- Chapter 4. Air Traffic Control › Section 1. Services Available to Pilots › 4-1-19. Tower En Route Control (TEC)
When a major metropolitan airport is incurring significant delays, pilots in the TEC program may want to consider an alternative airport experiencing no delay. c. There are no unique requirements upon pilots to use the TEC program. Normal flight plan ... maximum TEC altitude of 10,000 feet. IFR flight may be planned to any satellite airport in proximity to the major primary airport via the same routing…

Turn off all unnecessary electrical items, such as duplicate ... electrical power for the primary six-pack instrumentation. Modern EFDs utilize the electrical system to power the Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS), air data computer (ADC), engine indicating system (EIS), etc. A loss of an alternator or generator was considered…

finally pilot and ATC responsibilities. d. Why are DPs necessary? The primary reason is to provide obstacle clearance protection information to pilots. A secondary reason, at busier airports, is to increase efficiency and reduce communications and departure delays through ... SIDs. When an instrument approach is initially developed for an airport, the need for DPs is assessed. The procedure designer conducts an obstacle analysis to support departure operations. If an aircraft may turn in any direction from a runway within…

such as when the primary missed approach NAVAID fails during the approach. Pilots may reject an ATC clearance for an alternate missed approach that requires equipment not necessary for the published approach procedure when the alternate missed approach is issued ... However, when the alternate missed approach is issued prior to beginning the approach the pilot must either accept the entire procedure (including the alternate missed approach), request a different approach procedure, or coordinate with ATC for alternative action…

minimums that are even lower. Non-precision approach alternatives cannot begin to offer the precision or flexibility offered by an ILS. In order to further increase the approach capacity of busy airports and exploit the maximum potential of ILS technology ... single runway. Two or three parallel runways operating independently can double or triple the capacity of the airport. For air commerce, this means greater flexibility in scheduling passenger and cargo service. Capacity is increased through the use of simultaneous…
