VVTS AD 2.21 NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

Nil

VVTS AD 2.22 FLIGHT PROCEDURES

1 RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs and RNP APCH
1.1 General procedures
1.1.1 For RNAV 1 SID/STAR and RNP APCH operations, the aircraft shall be GNSS equipped and the navigation systems shall meet ICAO RNAV 1 and RNP APCH standard of accuracy.
1.1.2 Pilots are responsible for checking RAIM Prediction in accordance with operational procedure for RAIM Prediction Service.
1.1.3 Aircraft operators/pilots who are not approved to fly RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs and RNP APCH based on GNSS shall inform ATC and expect radar vectors on the track of available procedures or expect conventional procedures where applicable.
1.1.4 For RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs operation at Tan Son Nhat Aerodrome, radar surveillance is mandatory.
1.5 A set of transition routes have been designed to link RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs with the existing ATS routes.
1.1.6 When air traffic condition permits, ATC will issue "Direct to" clearance or vector aircraft using possible shortest tracks in order to intercept the related airway.
1.2 Operational procedure
1.2.1 Aircraft operators/pilots expecting to use RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs and RNP APCH at Tan Son Nhat Aerodrome, shall fill appropriate navigation capability indicators into FPL, as follows:
  • Insert R (PBN approved) into item 10a;
  • Insert D1 (RNP 1 all permitted sensors) or D2 (RNAV 1 GNSS), S1 (RNP APCH) or S2 (RNP APCH with BARO-VNAV) after PBN/ in item 18;
  • Specify equipment to support each type of navigation capability in item 18 and insert them into item 10a (G, D, I for D1 or G for D2, S1 and S2).
1.2.2 Aircraft operators/pilots and aircraft shall ensure the approval of the RF function and notify ATC before being issued clearance for en-route in order to operate the SID procedures which requires the function to make the turn with the radius (RF leg).
1.2.3 At system initialization, pilots must verify that the navigation database has been updated according to the current time and confirm that the aircraft position has been entered correctly. Pilots must confirm proper entry of their ATC assigned route upon initial clearance; and any subsequent change of route, pilots must ensure the waypoints sequence, depicted by navigation system, matches the route depicted on the appropriate chart(s) and their assigned route.
1.2.4 Pilots must not fly an RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs and RNP APCH unless it is retrievable by route name from the on board navigation database and conforms to the charted route (the route may subsequently be modified through the insertion or deletion of specific waypoints in response to ATC clearances). The manual entry, or creation of new waypoints by manual entry of latitude and longitude or rho/theta values is not permitted. Additionally, pilots must not change any RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs and RNP APCH database waypoint type from a fly-by waypoint to a fly-over waypoint or vice versa.
1.2.5 Pilots shall comply with an ATC assigned level. Pilots shall also adhere to the vertical and speed restrictions depicted on the cleared RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs and RNP APCH. ATC clearance will take precedence when the ATC clearance does not allow the pilot to adhere to the vertical and speed restrictions depicted on these procedures.
1.2.6 If ATC issues an instruction taking the aircraft off a procedure, the pilot should not modify the flight plan in the RNAV system until a clearance is received to rejoin the procedure or the controller confirms a new procedure clearance. When the aircraft is not on the published procedure, the specified accuracy requirement does not apply.
1.2.7 The phraseology used by ATC and pilots concerning RNAV 1 SIDs/STARs and RNP APCH operations shall be compliant with Doc 4444 PANS-ATM.
1.3 For departure aircraft
1.3.1 The procedure for departing aircraft consists of two main elements:
  • SID; and
  • TRANSITION route, if necessary.
1.3.2 A TRANSITION route starts at the end of SID to a waypoint from which the aircraft will intercept the ATS route.
1.3.3 Vertical restrictions are designed to separate departing aircraft from obstacles and arriving aircraft.
1.3.4 ATC shall issue clearance for departing aircraft including the following contents:
  • Call sign;
  • Clearance limit, normally destination aerodrome;
  • SID and TRANSITION route if necessary;
  • Route;
  • Assigned flight level/altitude;
  • SSR code; and
  • Any other related instructions or information not contained in the SID description.
Note: In case of a clearance provided SID without assigned altitude/flight level, the pilot is not allowed to reduce the altitude/flight level itself on the SID vertical profile. Pilot shall re-confirm with ATC to assign specific altitude/flight level to ensure flight safety.
1.4 For arrival aircraft
1.4.1 Procedures for arriving aircraft consist of two main elements:
  • STAR; and
  • TRANSITION route if necessary.
1.4.2 A TRANSITION route starts at a waypoint on the ATS route to the waypoint that starts the STAR.
1.4.3 Vertical restrictions are designed to separate arriving aircraft from obstacles and departing aircraft.
1.4.4 Approach clearances shall be issued by ATC depending on practical operation conditions.
1.4.5 ATC shall issue clearance for arriving aircraft including the following contents:
  • Call sign;
  • STAR and TRANSITION route, if necessary;
  • Runway-in-use;
  • Assigned flight level/altitude; and
  • Any other related instructions or information not contained in the STAR description.
Notes:
  • In case of a clearance provided STAR without assigned altitude/flight level, the pilot is not allowed to reduce the altitude/flight level itself on the STAR vertical profile. Pilot shall re-confirm with ATC to assign specific altitude/flight level to ensure flight safety.
  • For flights from the Southwest (departing from Phu Quoc and Rach Gia Aerodromes ...) to Tan Son Nhat Aerodrome, pilots shall make flight plan following ATS route ... - TRN – BITIS to operate STAR RNAV 1.
  • In case of operational reasons, the pilot cannot make flight plan following ATS route mentioned above, aircraft shall be radar vectored to BITIS to comply with RNAV 1 STAR procedures system.
1.5 Speed control
1.5.1 In order to facilitate the flow of arriving aircraft within Tan Son Nhat TMA, speed control is applied to optimize the spacing between aircraft and improve the orderly flow of air traffic.
1.5.2 Unless instructed by ATC, all aircraft navigating under conditions of RNAV 1 SID/STAR and RNP APCH shall confirm to the speed restrictions in these procedures.
1.5.3 When necessary, speed adjustment may be applied on a tactical basic to the extent determined by ATC. When speed adjustment is no longer required, the phraseology “Resume normal speed” shall be used.
Note: The phrase “Resume normal speed” does not eliminate the speed restrictions that are applicable to these procedures in upcoming segments of flight.
1.5.4 If unable to comply with speed restrictions, pilots must immediately inform ATC and state the speed to be used.
1.6 Contingency procedures
1.6.1 Aircraft unable to comply with RNAV 1 or RNP APCH requirements
If unable to comply with RNAV 1 or RNP APCH requirements, pilots shall inform ATC and expect radar vectors on the track of published RNAV 1 procedures or expect conventional procedures where applicable.
1.6.2 Aircraft experiencing degradation or failure of RNAV System or GNSS signal
When an aircraft cannot meet the requirements of RNAV 1 or RNP APCH compliance as a result of a failure or degradation of RNAV System or failure GNSS signal, pilots shall notify ATC and expect radar vectors on the track of available procedures or expect conventional procedures where applicable.
1.6.3 Aircraft experiencing bad weather
  • When an aircraft flying on RNAV 1 or RNP APCH procedure encounters bad weather which is likely to impact the aircraft’s adherence to the cleared procedure, pilot will notify ATC and request a revised clearance.
  • ATC clearance "Direct to" will be used for aircraft to avoid bad weather, where applicable. In case bad weather area affects important points of RNAV 1 procedures, radar vector shall be applied by ATC for all aircraft.
1.6.4 Radio communications failure procedure
In case of a radio communication failure, the pilots are expected to follow the procedures given below:
  • Set transponder to Mode A/C code 7600.
  • Arriving aircraft continue on the assigned STAR procedure, comply with vertical and speed restrictions and at the end of the STAR make appropriate approach procedures.
  • Departing aircraft continue on the assigned SID procedure comply with vertical and speed restrictions and further climb to cruising level as mentioned in the current FPL.
1.6.5 Radar failure procedure
  • ATC expect to apply non-radar procedural control for all aircraft until radar surveillance system resumes normal operation.
1.6.6 Procedure for changing runway-in-use
  • ATC shall assign time to change the runway-in-use, and determine aircraft sequence in order to notify and issue suitable SID/STAR RNAV 1 and RNP APCH clearances for pilots.
  • In case of necessity, radar vectoring will be used by ATC to deal with complicated situations.

