GREECE AD 2-LGKV-VFR

KAVALA VFR ROUTES (LGKV)

1. Aircraft flying under VFR within KAVALA TMA should follow VFR routes and altitudes as depicted on this chart, unless VFR crit eria require
otherwise or a special authorization is obtained from appropriate ATC unit.
2. Access to KAVALA TMA is restricted to aircraft capable of maintaining two-way radio communication with MEGAS ALEXANDROS Tower
(freq. 118.400 MHz) or KAVALA approach (freq. 124.650 MHz).
3. Should air traffic conditions require, ATC may assign different VFR routes. Also when deemed necessary, by the pilots to deviate from
specified routes and/or altitudes due to weather conditions, they should communicate with MEGAS ALEXANDROS Tower (freq. 118.400
MHz) or KAVALA Approach (freq. 124.650 MHz) prior entering, or immediately after departure, to obtain clearance for deviation.
4. Positions reports must be given to the appropriate ATC unit when over compulsory reporting points, as depicted on this chart.
5. A continuous watch must be maintained on the appropriate frequency with MEGAS ALEXANDROS Tower (freq. 118.400 MHz) or KAVALA
Approach (freq. 124.650 MHz), when flying within KAVALA TMA.
6. Cancellation of IFR flight plan within KAVALA TMA is subject to ATC approval and after the cancellation the VFR routes and altitudes
should be followed.
7. Unless otherwise instructed by the appropriate ATC unit, all VFR flights shall squawk A7000.
8. It is reminded that on VFR Routes the responsibility to avoid collision with other aircraft and maintenance of terrain clearance rests with the
pilots.
9. To assist KAVALA/MEGAS ALEXANDROS Airport to arrange a landing sequence of VFR arriving aircraft and facilitate the aerodrome
traffic, six visual holding patterns have been established as depicted on this chart:

(a) NORTH ORBIT at PONTO, East-West direction, altitude 2000 ft, or as otherwise instructed by MEGAS ALEXANDROS Tower.
(b) SOUTH EAST ORBIT at KERAMOTI, East-West direction, altitude 1000 ft, or as otherwise instructed by MEGAS ALEXANDROS
Tower.
(c) EAST ORBIT at FANARI, North-South direction, altitude 2000 ft, or as otherwise instructed by MEGAS ALEXANDROS Tower.
(d) SOUTH ORBIT at KINIRA ISLAND, North-South direction, altitude 3000 ft, or as otherwise instructed by MEGAS ALEXANDROS
Tower.
(e) WEST ORBIT at KAVALA, East-West direction, altitude 2000 ft, or as otherwise instructed by MEGAS ALEXANDROS Tower.
(f) SOUTH WEST ORBIT at LOUTRA, East-West direction, altitude 3000 ft, or as otherwise instructed by MEGAS ALEXANDROS Tower.
10. Aircraft destined to KAVALA/MEGAS ALEXANDROS Airport should hold over PONTO/KERAMOTI points and should not proceed to the
airport before establishing contact with MEGAS ALEXANDROS Tower (freq. 118.400 MHz) and receiving the relevant clearance.
