D. OVERVIEWSL-4-IGM

In this lesson we will discuss the following topics:

ICAO Annex 2 - Rules of the Air ICAO Doc 7030 – Regional

Supplementary Procedures (as amended) ICAO Doc 7030 Communication Failure

Guidance (as amended) ICAO Annex 6 - Operation of Aircraft (as

amended) ICAO Annex 10 - Data Link Requirements

(as amended)Aeronautical Telecommunications (as amended)



What is ICAO Doc 7030 and why do we care? How does it relate to Annex 2?

Answer: ICAO Annex 2 has guidance and often includes language about “unless amended by regional agreement” This” This means the operator would go to applicable section of 7030 for guidance in that geographic area.





II. BODYSL-5-IGM

Question: Is ICAO a regulatory body?

Answer: No.

Question: Does ICAO have any enforcement capability?Answer: No, this is delegated to the States.



christine obst, 07/29/15,

according to corrections spreadsheet, there is supposed to be a question added to slide and then answer below or add second slide -- not sure what the question is and if should add a slide or not – all we have is ICAO Exemptions and Answer: Yes, refer to AFS-50 website at …



Question: What is ICAO’s role in International operations?Answer: Establishing Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPS). It is a requirement for U.S. civil operators to comply with standards unless an exemption has been issued or the U.S. has filed a difference. For example, a part 135 operator that lands in Bermuda might be ramp checked to determine if they meet ICAO Annex 6 standards, such as having an SMS process in place.SARPS are used by States as a basis for their regulatory system and/or these may be included in their AIPs.

Instructor will point out where exemptions can be found.

Question: Do ASIs have access to ICAO documents? Why or why not?Answer: ICAO web site is no longer available through FSIMS, and you need a user name and password to access it as of October 2011.

Question: Do operators need to have all the Documents and AIPs for the country to which they are flying?Answer: Most people rely on vendor-supplied materials but it is the operator’s responsibility to have current materials.

As mentioned earlier, the ICAO web site is no longer available through FSIMS and you need a user name and password to access it as of October 2011.

POC within the FAA is AFS-50.

ICAO requires that each individual apply for access to the ICAO-NET site.

http://portal.icao.int/

http://portal.icao.int/



To access ICAO Documents:1. Go to http://portal.icao.int2. Fill out the profile and state that you are

under the "ST_US" group. Once you send the email request to ICAO, ICAO will then send you a New Account Request Confirmation email.

A number of these ICAO documents are available for purchase. Because of the cost of the initial purchase and maintaining the currency of ICAO documents, industry usually does not purchase these documents.

ASIs should not distribute these documents to industry. This is an FAA privilege.

SL-7-IGM





Question: Does Oakland own the airspace indicated in the graphic?Answer: No, international waters are ICAO airspace that is delegated to specific countries for management. For example, the Oakland Oceanic Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC) manages most of the Pacific airspace. This airspace is also called the Oakland Flight Information Region (FIR).

Oakland is the biggest FIR in the world.

SL-8-IGM

Review all 18 annexes listed on the next slide.





Question: How many ICAO Annexes have been published?Answer: 18.

The next slide lists all 18 annexesSL-9-IGM

4/2/2013Review all 18 annexes with the class – emphasize which ones will be used in this course.

ICAO is working on annex 19, for SMS

Question: Which Annexes do operators need to be concerned about?Answer: All. The 21000039 course goes into detail about each of these. Our course goes into Annex 2, 6, and 10 as they are the ones you will be using regularly.





A. ANNEX 2 - RULES OF THE AIRSL-10-IGM

Annex 2 topic areas include: General Rules

Journey Log (e.g., computer flight plan) Part 91 Oceanic Operations

o Requirements to maintain center line (unless the SLOP is approved)

o Communication requirements to include communication failures

International fuel requirements rules in controlled and uncontrolled airspace

Interception of civil aircraft

3/27/2013Annex 2 is a Federal Aviation Regulation requirement for U.S. Civil Operators conducting operations over the high seas.(91.703)





1. ICAO Doc 7030 – Regional Supplementary Procedures Specific to NAT

SL-11-IGM

Regional Supplementary Procedures have information specific to geographic areas.

