Contingency Procedures
When radar control service cannot be provided due to Outage of Radar,etc, or when it is advised by pilot
that he/she cannot continue flying on RNAV1 route due to any discrepancy in RNAV equipment, outage of
Critical DME, ATC shall make coordination with related ATC organization, and take the following action:
To aircraft in pre-flight phase, inform that flying on RNAV1 route cannot be cleared, and issue clearance
for an alternate route determined as a result of coordination with other ATC organizations concerned.
〔e.g. 〕 Unable to issue MORIYA ONE RNAV DEPARTURE due to outage of ASR.
Expect to issue MORIYA NINE DEPARTURE, stand by for the clearance.
To aircraft in flight, issue clearance for flying on an alternate route using adjacent NAVAID.
ATC: UAL001, roger, recleared direct TLE VOR, hold north, maintain 9,000ft.
It is to be informed by a pilot as such in case he/she cannot fly RNAV1 route for any reason.

When radar control service cannot be provided due to Outage of Radar,etc, or when it is advised by pilot
that he/she cannot continue flying on RNAV5 route due to any discrepancy in RNAV equipment, outage of
Critical DME, ATC shall make coordination with related ATC organization, and take the following action:
To aircraft in pre-flight phase, inform that flying on RNAV5 route cannot be cleared, and issue
clearance for an alternate route determined as a result of coordination with other ATC organizations
concerned.
To aircraft in flight, issue clearance for flying on an alternate route using adjacent NAVAID.

Figure 1 below shows that aircraft may overshoot to infringe “AREA 1” upon being instructed “direct to
BRAVO (Fly-by waypoint)” since distance to BRAVO is not enough and since the turn angle to the next leg is
large.
Figure 2 indicates such case that the aircraft is instructed to “direct to BRAVO” with an angle less than 45 deg
and with distance longer than 6NM (9NM for an altitude at or above 10,000ft) for smooth turn. Therefore,
upon vectoring aircraft on RNAV routes/procedures, ATC must estimate the aircraft track and issue such an
appropriate instruction to the pilot that aircraft should not make such overshoot.

Requirement for flying over DME GAP (1/2)
✈ Aircraft equipped with INS, IRS, GNSS or VOR/DME RNAV can fly over DME GAP if any VOR/DME
exists within 75NM from the DME GAP that can be used for position update.
It is assumed that RNAV using V/D within 75NM can satisfy navigation accuracy for RNAV5.
Even for DME GAP, the same area is constructed as for the segment without DME GAP.
Noted as “INS, IRS, GNSS or VOR/DME required” in AIP.
✈ Aircraft equipped with INS, IRS or GNSS can fly over DME GAP even if no
VOR/DME exists within 75NM from the DME GAP that can be used for position update.
The DM E GAP must be within the coverage of some other Navaid so that navigation can be achieved
by the Navaid in case of contingency when using GNSS.
Even for DME GAP, the same area is constructed as for the segment without DME GAP.
Noted as “INS, IRS or GNSS required” in AIP.
✈ When none of the above is the case, Dead Reckoning is permitted without obliging any requirement for sensors.
•For a while, it is not allowed for aircraft which meet RNAV navigation requirements only with
DME/DME (without INS, IRS or GNSS) to fly on DME Gap, although technically possible.

DA / DH Decision Altitude / Decision Height
A specified altitude or height in the precision approach or approach with vertical guidance at which a missed
approach must be initiated if the required visual reference to continue the approach has not been established.
Note 1.— Decision altitude (DA) is referenced to mean sea level and decision height (DH) is referenced to the
threshold elevation.
Note 2.— The required visual reference means that section of the visual aids or of the approach area which should
have been in view for sufficient time for the pilot to have made an assessment of the aircraft position and rate of
change of position, in relation to the desired flight path. In Category III operations with a decision height the
required visual reference is that specified for the particular procedure and operation.
Note 3.— For convenience where both expressions are used they may be written in the form “decision
altitude/height” and abbreviated “DA/H”.

IAP Instrument Approach Procedure
A series of predetermined maneuvers by reference to flight instruments with specified protection from obstacles from
the initial approach fix, or where applicable, from the beginning of a defined arrival route to a point from which a
landing can be completed and thereafter, if a landing is not completed, to a position at which holding or en-route
obstacle clearance criteria apply. Instrument approach procedures are classified as follows.
Note.- Lateral and vertical guidance refers to the guidance provided either by:
a) a ground-based navigation aids; or
b) computer generated navigation data.

Note 1.- Minimum descent altitude (MDA) is referenced to mean sea level and minimum descent height (MDH) is
referenced to the aerodrome elevation or to the threshold elevation if that is more than 2m(7ft) below the
aerodrome elevation. A minimum descent height for a circling approach is referenced to the aerodrome elevation.
Note 2.- The required visual reference means that section of the visual aids or of the approach area which should
have been in view for sufficient time for the pilot to have made an assessment of the aircraft position and rate of
change of position, in relation to the desired flight path. In case of a circling approach the required visual
reference is the runway environment.
Note 3.- For convenience when both expressions are used they may be written in the form “minimum descent
altitude/height”and abbreviated “MDA/H”.

O
OCA / OCH Obstacle Clearance Altitude / Obstacle Clearance Height
The lowest altitude or the lowest height above the elevation of the relevant runway threshold or the aerodrome
elevation as applicable, used in establishing compliance with appropriate obstacle clearance criteria.
Note 1.- Obstacle clearance altitude is referenced to mean sea level and obstacle clearance height is referenced to the
threshold elevation or in the case of non-precision approaches to the aerodrome elevation or the threshold elevation if
that is more than 2m(7ft) below the aerodrome elevation. An obstacle clearance height for a circling approach is
referenced to the aerodrome elevation.
Note 2.- For convenience when both expressions are used they may be written in the form “obstacle clearance
altitude/height” and abbreviated “OCA/H”.

P
Path and Path and Terminator
Terminator 2-letter alphabetical code to define the type of leg used in terminal procedures (Departure/Arrival/Approach
procedure). It is used to encode the flight procedures into such format that can be read by airborne navigation system.
The first letter indicate “path” (mode of flight), and the second one indicates “terminator” (way of termination of the
leg).

R
RAIM Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring
A form of ABAS whereby a GNSS receiver processor determines the integrity of the GNSS navigation signals using
only GPS signals or GPS signals augmented with altitude (baro aiding). This determination is achieved by a
consistency check among redundant pseudo-range measurements. At least one additional satellite needs to be
available with the correct geometry over and above that needed for the position estimation for the receiver to perform
the RAIM function.
RNAV 5 Navigation with navigation specification including the lateral total system error within +/- 5 NM for at lease of 95 %
of the flight time, and other over navigation performance / functionality requirements.

Waypoint Waypoint
A specified geographical location used to define an area navigation route or the flight path of an aircraft employing
area navigation. Waypoints are identified as either.
Fly-by waypoint. A waypoint which requires turn anticipation to allow tangential interception of the next
segment of a route or procedure, or
Flyover waypoint A waypoint at which a turn is initiated in order to join the next segment of a route or
procedure.
