-route standard
setting (1013.2 hPa) during climb.
This concept enables aircraft operating well above critical terrain to operate along
continuous isobaric surfaces, without the necessity for frequent altimeter adjustments,
which often necessitate large altitude adjustments, and upset previously established
vertical separation.
However, the procedure requires adequate precautions in determination usable, i.e.
safe flight levels over high terrain.
ATC ensures that the lowest flight level in use will provide at least 1.000 feet terrain
clearance.

12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND

12.5 ALTIMETER SETTING PROCEDURES

All flights operating level at or above the transition level shall be flown at flight levels
and maintain vertical separation by reference to an altimeter set to 1013.2 hPa. All
flights operating level at or below the transition altitude shall be flown standard altitudes
and maintain vertical separation by reference to an altimeter set to the QNH valid for
the airport or area concerned.
All flights passing through the transition layer shall have their altimeter set to 1013.2
hPa when climbing, and to be the QNH valid for the airport or area concerned when
descending. Level flight in the transition layer is not normally allowed.
The standard altimeter setting procedure is applied irrespective whether IMC or VMC
prevail.
 Transition Altitude
A transition altitude shall be specified for each airport by the State in which the
airport is situated and shall be published and depicted on instrument approach
chart (Where appropriate, Garuda Indonesia publish transition altitudes on the
approach and landing charts).
The height of the transition altitude shall be as low as operationally possible but
never less than 1.500 feet above airport elevation.
From the foregoing it is evident that a transition altitude always has a fixed value.

The transition layer shall normally occupy an area in the vicinity of an airport only.
Note:
Although no longer required under the ICAO procedure, certain States prescribed a
minimum a thickness of 1.000 feet for the transition layer. In that case the application
of the standard altimeter setting procedure automatically provides for at least 1.000
feet vertical separation between aircraft flying on 1013.2 hPa (at or above the
transition altitude).
Where States do not prescribe a minimum thickness for the transition layer, the
minimum required vertical separation of 1.000 feet is obtained by instructing aircraft
concerned to maintain specific flight levels or altitudes ensuring such separation.

 Altimeter Setting Changes


Takeoff and initial climb are executed on the valid airport QNH while passing through
the transition altitude the altimeter is set to the standard setting of 1013.2 hPa.

 Descent and Landing


Descent is executed on the standard setting of 1013.2 hPa until:
 reaching the transition level, or
 instructed by ATC
Thereafter after, further descend and landing is executed on the valid airport QNH.
Note:
In cases where more than one airport is in close proximity ATC procedures may
involve the use of a common QNH setting for control purposes. Airport QNH values
would then be used only for takeoff, initial climb, approach and landing.

the calculated time window.
Special approval is required for a CAT II/III approach. In case of an engine failure,
such approval is not obtained for the aircraft type(s) and consequently the planning
of CAT II/III at ETOPS En-Route Airport is not allowed.

04. Fuel
For dispatching an ETOPS flight, the flight dispatcher must determine, for the
considered route, both a standard and on ETOPS fuel planning. The highest of
both fuel requirements shall be considered as being the minimum required block
fuel for the flight.

The ETOPS critical fuel scenario shall be applied.


In the case of a verification/proving flight, the block fuel shall be based on the
highest fuel figure of a Non-ETOPS flight plan and the intended ETOPS flight plan
(if applicable).
ETOPS Fuel Planning
For ETOPS a specific fuel planning, also called “critical fuel reserves”, must be
established.
The ETOPS fuel planning is split in two parts:
 First parts a standard fuel scenario from departure point to the critical point
(CP).
 Second parts the critical fuel scenario from CP to diversion airport.
The critical fuel scenario is based on a combination or single failure of an engine
failure and or a depressurization failure occurring at the critical point.
A descend is initiated to FL100 and continued with a single engine cruise to the
diversion airport.
However, flight above FL100 is allowed if the aircraft is equipped with supplemental

available from each ETP and CP giving the deficiency fuel if any to be added as
ETOPS extra fuel in the block required fuel for that flight.

Note:
Additional fuel as a penalty required caused by exposure to icing conditions is
computed in the computerized flight plan. Flight Crewmember shall use their best-
experienced judgment in studying the meteorological conditions expected on route
to assess the final block fuel required.

06. Release to Service


An ETOPS pre-flight inspection must be carried out and signed for by a type
licensed Technician prior to each departure. However, if during an ETOPS flight a
Non-schedule landing has to be made for other reasons than technical
malfunctions, the Pilot in Command may release the aircraft to service for
continuation of the ETOPS flight.

07. Destination Alternates


When destination alternates are selected requiring a route that cannot be covered
by the Non-ETOPS rules, the critical fuel scenario should be calculated for the
diversion route. ETOPS rules are applicable to the diversion route and the time
window and critical fuel scenario have to be calculated. This alternate may be used

12.6.3 ETOPS AREA OF OPERATIONS


ETOPS operations are allowed within a well-defined area of operation. The size of the
area depends on the maximum diversion time granted, the selected one engine out
diversion speed and the number and location of the selected adequate diversion
airports.
The area of operation is determined in still air and generally ISA conditions, considering
the relevant aircraft performance with one engine inoperative, the remaining engine at
MCT or less. Therefore, the area operation is determined once, not reassessed for
each flight otherwise one or more adequate airports happen to be unsuitable.
The aircraft performance level considered for the calculation is associated to a unique
aircraft weight, which is called the aircraft reference weight.
a. Aircraft reference weight

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 4



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.6 ETOPS

The aircraft reference weight is defined as the highest estimated gross weight
values at the critical points of the various routes being considered within the given
area of operation.
The computation will be done considering a takeoff at the maximum take weight
and a standard speed schedule, in still air and ISA or delta ISA conditions, taking
to account different sets of en route alternates (thus resulting in different CP
locations).
Calculations for Garuda Indonesia is made by the aircraft manufacturer and the
Garuda Indonesia performance and engineering department.
b. Diversion speed schedule / maximum diversion, distance considering the aircraft
reference weight and the selected one engine inoperative diversion cruise flight
level, providing the best True Airspeed (TAS).
Basically the resulting TAS at the diversion flight level, combined with the maximum
diversion time allowed, provides the maximum diversion distance.
For example, the Airbus A-330 FCOM provides performance data tables for
maximum diversion distance for a sample of diversion times, based on several
reference weights and a selected speed schedule.

12.6 ETOPS

Maximum diversion time


The maximum diversion time (75, 90, 120, or 180 minutes) from an en-route alternate
airport is granted by the DGCA and is included in the ACL.
It is used only for determining the area of operation, and therefore is not an operational
time limitation for conducting a diversion, which has to cope with the prevailing weather
conditions.

Maximum diversion distance


Is the distance covered in still air and ISA (or delta ISA) conditions within the maximum
diversion time at the selected one-engine-out diversion speed schedule and at the
associated cruise altitude (including the descent from the initial cruise altitude to the
diversion cruise altitude). It is used for dimensioning the area of operations.

For ETOPS operation, the one engine inoperative diversion speed will be higher than
the one used in standard operation. To extend the area of operation, the typical ETOPS
diversion strategy is called “fixed speed strategy” in the FCOM in order to differentiate
it from the standard and obstacle strategy.
Note:
If there is an intermediate diversion speed, all performance data must be established
and in corporate in both the Flight Manual and FCOM.

Criteria for Selecting the Diversion Strategy


The minimum criteria for selecting on ETOPS diversion strategy, in term of speed
schedule, are the route structure and the maximum diversion time allowed. The route
structure will indicate the obstacles to be cleared and the location of the selected
adequate airports which should be well distributed along the route.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 6



12. AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT AND
OM – A NAVIGATION REQUIREMENT
12.6 ETOPS

The maximum diversion time allowed will permit the definition on the minimum speed
schedule required to ensure a minimum overlap of the circles centered on each
adequate airport.

The diversion strategy should also be a compromise between speed and fuel
requirements; for example a diversion at VMO will give the widest area but with the
highest fuel requirement. In this case a reduction of the diversion speed, which reduces
the area operation and diversion fuel, may be a better option, provided the flight routing
is not modified.
Note:
The Pilot in Command has the authority to deviate from the pre-established diversion
strategy, based on his evaluation of the actual situation and fuel status.

12.6.5 ETOPS ALTERNATE AIRPORT


a. No person may dispatch or release an airplane for an ETOPS flight unless enough
ETOPS Alternate Airports are listed in the dispatch or flight release such that the
airplane remains within the authorized ETOPS maximum diversion time. In

Chapter 9.2.1 and OM-A 9.2.5.

Considering Time-Limited Systems in Planning ETOPS Alternates


For ETOPS up to and including 180 minutes, no person may list an airport as an
ETOPS Alternate Airport in a dispatch or flight release if the time needed to fly to that
airport (at the approved one-engine inoperative cruise speed under standard
conditions in still air) would exceed the approved time for the airplane's most limiting
ETOPS Significant System (including the airplane's most limiting fire suppression
system time for those cargo and baggage compartments required by regulation to have
fire-suppression systems) minus 15 minutes.

hours or in combination with low visibility procedures, any other conditions that may
delay landing of the aircraft).
Nevertheless the cost of carrying extra fuel and the risk of a diversion should be
considered carefully.
It should also be realized that off-loading cargo in order to take extra fuel is
extremely expensive.

h. Extra Holding Fuel


Fuel uplifted in addition to minimum block fuel, to compensate the requirements
from specific aerodromes. Usually extra holding fuel is needed to mitigate traffic
congestion in specific aerodromes. Information of how much extra holding fuel
needed can be found in NOTAM.

13.4 EN-ROUTE FUEL SUPPLY: INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT


a. No person may dispatch or release for flight a turbine-engine powered airplane with
more than two engines for a flight more than 90 minutes (with all engines operating
at cruise power) from an Adequate Airport unless the following fuel supply
requirements are met:
1) The airplane has enough fuel to meet the requirements of OM-A Chapter 13.3
2) The airplane has enough fuel to fly to the Adequate Airport—
(i) Assuming a rapid decompression at the most critical point;
(ii) Assuming a descent to a safe altitude in compliance with the oxygen supply
requirements of OM-A Chapter 20.4; and
(iii) Considering expected wind and other weather conditions.
3) The airplane has enough fuel to hold for 15 minutes at 1500 feet above field
elevation and conduct a normal approach and landing.
b. No person may dispatch or release for flight an ETOPS flight unless considering
wind and other weather conditions expected, it has the fuel otherwise required by
this part and enough fuel to satisfy each of the following requirements:
1) Fuel to fly to an ETOPS Alternate Airport.
Fuel to account for rapid decompression and engine failure. The airplane must
carry the greater of the following amounts of fuel:

2) Fuel to account for errors in wind forecasting. In calculating the amount of fuel
required by paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this section, the certificate holder must
increase the actual forecast wind speed by 5% (resulting in an increase in
headwind or a decrease in tailwind) to account for any potential errors in wind
forecasting. If a certificate holder is not using the actual forecast wind based on
a wind model accepted by the DGCA, the airplane must carry additional fuel
equal to 5% of the fuel required for paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this section, as reserve
fuel to allow for errors in wind data.
3) Fuel to account for icing. In calculating the amount of fuel required by
paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this section (after completing the wind calculation in
paragraph (b)(1)(ii) of this section), the certificate holder must ensure that the
airplane carries the greater of the following amounts of fuel in anticipation of
possible icing during the diversion:
(i) Fuel that would be burned as a result of airframe icing during 10 percent of
the time icing is forecast (including the fuel used by engine and wing anti-
ice during this period).

(ii) Fuel that would be used for engine anti-ice, and if appropriate wing anti-ice,
for the entire time during which icing is forecast.
4) Fuel to account for engine deterioration. In calculating the amount of fuel
required by paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this section (after completing the wind
calculation in paragraph (b)(1)(ii) of this section), the airplane also carries fuel
equal to 5% of the fuel specified above, to account for deterioration in cruise
fuel burn performance unless the certificate holder has a program to monitor
airplane in-service deterioration to cruise fuel burn performance.
5) Fuel to account for holding, approach, and landing. In addition to the fuel
required by paragraph (b)(1) of this section, the airplane must carry fuel
sufficient to hold at 1500 feet above field elevation for 15 minutes upon
reaching an ETOPS Alternate Airport and then conduct an instrument approach
and land.
6) Fuel to account for APU use. If an APU is a required power source, the
certificate holder must account for its fuel consumption during the appropriate
phases of flight.

