• Cruise Level at or below FL270

GENERAL

AIRPORT

• ELEVATION 28 FT AMSL
• OPERATING HOURS H24 UTC+8

* RWY 07L/25R closed 1730-2359 U every Tue, Wed and Sat.
* RWY 07R/25L closed 1730-2359 U every Mon, Thu, Fri and Sun.

ARRIVALS

EXPECTED RUNWAY

• PAX ACFT: RWY 07L / 25R
• FRTR ACFT: RWY 07R / 25L

ARRIVALS

• RWY 07L / R: appropriate speed and configuration prior to LOC intercept is strongly recommended, especially in IMC, as the short final segment on the ILS will result in a high and unacceptable rate of descent during the final approach.
• RWY 07R / 25L: ATC will allocate PAX ACFT this runway when operations permit. Do not request unless operationally essential.
• SPEED AND ALTITUDE RESTRICTIONS:

* MANDATORY: may be identified on the STAR chart by a 'dialogue box' adjacent to the waypoint. Speed and/or altitude restrictions shall always be complied with as published unless restrictions are specifically cancelled by ATC or the SID/STAR is cancelled by, for instance, assignment of a radar heading.

* FURTHER DESCENT: after complying with the published mandatory restrictions (e.g. MUSEL 280 KTS/FL130), ATC may impose further (unpublished) descent requirements, (e.g. "Reach FL110 by TD"), which are subsequently amended, (e.g. "Descend to 8,000 FT, QNH 1012") without specifying a requirement to comply with the previous restriction. This new descent clearance implies an unrestricted descent.

CAUTION

• TERRAIN: within 10 NM to the north and south up to 3,280 FT. 25 NM TD VOR MSA is 4,300 FT.
• WINDSHEAR AND TURBULENCE: possible on all RWYs with strong wind due local terrain and adjacent buildings.
• [RWY 07R/25L: Possible GS fluctuations due interference by taxiing aircraft. ATC will advise by ATIS. RNAV (RNP) approach may be requested for approved aircraft and qualified crew.]
• RWY 07R / 25L AUTOLAND: PIREPS indicate LOC signal integrity during rollout is subject to distortion. Disconnect autopilot after nosewheel touchdown.

NOISE ABATEMENT

• BTW 2301 to 0700 LT: official noise abatement imposed. RWY 07 preferred, wind conditions permitting.

SPEED CONTROL

• MAX 250 KTS at or below 10,000 FT.
• STAR RESTRICTIONS: mandatory. Refer to Nav Chart.

ALTERNATES

• PRIMARY ALTERNATE: Macao (VMMC/MFM) for all aircraft types up to B747-8. Macao will be used when the weather conditions permit approaches to RWY 34. If the weather forecast indicates only MFM RWY 16 would be available then another alternate should be selected.

DEPARTURES

PREFLIGHT

• DEPARTURE VIA BEKOL: contact HKG Delivery 15 minutes prior to pushback to ascertain possible Flow Control delays and restrictions. Expect to cross BEKOL at 4800 M (FL157) or above. Heavy weight departures RWY 07 will be unable to achieve 4800 M (FL157) by BEKOL. Advise Delivery if unable 4800 M by BEKOL and request additional track miles. Airspace after BEKOL has been reclassified and the minimum available level is 4800 M with Guangzhou Control.
• DEPARTURES TO ZSPD AND ZBAA: contact Delivery to ascertain current delays and restrictions.

ATC COMMUNICATIONS

• [DATA LINK PDC: request at STD – 20 minutes. PDC must be accepted within 5 minutes of receipt.]

EXPECTED RUNWAY

• RWY 07R / 25L

DEPARTURE

• TERMINAL TRANSITION ROUTES: V1 to V5 and V10 to V12 form the initial part of the route.

CAUTION

• TERRAIN: within 10 NM to the north and south up to 3,280 FT. 25 NM TD VOR MSA is 4,300 FT.
• WINDSHEAR: possible when the surface wind is in the sector 100 to 220 degrees.

NOISE ABATEMENT

• RWY 07 L / R: standard.
• BTW 2301 to 0700 LT: unofficial noise abatement imposed. RWY 07 preferred, wind conditions permitting.

SPEED CONTROL

• MAX 250 KTS at or below 10,000 FT.
• SID RESTRICTIONS: mandatory. Refer to Nav Chart.
• CANCEL SPEED CONTROL: immediate acceleration is available at any point on the departure after ATC cancel speed control. ATC will already have calculated that the aircraft will remain within the departure terrain safety area with allowances for climb performance, wind and higher departure speed.

FIR RESTRICTIONS

• PLANNED CLIMB SPEED ON TRANSITION M0.78 OR LESS: advise HKG RDR for traffic separation planning.
• CRUISING LEVEL: to ensure efficient coordination with adjacent ATC units, all departing aircraft are required to reach assigned cruising levels at or before the specified reporting points. Refer DEPARTURE Transition charts. Failure to reach assigned levels may result in the loss of standard separation. Inform ATC as soon as possible if unable so an alternative clearance can be coordinated.
• VIA DOTMI: northbound departures can expect the following assigned cruising levels with a requirement to reach by SOUSA:

* To Xiamen: 6900 M (FL226) or 7500 M (FL246)
* To Shanghai: FL330 or FL410. Ensure ATC are advised early if extra track miles are required.
