EVLA AD 2.22   FLIGHT PROCEDURES

1.   PROCEDURES FOR VFR FLIGHTS

Aircraft shall adhere to the procedures stipulated in ENR 1.1.

1.1   Procedures for VFR flights within Liepaja TMA
1.1.1  The pilot-in-command shall request entry clearance to TMA in advance.
1.1.2  Actual entry clearance will be issued by Liepaja TWR.
1.2   Procedures for VFR flights within Liepaja CTR
1.2.1  Inbound traffic normally shall be planned via following CTR entry point as below: SKEDE, TILTI, EZERI as published on chart AD-2-EVLA-24-1.
1.2.2  CTR entry clearance shall be received from the TWR air traffic controller in advance.
1.2.3  From uncontrolled airspace entry altitude shall not be higher than 1500 ft.
1.2.4  Transit flights via CTR should be planned from South to North or from North to South via CTR entry points. The route of the flight is authorised by the TWR controller.
2.   PROCEDURES WITHIN LIEPAJA TMA/CTR OUTSIDE LIEPAJA TWR OPERATIONAL HOURS
2.1  IFR flights in Liepaja CTR are operated only within Liepaja TWR/AD operational hours.
2.2  The pilot -in -command operating a VFR flight with the intentions to land at Liepaja AD outside Liepaja TWR operational hours has to make sure that Liepaja TWR is out of operation in the following way :
  • during pre-flight briefing :
    consult Riga Briefing (phone +371 6 7300 642; back-up phone +371 6 7783 761) or Riga FMP (phone +371 6 7300 697) or Liepaja TWR (phone +371 63484100) within its operational hours;
  • in flight by calling corresponding Riga ACC sector (135.100 MHz-sector North,134.750 MHz-sector South) or Riga APP (129.925 MHz) on duty frequency;
  • before crossing the established Liepaja TMA/CTR borders to make a preliminary call and monitor Liepaja TWR frequency. Unsuccessful call cannot be interpreted that Liepaja TWR is out of operation.
2.3  Liepaja TWR frequency 129.400 MHz, outside TWR operational hours, for VFR flights to, from and at Liepaja aerodrome, may be used as a common traffic advisory frequency (CTAF) by pilots for self-announcing of their positions and intentions in the blind or for air-to-air communications.
2.4  If Liepaja TWR is out of operation pilots have to transmit blind on 129.400 MHz the following information:
  • Inbound traffic:
    call sign, altitude, intentions, place of crossing established CTR boundary prior to entering;
    RWY to be used for landing;
    entering traffic pattern and altitude (downwind, base legs and final) ;
    vacating the RWY.
  • Outbound traffic:
    intentions for departure;RWY to be used for take-off;
    intended flight direction and altitude.

Example of self-announcing for inbound traffic:

YLCCF, entering Liepaja CTR from the east at 1000 feet, landing Liepaja RWY 24
YLLCF, entering base RWY 24, altitude 1000 feet, Liepaja
YLLCF, landing Liepaja, RWY vacated

Example of self-announcing for outbound traffic:
YLLCF, departing Liepaja RWY 24 to the North, climbing 1000 feet