C. Planned Re-Dispatch (PRD)


The ATC flight plan with RIF / PRD must always be filled to the intended
destination.
For Planned Re-Dispatch, 2 procedures must be applied:
 Pre-flight procedure and
 In-flight procedure
The in-flight procedure is only supplementary to the pre-flight procedure. (See
OM-A chapter 13.6-05)
In case of exceptional operational or commercial conditions, such as re-routing
due airspace closure, reduced takeoff weight, high yield payload, runway
closures, maximum tank capacity, etc. the possibility exists that a flight to an
intended destination cannot be planned according to the pre-flight fuel policy,
specified under OM-A chapter 13.5-01 A above.
Three options are possible now:
1. Reduction of pay load.
2. Technical intermediate landing for refueling (see OM-A chapter 13.5-01 A
above).

 At least 2 separate runways are available.
 Weather forecast is equal to or better than 500 feet / 2500 m, or the
prescribed minima, if higher.
 When alternate is used the prescribed planning minima are
applicable (see OM-A chapter 9.5.1)
b) To improve the chance of en-route re-dispatch, the intermediate
destination must be chosen as close to the intended destination and
track as flight planning allows.
The selection of an alternate close to the intermediate destination
makes a further increase of the ZFW possible.
c) A point of re-clearance (POR), along the track to the intended
destination must be specified.

b) Two Flight Plans


The station providing flight planning should make available all data
concerning:
 Normal flight plan to intermediate destination, and
 Flight plan from POR to intended destination (re-dispatch flight plan)
 These two flight plans have the same POR in common as waypoint.

c) Planned Re-Dispatch Decision


1) Planned Re-Dispatch if possible be carried out for the benefit of fuel
conservation, enhancing competition in term of better route
management (More flexible route network, passenger would prefer a
direct flight rather than frequent stop over at intermediate destination),
and where available for increasing payload. Provided that the expected
success rate of the re-dispatch in-flight has a high probability, otherwise
it will disadvantage due to proceeding to the intermediate destination
(additional cost for landing at intermediate destination).
2) The expected success rate of the En-route Re-Dispatch in relation with
the payload gain (taking into account the nature of payload) must be
weighed against the disadvantages of a delayed arrival at intended

13.5 PREFLIGHT POLICY

a. Economical extra fuel (Fuel Tankering)


Payload and operational conditions permitting, it is Garuda Indonesia’s policy
to tank extra fuel above the basic requirement, if this results in net cost savings.

For CAT C aircraft applies:


When the OAT during the ground stop at the next destination is expected to be
10 C or less and the difference between this OAT and the dew point is 2 C or
less, no economical tanking should be performed. This procedure is intended to
minimize the risk of rapid ice buildup on the wings due to the combination of
relative humid air and large amounts of cold fuel in the wing tanks, the so called
induced icing. In these cases the cost of de-icing can easily exceed the profit of
carrying economical fuel.

Note: List of Economical Tanking Stations is issued by Operations Support,


and available at Flight Dispatch (CGKOWGA).
b. Operational extra fuel (discretionary fuel)
Discretionary fuel is considered as operational extra fuel.

01. GENERAL
Fuel quantity aboard must be determined conservatively. The lowest of the
calculated fuel versus indicated fuel quantities must be taken.
The PIC shall manage fuel inflight. The air traffic delay information shall be
requested from ATC, to ensure that minimum fuel upon landing will be the greater
of the approved minimum quantity or final reserve fuel.
Original Dispatch or Flight Release, Re-dispatch or Amendment of Dispatch or
Flight Release:
a) No person may allow a flight to continue to an airport to which it has been
dispatched or released unless the weather conditions at an alternate airport
that was specified in the dispatch or flight release are forecast to be at or above
the alternate minimums specified in the operations specifications for that airport
at the time the aircraft would arrive at the alternate airport. However, the
dispatch or flight release may be amended en-route to include any alternate
airport that is within the fuel range of the aircraft as specified in OM-A Chapter
13.2
b) No person may allow a flight to continue beyond the ETOPS Entry Point

With regard to the expected quantity of fuel upon landing, a flight can operate in
three different phases.
During flight the PIC shall be continuously aware in which phase the flight is
operating.

Phase of Flight Estimate Fuel Upon Landing

NORMAL PHASE Final reserve fuel plus equal or more than Alternate Trip (or
2 hours holding fuel if operate in isolated airport)

ABNORMAL PHASE Final reserve fuel plus less than Alternate Trip (or 2 hours
holding fuel if operate in isolated airport)

EMERGENCY PHASE Less than final reserve fuel without Alternate

NORMAL PHASE OPERATION


As long as a flight is operating in the normal range no special conditions, apart from
regularly checking the weather forecasts at destination and alternate (s), are
required.

abnormal phase, the following should be regarded as general guidance and be
adapted as circumstances dictate.
Replacing of the original alternate by another available alternate demanding less
fuel, thus the flight may be back in the normal phase.
Ultimately a choice has to be made between:
 Continuation of the flight to, or holding over destination and
 Diversion to an alternate (which may be an ‘en-route’ alternate). In this case
the alternate becomes the destination.
Either choice may lead to a situation where no alternative is left.
The decision to continue the flight to original destination or holding over destination
whenever the estimated arrival fuel quantity at the original destination is less than
alternate + 30 minutes holding fuel can be made, as long as these conditions are
met:
- The ceiling at least 2000 feet above airport elevation;
- The visibility is not less than 5 kilometers; and

- Separate runways are usable at the estimated time of use of the destination
aerodrome with at least one runway having an operational instrument
approach procedure.
When, having committed to land at a specific airport, the PIC calculates that any
change to the existing clearance to that airport may result in landing with less than
planned final reserve fuel, PIC shall advice the ATC regarding the situation by
declaring “MINIMUM FUEL”
Note: The declaration of MINIMUM FUEL informs ATC that all planned aerodrome
options have been reduced to a specific aerodrome of intended landing and any
change to the existing clearance may result in landing with less than the planned
final reserved fuel. This is not an emergency situation but an indication that an
emergency situation is possible should any additional delay occur.

EMERGENCY PHASE OPERATION


The PIC shall immediately declare an emergency when the calculated usable fuel
predicted to be available upon landing at the nearest airport where a safe landing
can be made is less than the planned final reserve fuel. The “MAYDAY, MAYDAY,
MAYDAY - FUEL” call must be used to advise ATC regarding the situation.

02. Performance on Slippery, Wet or Contaminated Runway


The performance corrections on contaminated runway are usually provided for
3mm, 6mm, and 13mm contaminant (standing water/slush) or Slippery/Wet runway
(Good, Medium, Poor). For contaminant over 6mm and at or below 13 mm, apply
whichever is the lower figure of the allowed takeoff weight between the two data.
When runway conditions are reported for each third portion, average friction
coefficient or contaminant depth of the last two third runways should be applied for
takeoff/landing performance.
The takeoff performance data can be given based on Braking Action or based on
Runway Conditions. Refer to Aircraft Operating Manual for particular type of
aircraft.

03. Determining Runway Condition


General:
 Only the runway within 75 feet of either side of the runway centerline is used in
the determination of contamination type.
 If the PIC determined that contaminant covers a portion of the runway which
will not be needed for takeoff, including distance for rejected or an engine fail
during takeoff, that runway need not be considered contaminated.
 The PIC has final authority and discretion with respect to the determination of
contaminant type.

Taxi Consideration:
 Exercise extreme caution; Ramp and taxiways may be very slippery.
 Jet blast consideration; may result ground personnel injury and equipment
damage.
 Taxi speed shall be reduced to minimum, especially vacating the runway and
taxi lining up.
Landing Consideration:
 Firm touch down within the touch down zone, avoid floating.
 Ensure ground spoilers are fully extended at touch down.
 To achieve minimum landing distance, consider using maximum manual
braking and maximum thrust reverser.
 Never assume that the last 2,000 feet of the runway have the same braking
action as the touch down zone.
04. Slippery/Wet or Contaminated Runway Limitations

05. Braking Action Definition
 Normal: Maximum energy stops possible with little deterioration in certified
stopping distance. Includes maximum braking and use of speed brakes; does
not include reverse thrust.
 Good: More braking is available than will be used in an average airline type
deceleration. If maximum energy stop were attempted, some distance in
excess of certified stopping distance would be expected.
 Fair/Medium: Sufficient braking and cornering force is available for a well-flown
approach and landing using light braking. However, excess speed or long
touchdown would result in an extremely low safety factor depending on runway
length and crosswind component. Careful planning and good judgment are
required.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

OM – A 14. ALL WEATHER OPERATIONS
14.1 ADVERSE WEATHER/HAZARDOUS
ATOSPHERIC CONDITIONS

 Poor: Very careful planning, judgment and execution are absolutely essential.
Crosswind becomes a primary consideration. While a safe and successful
approach, landing and stop can be accomplished if all factors are favorable, it
is necessary that care be exercised in every facet of the operation.
 Unreliable/Nil: Operations not recommended. Extremely slippery with poor
directional control even while taxiing. This is the kind of report that could be
envisioned during a freezing rain condition if nothing were done to the runways
or taxiways.

14.1.2 TAIL- AND CROSSWIND RESTRICTIONS


01. Limitations
When planning a flight, the tail- and crosswind limitations as published in the
relevant FCOM/AOM’s shall be taken into account. Under marginal tail- or
crosswind conditions the local circumstances, such as length and width of the
runway, runway condition, surrounding obstacles, etc. should be duly taken into
account. Attention is drawn to the fact that the required runway length increases
rapidly with increasing tailwind.

C O PY
In applying crosswind limitation on takeoff and landing, the Pilot In Command shall

L 5 .0 1
use steady wind. For example: If surface wind is reported 20 knots gusting 25, the

degrees magnetic and can be used directly with the magnetic runway direction.

14.1.3 COLD WEATHER OPERATIONS / ICING CONDITIONS


14.1.3.1 GENERAL
Cold weather operations require special and very careful flight preparation. Icing
conditions shall occur when low temperature is accompanied by precipitation. It
should be known that icing of the airplane is one of the most dangerous flight
hazards
The rate at which icing formation to accumulate on an airplane inflight depends
mainly on temperature, quantity, and the size of super-cooled water-droplets
suspended in the atmosphere.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 6



OM – A 14. ALL WEATHER OPERATIONS
14.1 ADVERSE WEATHER/HAZARDOUS
ATOSPHERIC CONDITIONS

Water droplets are present in all type of clouds, even at temperature well below
freezing level. The convective cloud cumulus and cumulonimbus generally carry
greater amounts of super-cooled water than other types of clouds. These droplets
freeze instantly on airplane, forming a layer of clear ice.
The amount of super-cooled water in the atmosphere decrease rapidly with
temperature, where the worst icing may be expected in temperature between 0ºC
and -15ºC.
Attention is drawn to the possible magnitude of orographic effect on icing
conditions. Severe icing may exist on the very low temperature when a well-
developed warm front associated with air-mass crosses high ground.
The Pilot in Command has the final authority whether de-icing / anti-icing is
necessary. His request shall supersede the ground crew’s judgment.
Before takeoff, PIC shall take on to account:
 weather conditions,
 taxi times,
 hold over times, and
 other relevant factor.

C O PY
Whenever the PIC is doubtful about the airplane’s icing condition, visual inspection
of the wings shall be performed, and if require, return to the ramp.

 Free movement of flight control surfaces (as applicable);
 Presence of frost, snow or ice on critical surfaces;
 Aircraft structural integrity (damage).

14.1.3.2 POLICY
a. No person may dispatch or release an aircraft, continue to operate an aircraft
en-route, or land an aircraft when in the opinion of the pilot in command or flight
operations officer (domestic and flag air carriers only), icing conditions are
expected or met that might adversely affect the safety of the flight.
b. No person may takeoff an aircraft when frost, ice, or snow is adhering to the
wings, control surfaces, propellers, engine inlets, or other critical surfaces of
the aircraft or when the takeoff would not be in compliance with Paragraph (c)
of this section. Takeoffs with frost under the wing in the area of the fuel tanks
may be authorized by the DGCA.
c. Except as provided in Paragraph (d) of this section, no person may dispatch,
release, or takeoff an aircraft any time conditions are such that frost, ice, or

snow may reasonably be expected to adhere to the aircraft, unless the


certificate holder has an approved ground deicing/anti-icing program in its
operations specifications and unless the dispatch, release, and takeoff comply
with that program.
d. When the use of De-icing/Anti-Icing is likely to occur, see procedures in OM-A
Chapter 10.9. The hold over time table shall readily accessible to flight
crewmember.
The aircraft shall not commence takeoff unless the critical surfaces are clear of any
deposits which might adversely affect the performance and/or controllability of the
aircraft, and:
 In freezing rain and freezing drizzle unless adequate ice protection can be
provided by anti-ice fluid;
 During heavy fall of wet snow (temperature around 0ºC);
 If snow, ice or frost has gathered on the airplane, when the runway braking
action is reported “ poor “ (braking coefficient less than 0.25)

14.1.4 THUNDERSTORM

c. Lightning Strike
The light flash, accompanying a lightning strike may temporarily blind cockpit crew,
particularly at night. It may be prevented by turning cockpit light to full bright.
Lightning strike can damage airplane structure, and cause instruments,
compasses, antenna or radio become unreliable.
Special inspection including compass check shall be carried out upon landing
following a lightning strike. A lightning strike is an operational incident, and cockpit
crew shall make report and AML entry.
d. Static Discharge
When flying through clouds and precipitation, static electricity is formed on the
airplane, causing typical cracking on the radio. In darkness, small sparks may be
noticed within the windshield (St Elmo’s fire).

e. Hail
Hail, especially large hailstones may cause considerable damage to an airplane.
They usually found in continental and tropical areas during the warmer part of the
year, as may also present under the overhang of a thunderstorm.

