- Introduction Aerodromes and their aircraft manoeuvring areas
are important to know when operating an aircraft on and around
them.Aerodromes and their aircraft manoeuvring areas are important
to know when operating an aircraft on and around them. It is
important to know and understand the use of all markings and
lighting when flying and taxiing.It is important to know and

- Definitions Aerodrome - Any area of land or water designed for
the arrival, departure, movement and servicing of aircraftAerodrome
- Any area of land or water designed for the arrival, departure,
movement and servicing of aircraft Airport - Any aerodrome in which
a certificate is in forceAirport - Any aerodrome in which a
certificate is in force Movement Area - Areas used for surface
movement of aircraft, including maneuvering areas and
apronsMovement Area - Areas used for surface movement of aircraft,
including maneuvering areas and aprons Maneuvering Area - Areas
used for taking off, landing and aircraft taxiing, including
runways and taxiwaysManeuvering Area - Areas used for taking off,
landing and aircraft taxiing, including runways and taxiways Apron
(AKA Ramp) - Area for loading/unloading, refueling, servicing and
parking aircraftApron (AKA Ramp) - Area for loading/unloading,

- Runway Numbering Runway number:Runway number: 1.Magnetic
bearing 2.Round to nearest 10 3.Omit last digit 4.Add L, C or R if
more than one parallel runway (left, centre or right)
Example:Example: Runway pointing 18 = Rwy 02 Parallel runways
pointing 151 = Rwy 15L and Rwy 15R Other end of runway is
reciprocal number (+ or - 18)Other end of runway is reciprocal
number (+ or - 18)

White line across end of runway Displaced Threshold Arrows on
pavement before threshold Area not to be used for landing

- Taxiway Markings 09 Taxiway Centerline Yellow line in middle of
taxiway Aircraft centre themselves on line Hold Lines Yellow lines
across taxiway Aircraft must hold short at line unless cleared to
cross
- Slide 12
- Unserviceable Areas 09 Aircraft not to use unserviceable areas
Large white or yellow Xs on both ends of and along runway or
taxiway Red flags or flashing red lights may mark unserviceable
areas that can be passed with caution

- Wind Indicators Wind SockWind Sock Points away from wind
Straight = 15 kts or more 30 down = 6 kts Fluctuating = Gusty
