Radio Communication and Procedures pt 2
2
Control Zones

• Designated airspace around certain aerodromes to
  facilitate the control of VFR and IFR traffic
• Usually a 5 NM radius, 3,000 AGL
• VFR weather limits are higher
• SVFR may be requested in some zones
• Most zones designated as class D

Displaced Threshold

Control Zone in a Terminal Area is normally 7nm

VFR Weather Minima
7
SVFR - Special VFR

• Authorization obtained from the appropriate ATC
  unit allows you to fly
• -within a control zone,
• -in IFR weather conditions,
• -without an IFR clearance
• -has to be requested by the pilot
• 1 mile for aircraft
• ½ mile for helicopters
• -working radio
• -clear of cloud, in sight of ground
• at night, only to allow the aircraft to land

CAVOK KAV-OH-KAY

• No cloud below 5,000 feet, no cumulonimbus
• Visibility of 6 SM or more
• No precipitation, thunderstorms,
• shallow fog or drifting snow

11
EMERGENCY

• Declared
• Apparent
• Transponder 7700
• Radio 121.5 Mhz
• 243.0 Mhz

12
EMERGENCY

• Mayday or Pan Pan 3 times
• On air to ground frequency in use
• Name of station addressed
• Aircraft identification
• Nature of distress/emergency
• Intentions of PIC
• Position, altitude and heading

13
EMERGENCY

• Communication failure 7600
• Unlawful interference 7500
• If dual VHF then monitor 121.5 is suggested in
  AIP SAR 4.2
• Radar alerting manoeuvres

VHF Direction Finding Service

• Provides directional assistance
• An aid in times of difficulty
• SVFR aircraft will not be given VDF steers
• Provided when requested by the pilot, or
  suggested by the VDF operator and accepted by the
  pilot

22
Communication Problems

• Stuck mike
• Two on at once
• Radio failure
• -out of the zone
• -entering the zone
• -in the circuit
• NORDO
• RONLY

23
Communication Failures(602.138)

• Where there is a two-way radio communication
  failure between the ATC unit and a VFR aircraft
  while operating in Class B, C, or D airspace, the
  PIC shall
• leave the airspace
• where the airspace is a control zone, by landing
  at the aerodrome for which the control zone is
  established
• in any other case, by the shortest route

24
Communication Failures(602.138)

• Where there is a two-way radio communication
  failure between the ATC unit and a VFR aircraft
  while operating in Class B, C, or D airspace, the
  PIC shall
• squawk 7600 on the transponder (if the aircraft
  is equipped with one)
• inform ATC (as soon as possible) of the actions
  taken

25
Emergency Radio Capability(602.143)

• No person shall operate an aircraft equipped with
  two-way VFR radio communication equipment unless
  it is capable of providing communication on VHF
  frequency 121.50 MHz.

26
Interception Signals(602.114)

• No person shall give an interception signal or an
  instruction to land except
• a peace officer, an officer of police authority
  or an officer of the Canadian Forces
• a person authorized to do so by the Minister