Open the link for Doc 7030 and go over table of contents and requirement for NAT Track message.

Some examples of Doc 7030 NAT-specific guidance are as follows: If an operator flies in or above North

Atlantic Minimum Navigation Performance Specifications (NAT-MNPS) Airspace, they are required to have a current NAT track message onboard

If a crew notes that an Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) passed to Air Traffic Control (ATC) for the next compulsory reporting point is in error by 3 minutes or more, they are required to advise ATC with an update

This is important due to current longitudinal separation.

Let’s take a look at the communications failure procedure in Annex 2 and see how it relates to another ICAO document (Doc 7030).





2. ICAO Communication Failure Guidance

SL-12-IGM

3/27/2013

The guidance is different in each document.

You should recall in a previous slide, Annex 2 Communication Failure guidance and the reference to a regional agreement Pacific North Atlantic

Click on each picture on the slide to open the document and review the relevant Communication Failure guidance.

When operating over the high seas, U.S. civil operators are required to comply with ICAO Annex 2 unless amended by regional agreement as noted in ICAO Doc 7030 for that specific geographic area.

It is very important for operators to know area specific communication failure procedures.




Correction note: “Regional Supplementary Procedure photo should open to NAT Lost Comm procedures, NOT table of contents.” – NEED photo of correct page



SL-13-IGM 3/27/2013

Question: In what other document(s), that has/have been discussed, will you find communication failure guidance?Answer: ICAO Doc 7030 and Annex 2. Remember to go to area-specific guidance.

B. ANNEX 6 - OPERATION OF AIRCRAFTSL-14-IGM





Annex 6 contains three parts as follows: Part 1: International Commercial Air

Transport – Aeroplanes (part 121 and 135 commercial operators)

Part 2: International General Aviation – Aeroplanes (part 91 and 125 operators)

Part 3: International Operations - Helicopters

Some States may not recognize these operators as being categorized as such (e.g. Part 125 operators)

SL-15-IGM

Question: Annex 6 Part 1 Operations are applicable to U.S. civil operators operating under which Federal Aviation Regulation?Answer: Part 121 and 135 commercial operators. It’s applicable to operators conducting operations for compensation.

Click on the picture to open Annex 6 Part 1 and review the Table of Contents




PROMPTS CONTENT NOTESSL-16-IGM

Question: Annex 6 Part 2 Operations are applicable to U.S. civil operators operating under which Federal Aviation Regulation?Answer: Part 91/91K operators (or part 125).

Click on the Annex 6 Part 2 link on the slide to open and review the Table of Contents.

Part 125 operations could fall under Annex 6 Part 1 or Part 2. Some countries do not recognize a part 125 operation.Part 125 operations do not necessarily meet ICAO Annex 6 Part 2 standards.




PROMPTS CONTENT NOTESSL-17-IGM 3/27/2013

We will discuss part 1 and part 2 in2 in more detail later.

Let’s take a closer look at Annex 6. Topic areas inlcude:

Flight Operations Fuel Standards Minimum Equipment List (MEL) Communication/Navigation Equipment Safety Management System (SMS) Flight Operations Officer/Flight

Dispatcher

Click on the Part 1 and Part 2 links on the slide to review the Fuel section in Annex 6.

For example, a U.S. civil operator under part 135 might be ramp checked in France to determine that they meet the Annex 6 Part 1 fuel standards to conduct oceanic operations.

CAA Inspectors use the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) checklist (tailored to their respective countries) when conducting ramp checks.

3/27/2013SAFA-Safety Assessment of Foreign Aircraft





Question: What does SAFA stand for?Answer: Safety Assessment of Foreign Aircraft.Question: What source document is ICAO using to review the SAFA checklist?Answer: Annex 6Ramp checks frequently occur in France. For example, personnel licensing, Comm/Nav.

Ask this question PRIOR to opening the link.

SAFA document originates from EASA

A number of Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) Inspectors are using a Safety Assessment of Foreign Aircraft (SAFA) Checklist to determine compliance with ICAO SARPs.

HO-01-IGM

Ask students to turn to the HOPE in the back of this lesson and pull out HO-01-IGM

Click on the SAFA Checklist link on the slide, to open and briefly review the document

D. PROCEDURES FOR AIR NAVIGATION SERVICES AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT (ICAO 4444 PANS ATM) (AS AMENDED)

SL-20-IGM 3/27/2013

Explain the relationship and hierarchy of the ICAO documents.

