Position | IVAN CS | RT Callsign | Frequency |
---|---|---|---|
GMC | EGJJ GND | Jersey Ground | 121.905 |
AIR | EGJJ TWR | Jersey Tower | 119.445 |
INT | EGJJ_APP | Jersey Control | 125.205 |
Aerodrome Control Responsibilities are split into:
Runway 08 is the preferred runway when the tailwind component is less than 5 knots.
Jersey QFE = QNH - 9 hPa
Jersey Airport is not equipped for CAT II/III operations, however Low Visibility Procedures are used to protect CAT I and CAT II operations:
Low Visibility Procedures will commence when the RVR/ MET Visibility is 400M or less.
Runway 08 Arrivals
Arriving traffic on Runway 08 will vacate the runway via Rapid Exit Taxiway Foxtrot or at the runway end via Taxiway Alpha.
Runway 26 Arrivals
Arriving traffic on Runway 26 will vacate the runway at the runway end via Taxiway Bravo. Taxiway Delta may be available on request.
IFR aircraft should provide their aircraft type, stand number and ATIS code received on first contact.
IFR aircraft departing Jersey will be issued a Standard Instrument Departure (SID) as standard.
Type | Stand/ Parking Area |
---|---|
All airlines | 1 - 6 ; 7 - 13 |
Remote parking | 20 - 23 |
Cargo | 15 - 19 |
All departures from Jersey require a release from Jersey Control (JJ INT).
Wake turbulence separation minima on departure shall be applied by measuring airborne times between successive aircraft. Take-off clearance may be issued with an allowance for the anticipated take-off run on the runway; however, the airborne time interval shall reflect a difference of at least the required time separation. ATC does not have the discretion to reduce wake turbulence separation minima.
CAA Departure seperation minima must be applied between departing aircraft. Departure separation minima can also be found within the XU Quickview.
For the purpose of Route separation, Jersey SIDs are split into North and South.
North | BENIX; ORIST; ORTAC; SKERY |
---|---|
South | DIN; LERAK; ORVAL; OYSTA; TUNIT |
Leading Aircraft | Following Aircraft | Separation (Mins) |
---|---|---|
North | North | 2 |
North | South | 1 |
South | South | 2 |
South | North | 1 |
Departing IFR aircraft should be transferred to Jersey Control (JJ INT) when airborne before passing altitude 2000 ft.
If JJ INT is offline departures should be transferred to EGTT_W CTR (LAC W).
If the above sectors are offline departures should be released to UNICOM.
JJ INT will retain control of arriving aircraft until the aircraft passes 4nm DME, transfer of communication can occur prior to this point.
JJ INT is responsible for the necessary spacing between inbound aircraft. The AIR controller should monitor inbound aircraft to check that the correct spacing is being achieved.
Should any corrective action be required for arriving aircraft outside of 4nm DME, coordination should be effected between the AIR controller and JJ INT.
The wake turbulence separation minima in the XU Quickview shall be applied to aircraft on final approach when:
(1) an aircraft is operating directly behind another aircraft at the same altitude or less than 1,000 ft below; or
(2) an aircraft is crossing behind another aircraft, at the same altitude or less than 1,000 ft below;
Jersey Control (JJ INT) is responsible for approach control services to aircraft within the Channel Islands Control Zone (CICZ) with vertical limits from SFC to FL195 and lateral limits shown in the diagram below.
London Area Control willl descend IFR Aircraft inbound to Jersey to the following standing agreed levels:
Sector From | Sector To | Standing Agreement |
---|---|---|
LAC South | EGJJ | FL200 level LELNA |
LAC West | EGJJ | FL210 level SKERY |
Hold | Inbound Course/ Direction | Levels |
---|---|---|
ALD | 079/ Left | FL60+ |
GUR | 088/ Left | FL60+ |
JW | 083/ Right | 2000+ |
SHARK | 083/ Right | By ATC |
A minimum radar seperation of 3nm must be applied within the Channel Islands CTR and 5nm within the TMA.
The wake turbulence separation minima in the XU Quickview shall be applied to aircraft on final approach when:
(1) an aircraft is operating directly behind another aircraft at the same altitude or less than 1,000 ft below; or
(2) an aircraft is crossing behind another aircraft, at the same altitude or less than 1,000 ft below;
Aircraft should be vectored to establish 2nm before the Final Approach Point (FAP).
The Channel Islands CTR is class D Controlled airspace up to FL85. Class A Airspace exists above FL85 to a vertical limit of FL195.
All circuits will be to the south of the aerodrome unless advised by ATC.
Wherever possible the majority of the circuit shall be carried out over the sea.
Standard circuit altitude for propeller driven aircraft is 1300 FT AMSL (1023 FT AAL).
Standard circuit altitude for turbo-jet aircraft is 1800 FT AMSL (1523 FT AAL).
Visual circuits will not be permitted when the cloud ceiling is lower than 600 FT AAL.
VFR Flights should route via Visual Reference Point’s (VRP’s) not above altitude 2000ft Jersey QNH.
VRP’s can be displayed within the Aurora sectorfile or;
Referenced from the NATS UK AIP.
VFR Transits should not enter the Jersey ATZ without approval from AIR. VFR transits should cross overhead via the threshold of the Runway in use.
Special VFR clearances for flights within the Channel Islands CTR may be requested and will be given whenever traffic conditions permit. These flights are subject to the general conditions laid down for Special VFR Flights in SERA.5010.
The use of Special VFR clearances is intended to be limited to light aircraft which cannot comply with full IFR requirements and wish to proceed to or from an aerodrome within, or to transit the Channel Islands CTR.
Special VFR clearance to operate within the Jersey ATZ will not be granted to a fixed wing aircraft if the reported visibility is less than 1500 M or the reported cloud ceiling is less than 600 FT.
Special VFR clearance to operate within the Jersey ATZ for the purpose of proceeding to or from Jersey Airport will not be granted to a helicopter if the reported visibility is less than 800 M or the reported cloud ceiling is less than 600 FT.
Helicopters are to use the main runway for all arrivals and departures as no specific helicopter landing area exists
Helicopters under 1400 KG may be handled by the Aero Club and parked on the grass area southwest of Holding Point Hotel, space permitting. Helicopters over 1400 KG must be handled by Gama Aviation and parked on their apron. All helicopters requiring AVTUR Jet A-1 must be handled by Gama Aviation.
Jersey control may provide UK Flight Information Services outside of the Channel Islands CTR. Only a Basic Service may be provided due to the traffic environment surrounding the Channel Islands.