14.1.5 TURBULENCE
Turbulence is defined as a disturbed irregular flow of air with embedded irregular whirls
or eddies and waves. An airplane in turbulent flow is subject to irregular and random
motions, while more or less maintaining its intended flight path.
PIC shall assess the meteorological condition in respect of turbulence expectations
during flight for better preparations in the cabin. Refer OM-A Chapter 16.5.5: use of
seat belt for passenger and Flight Attendant.
a. The intensity specifications for turbulence reporting are defined as follows:

b. Turbulence may be related to the following types: Convective, Orographic,
CAT and Wake Turbulence.
 Convective turbulence: Caused by thermal instability and is met in connection
with the development of any thunderstorm activities. It can cause extreme air
motion with vertical speed up to 6000 feet/min. Severe turbulence is
encountered mostly in connection with thunderstorm activity.
 Oro-graphic turbulence: Mountain waves at the lee side of a mountain may
cause severe turbulence called orographic turbulence. Typical signs are
lenticular, rotor clouds and clouds with “water-fall” appearance. The strongest
turbulence may be found in rotor clouds.
 Clear Air turbulence (CAT): large wind shears with rapid changes of wind
direction horizontally and/or vertically. This type of turbulence is particularly
significant since its presence cannot be detected before it is encountered.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 9



OM – A 14. ALL WEATHER OPERATIONS
14.1 ADVERSE WEATHER/HAZARDOUS
ATOSPHERIC CONDITIONS

High level turbulence (normally above 15.000 feet ASL) not associated with
cumuliform cloudiness, including thunderstorm should be reported as CAT
preceded by the appropriate intensity, or light or moderate chop.
Abrupt changes of wind direction in a sharp trough-line may cause considerable
turbulence, and a change of flight level shall normally alleviate the problem.
CAT may be expected on the upper side of a sloping tropopause. A severe
CAT can caused by large horizontal and vertical shears of wind speed in the
transition zone between cold and warm air masses as well as at the tropopause
associated with jet stream.
These areas of turbulence are normally shallow, narrow and extended patches,
which move with the wind.
PIREPs Relating to Turbulence
When encountering turbulence, pilots are urgently requested to report such
conditions to ATC as soon as practicable. The PIREPs should state:
 Aircraft location;
 Time of occurrence in UTC;
 Turbulence intensity;

 C O PY

Rovortices
The vortex generator begins on rotation when the nose wheel lifts off the
ground and ends, when the nose wheel touches down on landing. In condition
with very weak or calm winds, the remaining vortices from a landing airplane
may last up to 5 minutes or more (see FRG 9.3).
ICAO defines wake turbulence categories in relation with the airplane maximum
takeoff weight:
- HEAVY (H) : airplane with max. takeoff mass in excess of 136.000 Kg.
The B-757 type, although has MTOW less than 136 tons, is
creating vortices as strong as real heavy airplane.
Therefore, B-757 is considered as heavy airplane.
- MEDIUM (M) : airplane with maximum takeoff weight between 7.000 Kg
and 136.000 Kg.
- LIGHT (L) : airplane with maximum takeoff weight up to 7.000 Kg

If an airplane enters an ash cloud the flight crewmember can expect:
- Smoke, Dust or acrid odors similar to electric spark in the cockpit;
- In darkness, heavy static discharges (St. Elmo’s fire) around windshield or engine
inlets;
- Engine surge, overheat or even engine failure;
- Unreliable airspeed, Pressurization and / or electrical system degradation.

14.1.7 HOT WEATHER CONDITIONS


Airplane operations in (extremely) high temperature conditions presents problem of a
different nature than those associated with cold weather. High ground temperature has
important effects on passengers and crew comfort and generally decrease aircraft
performance.

 Ground Preparations
- Keep airplane interior as cool as possible; unnecessary door closed, all gasper
outlets open.
- Reduce heat generation in the cockpit; windshield air, foot vents and other air
outlet shall be left open.
Excess heat is affecting all electronic and computer equipment.
- When external cooling required, the supply shall be plugged in immediately
after engine shut down, and should not be removed until just prior to engine
start.
 Taxi Out
- Avoid excessive use and riding airplane brake. Allow the aircraft to accelerate,
then brake to a very slow taxi speed and release the brake completely.
- Care for residual brake energy indications.
 Takeoff
- High temperature, temperature inversion, combined with short runway or high
elevations inflict performance penalties which must be taken in to account.
Consider to use alternate takeoff procedures (No Packs Takeoff, improve climb
performance, etc.)
- Observe fuel temperature limitations.

14.1.8 TROPICAL CYCLONS


Tropical Cyclone (TC) known as hurricane or typhoons is associated with extremely
strong winds, severe turbulence, CBs and very heavy precipitations. Although most
violent phenomena generally occur well below normal cruising levels, the chance of a
forced descend due to decompression, for example, shall be accounted for.
The TC formations normally occur over the ocean when barometric pressure is low
(summer), moving toward and dissipate overland. The center of TC usually move as
low as 10-20 knots, but sudden changes in moving speed and directions might occur.

circumnavigating, flight crewmember shall pass well in front of the TC as the air behind
it tends to be more disturbed and turbulent.
Avoidance is the guiding principle during flight planning and flight executions:
 Basically avoid flying over TC;
 Never fly through TC at low level (decompression);
 Flight Planning:
 Route: The route shall be planned minimum 60 Nm away from TC boundary.
 Destinations: Dispatching rules and weather minima applies.
 Alternate:
 Alternate and route to the alternate which lies within 120 Nm from the TC
track shall not be selected.
 If the alternate is situated in the area where the TC has passed, airport
operations may be affected by possible damage. It is advisable to select
alternate well outside the affected area.

15.1 INTRODUCTION

15.1 INTRODUCTION
Crewmember incapacitation is defined as any condition which affects the health of
crewmember during the performance of duties associated with the duty assigned to
him/her which renders him/her incapable of performing assigned duties, either total
or partial incapacitation which does not allow the fulfillment of duties in normal way.
In-flight incapacitation is a valid safety hazard and has already caused many
accidents. Incapacities have occurred more frequently than other emergencies
which are the subject of extensive training (engine fail, cabin fire, etc.)

15.2 TYPES OF INCAPACITATION

15.2 TYPES OF INCAPACITATION


(a) Obvious incapacitation;
Means total functional failure and loss of capabilities. In general will be easily
detectable and of prolonged occurrence. Among possible causes are heart
disorders severe brain disorders, internal bleeding, food poisoning, etc.
(b) Subtle incapacitation;
Is a more significant operational hazard, because it is difficult to detect and the
effect can range from partial loss of function to complete unconsciousness.
Among the possible causes might be minor brain seizures, hypoglycemia (low
blood sugar), other various medical disorders, extreme fatigue or pre-
occupation with personal problems. Because a flight crewmember may not be
aware of, or capable of rationally evaluating his/her situation, this type of
incapacitation is the more dangerous.
(c) Causes and effects
Incapacitation may range from minor cases of physiological upsets associated
with inter-current mild disease or mental stress which may result in reduced
levels of judgment or physical coordination up to a complete collapse.

Things that can cause mild incapacitation:

C O PY 4 4 9
 Body pain such as toothache, headache, gastroenteritis, delayed effects of

alcohol, drug or medications, common disorder (i.e. cold).

15.3 RECOGNITION OF INCAPACITATION

15.3 RECOGNITION OF INCAPACITATION


Early recognition of incapacity is very important. A silent collapse shall hardly be
detected during normal cruise phase, as communications may sometimes decline to
minimum. This requires that all crewmembers monitor each other very closely.
“Closely” means observing other crewmember for any “abnormal” reaction, action
and/or behavior. One good method is to use the term “two communication rule”,
meaning that one crewmember’s comment must be answered by the other.
If for instance the pilot monitoring report the airplane is being to the left of track, it is
essential that the pilot flying not only correct this problem, but confirm verbally. If a
crewmember does not answer any question or checklist item in normal way, there is
reason to believe that there may be the beginning of a subtle incapacitation. At the
worst, he/she may simply have fallen asleep.
Other symptoms of the beginning of an incapacitation are:
 Incoherent speech;
 Strange behavior;
 Irregular breathing;
 Pale fixed facial expression;
 Jerky motions that are either delayed or to rapid.

C O PY
If any of these are present, incapacitation must be suspected and action taken to
4 4 9
check the state of a crewmember.

 Summon Flight Attendant(s) immediately for assistance;
 The objective is not to interfere with the pilot duties performance that might
endanger to safety of the flight.
 Take whatever steps are possible to ensure the incapacitated pilot cannot
interfere with the handling of the aircraft. This may include involving FA to
restrain the incapacitated pilot.(e.g. have the incapacitated pilot seat pulled
back, reclined, shoulder harness fastened and locked (OM-B2 Ch 10.10.1);
 If above action might interfere or endanger to the safety of the flight, have the
incapacitated crewmember removed from his seat. In any case his seat shall
be moved fully back to prevent obstruction of flight controls, switches, levers,
etc. Assistance of other crewmember might be required;
 If necessary, reset COMM and NAV to remaining pilot side.

 Second Step

18.2 MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST (MEL)


The Minimum Equipment List (MEL) is a manual consist of:
 Minimum Equipment List as required by CASR (MEL);
 An Operating Procedure, when MEL item calls for flight crew actions (OP);
 Maintenance Procedure, when MEL item calls for maintenance personnel actions
(M);
 Configuration Deviation List covering configuration deficiency externally (CDL);
MEL is guidance for dispatching the aircraft in such condition with inoperative
instrument or equipment within acceptable safety level is maintained by appropriate
design redundancies, procedures and limitations.
The MEL is compiled in assisting PIC and licensed Aircraft Maintenance on duty in
deciding whether to dispatch or not, an aircraft with an inoperative system, missing
item or part, for the aircraft to be dispatched within the allowable standard
airworthiness requirements.
The MEL shall not deviate from the Aircraft Flight Manual limitations, Emergency
Procedures, or Airworthiness Directives, and all equipment related to the airworthiness
and the operating regulations of the aircraft not listed in MEL must be operative. It does
not include components which are obviously required, so as component of minor
significant which are obviously not required.

20.4 REQUIREMENTS FOR CREW AND PASSENGER


(a) First aid oxygen
The quantity of oxygen required as first aid must be enough to provide 2% of
passengers and no less than 2 passengers with undiluted oxygen at a flow rate of
at least 3 liters per minute (Standard Temperature Pressure Dry) for the part of the
flight above 8000 feet following a depressurization.
This quantity of oxygen must be added to the required oxygen quantity for the case
of emergency descent.
The first-aid oxygen equipment shall be capable of generating a mass flow to each
user of a least 4 liters per minute. Means may be provided to decrease the flow to
not less than 2 liters per minute at any altitude.

(b) Supplemental oxygen for sustenance


To operate a pressurized aircraft above 10.000 feet, the quantity of supplemental
oxygen on board for sustenance must be established for the most critical point of
the flight from the standpoint of oxygen need in case of depressurization.
The cabin pressure altitude is considered the same as the aircraft altitude following
cabin depressurization.

C O PY
In case of depressurization, aircraft which operate up to 25.000 feet which is able

Incase loss of pressurization and the cabin altitude would be above 10.000 feet,
the aircraft will descend (emergency descend) to 10.000 feet or minimum safe
altitude whichever is higher.
If due to higher Minimum Safe Altitude / MORA and descending to below such
acceptable altitude is not possible, the special procedures have been laid down to
exit the situation in order to the aircraft can continue at the pressure altitude that
will allow continued safe flight and landing. (e.g: escape route over Teheran
Airspace, TIM-DJJ vv), Or PIC shall find alternative route with lower safe altitude
that will allow continued safe flight and landing.

21.2 DANGEROUS GOODS


21.2.1 GENERAL
Dangerous Goods are substances possessing potentially hazardous characteristics.
These characteristics will not necessarily make their transport by air become
hazardous, provided that the applicable regulatory precautions are complied with.
In order to carry Dangerous Goods by air transport safely, the Dangerous Good items
have to be correctly packed, marked, labeled, checked, accepted, handled and loaded
to the aircraft properly. For further details, see Garuda Indonesia Dangerous Goods
Handling Manual onboard the aircraft.
The latest edition of IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations for the practical working
document for the processing and handling of dangerous goods by air is available at all
Garuda Indonesia station and Cargo Offices.

