ENR 2.2  OTHER REGULATED AIRSPACE

1.  VFR ENTRY AND EXIT PROCEDURES IN BANGKOK CONTROL ZONE

1.1  General
1.1.1 The VFR entry and exit procedures are designed to enhance the uniformity of light aircraft and helicopter operations under VFR in Bangkok control zone.
1.1.2 VFR entry and exit procedure charts are the recommended flight paths and altitudes for the purpose of air traffic management.
1.1.3 Adherence to charted flight paths and altitudes is not mandatory. ATC may assign flight paths and altitudes, however, pilot has final authorities to decide whether he or she would comply with it but shall comply with Visual flight rules (VFR).
1.1.4 There is no substitute for alertness while operating under VFR. Pilots still have full responsibility to see and avoid other traffic and maintain adequate distance from clouds.
1.1.5 The VFR entry and exit procedures are to be flown only in daylight hours.
1.1.6 Under some circumstances, Radar Vectoring may be provided when requested by a pilot or whenever deemed necessary by ATC in the interest of safety and with pilot acceptance. Pilots should, as early as practicable advise ATC if VMC conditions cannot be maintained in Radar Vectoring environment. ATC shall request pilot intentions and revise the instruction as requested or, if unable, issue an alternative clearance as soon as possible.
1.2  VFR ENTRY AND EXIT PROCEDURES FOR LIGHT AIRCRAFT
1.2.1 The procedures for light aircraft are designed for aircraft with speed less than 130 knots.
1.2.2 For light aircraft with speed of 130 knots or greater, ATC may either authorize the aircraft to follow the prescribed VFR entry and exit procedures or assign flight paths and altitudes. However, pilot has final authorities to decide whether he or she would comply with it but shall always comply with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) and pilots still have full responsibility to see and avoid other traffic as well as maintain adequate distance from clouds. Separation shall be provided in accordance with Visual Flight Rules in Class C airspace.
