I. INTRODUCTIONSL-1-FPL 4/1/2013

A. REVIEW

The previous lesson discussed responsibility for operational control, the regulatory basis for each 14 CFR part of operational control, the different types of operational control systems, and operational control approval issues.In this lesson, we will address the responsibilities and guidance involved in flight planning, the flight plan spot-check areas, and ICAO code differences.

4/1/2013

B. MOTIVATION





To be able to correctly and consistently issue Operations Specifications (OpSpecs), Management Specifications (MSpecs), and Letters of Authorization (LOAs) to operators and individuals desiring to operate in special areas of operation by thoroughly understanding flight planning-current and ICAO (2012) issues through consultation with your Regional NextGen SAO Specialist.

4/1/2013

C. OBJECTIVESSL-2-FPL

4/1/2013

Participants will be able to:





Explain the responsibilities of the certificate holder, dispatch, and flight planning vendor

Identify guidance and standards applicable to flight planning

Identify all the authorizations noted on the Flight Plan

Identify areas ASI should spot-check in the Flight Plan

Identify ICAO codes Complete a portion of an

automated/manual ICAO Flight Plan

D. OVERVIEWSL-3-FPL

Flight planning responsibilities Flight planning guidance ICAO Flight Plan (FPL) Areas to spot-check

Let’s take a look at some responsibilities of those involved in flight planning.





II. BODY

A. RESPONSIBILITIESSL-4-FPL

1. Certificate Holder

The certificate holder is responsible for the flight planning process to ensure the flight planning data is accurate.2. Flight Planning Vendor

The flight planning vendor is not under regulatory oversight, but is responsible to the certificate holder.Third parties can provide flight-planning tools, but they are not authorized to dispatch flights.

Key word difference is dispatch vs flight following

SL-5-FPLSlide 1 of 2

The certificate holder is responsible for the flight planning product.





3. Dispatcher

The dispatcher (and PIC) under part 121 is responsible for: Flight planning considerations include:

Fuel Planning ATC Routing – navigation, predictive

RAIM, RNP requirements Meteorology

SL-6-FPLSlide 2 of 2




SS: according to PDF (#3): “Reallign paragraphs supporting slides 4-7.” Unsure about how to do this.



Notices to Airmen (NOTAMS) Contingency Procedures – ETPs, ETOPS

calculations, drift down, oxygen requirements, volcanic ash avoidance

MEL/CDL Requirements

SL-7-FPL

The dispatcher (and PIC) under part 121 Flag must also have:

These elements of flight planning for part 121 flag must still be considered for all other operations under FAR 91/91K, 121 supplemental, 125 and 135.

Knowledge of SAO requirements, including:

OpSpecs CNS requirements Applicable regulations and ICAO

Standards Flight planning software capabilities

and limitations





B. FLIGHT PLANNING GUIDANCESL-8-FPL 4/1/2013

1. North Atlantic Operations and Airspace Manual

4/1/2013Refer briefly to Chapters 4 and 17 from North Atlantic Operations and Airspace Manual.

In Chapter 17 point out equipment/authorization codes for fields 10 & 18 of the ICAO Flight Plan.

The following two chapters contain information specific to flight planning: Chapter 4 - Flight Planning Chapter 17 – Guidance for Dispatchers





2. State Aeronautical Information Publications (AIPs)State Aeronautical Information Publications (AIPs) are often reviewed by vendors and the summary of the material is provided to industry. Operators do not routinely access AIPs for each country or geographic area where they conduct operations. The operator however is responsible for relevant information in those AIPs.AIPs are often available online at no cost. It is not uncommon for an AIP to have a combined geographic area for example: one AIP can cover a group of islands or a group of small countries.3. Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM)

AIMs are not available in all countries. The U.S. and Canada publish an AIM that has more detail than the AIP.

Go to the FAA’s State AIP web site and point out the location of the U.S. AIM.Also review the Table of Contents.(Link on slide)




PROMPTS CONTENT NOTESSL-9-FPL

4/1/2013

FAA Inspectors can sign up for access to the European AIPs.