21.2.2 POLICY

21.3.1 GENERAL
Live animals are temperature sensitive commodities. When accepting live animal for
transport the possibility to maintain required temperature should be observed in
relation to the aircraft compartments and loading position per route and the seasonal
climatic conditions at destinations and transit stations.
 Basic instructions on acceptance, handling and loading of live animals are
published in the IATA Live Animal Regulations (IATA LAR), comprising details
about:
 General conditions of transport
 Packing and marking
 Labeling and quantity restrictions per package, for maximum animal comfort
and safety during transport and for safety of the staff handling animal shipments
 Endangered species and their special requirements
 A list of endangered species of wild life animal, published by the UN Convention
on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES)
The presence of live animals must be brought to the attention of the cockpit crew by
means of the NOTOC to ensure ventilation and correct temperature selection.
The following general rules are to be observed when loading live animals:

 DAY OLD CHICKEN


For the transport of day old chicken, which is usually in large quantities, the
following conditions must be met:
 The total transportation time is critical; the chicken should reach the consignee
within 48 hours after having hatched.
 The optimum temperature range inside the boxes is approximately 28 C.
 Heat generation by the chicken creates a substantial increase in temperature,
which may result under unfavorable conditions, in high mortality rates.
Sufficient ventilation is very important. For that reason, weather and
temperature permitting, door should be left open during ground stop.
 In the cargo compartment, boxes may not be stowed more than 3 layers high
and at least 40 cm space shall be left between the boxes and the ceiling.
 No other live-stock shall be stowed in the same hold (tropical fish excluded).
Refer to Fresh Air Supply in this manual.

 BIRDS
Due to their activity, birds generate a large amount of heat. Lack of ventilation is
fatal.

21.5 STRONGLY SMELLING CARGO


This cargo includes products which produce an offensive smell when exposed to air.
Cargo of an offensive nature is cargo, which for any reason might cause offense,
annoyance or nuisance to passengers. To prevent this, certain restrictions are applied
in the case of passenger aircraft.
In general, such goods may not be carried on passenger planes, unless the packing
offers adequate protection against the emission of the smell.
The PIC should also report acceptance of cargo he judges not being smelly enough to
be offensive, but which he consider should not have been accepted for carriage on
passenger aircraft.
Obnoxious cargo such as wet hides, essential oil (garlic oil), live turtle/crab/fish, fresh
fish etc., the casing are to be considered as wet cargo with respect to packaging
requirements determined by the company.
The presence of such a load must be brought to the attention of the cockpit crew by
means of NOTOC.
There are no such restrictions in cargo planes.
Refusal by the PIC should be reported via trip reports.

The body must be contained in a hermetically sealed inner coffin of lead or zinc, packed
in a wooden outer container.
If the body is not embalmed, decomposition plus altitude may produce enough
pressure to burst any but well soldered joints.
Special note should be taken of the place of stowing of human remains (including
cremated remains) so that after arrival at the airport of destination, the ground staff can
immediately be informed of its location.
On the NOTOC the name of the deceased must be mentioned in the column “Proper

21.7 PERISHABLE CARGO


Perishable goods are those who’s condition or suitability for original purposes may
deteriorate if exposed to undue changes in temperature or humidity, or delay in
carriage.
Packaging is usually in very light cardboard boxes. Attention should be paid to avoiding
crushing the boxes, maintenance of the cool atmosphere and prompt transportation.
The main requirements for perishable cargo are:
 The shortest possible transportation time
 Protecting from critical climatic conditions; also to be taken into account for ramp
transport and position planning.
 Protection from extreme cold climatic conditions for passenger and crew in case of
full load of (deep) frozen cargo in the main deck cargo compartment. This part of
the cabin should be isolated from the passenger part and the cockpit by Styrofoam
sheets. The (deep) frozen goods are to be covered by double sheets of plastic. In
case major (deep) frozen load, the other cargo should be protected by use of the
same material.
The presence of perishable cargo must be shown on the NOTOC only when specific
temperatures in the cargo compartment are required.
In that case temperature requirements should be adhered to as much as possible.

In case of the mixed loading of dry ice/cryogenic liquids and animals/or hatching
eggs, the effect of the extreme low temperature of the dry ice towards then animals
should be avoided by separation, or the use of other loads to be stowed in between.
As the fumes of dry ice (carbon dioxide solid) are heavier than air, the animal
shipment should be stowed at a higher level than the dry ice, also considering the
climatic effect of the dry ice.
The separation requirement for EAT and AVI may be disregarded when either at
least one or both is/are packed hermetically.

21.14 TEMPERATURE SETTING REQUIREMENT


When temperature sensitive cargo is carried, the preselected temperature for the cargo
compartment must be in such a way that during flight the required temperature can be
maintained.
Normally, there are three standard settings:

 Live animals ( temperature 15 °C )


 Perishables ( temperature 10 °C )
examples : flowers, fruits, vegetables
 Cool/frozen commodities ( temperature 5°C )
example : meat, fish for consumption
If a temperature sensitive commodity requires another temperature settings than
mentioned above the required temperature will than be indicated on the NOTOC
When temperature sensitive commodities, which required different temperature
selections, are loaded together in the same Unit Loading Device (ULD) or compartment
the following order of priority is applicable:
1. Live animals
2. Perishables
3. Cool/frozen commodities.

22.1 GENERAL

22.1 GENERAL
01. INTRODUCTIONS
The security of international civil aviation requires that each State prepare plans
and procedures and make appropriate arrangements which together provide an
optimum level of security for normal operating conditions but are capable of rapid
expansion to meet any increased security threats.
The Garuda Security Program manual is produced to provide information
concerning overall security program of the company.
All, particularly operational related personnel must acquaint themselves about the
content of such manual and make sure that each and every one is having
responsibility to keep up sense of security in all aspects during their activity.
Under normal operating conditions, the security measures require cooperation
between States on one hand and between departments and agencies within a
State on the other. In conditions of increased security threats, particularly close
operation between States may be required.
An aircraft, which is being subjected to unlawful interference, shall endeavor to
notify the appropriate ATS units about the fact concerning significant
circumstances associated therewith and any deviation from the current flight plan

 Within this principle, the best ways and means to deal with a hijacker or a group
of hijackers is left to the discretion of the PIC.
 An ICAO resolution in the Extra-ordinary ICAO assembly 01 June,1970 in
Montreal, stated :
“When an aircraft which has been unlawfully seized is at rest at an airport, the
competent authorities of the Contracting State in which the airport is situated
should not take any action to terminate the unlawful seizure of the aircraft
without taking into account, particularly, any wises that the PIC may have been
able to express and, if feasible, those of appropriate officials of the State whose
airline is operating the aircraft, full weight having will give to all relevant
circumstances and to the views of the airline. The safety of the passengers and
crew should be overriding considerations of those involved in reaching any
decision”.

01. GENERAL
A. Function
The aim of this section is to provide specific guidelines for crewmember in
facing/handling crisis situations (hijack, sabotage, bomb threats and other
incidents that may endanger flight safety) during flight.
These guidelines cannot possibly cover all contingencies and cannot
completely guarantee safety so that there is still a need for the development of
crewmember initiative (and ability) to meet specific situations and conditions.
The effectiveness of these guidelines is depended on the crewmember’s full
understanding of its stipulations.

3. Written Bomb Threats Found in Flight


Bomb warnings discovered on board aircraft in flight are likely to be spurious.
When a bomb threat is discovered on board an aircraft in flight, the
responsibility of performing the assessment will lie with the Threat Assessment
Team. Whether a bomb threat is found or, especially a suspect package, it
should be left in place by the crew member who finds it. A very detailed
description should be given to the Pilot in Command. The Captain still remain
in the cockpit and shall then relay the information to the ground and the
assessor team will determine if the threat is serious.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

16 Jan 2017 Page 4



22. SECURITY
OM – A 22.3 UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE

The following information should be relayed by Pilot in Command to the ground


and to be considered by the assessor team:
a) Whether the threat originated before or after take-off and if the threat could
have been discovered during the pre-flight search;
b) Precise details. In the case of a written threat, if the threat is very detailed
and if an intention to avoid casualties is present it is more likely to be a
genuine threat. If no clear reasons are mentioned, it is less likely that the
threat is genuine. If a suspect package is found, the threat should be
considered genuine until proved otherwise;
c) Whether there is a person on board who might attract a threat e.g.: political
figure;
d) Whether there are passengers who might be responsible for a threat e.g.:
deportee or inadmissible, rowdy;
e) If the incident is unique or part of a series of similar threats made to the
same air carrier or same location;
f) If the Pilot in Command doubts the truths about the threat, he/she should
consult with the ground to get a clear picture of the threat level of the air
carrier, States of departure and arrival.

(3). Intensify alertness and vigilance on passengers, while maintaining a normal


and routine atmosphere in the cabin.
(4). Apply personal approach to hijacker in order to :
(i) Deter his intension;
(ii) Calm him down;
(iii) Release/ disembark passengers (children, sick-passengers, aging
persons, disable passenger and women).

a. Safety and security are primary objective
b. If at all possible, keep away the hijacker from the flight deck. Relay all
communications and request through the Flight Attendant or have the
hijacker use the interphone to talk to you.
c. As soon as possible prepare flight deck as follows:

 Home address
 Names of family or friends
 Situation assessment
e. Keep passengers in seats with seatbelt sign on to avoid interference.
f. Attempt to keep hijacker in his seat, communicate via flight attendant, or
intercom if communications with Captain demanded. Experience indicates
that use of a female Flight Attendant is preferable when using flight
attendant to communicate.
g. Provide pilot in cabin as an in-flight negotiator if intercom or Flight Attendant
communication is not acceptable.

h. People on the ground often have a larger picture and more experience.
Crewmember personnel should try to comply with instructions from the
ground, if possible. This will enable the Captain not to be seen as the
negotiator, particularly if unpopular decision is taken which could upset the
hijacker. This unpopular decision must be seen as coming from an outside
authority, not the crew. In-flight negotiations should concentrate on getting
the aircraft on the ground.
i. Have one crewmember talking to hijacker:
 Use the great slow down
 Calm him
 Become neutral friend
 Encourage hijacker to talk
 Overload with questions, problems he must decide
 Offer no technical advice
 Provide plenty of beverages to create a bathroom need
 Attempt to persuade hijacker to land and allow release of passengers
j. If entrance of hijacker to flight deck is unavoidable, attempt to have female
Flight Attendant accompany him:
 Continue the great slow down
 At night light up flight deck – to validate crew only – then dim lighting,

and baggage to allow more fuel weight for better performance. Take
whatever tactics as possible to get the passengers and crewmember off the
aircraft.
d. On the ground use fuel and mechanical problem to assist in the slowdown.
e. If passenger displacement is carried out, the crewmember should attempt
to escape by mingling with the crowd.
f. Update information to the ground personnel whenever possible.
g. On conclusion of a hijack incident request a company press officer and
avoid crewmember statement to the press. Do not advertise or glamorize
the situation. In 24 hours it will no longer be newsworthy. If at an off-line
station the Captain will attempt to ensure that meals and accommodation
of passengers and crewmember are attended to by whatever means are
available.

 To provide the quickest means available, the maximum medical aid to all persons
involved regardless of whether they have already fallen victims to an accident or
whether they are immediately threatened, and of secondary importance, to keep
minimum damage to properties.
 To prevent, where possible, the re-occurrence of similar accident and incident.
a. The First Purpose.
Requires extremely fast and smooth cooperation between involved authorities
(ATS, SAR, etc.) and the company (e.g. by providing the rescue coordination
centers list containing detailed information on the emergency and survival
equipment carried on board, or by providing other essential information relating to
the individual flight, e.g. relevant technical / maintenance details, information on
Dangerous goods on board, Operational Flight Plan (OFP) details, fuel endurance,

It is important that vigilance for the purpose of detecting potential collisions be
relaxed on board an airplane inflight, regardless of the type of flight or the
class of airspace in which the airplane is operating, and while operating on the
movement area of an aerodrome the flight crews shall maintain vigilance for
conflicting visual traffic ("see and avoid").
 An airplane shall not be operated in such proximity to other airplane as to create
a collision hazards.
(4) Right of Way
 The airplane that has right of the way shall maintain its heading and speed, but
nothing in these rules shall relieve the pilot in command from the responsibility
of taking such action as shall best avert collision.
 An airplane that is obliged by the following rules to keep out the way of another
shall avoid passing over, under or in front of other, unless it passes well clear
and takes into account the effect of wake turbulence.
 When two airplane approaching head-on or approximately so and there is a
danger of collision, each shall change its heading to the right.

