In some cases, delegated air traffic services are provided in airspace belonging to the Amsterdam, Langen and Paris FIR and the France UIR. Details of such services are provided in section ENR 2.2. 2.1.2 ANA ANA is responsible for the provision of air traffic services within the territory of Luxembourg up to the upper limits of Luxembourg TMA One A and Luxembourg TMA One B. In some cases, delegated air traffic services are provided in airspace of Belgium and in airspace belonging to the Langen, Reims and Paris FIR. Details of such services are provided in section ENR 2.2. 2.1.3 Eurocontrol 2.2 Military Eurocontrol Maastricht UAC is responsible for the provision of air traffic services within the Brussels UIR above FL245. Belgian Defence is responsible for the provision of air traffic services to OAT within the Brussels FIR/UIR. In some cases, delegated air traffic services are provided in airspace belonging to the Amsterdam FIR, Paris FIR and France UIR. Details of such services are provided in section ENR 2.2. 3 TYPES OF SERVICES 3.1 Civil The following types of services are provided: Flight Information Service (FIS) and Alerting Service (ALRS); Area Control (ACC); Approach Control (APP). The following types of services are provided at aerodromes: Aerodrome Control (TWR); Aerodrome Flight Information Service (AFIS); Automatic Terminal Information Service (ATIS); Alerting Service (ALRS); ATS Reporting Office (ARO). At certain aerodromes basic information may be provided, consisting of advice and information useful for the safe and efficient conduct of flights while not subject to an air traffic service. Basic information shall not be considered to be equivalent to FIS. It may include: MET conditions; changes in the serviceability of facilities; AD conditions; general airspace activity; any other information likely to affect safety. 3.2 Military When providing a radar service, controllers will, immediately after having identified the aircraft, notify pilots of the service they are provided with. Depending on the traffic situation, controllers may change the type of service. They will notify pilots AIM
AIP Belgium and Luxembourg GEN 3.3-3 of this. Pilots are to note that they are not in receipt of a radar service, until they are formally identified and notified of the type of service. The following types of services are provided: 3.2.1 Radar Control (RC) Radar control is an air traffic control radar service in which pilots are given mandatory instructions to enable the prescribed separation minima from other traffic to be maintained. These instructions will generally be associated with information on the conflicting traffic. No changes of heading or level are to be made without prior approval of the controller. The provision of RC will normally be restricted to flights within controlled airspace. 3.2.2 TRA Service (TRAS) TRA Service is an air traffic control radar service in which pilots are given mandatory instructions in order to: Keep participating traffic (VFR and IFR) inside the published limits of its assigned reserved area; Enable the prescribed separation minima from other traffic to be maintained. IFR traffic will be separated from VFR traffic and vice versa using the radar separation minima. VFR traffic will be given traffic info towards other VFR traffic and traffic avoidance on request. Responsibility for separation between participating aircraft inside the TRA lies with the pilots. 'Participating aircraft' are those flights for which a specific area has been booked for simultaneous use. 3.2.3 Radar Information Service (RIS) Radar Information Service is an air traffic radar service provided to VFR flights, which assists pilots in their navigation. In class C airspace, the VFR traffic will be informed of bearing, distance and, if available, level of any conflicting VFR traffic or obstacle known to the controller. Traffic avoidance advice will be provided on request. The pilot is responsible for maintaining the prescribed separation. The controller has the authority to change the RIS into radar control to enable the prescribed separation minima to be maintained (VFR to IFR). In Class G airspace, the VFR traffic will be informed of bearing, distance and, if available, level of any conflicting VFR traffic or obstacle known to the controller. The pilot is responsible for maintaining the prescribed separation whether the controller has called the conflicting traffic or obstacle or not. 3.2.4 Flight Information Service (FIS) Flight Information Service is an air traffic service provided for the purpose of giving information for the safe and efficient conduct of flights. 3.2.5 Aerodrome Control Service Aerodrome control service is an air traffic control service that shall issue, with or without the use of radar, information, clearances and instructions for sequencing to aircraft to achieve a safe, orderly and expeditious flow of air traffic on and in the vicinity of an aerodrome (pilots flying VFR are responsible for separation). 4 CO-ORDINATION BETWEEN THE OPERATOR AND ATS Co-ordination between the operator and ATS is effected in accordance with ICAO Annex 11, chapter 2 and ICAO Doc 4444, chapter 8. For operational reasons, Belgian Defence may use non ICAO compliant procedures. 5 MINIMUM FLIGHT ALTITUDE No ATS route within the Brussels FIR has a lower limit falling below the minimum flight altitude as determined in accordance with ICAO Doc 8168, Volume I, Part I, Section 5, 1.4 and ICAO Doc 8168, Volume II, Part II, Section 3, 1.3 and 1.5. Minimum flight altitudes are therefore not published. AIM
