7 19 Nov 09 EGKB AD 2.20 LOCAL TRAFFIC REGULATIONS AD 2-EGKB May Airport Regulations a. Not available to aircraft unable to communicate by radio with ATC. b. Aerobatic manoeuvres and low flypasts are prohibited at this airport unless participating in an organised flying display. c. Microlight flying is prohibited at the airport. d. Prior to use of this aerodrome, the terms and conditions are to be obtained from the aerodrome operator. 2. Ground Movement a. Caution reduced wing tip clearance between taxiing and parked aircraft on Main Apron. Marshalling guidance provided. 3. CAT II/III Operations Not applicable 4. Warnings a. The only signals are light signals. b. Windshear and turbulence may be experienced on short final for Runway 03 when the wind is from the northwest. c. Pilots of departing aircraft are warned of the presence of other aircraft joining the visual circuit from the Deadside. The joining aircraft will fly across the upwind of the runway in use at altitude 1599 ft (1000 ft aal) at 90 to the runway heading before turning left/right onto the downwind leg. Pilots of high performance fast climbing aircraft should be particularly alert. 5. Helicopter Operations a. In order to avoid noise sensitive areas surrounding the aerodrome, helicopters must conform to normal fixed-wing joining, departure and circuit procedures unless otherwise instructed by ATC. b. Pilots of helicopters should take particular note of a noise sensitive area on the northern aerodrome boundary prohibiting close right-base approaches for Runway 21 or direct departures to the north from Runway Use of Runways a. The width at both ends of Runway 03/21, is twice that delineated by the associated edge lights due to extra pavement at one side. Since runway centre-line lighting is not installed, pilots should ensure that they are correctly lined up, especially if take-off is at night or when the runway is contaminated or in low visibility. b. Except where a public transport operator has a lower State authorised take-off minima, the Aerodrome Authority cannot approve departures in RVR conditions of less than 400 m. 7. Training a. Use of the aerodrome for training is subject to the following: i. The aerodrome is not available for circuit and instrument approach training by non-biggin Hill based aircraft of less than 3,000 kg MTWA. ii. The number of aircraft in the visual circuit will be determined by ATC, subject to the prevailing weather conditions and other commercial or corporate traffic. iii. The aerodrome is not available for helicopter circuit training. iv. A booking system exists for instrument training. The filing of a flight plan does not constitute a booking. An embargo on instrument training exists between 0700 and 0900, and 1630 and 1900 daily (one hour earlier during the summer period) due to ATC workload. v. Booking procedures for all circuit training flights may be introduced by ATC during busy periods. AMDT 005/10