2 Operation of aircraft B747-8
See Item VVTS AD 2.20, sub-section 4: Operational capability of aircraft stands.
3 Operational procedureof two parallel runways
3.1 General rule
3.1.1 Two parallel RWYs at Tan Son Nhat International Airport are operated dependently and considered as one RWY for air traffic control service.
3.1.2 The departing aircraft are not allowed to line up two RWYs at the same time.
3.1.3 Pilots are responsible for complying with ATC's clearances, instructions strictly and in a timely manner; urgently vacate RWY or line up RWY and take off following the issued take-off clearance.
3.1.4 The usage of RWY for flight calibration of civil navigation aids, instrument procedures and for familiarisation flights have to follow the approved flight permission, ATS flight plan or training flight exercise.
3.1.5 These operational procedures are not applied in emergency, urgency and other necessary situations to ensure the safety and regularity of the flight operations.
3.2 Usage of runway
3.2.1 RWY 25R/L:
a. RWY 25R is mainly used for landing aircraft;
b. RWY 25L is mainly used for take-off aircraft;
c. When the PSR/SSR or PSR/SSR/SMR are in normal operation and ATC is able to supervise the aircraft trajectory, the departing aircraft are allowed to line up and hold on RWY 25L, independently from the position of aircraft approaching to land on RWY 25R under the following conditions:
  • Visibility is at or above 1 200 m, ceiling is at or above 130 m.
  • The PSR/SSR or PSR/SSR/SMR are in normal operation, the targets are accurately displayed as standard requirement.
  • The display of ATM system is able to fully observe the final approach segment on RWY 25 (10 NM from THR) and detect the risk of landing on the wrong RWY at the final approach segment. The SMR system is in normal operation and the display is able to observe the last 4 km (2 NM) of the final approach segment;
  • Aircraft trajectory is observed strictly by ATC and recommended in a timely manner when occurring the risk of landing on the wrong RWY;
  • In case when visibility is less than 3 000 m, ceiling is less than 180 m; Tan Son Nhat TWR shift shall ensure to arrange watch-supervisor or an ATC to supervise the conduction of monitoring, supervising the aircraft trajectory on the final approach track and shall anticipate, alert for the unusual circumstances in order to facilitate ATC to handle and ensure the flight operation safety in a timely manner.
The permission for an aircraft to line up and hold on RWY when there is a landing aircraft on the remaining RWY shall be suspended as soon as when one of the above requirements is not met.
d. ATC can issue take-off clearance for aircraft on RWY 25L when:
- Arriving aircraft landed normally on RWY 25R; or
- Without radar surveillance: 3 mins before estimated landing time.
- Under radar surveillance:

