Minimum Requirements to Conduct Rwy 22 LAHSO
FAA Order 7110.65S
Para. 3-10-4 Intersecting Rwy Separation
1. LAHSO (RY22) will only be conducted in VFR conditions (1,400/4).
2. Instruct the aircraft landing on Rwy 22 to hold short of K Taxiway for
traffic landing Rwy 17.
3. Issue traffic information to both aircraft involved and obtain an
acknowledgment from each. Request a read back of hold short
instructions when they are not received from the pilot of the restricted
aircraft.
4. Issue the measured distance from the landing threshold to the hold
short point rounded down to the nearest 50-foot increment if requested
by either aircraft (8,550 feet available).
5. Conditions of 2, 3, and 4 shall be met in sufficient time for the pilots to
take other action (normally when landing clearance is issued).
MSP Runway Construction Procedures Federal Aviation 8
Summer 2009 Administration
6. Land and Hold short runways must be free of any
contamination, with no reports that braking action is less
than good.
7. There is no tailwind for the landing aircraft restricted to
hold short of the intersection. The wind may be
described as “calm” when appropriate.
8. The aircraft required landing distances are listed in the
current LAHSO directive.
9. LAHSO lighting in place and operational.

MSP Facility Initiatives
10. 1,400/4 will be the weather minimum for this operation.
11. No heavy aircraft will be asked to hold short (Except
B753)
12. Military aircraft will participate in a passive role only.
13. A“Local Assist” shall be in place for moderate or
greater traffic during Runway 17/22 operations. As a
general rule CCN main responsibility will be the “Assist”
for LCN to coordinate with GC’s for runway crossings
between the parallels (while monitoring LCN). CCS main
responsibility will be the “Assist” for LCS to put 2 aircraft
in position at one time on 12R.

Runway 22 between the parallels without
coordination from the Runway 22 Local
Controller.
• LCA shall not approve a RWY22 crossing in
front of a departure holding in position or in
front of RWY22 traffic at a 1 mile final or
less without coordinating with the Local

• Normal Runway 22 crossing points:


– Main terminal: P, Q, C6/M6, A, B
– Humphrey terminal: S

• When LCA is open, all runway crossings of

Arrival Distance Window
• Arrival Distance Window (ADW)
– A tool used by the tower to determine when a departure on
Runway 30L may be released so as to reduce the likelihood of
a collision at the convergence of Runway 35 and 30L, IF the
Runway 35 arrival executes a go around.
– Runway 30L departure may be released until Runway 35
arrival ENTERS the ADW (1.9 NM final).
– In this case, the departure will cross the convergence point
approximately 15 seconds ahead of an arrival that executes a
go around on Runway 35.