Let’s take a look at ICAO PANS-ATM Doc 4444. Topic areas inlcude:

General Provisions for Air Traffic Separation Methods and Minima Automatic Dependent Surveillance –

Contract (ADS-C) Controller-Pilot Data Link

Communications (CPDLC)

Click on the ICAO 4444 PANS ATM link on the slide to open and briefly scan through it.

Even though Doc 4444 has references to ADS-C and CPDLC for oceanic Data Link operations the source document is the GOLD.





3/27/2013Click the links on the slide to open and review each guidance.

Procedures Related to Emergencies, Communications Failure and Contingencies

Strategic Lateral Offset Procedure (SLOP)

It is very important for operators to know area specific communication failure procedures.

The contingencies noted include the folowing: Single Aircraft Offset Procedure

(Turnback or Divert) Weather Deviation Procedure

The SLOP procedure was originally incorrectly listed in the contingency section of Doc 4444 but was subsequently moved to a separate section since SLOP should be Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) and not just for contingencies.





Duration: 10 minutes (5 minutes to complete the PE and 5 minutes to debrief)

1. Where will you find guidance in Annex 10 for oceanic CPDLC and ADS-C?Answer: Vol II Ch 8 has limited information on CPDLC and Vol III has information on ATN. See reference document Global Operational Data Link document (GOLD) for oceanic Data Link operations.

Explain that we will later go into detail on the GOLD document.

2. Does PANS-ATM Doc 4444, contain any information on the SLOP? If yes, where?Answer: Yes. It is found in Chapter 16.

Let’s review some of the other flight produres outlined in Procedures for Air Navigation Services Aircraft Operations Vol. 1 Flight Procedures (PANS-OPS Doc 8168) (as amended).E. PROCEDURES FOR AIR NAVIGATION SERVICES AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS VOL. 1 FLIGHT PROCEDURES (DOC 8168) (AS AMENDED)

SL-23-IGM

There has been discussion with ICAO Montreal to move more of the pilot guidance out of PANS ATM to PANS OPS.

ACAS is an ICAO term.





Topic areas covered in PANS-OPS Doc 8168 inlcude: Area Navigation (RNAV) Satellite-based RNAV RNP/RNAV En Route Procedures ACAS International Altimetery Flight Planning Procedures

Note that even though PANS-OPS addresses flight procedures, information on the single aircraft and weather contingency procedures as well as SLOP are not contained in this document but are found in ICAO 4444 PANS ATM.

Question: What does ACAS stand for?Answer: Airborne Collision Avoidance System

3/27/2013

Under TCAS for example ACAS II means TCAS II version 7 or better.Ver. 7.1 mandate in Europe planned for December 2015 based upon the aircraft weight or pax configuration and whether or not it’s a new aircraft.

Please ask participants to pull out handout HO-04-IGM from the HOPE file in the back of this lesson called “International Altimetry”.

3/27/2013HO-04-IGM





1. Altimetry Terms and DefinitionsSL-24-IGM QNH – local

airportQNE – the “e” is en route. QFE - on the ground the attitude is zero.Click on the International Altimetry link to review the document.

QFE is the standard in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). When the altimeter is set correctly to QFE, the altimeter will show zero elevation at touchdown.

Some areas of Russia and the CIS are now using QNH.

2. Altimeter Measurement Scales:SL-25-IGM





Altimeter setting procedures outside the U.S. and Canada are significantly different and can lead to serious errors if not properly performed.Only the U.S. and Canada have a fixed transition altitude of 17,500 and a fixed transition level of FL180.In other parts of the world, transition altitudes vary from country to country and airport to airport. Crews should review the approach plate or monitor the ATIS for transition altitudes/flight levels.Transition levels vary daily with weather conditions and are issued by ATC.

3. Transition Altitude vs. Transition Level

SL-26-IGM

Approach Control in some countries will issue a QFE setting. It’s imperative that the correct altimeter setting is clearly understood.





The UK and other countries in Europe are considering the adoption of a common transition attitude. Time lines are to be determined.