 An overtaking airplane is an airplane that approaches another from the rear on
a line forming an angle of less than 70 degrees with the plane of symmetry. In
such position with reference to the other airplane that at night it should be
unable to see either of the airplane’s left or right navigation lights.
 An airplane that is being overtaking has the right of way and, whether climbing
or descending or in horizontal flight, shall keep out of the way of the other
airplane by altering its heading to the right and no subsequent change in the
relative position of the two airplane shall absolve the overtaking airplane from
this obligation until it is entirely passed and clear.
(6) Landing
An airplane inflight or operating on the ground shall give way to airplane landing or
in the final stages of an approach to land. When two or more airplane approaching
an aerodrome for the purpose of landing, airplane at the higher level shall give way
to the airplane at the lower level, but latter shall not take advantage of this rule to
cut in front of other which is in final stage of approach to land. An airplane which
declared to make an Emergency Landing has the Priority on Landing.

order to leave the areas by aviation traffic control officer(s). Any aircraft approaching
and having entered the prohibited and restricted areas will be warned and ordered to
leave the area concerned by the aviation traffic control officer(s).
In the case of non-compliance to the warning and order to leave as meant above,
enforcing action will be taken by the State aircraft to force the violator(s) to leave the
territory of the State or the prohibited and restricted areas, or to force the violator(s) to
land on stipulated airbase or airport within the State.
The crew, the aircraft and all loads of an aircraft violating of the provisions as meant
above will be examined and interrogated in accordance with valid laws and regulations
There are occasions when interceptor pilots are required to transmit instructions to
pilots of intercepted aircraft. When radio communications are not available, visual
signals are used.
Interception of civil aircraft will be undertaken only as a last resort.
If undertaken, an interception will be limited to determining the identity of the aircraft,
unless it is necessary to return the aircraft to its planned track, direct it beyond the
boundaries of national airspace, guide it away from a prohibited, restricted or danger

25.3 SAFETY RISK MANAGEMENT

25.3 SAFETY RISK MANAGEMENT


Safety risk management is a generic term that encompasses the assessment and
mitigation of the safety risk that threaten the capabilities of an organization, to a level
as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP). Safety Risk Management consists of
Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment & Mitigation.

25.3.1 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION


Hazards shall be identified in any operations of a Garuda Indonesia aircraft. Hazard
identification is responsibility of all personnel involving in operation of Garuda
Indonesia and reported to CQSEM department.
Hazards are processes and managed in accordance with the Local Standard
Operating Procedure (SOP) of units encompassing flight operations, operational
control and flight dispatch, engineering and maintenance, cabin operations, ground
operations, cargo operations, and operational security.
Hazard identification is a continuous, ongoing, daily activity. It becomes an integral part
of Garuda Indonesia activity in delivering service to the customer. Nevertheless, there
are three specific conditions which require more in-depth and far-reaching hazard
identification activities i.e.:

O PY
a. Any time Garuda Indonesia experiences an unexplained increase in safety-related
C 4 4 9
events or regulatory violation;
L ED 5 .0 1

predictive methods aimed at identifying hazards
Rothey
before
Data from reactive method are then analysed to identify hazards that present existing
risks to aircraft operations while data from proactive and predictive methods are
analysed to identify hazard that present future risk to aircraft operations.
Some sources are internal to the organization while other sources are external to the
organization. No method entirely replaces others, nor does it make other sources or
methods redundant or unnecessary. Hazard identification should use combination of
internal and external sources, reactive, proactive and predictive method.

01. REACTIVE METHODS


Reactive methods require a serious safety event (incident or accident) in order to
launch hazard identification process. It is most appropriate for situations involving
failures in technology and/or unusual events. Some of reactive methods of hazard
identification are:
a. Accident and incident investigations typically result in a report that describes
the factors including existing hazard that contributed to the event.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 1



OM – A 25. SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
25.3 SAFETY RISK MANAGEMENT

b. Flight Data Monitoring


Flight Data Monitoring is considered as reactive method of hazard identification
when it is related to flight involved in incident / serious incident.

c. E-Report / Air Safety Report


E-Report and/or Air Safety Report (ASR) form containing information related to
accident or incident is categorized as reactive method of hazard identification.
Electronic report (e-report) is a web based report that enables all employee to
easily access and report safety hazards, deficiencies, concerns, and even
mandatory reporting event via internet across geographical boundaries.
E-report enables employee to report whether at office or even home by simply
log in to Garuda Safety Website (http://safety.garuda-indonesia.com) using
corporate email account.
E-report is created by selecting available safety occurrence report templates in
the website (Cabin Safety e-Report, Dangerous Goods e-Report, Fatigue e-
Report, Flight Safety e-Report, Ground Safety e-Report Hazard e-Report, HSE
e-Report, Maintenance Safety e-Report, Security e-Report and Voyage e-
Report), completing the required fields, and submit it. E-report provides
“Request Confidentiality” box for confidential reporting system.

damaging consequences in order to launch hazard identification process. By this
method, system failures can be minimized by identifying safety risks within the
system before it fails and taking the necessary actions to mitigate such safety risks.
Some of proactive methods of hazard identification are:
a. E-Report / Operational Hazard Report
E-Report and/or Operational Hazard Report (OHR) is voluntary report provided
for reporting any hazard directly or indirectly impose to safety. Operational
Hazard Report Form (OHR) is provided to report safety events, hazards,
deficiencies and concerns which do not fall into incident, serious incident or
accident. Content of OHR form consists of checkbox item to guide the reporter
and essay box to write detail description. Reporter information box is also
provided and it is not required to be filled in for confidential reporting system.
b. Safety Audit / Inspection / Survey
Safety and Security Audit is committed by President & CEO and Board of
Management of Garuda Indonesia. One of its objectives is to identify hazard,
undesirable condition and area requiring improvement.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 2



OM – A 25. SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
25.3 SAFETY RISK MANAGEMENT

Inspections/surveys examine particular elements or procedures of a specific


operation, such as problem areas or bottlenecks in daily operations,
perceptions and opinions of operational personnel and areas of dissent or
confusion.
c. Safety Meeting / Discussion
Meeting or discussion either within Garuda Indonesia or involves external party
is another method to proactively identify hazard. This meeting may also be
intended to identify changes within or outside Garuda Indonesia that have
potential effects for the safety of aircraft operations.

03. PREDICTIVE METHODS


Predictive methods do not require triggering event to launch hazard identification
process. It is based upon the notion that safety management is best accomplished
by trying to find trouble, not just waiting for it to show up. Therefore, predictive
methods aggressively seek safety hazard that may be indicative of emerging safety
risk from a variety of sources. Some of predictive methods are Line Operations
Assessment System, Flight Data Monitoring, and Change Management.
Garuda Indonesia management commits to implement a non punitive for both
operational safety reporting system and confidential reporting system in all areas

3. Corporate mail (for the occurrence report from out station, if necessary)
4. Sending via Chief Pilot/Chief Flight Attendant
5. Directly come to CQSEM department office during office hour at GOC building
2nd floor.

A. OPERATIONAL SAFETY REPORTING SYSTEM


Operational Safety Reporting System is implemented throughout Garuda
Indonesia encompassing flight operations, operational control and flight
dispatch, engineering and maintenance, cabin operations, ground operations,
cargo operations, and operational security.
It encourages and facilitates all employees at all levels of the organization to
submit reports that identify safety events, hazards, deficiencies and concerns

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 3



OM – A 25. SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
25.3 SAFETY RISK MANAGEMENT

including those resulting from or associated with human performance in


operations to be brought to the attention of relevant management.
Therefore, it can be considered as communication process from bottom to top
of organization. Operational Safety Reporting System also facilitates
mandatory reporting in accordance with applicable regulations.
Each report will be reviewed and analyzed to determine whether a real safety
issue exists, and if so, ensure development and implementation of appropriate
action by responsible management to correct the situation. Individual who
submits the report will be provided with feedback letter regarding follow up
progress of the report.

B. CONFIDENTIAL REPORTING SYSTEM


Garuda Indonesia facilitates a confidential reporting system, a system for the
disclosure of human errors and incident without fear of retribution or
embarrassment, and enable others to learn from previous mistakes.
Garuda Indonesia encourages all employee for reporting events, hazards
and/or concerns resulting from or associated with human performance or
human error in operations and incident report.
Garuda Indonesia ensures at all times keeping the identity of the reporter

l y 20
R ASSESMENT AND MITIGATION
Once hazards have been identified, the safety risks of their potential
consequences that have been determined as threatening the capabilities of
Garuda Indonesia must be assessed. Factors to be considered are the
likelihood and consequence of the occurrence.
Safety risk likelihood is defined as the likelihood that an unsafe event or
condition might occur. Safety risk consequence is defined as the possible
consequence of an unsafe event or condition, taking as reference the worst
foreseeable situation. Consequences of a hazard should be assessed from
several aspects such as effect to people, on time departure, asset, environment
and company reputation.
After safety risks have been assessed, elimination and/or mitigation to ALARP
must take place. Detail process of risk assessment and mitigation is provided
in Local Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) of units encompassing flight
operations, operational control and flight dispatch, engineering and
maintenance, cabin operations, ground operations, cargo operations, and
operational security.

25.4 SAFETY ASSURANCE


Safety Assurance is a daily activity that is conducted to ensure that the operations that
support the delivery of services are properly protected against hazard.
25.4.1 SAFETY PERFORMANCE MONITORING AND MEASUREMENT
Safety performance of the organization is verified in comparison with the safety policy
and approved safety objectives. Safety Performance Monitoring and Measurement is
implemented throughout the organization as means to monitor the safety performance
of the organization and to validate the effectiveness of risks controls. Methods of safety
performance monitoring and measurement are including but not limited to Safety
Performance Indicators set for all areas, safety studies, safety surveys, and Quality
Assurance Program.
1. Safety Performance Indicator
Safety Performance Indicators (SPIs) are objectives data correspond to the
relevant safety goals defined by Corporate Safety Committee (CSC) during CSC
meeting. The SPIs are performance measures to enable company to track and
compare its operational performance against target over a period of time.
SPIs for examples are number of hazard reports received, number of corporate
incidents per 1000 departure, number of tolerable incident at each operational
area, and number of tolerable incident at each operational area per 1000
departure.

26.1 INTRODUCTION

26.1 INTRODUCTION
Chapter 26 has been compiled to give a general picture of actions to be taken in cases
of emergency.
Duties and responsibilities of each crew during emergency evacuations are described
in FCOM/AOM and OM-B2.
The Pilot in Command may not continue flight to destination if the flight cannot be
completed safely, unless in his opinion there is no safer procedure.
It is considered desirable to give an overall picture of all kinds of emergency situations
and the actions which should, circumstances permitting, be taken to cope with these
matters.
The circumstances may vary to such an extent, that a general knowledge of these
problems is essential so that each individual emergency case can be treated to the
circumstances pertaining.
It is of prime importance, that all crew members have a thorough knowledge of all
actions that must immediately be taken when an emergency situation arises.
It is therefore necessary to frequently re-read and study all material describing the
emergency actions.

C O PY
As emergency situations requiring immediate action may develop at any time, crew

officers or station personnel must therefore use their best judgment in handling those
aspects of emergencies, not foreseen in these procedures.
If in doubt, as to the extent of an emergency, operations officers or station personnel
responsible for handling the emergency shall endeavor to obtain information from the
PIC or alternately inquire whether the PIC wants an emergency to be declared.
Information concerning an emergency shall only be given to Garuda Indonesia officials
and agencies, directly concerned with such emergency.
Pilot in Command or Garuda station personnel shall send a written report of any
deviation those jeopardizing the safety to the DGCA or relevant Authority via Corporate

26.3.2 ELECTRICAL FAILURE


01. INDICATIONS OF ELECTRICAL FAILURE
The indications of an electrical failure usually consist of smoke, smell of fire,
smoldering insulation material or fire.
The VOLT and AMMETERS also give indications of malfunctioning of electrical
equipment.
02. ACTION TO BE TAKEN IN CASE OF ELECTRICAL FAILURE
The following action should be taken in case of electrical failure:
 Generators and battery switches shall immediately be switched off and
emergency power switched on.
 If the failure is accompanied by smoke or fire, the oxygen system and
oxygen masks shall be ready to be used anytime.
 The first officer must immediately put on the oxygen mask, then the other
flight crewmembers shall put on the oxygen masks if smoke or fire
conditions makes the use of oxygen masks mandatory.
 When the electrical power is “off”, the circuit breakers must be checked to
see if they show where the short circuit has occurred.
 All the circuit breakers must be pulled and thereafter the generator switches
be switched on again one by one.

