1 PROCEDURES FOR VFR FLIGHTS

 
1.1. List of VFR navigation points used for arrivals/ departures to/from aerodrome:
 

1.2 Arrivals and departures to/from aerodrome

Air traffic operations carried out from Depułtycze Królewskie (EPCD) aerodrome shall be conducted beyond the compact built-up of Chełm. In case, when it is necessary to conduct departure/arrival over Chełm, the flight shall be carried out at height not lower than 2000 ft (600 m) AGL, and then the flight level shall be lowered to the height of the aerodrome traffic circuit.
Departures from Depułtycze Królewskie (EPCD) aerodrome are to be conducted at a height of 2000 ft (600 m) AGL to area limit. Arrivals to aerodrome are to be conducted at a height of 2500 ft (760 m) AGL, then lower the flight within aerodrome traffic circuit. During the activity time of MRT145 arrival/departure heights increase by 500 ft (150 m).
Arrival from south-west directions to WHISKEY point requires agreement with the operator of EPTR152 area (GND - FL085) during the hours of its activity.
The above-mentioned restrictions shall not apply to rescue services (HEMS, Border Guard, Police, etc.) providing the flights are performed in accordance with the applicable regulations.

1.3 Aerodrome traffic circuit

1.3.1. Circuit directions:
Aeroplanes: aerodrome traffic circuit on the east side of the aerodrome. 
Non-powered aircraft: aerodrome traffic circuit on the west side of the aerodrome.
Helicopters carrying out approach to FATO/TLOF: aerodrome traffic circuit on the west side of the aerodrome if aeroplane flights are performed parallelly on RWY 18L/36R. Aerodrome traffic circuit on the east side of the aerodrome applies otherwise, in the same manner as for the aeroplanes.
Due to the distance between RWY 18L/36R centre line and approach path to the FATO/TLOF, parallel flight operations are allowed to be conducted by aeroplanes and helicopters of parameters not exceeding: 
  • aeroplanes: 15 m (wingspan),
  • helicopters: 13.5 m (D - the largest dimension).


Due to a short distance between RWY 18L/36R centre line and RWY 18R/36L centre line, parallel aircraft operations are not allowed.
1.3.2. Circuits patterns:
A four-turn aerodrome traffic circuit east of the aerodrome is recommended as the main circuit. The altitude of the circuit shall be 1700 ft (520 m) AMSL/1000 ft (300 m) AGL.
A four-turn aerodrome traffic circuit west of the aerodrome is not recommended by the Director of Flights for noise abatement purposes. The altitude of the circuit shall be 1700 ft (520 m) AMSL/1000 ft (300 m) AGL. 
A two-turn aerodrome traffic circuit at an altitude of 1200 ft (370 m) AMSL/500 ft (150 m) AGL is recommended east of the aerodrome only for noise abatement purposes.

RWYs characteristic
RWY 18L/36R: 1020 x 30 m, PCN 12F/B/W/T, ASPH; RWY, threshold/end, edge lights, PAPI 3°.
RWY 18R/36L: 800 x 50 m, grass, 5700 kg MTOW.
FATO/TLOF RWY 18/36: 38 x 38 m / 17 x 17 m.
HAPI 18: 4.5°, helicopter approach path indicator lighting system 90 m long on THR 18 with a stop bar situated 90 m from FATO edge.
The RWY 36R and 18L, TWYs A, B, C, D, FATO/TLOF and HAPI lighting is switched on manually by the Director of Flights or from the air.
The Director of Flights can change, at the request of the pilot-in-command, the intensity of the RWYs 36R and 18L, TWYs A, B, C, D, FATO/TLOF and HAPI lighting.
