3. Cairns (YBCS)

Airspace Division

Standard airspace division will be in use as per CS TCU Local Instructions.

CS1 will handle all departures regardless of duty runway.

CS2 will handle all arrivals from the south and west. CS1 has No Restrictions or Requirements for aircraft cleared via the CODIE STAR to Runway 15.

Runway 33 Departures

Departures from Runway 33 will call CS1 on an assigned heading of H040 assigned A060. These aircraft should be climbed above the MVA/MSA and then cleared direct to AKROM when suitable.

Runway 15 Arrivals

Event aircraft will be cleared the CODIE1A STAR, OVLET transition. They should be cleared for the ILS approach and transfered to ADC by CS2.

Runway 33 Arrivals

Event aircraft will be cleared the HENDO2A STAR, OVLET transition. They will be processed via the LOC approach.

Flow

Ensure that event traffic gets priority over non-event traffic.

Important

It is likely that during the event, there will be no opportunity for non-event traffic to be sequenced for a landing at YBCS. Flow should determine whether an approach slot is available and inform the appropriate enroute controller if a diversion to another aerodrome is necessary.

Speeds

KEN will instruct all arrivals to cross OVLET at 250 knots, then published STAR speeds.

WorldFlight Teams

WorldFlight Teams will be highlighted by default and should receive priority at all stages of flight.