For example, an operator requesting Area of Magnetic Unreliability (AMU) must review the Canadian AIM and the Designated Airspace Handbook.

Click on each document’s PDF link on the slide to open and review the Table of Contents

This guidance material will define the geographic areas, communication capabilities, airspace requirements, and availability of airports. These documents also include a number of maps that define the geographic areas.

Click on the DAH’s M2 link on the slide to open and review the section.

C. ICAO FLIGHT PLAN (FPL)




SS: according to PDF (#27): “replace the ‘website” and ‘online’ full PDF Document Links with: ‘Online DAH Document’ and http://www.navcanada.ca/en/products-and-services/pages/aeronautical-information-products-designated-airspace-handbook.aspx



4/1/2013

FAA Form 7233-4.

Ask participants to go to the back of this lesson and pull out handouts HO-01-FPL, ICAO Flight Plan and HO-02-FPL, Completed ICAO Flight Plan and follow along.

4/1/2013Show the blank FAA and ICAO Flight Plan examples.(Links on slide)

Show Completed ICAO flight plan (click link)

Walk through Document

Point out Block 10 and Block 18




SS: according to PDF (#5): “create a new slide with links to both a blank and completed flight plan form, as well as the computer printout of flight plan information.”


PROMPTS CONTENT NOTESHO-02-FPL

FAA Form 7233-4 can be used by any US operator flying either in the NAS or conducting an International Flight. In addition, a US operator only flying in the NAS and not using or requesting RNAV has the option of either using 7233-4 or 7233-1. When filing 7233-1 (aka domestic flight plan form or NAS flight plan form), then you provide a single-letter suffix as described in the AIM Table 5-1-2.

FAA ATC is also working on a simplified flight plan form that is consistent with ICAO but much easier to fill out so that we can retire 7233-1 and the NAS FP. The approach will be to eliminate a lot of the data that we do not need for domestic operations, so the equipment list and "other information" codes will all be shorter and simpler.

1. Wake Turbulence Category in Block 9

SL-11-FPL

Explain each of these: heavy, medium and light.

These weights are noted in kg and pounds.





The specific block 10 and block 18 differences will be covered in more detail on the following 4 slides.

2. ICAO 2012 Flight Plan ChangesSL-12-FPL

4/1/2013

Point out each of the new qualifiers.

Click ICAO 2012 Flight Plan to go to link

Let’s review some of the new qualifiers.ICAO 2012 was implemented to provide a universal flight Plan format and to provide greater detail for equipment codes in Block 10 and Block 18. For example, block 10 and block 18 have greater detail of the CNS capabilities and authorizations.

4/1/2013Procedures for Air Navigation Services Air Traffic Management (ICAO 4444 PANS ATM) (as amended), was updated with new codes.





4/1/2013UAT - Universal Access Transceiver.

UAT is a light aircraft ADS-B device.

Click Flight Plan link to go to website.

The following capabilities will be described in greater detail:

CPDLC ADS-C ADS-B MODE-S PBN

ADS-C and ADS-B are surveillance codes that come after the slant (/) in block 10.




PROMPTS CONTENT NOTESSL-14-FPL 4/1/2013

Many codes in Block 18 are part of the PBN initiative giving greater detail for operators’ RNAV/RNP authorizations.

4/1/2013

SL-15-FPL 4/1/2013

Question: An Operator authorized to fly to Hawaii would enter which PBN code in block 18?Answer: A1 (RNP-10) as a minimum.

4/1/2013





D. AREAS TO SPOT-CHECKSL-16-FPL

1. Block 9

The ICAO Wake Turbulence Code for a Heavy aircraft is 300,000 lbs.

4/1/2013

For example, currently ICAO defines a heavy as 300,000 lbs or more, but the FAA uses more than 255,000 lbs for a heavy.

2. Block 10

Block 10 – The equipment codes must reflect the operator’s current CNS capabilities as well as any SAO authorizations.

3. Block 18Block 18 – Additional information includes specific details on C/N/S capabilities and authorizations, such as the specific Data Link approval and RNP authorization.





Practice Exercise follows.