 If BCF / HALON are used, oxygen masks must be used by all active
crewmembers.
 Never use water to extinguish electrical fires

26.3.3 FIRE AND SMOKE


01. CAUSES OF FIRE AND SMOKE
Fire and smoke can be caused by short circuits in the electrical system, by
overheating of electric motors, by open fire and in the cargo.
Therefore, fires can be expected in almost any part of the aircraft.
The most probable cause of electrical fire is the radio equipment.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 2



OM – A 26. EMERGENCY
26.3 AIRCRAFT EMERGENCIES

02. ACTION TO BE TAKEN IN CASE OF FIRE


The following actions have to be taken in case of fire:
 Small fires in the cockpit or in the cabin caused by e.g. cigarettes or matches
can generally be extinguished with the water fire extinguisher (if available) or
with a blanket.
Never use water to extinguish a fire of or near an electrical system.
 Larger fires must be extinguished with the BCF / HALON fire extinguishers in
combination with a blanket, if possible.
 The pressurization and air-conditioning systems cause a continuous fresh
supply of oxygen, the cabin must therefore be depressurized in case of a large
fire.
This may make an emergency descent necessary and also the use of oxygen
for the crewmembers.
 In case of large fire, the oxygen system shall be ready to use as not only the
thin air at high altitudes makes the use of oxygen necessary, but also the smoke
or vapor from the fire and the fact that the BCF / HALON used for the
extinguishing of the fire is toxic.
 Most holds and compartments where a fire may break out have been fitted with
a fire detection and extinguishing system.
 It is important to remember that cargo compartments must keep closed when
on fire. This is due to:

Smoke and fire in the fuselage may be generated by fire, fuel, the hydraulic system
or the superchargers.
The following actions must be taken:
 The “NO SMOKING” sign must be switched on and the occupants of the aircraft
shall stop smoking immediately.
 The flight crewmembers must use oxygen masks and aircraft must be
depressurized.
 After depressurization, smoke and fumes removal procedures according to the
FCOM/AOM/QRH must be carried out.
Note: If necessary an emergency descent must be carried out. It should be
remembered, that the smoke removal procedure is very effective, but also causes
a large supply of fresh air.

26.3.4 PRESSURIZATION FAILURE


01. PARTIAL LOSS
If depressurization occurred at high altitude e.g. caused by failure of the
pressurization system, follow the procedures in FCOM/AOM/QRH. When
pressurization cannot be restored, a descent to a lower altitude and temporary use
of oxygen masks may require.
PIC shall notify to Flight Attendants and Passengers regarding the situations. Refer
to OM-A Chapter 26.3.4-03.
Doors/exits can also cause depressurization. Doors/exits that open inward may not
cause problem, however, doors/exits opening outward constitute a danger if not
fully closed and locked.
If there is any doors/exits that appeared not fully closed:
 Stay away from that doors/exits;
 If necessary relocate passengers sitting in the vicinity.
 Do not try to close the gap – do not inspect the cause.

The PIC shall notify FA and Passengers via PA regarding the situations:
 When cabin altitude increasing to 10000 feet or more :
 “AIRCRAFT DECOMPRESSION, FLIGHT ATTENDANT STAND BY”
 Pressurization under control:
 “ PRESSURIZATION UNDER CONTROL , RESUME NORMAL”
 Emergency Descent:

26.3.5 UNLOCKED LANDING GEAR


In case a landing must be made with no definite indication as to whether the gear is
locked, the following precautions shall be observed:
 The PIC must decide to what extent the emergency procedures shall be executed.
 When it is feared that one or more wheels are not fully down, the tower may be
requested to give permission to make a low fly pass for a visual check by the tower
controllers.
 It is not recommended to make a touch and go landing to check whether the wheels
are down and locked.

26.3.6 LANDING GEAR FIRE


Overheating of the brake units may be caused by severe use of brakes. However,
lightly dragging brakes during a lengthy taxi operation can cause an overheating just
as serious.
When a warning of a smoking brake is received after landing or while taxiing, it is not
always possible to determine if a fire is present. To prevent an outbreak of flames and
also extinguish small fires, it has to be remembered that proper air cooling procedures
will probably avoid serious trouble and damage to the aircraft.
Maneuver the aircraft off the runway in use and stop aircraft primarily with reverse
power, using brakes as little as possible.
Passenger may be disembarked by using exits on the side opposite to the fire. CO2,
water or foam shall never be used as a fire extinguisher as it causes as a sudden
cooling of the wheel assembly which is likely to be followed by a violent explosion of
the wheel and tire. It is assumed that the explosion is caused by a sudden failure of

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 5



OM – A 26. EMERGENCY
26.3 AIRCRAFT EMERGENCIES

the cast magnesium wheel under stress of the inflated tire. The sudden cooling
develops high local stresses. These stresses superimposed on the normal wheel loads
result in a sudden almost explosive rupture.
Excess heat conducted from brake to the wheel heats the tire. The air pressure in the
tire will increase because of the heat. This increase alone is not enough to cause a
sound tire to fail.
However, the heat also causes the tire to deteriorate and this in connection with the
increase of tire pressure can cause a blow-out even after a rather long time (up to 20
minutes).
When combating a gear fire, remember:
 Tire and wheel may explode,
 The hazard of flying metal is greatest in-line with the axle,
 Do not approach nearer than necessary; approach in front or behind the wheel;
never from the side,
 Use dry powder chemical extinguishers to avoid the possibility of triggering a
wheel explosion,
 Try to attain a position up-wind of the fire. This will increase the range of
extinguisher and decrease the smoke nuisance.

26.4 EMERGENCY LANDING


26.4.1 GENERAL
Emergency landing can be divided into:
 Anticipated landings, and
 Landings that take place without prior warning (usually crashes), or normal
landings that develop into an emergency e.g. due to failing landing gear.
The procedures to be followed have been standardized as much as possible for all
types of aircraft. It is of prime importance that each crewmember has a thorough
knowledge of his/her own duties as well as of the duties of other crewmembers to be
able to take over each task’s and, moreover, because a well instructed team working
in close cooperation, will be able to obtain far better results.
Furthermore, a smooth operating team, like a well-oiled gear, in the face of an
emergency, instills confidence and consequently will not evoke panic easily on the part
of the passengers.
For psychological reasons the PIC or First Officer should give the first information
about an impending emergency landing to the passengers. If this is not possible, the
flight crewmember must inform the passengers regarding the emergency situation.
This should be done in a concise and discrete manner in order to avoid confusion and
panic.

A crash landing causes great deceleration forces, therefore all loose objects and also
objects that could become detached must be put in such places that they cannot harm
passengers and crew, e.g. toilets and/or coat rooms provide such places.
Emergency exits must be prepared for being opened in the shortest possible time by
removing the plastic covers, curtains etc.
It is essential that order be maintained in the cabin under all circumstances.
 One hysterical person can demoralize the whole group. Such a person must be
calmed down quietly if possible, but forcibly if necessary.
 A self-composed attitude of the crew greatly assists in securing the passengers to
obey orders and preparing the passengers and cabin for the landing.

26.4.3 COMMUNICATIONS
01. COMMUNICATIONS WITH AIR TRAFFIC SERVICES AND/OR OTHER
AIRCRAFT
It is important to remember, that the first transmission of distress call shall be on
the designated air-ground frequency in use at the time.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 1



OM – A 26. EMERGENCY
26.4 EMERGENCY LANDING

The distress call shall be preceded by the word “MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY”
and shall consist of as many as possible of the following elements spoken distinctly
and, if possible, in the following order:
1) Name of the station addressed (time and circumstances permitting);
2) The identification of the aircraft;
3) The nature of the distress condition;
4) Intention of the Pilot in Command;
5) Present position, level (i.e. flight level, altitude, etc., as appropriate) and
heading.
In addition squawk Code 7700, indicating an emergency, shall be selected on the
ATC transponder unless otherwise directed or advised by ATC.
Note 1: The foregoing provisions may be supplemented by the following measures:
The distress message of an aircraft in distress being made on the
emergency frequency 121.5 MHz or another aeronautical mobile
frequency, if considered necessary or desirable. Not all aeronautical
stations maintain a continuous guard on the emergency frequency;
Note 2: The station addressed will normally be that station communicating with the
aircraft or in whose area of responsibility the aircraft is operating.

RCOMMUNICATION BETWEEN CREWMEMBERS
Means of communication:
- Public Address System (PAS)
- Call (interphone) system
- Assigning of certain crew members for keeping verbal contact.

 PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM


Except for first warnings and instructions explicitly meant for the crew the public
address system may be very valuable as it provides direct, although only one-
way communication. Especially when there is a little time for preparations, time
consuming interruptions of the crewmembers carrying out their duties can be
avoided by using the public address system.
PAS is primary means (Normal Method) to be used for certain communication
between cockpits to cabin. See OM-B2 Chapter 2.3
For instance: “FA-1 REPORT TO COCKPIT”; the commands “EMERGENCY
STATIONS” and “BRACE FOR IMPACT”.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 2



OM – A 26. EMERGENCY
26.4 EMERGENCY LANDING

 CALL (INTERPHONE) SYSTEM (Alternate Method)


If PAS is unserviceable use attendant call by a series of at least 6 chimes at
short intervals as alternate method to call FA. The FA-1 shall proceed to the
cockpit immediately.
While preparing for an emergency landing the call system can be used, if
followed either by personal contact or contact by interphone, whichever is the
quickest way, for instructions especially meant for the crewmembers.

26.4.4 EMERGENCY LANDING ON LAND


01. CHOICE OF LANDING AREA
If possible, the emergency landing should be carried out on an airport on the
runway.
At some airports a foam path cab be laid on the runway. A belly landing can be
carried out on any flat piece of ground and if possible, a spot should be selected
within easy reach of help.
If the PIC has the choice of a landing on rough terrain or on calm water near the
coast, the latter possibility is preferable, provided sufficient life-saving equipment
is on board.

in a standard manner, be it that the power settings are of course different.
Full flaps should be selected when the landing is assured.
The landing speed should be as low as possible but adequate to avoid inadvertent
heavy touch down.
Just before touch down the PIC must brief the first officer to carry out necessary
actions, to keep the highest level of safety performance, timely after the command.
Every passenger must remain seated until the aircraft has come to a full stop.
Immediately after the aircraft has come to rest the command “EVACUATE-
EVACUATE” shall be given.
Note:
 Deceleration after touch down will be severe.
 On flat terrain the aircraft will need a considerable distance to come to rest.

03. EVACUATION OF THE AIRCRAFT


When the command “EVACUATE-EVACUATE” has been given by the Pilot in
Command or, in the case of unexpected landings, by FA-1, or when the aircraft
has come to rest, all occupants shall leave the aircraft as quickly as possible and
in an orderly manner.
Crewmembers present in the cabin shall direct the evacuation procedure.
In general, all the available exits shall be used as well as the assisting means e.g.
Ropes, evacuation chutes etc.
All occupants must leave the direct vicinity of the aircraft and be collected some
distance away from it. No one shall be allowed to re-enter the aircraft until
sometime it has become quite clear, that there is no danger of fire or explosion.
Wounded and disable occupants shall be assisted by the unhurt, but this must not
delay the evacuation process.
The PIC is the last to leave the aircraft after having checked that everyone has
escaped.
Do not allow smoking or the use of matches and lighters.

They can assist in:
 Providing position of other ships,
 Supplying weather reports including QNH,
 Indicating the swell direction and thus ditching heading,
 Providing radio and radar direction-finding and fixing,
 Laying a flare path at night,
 Launching smoke floats to indicate wind direction,
 Endeavoring to smoothen the sea by steaming in circles or laying foam,
 Offering immediate post-ditching assistance (e.g. rescue boats, medical
assistance, etc.).

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 4



OM – A 26. EMERGENCY
26.4 EMERGENCY LANDING

02. EXECUTION OF THE DITCHING


a) LANDING DIRECTION
The approach and landing heading should be so adjusted that the aircraft
tracks parallel to the swell. Which of the 2 (two) suitable directions (180° apart)
is chosen, will depend upon secondary factors, such as wind directions,
position of the sun, secondary swell etc. Using this technique cross-wind up to
50 knots id considered acceptable.
Note: Estimating swell direction may be made difficult by sensory illusion.
When flying parallel to the swell looking out to the left forward indicates
swell from that direction. While on the right hand side a swell from right
forward direction can be observed. However, in between these 2 (two)
directions, there does not seem to be swell at all. This is the direction
parallel to the swell. This direction should be put on the heading selector
of the compass.
Wind of more than 50 knots, wave motion becomes difficult to assess (at such
wind speeds swell will have disappeared) and the possibility of a lower touch
down speed assumes more important. In these conditions the landing heading
has to be adjusted towards the winds, remembering that up to 50 knots cross-
wind component may be accepted. Using this technique, a track can be

PY
maintained so that the number of waves per time unit crossing it can be lower

than when tracking directly into wind, so improving the landing path.

b) LANDING TECHNIQUE
Never land with the wheels down and never land from a full stall.
Either of the 2 (two) landing techniques (described below) may be employed
but technique “B” is recommended in all circumstances, except when landing
in daylight in very good weather and sea conditions, and when a well
pronounced swell system exists.
Technique “A”
This is a method with which land-plane pilots will feel familiar. The approach is
made quite normally, followed by a low flight over the surface with full flaps
extended, to find a relatively smooth place to land the aircraft. This technique
has only one advantage over technique “B”, namely the best spot in the vicinity
can be picked for the ditching.
Technique “B”
Select full flaps and adjust power so that the aircraft descends at 100 feet per
minute at a speed 10 to 15 knots above the stall. Start this descent not to low
and stabilize in this condition. When approaching the surface adjust the

heading to parallel the apparent swell motion and continue this stabilized
descent until the tail touches the water, then immediately power off.

