Enroute

Positions

Airspace

Airspace SFC to BCTA is considered Class F.

Refer to the PNG Local instructions for more information about Class F operations.

Reclassifications

AYNZ ADC

When AYNZ ADC is offline, AYNZ CTR (Class C SFC to A060) is reclassified as Class F, and is administed by AYPM. Alternatively, AYPM may provide a top-down procedural service if they wish.

Class F Aerodromes

When AYGA ADC, AYMD ADC, AYMH ADC, AYTK ADC are offline, the ATZ's of their respective aerodromes are inactive. The airspace remains Class F.

CPDLC

The Primary Communication Method for AYPM west of 150°E is Voice, east of 150°E is CPDLC.

The CPDLC Station code is AYPM.

Both CPDLC or Voice may be used in lieu when applicable.

Surveillance Coverage

Limited surveillance coverage exists throughout the entire sector at lower levels, and beyond 200NM AYPY. Procedural Standards must be implemented prior to losing surveillance coverage.

STAR Clearances

AYPM is responsible for issuing STAR clearances for all aicraft inbound to AYPY. Aircraft shall be given STAR Clearance after first being advised "STAR CLEARANCE AVAILABLE".

Coordination

AYPY TCU

Airspace

The vertical limits of the AYPY TCU are SFC–A150.

Departures

Voiceless for aircraft:

• Tracking via a Procedural SID terminus^; and
• Assigned the lower of A150 or the RFL.

All other aircraft going to AYPM CTA must be Heads-up Coordinated by AYPYA prior to the boundary.

Arrivals

Voiceless coordination for all aircraft:

• With ADES AYPY; and
• Assigned a STAR; and
• Assigned A140

All other aircraft coming from AYPM CTA must be Heads-up coordinated to AYPYA.

AYNZ TCU

Airspace

The vertical limits of the AYNZ TCU are SFC–F245. AYNZ ADC is responsible for the Class C Airspace within the AYNZ CTR SFC to A060.

Refer to Reclassifications for operations when AYNZ ADC is offline.

Departures

All aircraft going to AYPM CTA must be Heads-up Coordinated by AYNZA prior to the boundary.

The Standard Assignable Level from AYNZA to AYPM is:

Arrivals

AYPM will heads-up coordinate all arrivals/overfliers to AYNZA.

The Standard Assignable level from AYPM to AYNZA is F250. Any other level must be prior coordinated.

Class F Aerodromes

Departures and Arrivals

As per Standard coordination procedures, coordination between ADC and AYPM is not required. However, a 5 minute change parameter applies to any aircraft that change level, route, or taxi within 5 minutes of the next sector's airspace.

Overfliers

As per Standard coordination procedures, coordination between ADC and AYPM is not required. However, a 5 minute change parameter applies to any aircraft that change level, route, or taxi within 5 minutes of the next sector's airspace.

IFR aircraft may either be handed off to the ADC frequency by AYPM, or held on the AYPM frequency following coordination if there is no relevant traffic.

International (ISA(ARA)/KEN(WIL))

As per Standard coordination procedures, Voiceless, no changes to route or CFL within 15 mins to boundary.

Pacific Oceanic (TSN(COL)/KZAK)

As per Standard coordination procedures, Voiceless, no changes to route or CFL within 15 mins to boundary.

Aircraft must have their identification terminated and be instructed to make a position report on first contact with the next (procedural) sector.

International (WAAF)

As per Standard coordination procedures, Heads-up Coordination required for all aircraft prior to 30 mins from boundary.
