BOX 273 BOROKO, NCD 111 NATIONAL CAPITAL DISTRICT PAPUA NEW GUINEA AIP SUPPLEMENT 5/2018 12 OCT ASIA-PACIFIC ECONOMIC COOPERATION (APEC) NOVEMBER 02 20 2018 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Independent State of Papua New Guinea (PNG) is hosting the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meetings throughout 2018. Leaders Week, scheduled for 12-18 November in Port Moresby will see a number of APEC leaders visiting PNG in the lead up to and during this period. 1.2 The main meeting events will occur in Port Moresby, however other areas within the National Capital District (NCD) could experience an aviation impact. 1.3 The Department of the Prime Minister, NCD Commission, APEC Organising Committee, PNG Defence Force and PNG Air Services Limited (PNGASL) have established measures to ensure that an appropriate level of airspace security exists to support the event. The airspace arrangements and procedures contained within this AIP SUPP are part of comprehensive security arrangements implemented by the PNG Government. 1.4 This AIP SUPP provides details of temporary changes to procedures and operational information to be applied. 1.5 All airspace users planning to conduct operations within 90NM of Jacksons Airport, Port Moresby (AYPY) during the period 02 to 20 November 2018 inclusive, will be required to comply with the procedures detailed in this AIP SUPP. 1.6 APEC 2018 will result in increased PNG Defence Force activity within the Port Moresby area. 1.7 This AIP SUPP details airspace management arrangements, including the establishment of an Air Defence Identification Zone (ADIZ), Temporary Restricted Areas (TRA) and Airspace Reservations (AIR-RES). It also details changes to procedures, restrictions and appropriate contacts to ensure the security and safety of aircraft, the public and visiting dignitaries. 1.8 TRA930, TRA931, ADIZ Port Moresby and AIR-RES areas are described in the following sections of this AIP SUPP. It is expected that these areas may be activated during the period 02 to 20 November 2018 inclusive, as advised by NOTAM. 1.9 The following operations within the TRA s may be restricted by the controlling authority to remain clear of meeting venues: training flights; banner towing; moored, manned and unmanned balloons; model rockets; model aircraft; remotely piloted aircraft systems. 1
1.10 Airspace procedures have been designed to be as permissive to civil aircraft operations as the security situation allows. Access to TRA s is managed by the controlling authority during the NOTAMed activation periods. 1.11 Police may be present in the Port Moresby area to monitor compliance with this AIP SUPP. Noncompliance with regulations and airspace procedures may result in penalties being applied. 1.12 Military aircraft will operate in airspace clear of civilian traffic under normal air traffic rules except where a security situation warrants intervention. In such circumstances military aircraft will operate with Due Regard to other traffic and will accept responsibility for collision avoidance. 1.13 Any aircraft unable to comply with requirements in this AIP SUPP will not be permitted to operate within the TRAs. Any aircraft which does not comply with the requirements of the ADIZ may be subject to intercept by a military aircraft and/or criminal prosecution. 1.14 For the purposes of this AIP SUPP, APEC2018 Security Aircraft are those aircraft approved as such by the Joint Security Task Force (JSTF). 2. TEMPORARY RESTRICTED AREA 930 2.1 TRA930 has been established for safety and security purposes in the vicinity of APEC House.
