===Helicopter Departure and Arrival Procedures 直升機起降程序===
====DEPARTURE FROM GFS/BAC TO PAK MONG OR SILVERMINE 從飛行服務隊 / 商用航空中心出發到白芒或銀礦灣=====
* Kilo East Departure Subject to ATC approval and when traffic permits, lift off from TWY K in an easterly direction, then turn south between TWY Z3 and the Fire Station to follow the airport coastline until abeam the western roundabout on Chun Wan Road
* For departure in other directions Turn south as soon as practicable after lift off and track along the airport coastline until abeam the western roundabout on Chun Wan Road.

====Helicopter Runway Crossing Procedures 直升機跑道穿越程序直升機跑道橫越程序====* Helicopters shall cross the runways via one of the two Runway Crossing Corridors - Runway 25 Crossing Corridor at the eastern boundary of the airport and Runway 07 Crossing Corridor at the western boundary of the airport. Helicopters are not normally permitted to cross over the airport. During parallel runway operations helicopters are not permitted to hold between the runways.* Runway 25 Crossing Corridor is a direct track between Holding Point ECHO and Abeam Cathay City, passing over RWY 25L/25R approach lights and east of Sky City.* Runway 07 Crossing Corridor is a corridor between Holding Point WHISKEY and Sha Lo Wan, passing over RWY 07L approach lights, west of HAECO hangar and immediately west of RWY 07R threshold. Helicopters overflying the airport should use the eastern part of the corridor and helicopters approaching or departing the airport should use the western part of the corridor.* The recommended altitude for the Runway Crossing Corridors is 800 ft AMSL for wake turbulence avoidance. Runway 07 Crossing Corridor is wide enough to permit helicopters approaching or departing the airport to manoeuvre and cross above the glidepath profile of landing traffic.* ATC will normally issue a conditional crossing clearance with specific instructions to cross behind landing traffic. Pilots should be aware that there is normally a 5 mile spacing between arrivals. Once the relevant traffic has been visually identified, pilots should adjust their speed and track to ensure the crossing is completed with the minimum of delay after the landing aircraft has passed. Holding between the two runways is not permitted.* Because of the extra distance involved when crossing the north runway from the southern holding points, or crossing the south runway from the northern holding points, once a pilot has received a conditional crossing clearance and the relevant landing traffic has been positively identified, the helicopter may depart the holding point and position to cross behind the landing aircraft, but under no circumstances shall it proceed beyond the centreline of the airport until the landing aircraft has passed the applicable Crossing Corridor. (The centreline of the airport is taken as the spine of the Passenger Terminal Building and the north side of the HAECO hangar.)* Pilots unable to comply with these procedures, e.g. when operating with underslung loads, should provide adequate prior notification to ATC to facilitate alternative plans.