03. EVACUATION OF THE AIRCRAFT


Experience indicate that after ditching, an aircraft may be expected to remain afloat
long enough to allow an orderly evacuation.
Chances of survival, especially during winter, are considerably reduced if one
boards a dinghy after first jumping to the water. Every attempt should be made to
keep dry and dinghies should be boarded directly from the aircraft. Passengers
must be told, before the ditching, from which exits they will be expected to leave
the aircraft, which dinghy they should board, and the crew member who will be in
charge in their dinghy.
The importance of not inflating the life-vest before evacuation should be stressed
and the sitting attitude to be adopted just before impact should be demonstrated.
Finally know your emergency procedures; apply them and exercise self-discipline.
Above all keep morale high; your chances of survival are excellent.

 After completion of the emergency landing, the first important point is the
evacuation of the aircraft. The time it takes to evacuate all occupants of an aircraft
should not be underestimated.
- Evacuation through doors can take place 2 to 6 times faster than through
emergency windows.
- Particularly when a fire breaks out after the landing, a speedy evacuation is of
prime importance.
- Although a ditched aircraft may float for hours, practice has shown that one
cannot count upon a floating time of low wing aircraft of over 3 minutes.
 After an emergency landing on terrain all occupants shall leave the vicinity of the
aircraft.
 In arctic conditions, immediate thought must then be given to the problems

26.5.2 SURVIVAL IN DESERT AREAS


01. HAZARDS
Lack of water and exposure to sun and heat are the big hazards to health in the
desert.
Up to 10% of dehydration causes no permanent ill effects. Dehydration is quickly
cured by water.
Exposure to the sun is the second desert ailment, therefore look for shade.
Stay under cover as much as possible. Use sunburn ointment on any part of the
body that is not covered with clothing. The heat may cause heat collapse, heat
stroke, heat exhaustion or heat cramps.
The intense sun glare makes it necessary to wear sun glasses or to protect your
eyes.

With the canopy in place, the temperature inside will rise appreciably.
In warm oceans the canopy protects the occupants of the raft against sun exposure.
The sides should be opened for ventilation.

26.5.4 SURVIVAL IN ARCTIC REGIONS


The following may serve as a guide for those who have to wait rescue after a forced
landing in arctic conditions.
The first thing to do is to leave the aircraft as soon as possible, evacuate first the
emergency equipment, then the occupants and move some 100 meters upwind from
the aircraft.
The next problem comes from the cold. The passengers must be collected in the
inflated dinghies on which the canopy is erected.
 Injured persons should be treated inside the dinghy as soon as the dinghies have
been inflated.
 The aircraft shall not be re-entered before it is absolutely certain, that no more fire
hazard exists.
 All efforts must be directed at conserving heat.
 People not dressed in polar suits should not expose themselves unnecessarily to

R ose
The total quantity of polar emergency rations is based on :
- maximum number of passengers plus 9 crewmembers
- survival time of 6 days at minimum ration
The normal ration amounts to 2 packs (2.000 calories) per crew member and 1 pack
(1.000 calories) per passenger per day in the winter, and per 1,5 day in the summer.
The minimum ration amounts to 50% of the normal ration.
The PIC must decide on the distribution of the rations, taking into account factors such
as:
 total number of passengers
 expected time before search and rescue parties may be expected to arrive
 weather conditions
 possibility of dropping rations by rescue aircraft
 etc.
It is advisable not to distribute any rations during the first 24 hours after the emergency
landing if the considerations mentioned above have indicated that severe rationing is
necessary.
Except the dangers arising from the low temperature, snow blindness, shock, carbon
monoxide poisoning are other problems to be faced.

The risk for frostbite is naturally higher when the body surface comes into contact with
media with higher conductive capacity. Therefore, clothes and shoes should be kept
dry, as wet clothes conduct the heat 25 times better than dry clothes.

26.5.5 SURVIVAL IN JUNGLE REGIONS


Use the mnemonic device of "STOP", which stands for "Stop, Think, Observe, and
Plan".
Here is a list of what to do in jungle survival:
1. Find a source of drinking water.
2. Find or build a shelter before nightfall.
3. Fashion a weapon you can use for self-defense.
4. Wait to see if rescue arrives.
5. Find a source of food.
6. Travel in one direction during daylight hours.

1. Finding Water
In contrast to the dry climate of the desert, the jungle is an abundant source of

PY
water. In many jungles, rainfall is common and can be used as a source of
hydration.

R- oStreams:
Look for streams of running water. You will want to boil any water that you
collect from streams in order to kill any bacteria. If you don't have a pot to boil
water, then consider using a tin/aluminum can.
- Bamboo Stalks:
The bamboo collects water during rainfall. Bend the bamboo to allow the water
to flow out into a container.

2. Finding Food
Since the jungle is such an abundant resource of plants and animals, the resources
for finding food are everywhere. It's just a matter of how to get access to it. Here
are some tips for getting food in the jungle.
- Hunting/Trapping Animals:
Don't waste your energy and time hunting animals. Conserve your energy for
other survival tasks instead.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 4



OM – A 26. EMERGENCY
26.5 SURVIVAL

The best way to trap animals while you are sleeping.


Using a deadfall trap is an effective way to trap animals and you can set up
many of them to increase your chances of catching more food.
- Fishing:
Another source of protein in the jungle is fish. An effective way to catch them
is through the use of a pronged fishing spear.
- Eating Plants:
Among the edible plants in the jungle, the safest to stick to are palms, bamboo,
and common fruits.
If you are unsure about whether a plant is poisonous or not, it's probably better
to not eat it.

3. Build a Shelter
In any jungle survival scenario, the shelter plays an important role in protection
against the elements. It will be one of the top priorities on your list of survival
actions.
Creating a "Lean-To" shelter:
O PY
Step 1: Find a large branch and lean one end up onto a tree.

A walking stick to use for parting any vegetation that gets in your way is a good
tool to have. The walking stick can also help you get out of sticky situations, such
as quicksand.
Walk In One General Direction:
Focus on a reference point in the distance to aim for and another reference point
behind you to walk away from. This will help you from walking in circles.
As you make your way through the jungle, look for trails left by animals. If they are
heading in the same direction that you are going, then follow them. They may lead
to water sources or open areas of the jungle that will help you increase your
chances of being seen by rescue parties.

5. Predators
Depending on the jungle location, there are many predatory animals, so stay alert.
Move through the jungle smoothly and avoid making a lot of noise. Your best option
of self-defense is to find a strong stick and carve the tip into a spear.
- While traveling, be cautious to the presence of snakes.

- Mosquitos & Dangerous Insects:


Mosquitos in the jungle are known for spreading disease. Some of which are
Malaria, Dengue, and Yellow Fever.
If you do not have repellent:
- Wear long sleeve shirts and pants.
- Rub mud on any exposed skin to avoid bites.
- Tie a shirt over your head and let it cascade down over your shoulders.
- Check your clothing and shoes before putting them on for spiders and other
insects.
Parasites:
There are many dangerous parasites in the jungle. Do not cross rivers more than
knee deep unless absolutely necessary.
6. Getting Rescued
It's difficult to rely on rescue when you are in the jungle due to the natural canopy
of trees covering the ground surface below.
Regularly visit crash site to see if rescue arrives.

into as possible.
Some of the methods of signaling are described below. If local circumstances make
other signals more effective, do not fail to use them. All available signaling devices
shall be put to readiness immediately after landing.
01. RADIO
Try to get a fix and transmit your position using the aircraft’s radio equipment if the
radio is still serviceable. However, do not waste the battery on long transmissions.
Use the emergency radio. For better radar detection erect the corner reflector, if
available.
Use the transmitter at 15 past or before the hour when all radio stations should
listen on the emergency frequency for emergency calls for 3 minutes (radio silence
for ships).
02. SMOKE
Fire and smoke make good signals. Have fires ready to light when search aircraft
are heard or sighted. Keep some fire lighted at all time. Use smoke by day, bright
flame by night. Engine oil, rags soaked into oil, pieces of rubber or insulation
material produce white smoke.

03. FLARES
When flares are available, keep them ready for use. Keep flares dry.
04. MIRRORS
Mirrors and bright pieces of metal make good signals that can be seen for many
miles.
05. GROUND SIGNALS
Ground signals have been internationally agreed upon and may serve as a means
of contact between the ground and rescue aircraft when no radio contact is
available. As far as possible, the following instructions shall be adhered to:
 Form symbol by any available means.
Some of the methods usually available are: using strips of fabric, parachute
material, pieces of wood, stone or such like material, marking the surface by
tramping or staining with oil etc.
 Make symbols not less than 3 meters in size.
 Take care to lay out symbols exactly as depicted to avoid confusion with other
symbols.
 Provide as much color contrast as possible between material and the
background.
 Make every effort to attract attention by other means such as radio, flares,
smoke or reflected light.

AIR/GROUND SIGNALS
When it is necessary for an aircraft to convey information to survivors or to ground
search parties, and two-way radio communication is not available, it shall, if
practicable convey the information by dropping a message or by dropping
communication equipment that would enable direct contact to be established.
When a ground signal has been displayed and is understood, the aircraft shall

latitude with meridians spaced at intervals of 10 degrees of longitude.
For flights operating in areas outside those latitudes the tracks must be defined by
significant points formed by the intersection of parallels of latitude with meridians normally
spaced at 20 degrees of longitude. The distance between significant points must, as far
as possible, not exceed one hour’s flight time.
Additional significant points must be established as deemed necessary. For flights
operating predominantly in a north-south direction, define tracks by reference to significant
points formed by the intersection of whole degrees of longitude with specified parallels of
latitude which are spaced at 5 degrees. Insert DCT between successive points unless both
points are defined by geographical coordinates or by bearing and distance.

APPENDIX 6. SCENARIO OF MINIMUM FUEL AND MAYDAY

Annex 6, Part I and PANS-ATM (Procedures for Air Navigation Services – Air Traffic
Management Doc. 4444) are aligned in their guidance to ensure that all participants in the
international aviation community share a common understanding regarding the definition and
intent of the terms “MINIMUM FUEL” and “MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY FUEL.” The following
scenarios illustrate how and when to use each term and are also provided as a means to
clearly differentiate between such declarations.