e. ATC can issue clearance for approaching aircraft to land on RWY 25R when departing aircraft rolling on RWY 25L.
f. When TWYs P4,P5 are in normal operation, after landing on RWY 25R, aircraft are assigned to:
  • Vacate RWY 25R via rapid exit TWYs P4,P5 as soon as practicable;
  • Hold short of RWY 25L; and
  • Only be allowed to cross RWY 25L when obtained the clearance from ATC.
Notes:In case of being unable to vacate via TWYs P4,P5, the pilot must early notify to ATC when the aircraft is still on the final approach track of RWY 25R.
g. When pilots receive "Line up" clearance, if the aircraft is not fully ready, pilots shall inform ATC immediately in order to avoid RWY occupancy that may lead to the execution of missed approach of landing aircraft.
3.2.2 When using runway 07L/R:
a. RWY 07R is mainly used for landing aircraft.
b. RWY 07L is mainly used for take-off aircraft.
c. ATC can issue clearance for departing aircraft (at holding point) to cross RWY 07R no later than the time when arriving aircraft on final approach ofRWY 07R is:
  • At least 5 NM from RWY threshold under radar surveillance; or
  • 3 minutes before estimated landing time without surveillance radar.
d. ATC can issue clearance for departing aircraft to line up and hold on RWY 07L to meet the requirements specified in the above mentioned point c and point c item 3.2.1.
e. ATC can issue take-off clearance for aircraft to line up RWY 07L when:
- Arriving aircraft landed normally on RWY 07R; or
- Without radar surveillance: 03 mins before estimated landing time.
- Under surveillance radar:

f. ATC can issue clearance for approaching aircraft to land on RWY 07R when departing aircraft starts rolling on RWY 07L.
g. When TWYs S6,S5 are in normal operation, after landing on RWY 07R, medium and lighter aircraft must vacate RWY 07R via TWYs S6,S5 as soon as practicable.
Notes:In case of being unable to vacate via TWYs S6,S5, the pilots must early notify to ATC when aircraft is still on the final approach track of RWY 07R.
h. When TWY S3 is in normal operation, after landing on RWY 07R, heavy aircraft must vacate RWY 07R via rapid exit TWY S3 as soon as practicable.
Notes:In case of being unable to vacate via TWY S3, the pilots must early notify to ATC when aircraft is still on the final approach track of RWY 07R.
i. When pilots receive "Line up" clearance, if the aircraft is not fully ready, pilots shall inform ATC immediately in order to avoid RWY occupancy that may lead to the execution of missed approach of landing aircraft.
3.2.3 When VIP flights are in operation:
The RWY used forVIP flights shall be assigned on the basic ofthe RWY with the best equipment system and actual operational conditions.
