Airspace

AYPYA is responsible for the Class C Airspace within the AYPY CTR A020 to A150.

Airspace SFC to BCTA is considered Class F. Refer to the PNG Local instructions for more information about Class F operations.

Local Procedures

Daugo Training Area

The AYD901 (Daugo) Danger Area is in the south-west AYPY CTR, SFC to A040, and is used for flight training and practice approaches.

When activated, the airspace is administered by AYPYA. Aircraft will be cleared to enter the Training Area via the GPS Approach and advised to report overhead DGOWH after conducting the mandatory missed approach.

Terrain

Very high terrain exists to the North-East of the field, with the MVA up to F155. Use caution when vectoring, and ensure that terrain separation is maintained at all times.

Tip

The biggest risk to terrain separation is vectoring in the north and east (Potential conflict areas are shaded below). Avoid vectoring in these areas, and do not assign below A060 until aircraft are within 30nm of the field.

Runway Modes

Parallel Runway Operations

Simultaneous parallel runway operations, including PROPS and SODROPS, are not authorised at AYPY. Arrivals for parallel runways should be sequenced so that their approaches are not simultaneous and separation is maintained.

Coordination

Enroute

Departures

Voiceless for aircraft:

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

Note

^Aircraft are not required to be tracking via the SID procedure, simply tracking via any of the terminus waypoints (Regardless of departure airport or assigned SID) is sufficient to meet the criteria for voiceless coordination

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.

AYPY ADC

Airspace

AYPY ADC is responsible for the Class C Airspace within the AYPY CTR SFC to A020.

Auto Release

'Next' coordination is not required from AYPY ADC for aircraft that are:

Departing from a runway nominated on the ATIS; and
Assigned the standard assignable level; and
Assigned a Procedural SID.

All other aircraft require a 'Next' call to AYPYA.

Aircraft	Level
All	The lower of `A050` and `RFL`

Overfliers

AYPYA will heads-up coordinate arrivals/overfliers from AYPYA to AYPY ADC prior to 5 mins from the boundary. VFR aircraft require a level readback.
