  FLIGHT PROCEDURE AT DON MUEANG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

  INTRODUCTION

This section supplements the following portion(s) of the AIP: AD

  With effect from 20 July 2017, Flight Procedure at Don Mueang International Airport has been revised VTBD AD 2.22 as follows;

  Provision of Radar Services

  Bangkok Approach is responsible for providing radar service to aircraft operating within Bangkok Terminal Control Area and Bangkok Control Zone (See ENR 2.1-4 Para.3).

  Arriving aircraft intending to land at Don Mueang International Airport will be transferred to Don Mueang Arrival on frequency 125.5 MHz.

  Approach Procedures with Radar Control

  All procedures are designed to maximize departure and arrival capacity in Bangkok TMA and minimize noise disturbance in areas overflown.

  The final approach may be carried out by means of ILS or other available instrument approach systems at the discretion of the pilot.

  The spacing provided between aircraft will be designed to achieve maximum runway utilization within the parameters of safe separation minima including vortex effect and runway occupancy. It is important to the validity of separation provided and the achievement of optimum runway capacity that runway occupancy time is kept to a minimum consistent with the prevailing conditions.

  The horizontal radar separation minimum shall be 5 NM except within BKK TMA, BKK CTR and Don Mueang ATZ, a reduced separation of 3 NM may be applied.

  Missed approach procedures

  As directed by ATC.

  In the absence of instructions from ATC, aircraft shall follow the missed approach procedures contained on the Instrument Approach Charts (See VTBD AD 2.24).

  STANDARD INSTRUMENT DEPARTURES/ARRIVALS (RNAV SIDs/STARs)

  Departing aircraft

  RNAV Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs) Procedures are as follows:

Note: Pilots of Non-RNAV equipped aircraft shall inform ATC and request for radar vectors.

  TCAS RA WARNING

  Avoidance of unnecessary TCAS RA warning, aircraft shall strictly use rate of climb or rate of descent at 1 500 fpm or less within 2 000 ft to the assigned altitude or flight level, then use rate of climb or rate of descend at 1 000 fpm or less within 1 000 ft to the assigned altitude or flight level when flight crew is made aware of another aircraft at or approaching an adjacent altitude or flight level, unless otherwise instructed by ATC.

  OPERATIONAL FOR SAFETY AND MORE EFFECTIVE AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT IN BANGKOK TMA

  If practicable, aircraft operating within Bangkok TMA should operate SSR Mode S transponders. The data entered in the Mode S Aircraft Identification must match the three letter ICAO designator for the aircraft operating agency and the flight number to ensure the correlated flight identity.

  All departing aircraft are strictly required to contact Don Mueang Departure after airborne unless otherwise instructed by ATC.

  DELAY DURING SEVERE WEATHER

  All aircraft may be delayed. Departure/arrival interval will be applied as follows:

  1. 4 minutes or more between successive departures on the same SID or between aircraft intending to fly in the direction where severe weather is reported.

  2. 4 minutes or more between successive arrivals on the same STAR/at the same IAWP or between aircraft intending to fly in the direction where severe weather is reported.

  When severe weather has an effect on landing/take-off, domestic flights intending to land at Don Mueang International airport may be requested to delay at airport of departure.

  TOTAL RADIO COMMUNICATION FAILURE FOR ARRIVING AIRCRAFT

  Proceed according to the RNAV STARs route to the waypoint DM111 for RWY21L/R or DM303 for RWY03L/R and descend in accordance with the published speed and altitude restrictions of the relevant RNAV STAR procedure, thence:

  1. For RWY 21L/R: at DM111 and maintain altitude 3 000 ft. The pilot shall make a right holding pattern with inbound course of 029 and one-minute leg, then descend to 1 600 ft and carry out the appropriate approach procedure.

  2. For RWY 03L/R: proceed to DM303 and maintain altitude 3 000 ft. The pilot shall make a right holding pattern with inbound course of

    090 and one-minute leg, then descend to 2 300 ft and carry out the appropriate approach procedure.

  VFR FLIGHTS

  Special VFR Flight

A pilot wishing to conduct special VFR flight is to call Don Mueang Delivery on frequency 127.7 MHz for special VFR clearance.

  VFR Entry and Exit Procedures in Bangkok Control Zone

The details of VFR entry and exit procedures are given in ENR 2.2 VFR ENTRY AND EXIT PROCEDURES IN BANGKOK CONTROL ZONE.

  Radio Communication Failure for VFR flights

  Departing Aircraft.

Aircraft will not be permitted to take off unless two-way radio communications can be maintained with the control tower.

  Arriving Aircraft.

  1. Report position, distance, heading and altitude as well as departure point when approaching 50 NM from BKK VOR by blind transmission.

  2. Observe the direction of traffic in pattern, and enter downwind with the flow of traffic.

  3. Conform to the altitude for the type of aircraft as listed in Note 1.

  4. Make a low approach between the runways at an altitude of 500 ft, and rock the wings of the aircraft.

  5. Re enter downwind leg and observe light signals.

  Alternative methods for communicating with ATC

Pilots may endeavor to communicate with ATC by telephone network. The telephone numbers are as follows:

  1. Don Mueang Tower Tel : +662 515 3282, +662 515 3288, +668 1710 7449