It is important to note that a common element in every scenario is that each time MINIMUM
FUEL is declared, the PIC has already committed to land at a specific aerodrome and is
concerned that a landing may occur with less than final reserve fuel in the tanks. It is equally
important to note that although the coordinated escalation process (with ATC) related to the
protection of final reserve typically occurs in 3 steps. Each situation is different, however, and
may be resolved at any stage in the process. The 3 steps in the escalation process are:

SCENARIO 1. MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY FUEL – An aeroplane is on an IFR Flight
Plan with a destination alternate aerodrome on file.
Narrative
An aeroplane arrives in the Terminal Area and is instructed to hold south of its destination
(KXYZ). The Meterological conditions are deteriorating rapidly in the vicinity of the destination
aerodrome with a front moving in faster than expected. The flight plan fuel uplifted for the flight
allotted 60 minutes of fuel for holding upon arrival to compensate for unanticipated
Meterological conditions and traffic congestion delays. The flight plan also allotted fuel for the
filed alternate (KABC) located 250 miles north of the destination.
Upon initial contact with ATC, the flight is told to hold for 45 minutes. In the holding pattern,
the flight crew completes their normal in flight duties to include re‐checking the destination
Meterological conditions, considering a possible diversion at a pre‐determined time as well as
determining the point in time and fuel remaining required to depart the holding pattern for the
destination aerodrome.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 1


OM – A APPENDIX 6. SCENARIO OF
MINIMUM FUEL AND MAYDAY

After 40 minutes of holding, ATC directs the flight crew to proceed to a holding fix closer to the
destination and clears them to descend to a lower altitude. The EFC issued for the new holding
fix adds 20 minutes of flight time which will burn the remaining contingency fuel. The flight
crew recalculates the expected landing fuel at destination based on the new EFC and is
concerned that they will begin burning into required reserves.
The flight crew conveys their current fuel status to ATC and requests additional delay
information (in accordance with 4.3.7.2.1). ATC then advises that they will be cleared to the
destination (original aerodrome of intended landing) at or before the previously issued EFC
time. 5 minutes prior to the EFC time, the aeroplane is issued a clearance to the initial
approach fix (IAF) and is informed that no further delays should occur.
Shortly after issuing the clearance to the IAF, ATC informs the flight crew that low level
windshear warnings were reported by several preceding aeroplane on final approach to KXYZ.
The flight crew elects to continue but unfortunately, the Meterological conditions at the
destination aerodrome continues to deteriorate, with prevailing winds and visibility that limit
arrivals to one runway. The flight crew flies an approach to the only available runway and
executes a missed approach due to a windshear alert on short final.
Aware that all contingency fuel has been consumed, the flight crew asks and receives a
clearance to their alternate (KABC). The PIC simultaneously declares MINIMUM FUEL (in
accordance with 4.3.7.2.2) based on fuel remaining calculations, their commitment to the
alternate aerodrome and the possibility that any delays incurred en‐route to their alternate

Explanation
In this scenario, when the flight first held in the vicinity of the original destination (KXYZ), the
PIC could still divert to the alternate aerodrome while maintaining the appropriate fuel reserves
including final reserve fuel. As such and at that point in the flight, a MINIMUM FUEL declaration
would be inappropriate as the flight had yet to commit to an aerodrome and there was sufficient
fuel on board to protect final reserve fuel upon landing at either the destination or alternate.
The second holding clearance, however, threatened to consume all of the flight’s fuelallocated
for holding thereby reducing the options to a landing at the destination if additional delays were
unlikely or a pre‐emptive diversion to the alternate. The potential to burn into the fuel required
to divert to the alternate triggered the query regarding additional delays.
When the flight missed the approach at the planned destination and elected to commit to
thealternate, the PIC declared MINIMUM FUEL as final reserve fuel could no longer be
protected if any additional delays were encountered. Unfortunately, while en route to the
alternate (KABC), additional delays were encountered requiring the PIC to declare an
emergency. By broadcasting MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY FUEL, the PIC utilized his/her
emergency authority to proceed to and land at a military field (KJKL) that would have been
otherwise unavailable.

OM – A APPENDIX 6. SCENARIO OF
MINIMUM FUEL AND MAYDAY

Outcome
In this scenario, when the aeroplane executed the missed approach at KXYZ and proceeded
to the alternate aerodrome KABC, the flight was still operating as planned. That is to say, the
flight plan fuel accounted for the possibility of missing an approach at the destination and
proceeding to the alternate. Due to the subsequent delays at KXYZ and a decision to divert to
KABC, however, it became apparent that little if any additional delay could be accepted, thus
triggering the declaration of MINIMUM FUEL.
Up to this point the flight could still be considered “routine,” until the flight crew was informed
that the runway at KABC was temporarily closed. This warranted the MAYDAY MAYDAY
MAYDAY FUEL declaration as all apparently available options would have, in the judgment of
the PIC, resulted in landing with less than the planned final reserve fuel. Declaring an
emergency, however, provided the PIC with additional options. In this case KJKL, a normally
unavailable military field, became a viable option for the aeroplane to able to land while
protecting as much fuel remaining as possible.

fuel state and informs ATC
a clearance to his alternate aerodrome (MMXZ). The PIC receives a
new clearance and proceeds to MMXZ which now becomes the committed aerodrome of
intended landing as he has consumed most of his contingency fuel and is concerned that he
may begin burning into required reserves.
Meterological conditions encountered en‐route requires a reroute to the alternate which in turn
requires more fuel. When the aeroplane is clear of the Meterological conditions and is
proceeding to the alternate aerodrome the PIC calculates that, barring any further delays, the
flight will be landing with fuel slightly above the planned final reserve fuel quantity. He also
notes that any changes to the current clearance to the alternate would likely result in a landing
with less than final reserve fuel in the tanks.
The PIC informs ATC of the situation by declaring MINIMUM FUEL (in accordance with
4.3.7.2.2). The controller acknowledges the MINIMUM FUEL call and informs the flight crew
that no further delays are expected. The aeroplane proceeds to and lands at the alternate
aerodrome as previously cleared and the PIC fulfills his responsibility to protect final reserve
fuel.

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 4


OM – A APPENDIX 6. SCENARIO OF
MINIMUM FUEL AND MAYDAY

Explanation
In this scenario the aeroplane was subject to delays that consumed most of the planned
contingency fuel and later diverted to the alternate aerodrome (MMXZ). In addition to a small
amount of contingency fuel and the planned final reserve fuel, the flight had uplifted the fuel
to proceed to an alternate. A MINIMUM FUEL state did not exist while proceeding to the
original destination aerodrome (MMAB) as the option to diverting to the alternate without
sacrificing planned reserves was still a viable option.
When the aeroplane, however, encountered WX en‐route requiring a reroute to MMXZ, the
remaining contingency fuel was used. Based on the fuel used and once the aeroplane was
back on course to MMXZ, the PIC determined that any further delays en‐route to the alternate
aerodrome to which the flight was committed to land would result in landing with less than
Final Reserve Fuel.
The MINIMUM FUEL call was used appropriately in this case as it described the fuel state of
the aeroplane to the controller clearly, succinctly and in accordance with Annex 6, Part I,
4.3.7.2.2). In other words, the declaration informed the controller that additional delays could
not be accepted and the controller responded by informing the flight crew that no delays were
expected. The controller also provided additional relevant information, kept the flight informed
of any additional delays and passed along any relevant information when transferring the
aeroplane to other ATC units. Both ATC and the flight crew maintained a heightened state of
fuel situational awareness and the aeroplane proceeded to the aerodrome as cleared and
landed uneventfully.

Outcome
Practically speaking, the events described in this scenario are not out of the ordinary. The
MINIMUM FUEL declaration was simply used by the PIC to make ATC aware that
circumstances had reached a point where any further change to the current clearance could
have resulted in an emergency due to fuel. However, the flight concluded at the alternate
aerodrome (MMXZ), having met all fuel requirements including the protection of final reserve
fuel.

As a result of these duties, the flight crew decides to proceed to the alternate aerodrome,
YSXZ, where they expect to arrive with 100 min or more of fuel. The flight crew requests delay
information from ATC (in accordance with 4.3.7.2.1) and informs the controller that while not
yet ready to declare Minimum Fuel, they are committed to a landing at YSXZ. ATC responds
that delays in the YSXZ terminal area are likely given the number of diversions from YSAB
and clears ICAO123 to a fix 50 NM from YSXZ with holding instructions and a 25 min EFC
time.
As more and more aeroplanes divert to YSXZ and 25 minutes pass in the hold, ATC directs
the flight crew of ICAO 123 to proceed to another holding fix closer to YSXZ, clears them to a
lower altitude and issues a revised EFC that adds 40 minutes of flight time. ICAO123
acknowledges the new clearance and informs ATC that if they do not proceed to YSXZ at or
before the revised EFC time they will be declaring MINIMUM FUEL (in accordance with
4.3.7.2.2). ATC acknowledges the transmission.
Shortly before the revised EFC time, the flight crew declares MINIMUM FUEL (at this point
the aeroplane is estimating to land with 35 min of fuel and in the judgment of the PIC any
additional delays may result in a landing at YSXZ with less than final reserve fuel in the tanks).

Operation Manual Part A – 1st Edition

01 Oct 2016 Page 6


OM – A APPENDIX 6. SCENARIO OF
MINIMUM FUEL AND MAYDAY

What the flight crew did not know is that prior to the MINIMUM FUEL declaration by the PIC,
ATC had already intended to clear ICAO123 for the approach. The controller asks whether an
approach clearance at the conclusion of the present circuit in the holding pattern would be
acceptable to the flight crew. The flight crew accepts the controller’s offer and ATC issues an
approach clearance. The flight lands with more than the final reserve fuel in the tanks.

Explanation
The events described in this scenario had the potential to rapidly deteriorate into an
emergency. The flight crew and ATC were able to resolve the issue in an orderly and
uneventful manner, however, based on a common understanding of the fuel state of the
aeroplane. When ATC informed the flight crew that YSAB was closed and they decided to
proceed to their alternate aerodrome (YSXZ), the initial calculation indicated that they would
arrive with the final reserve fuel (30 min.) plus 70 minutes (100 min. total fuel). Although the
aeroplane was committed to land at YSXZ, as there were no other apparent options, the flight
still had some operational flexibility (70 minutes fuel) and was not presently in a “MINIMUM
FUEL” state in accordance with with Annex 6, Part I, 4.3.7.2.2 .
When ICAO123 was cleared closer to YSXZ and was given an additional holding clearance,
the flight crew proactively informed ATC that the EFC time issued was very close to the point
where no further delay could be accepted. Finally, with the second EFC time approaching and
the flight without an approach clearance, a MINIMUM FUEL state was declared. ATC

Outcome
This scenario while not necessarily routine benefited from a common understanding of the
term “MINIMUM FUEL” that allowed the flight crew and ATC to appropriately manage the
situation. In this case, the closure of YSAB actually posed a bigger problem for ATC as several
aeroplanes were now diverting to YSXZ. The flight crew proactively kept ATC informed of their
fuel state and ATC shared their intentions with the flight crew (conclude the present hold before
proceeding with the approach clearance). The radiotelephony between the flight crew and
ATC was concise and focused on solutions rather than further describing the problem in
O PY
keeping with the use of the term MINIMUM FUEL as intended in the Provisions.

terminal area of its planned
R contingency
aerodrome (KCOS), and final reserve fuel intact. After holding for some time and burning most
of the planned contingency fuel, the crew is advised by ATC of an indefinite delay at the
destination aerodrome due to unexpected runway closures. Specifically, ATC advises that the
primary runway is closed due to a disabled aeroplane and braking action reported as nil on all
other runways. In effect, there is no revised EFC time and KDEN is closed to operations until
further notice.
The PIC elects to divert to the planned alternate aerodrome, KCOS. Although the planned
contingency fuel was mostly consumed, the planned alternate fuel remains intact and is
enough fuel to fly to KCOS. Due to severe Meterological conditions throughout the region,
there are no other alternate aerodromes available that would allow the flight crew to conserve
fuel. Despite operating in accordance with flight planning assumptions, the PIC declares
MINIMUM FUEL (in accordance with 4.3.7.2.2) at this point as the flight is committed to landing
at the alternate, KCOS, and any further delays from this point in the flight may result in a
landing with less than final reserve fuel in the tanks.
This has not yet developed into an emergency as the flight still has a bit of contingency fuel,
the planned alternate fuel to proceed to KCOS plus final reserve fuel remaining. The flight
crew, however, is concerned that based on the remaining contingency fuel, very little delay
can be accepted. The crew gains additional endurance time en‐route to KCOS due to better

than expected flight conditions, favorable winds and direct routing. They pass this information
along to ATC for coordination purposes and the flight lands uneventfully in KCOS with more
than final reserve fuel remaining in the tanks.
Explanation
This scenario is very straight forward and clearly illustrates the appropriate use of the
MINIMUM FUEL declaration. In this case, the intent of MINIMUM FUEL is simply to aid the
PIC in his/her responsibility to protect final reserve fuel once the flight is committed to a landing
at a specific aerodrome. It is apparent that, due to the severity of the Meterological conditions
in this example, the crew’s alternatives were quite limited. It is important to note, however, that
the PIC would be required to declare MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY FUEL had additional
delays been encountered en‐route to the alternate and final reserve fuel could no longer be
protected. It is equally important to note that had a closer alternate been available, the
MINIMUM FUEL declaration would have likely been unnecessary.
In this case, however, the flight was able to successfully divert to its alternate (KCOS) and
land without incident. The news that KDEN was closed with no EFC or expected EFC was the
primary factor in the PIC’s decision to commit to a landing at KCOS, the planned alternate
(and in this scenario, the only available alternate). The PIC’s commitment to land at KCOS,
an inability to accept much if any delay and the responsibility to protect final reserve fuel are
the conditions that justify the MINIMUM FUEL declaration.

principles in understanding the use of this term is first; the commitment to an aerodrome with
no other alternatives available and second; protecting final reserve fuel by ensuring to the
extent practicable, that no additional delays will be encountered .
It is important to note that the PIC always maintains his/her ability to exercise emergency
authority at any time. An emergency declaration would include priority handling and afford the
PIC the ability to land at the nearest aerodrome available should the conditions warrant such
action. The MINIMUM FUEL declaration, however, affords the PIC and ATC the opportunity
to work together to protect final reserve fuel and perhaps preclude an emergency from
developing.
