Preferential use of Runway
APU Restrictions
Reverse Thrust Use
RWY35 for take-off and RWY17 for landing are preferentially to be used. However, in order to achieve maximum flight safety, this procedure is not applied under the following circumstances.
The use of other runway is necessary in consideration of safety of the aircraft operation.
The condition of the specified runway is not suitable for landing or take-off.
The tail wind component, including gusts, exceeds 5 KT.
The cross wind component, including gusts, exceeds 15 KT.
When the possibility exists that orderly flow of traffic may be impeded.
For noise abatement purposes, pilots are encouraged to limit Auxiliary Power Units (APU) use to the minimum time necessary. The maximum recommended APU run-time is (30) minutes.
The use of reverse thrust may negatively impact the residential community surrounding the Samui Airport , particularly during night hours. The use of minimum reverse thrust necessary for safety is recommended consistent with runway conditions and available length.
Under the Environmental Protection (Aircraft Noise) Regulations, international and domestic aircraft operating to/from Samui Airport are required to be certified as compliant with the relevant ICAO Annex 16 Volume I, Aircraft Noise.
Subsonic jets must be certified as Chapter 3 or Chapter 4.
Aircraft with Chapter 2 noise certification are not permitted to operate.
The operations to flights which will be operated by subsonic jet aircraft that meet the Chapter 3 standards by a cumulative margin of not more than 5 EPNdB (Marginally Compliant Chapter 3 (MCC3) Aircraft) will be prohibited for take-off and landing at Samui Airport between 1100 UTC and 2359 UTC.
MCC3 aircraft operated for emergency, medical and humanitarian purposes are exempted from the above restriction.
All arriving turbo-propeller and turbo-jet aircraft when flying below 10000 FT AMSL are subject to fly not faster than indicated air speed 250 knots unless authorized by ATC.
Speed will be reduced to 220 knots during 20-25 track miles from touchdown.
180 knots at Intermediate fix (Including aircraft from RNAV STAR), or shortly before closing heading to intercept or to establish the final course,
150 to 160 knots at FAP or FAF; all speed to be flown as accurately as possible. At the other times, speed control may be applied on a tactical basis to extent determined by ATC.
Pilots who unable to comply with the speed limits specifics above for reasons of flight safety and/or weather conditions should inform ATC and state the speed acceptable.
ATC will notify that the aircraft may keep its preferred speed without restriction and will use the phrase “NO SPEED RESTRICTIONS”. An instruction to notify that the aircraft need no longer comply with the previous issued speed restriction, the phrase “RESUME NORMAL SPEED” will be used.
All aircraft navigating under conditions of RNAV STARs shall conform to speed limitation as published then at IF pilot shall comply with speed control procedures unless otherwise instructed by ATC.
If the pilots do not comply, the flight shall follow ATC instruction for re-sequencing.
NOTE - an instruction to “RESUME NORMAL SPEED” does not cancel speed restrictions that applicable to published procedure of upcoming segments of flight, aircraft shall comply speed restrictions specified in a) b) c) and d)
