GEN 3. SERVICES
GEN 3.1 AERONAUTICAL INFORMATION SERVICES
1. Responsible Services
1.1 The Aeronautical Information Service, which from the part of ATS/Aerodrome division of the Civil Aviation
Authority of Bangladesh, ensures the flow of information necessary for the safety, regularity and efficiency of
international and national air navigation within the area of its responsibility as indicated under paragraph 2
below. It consists of AIS Headquarters, International NOTAM Office (NOF) and Aerodrome AIS units (PFIU).
The international NOTAM office is an integral part of the AIS Headquarters and is located at the following
address: -
The service is provided in accordance with the provisions contained in ICAO Annex 15 – Aeronautical
Information Services.
2. Area of Responsibilities
The Aeronautical Information Service is responsible for the collection and dissemination of information for
the entire territory of Bangladesh and for the airspace over the high seas encompassed by the Dhaka Flight
Information Region.
3. Aeronautical Publications
3.1 The aeronautical information is provided in the form of the Integrated Aeronautical Information Package
consisting of the following elements:
The AIP, issued in one volume is the basic information document published for Bangladesh and contains
information of a lasting character essential to air navigation. It is available in English only and is maintained
up to date by an amendment service of reprinted pages and, in case of minor amendments, manuscript
corrections.
Amendments to the AIP together with checklist are made by means of replacement sheets. Two types of AIP
AMDT are produced:
- regular AIP Amendment (AIP AMDT), issued in accordance with the established regular
interval (see GEN 0.1-2 para 3.2 ) and identified by a white cover sheet, incorporates
permanent changes into the AIP on the indicated publication date; and
- AIRAC AIP Amendment (AIRAC AIP AMDT), issued in accordance with the AIRAC system
and identified by a pink cover sheet and the acronym – AIRAC, incorporates
operationally significant permanent changes into the AIP on the indicated AIRAC
effective date.
A brief description of the subjects affected by the amendment is given on the AIP amendment cover sheet.
New information included on the reprinted AIP pages is annotated or identified by a vertical line in the
left/right margin (or immediately to the left/right) of the change/addition.
Each AIP page and each AIP replacement page introduced by an amendment, including the amendment
cover sheet, are dated. The day consists of the day, month (by name) and year of the publication date
(regular AIP AMDT) or of the AIRAC effective date (AIRAC AIP AMDT) of the information.
Each AIP amendment cover sheet includes references to the serial number of those elements, if any, of
Integrated Aeronautical Information Package which have been incorporated in the AIP by the
amendment and are consequently cancelled.
Each AIP AMDT and each AIRAC AIP AMDT are allocated a serial numbers, which is consecutive
and based on the calendar year. The year, indicated by two digits, is a part of the serial number of the
amendment, e.g. AIP AMDT 1/10; AIRAC AIP AMDT 2/10.
A checklist of AIP pages containing page number/chart title and the publication or effective date (day,
month by name and year) of the information is reissued with each amendment and is an integral part of
the AIP.
Temporary changes of long duration (three months and longer) and information of short duration which
consists extensive text and/or graphics, supplementing the permanent information contained in the AIP,
are publish as AIP Supplements (AIP SUP). Operationally significant temporary changes to the AIP are
published in accordance with the AIRAC system and its established effective dates and are identified
clearly by the acronym AIRAC AIP SUP.
AIP supplements are placed at the beginning of the AIP parts. Supplements are published on yellow
paper to be conspicuous and to stand out from the rest of the AIP. Each AIP Supplement (regular or
AIRAC) is allocated a serial number which is consecutive and based on the calendar year, (i.e. AIP
SUP 1/10; AIRAC AIP SUP 2/10; AIP SUP 3/10...)
An AIP supplement is kept in the AIP as long as all or some of its contents remain valid. The period of
validity of the information contained in the AIP Supplement will normally be given in the supplement
itself. Alternatively, NOTAM may be used to indicate to the period of validity or cancellation of the
supplement.
The checklist of AIP Supplements currently in force is issued in the month printed plain language
summary of NOTAM in force.
NOTAM contain information concerning the establishment, condition or change in any aeronautical
facility, service, procedure or hazard, the timely knowledge of which is essential for personnel
concerned with flight operations. The text of each NOTAM contains the information in the order
shown in the ICAO NOTAM Format and composed of the significations/uniform abbreviated
phraseology assigned to the ICAO NOTAM Code complemented by ICAO abbreviations, indicators,
identifiers, designators, call signs, frequencies, figures and plain language. NOTAM are originated and
issued for Dhaka FIR and are distributed in three series identified by letters A, B and C.
Series A – NOTAM containing information of concern to long or medium range flights and given
selected international distribution;
Series B – NOTAM containing full information on all aerodrome/heliports, facilities and procedures
available for use in international civil aviation and given international distribution to adjacent state
only;
Series C - NOTAM containing information of all concern to aircraft other than those engaged in
international civil aviation and given national distribution only;
NOTE: NOTAM Series A and B are combined as NOTAM Series A for the distribution of NOTAM.
NOTAM are published as and when necessary to disseminate information of direct operational
significance which
Each NOTAM is assigned a four digit serial number preceded by an appropriate letter indicating the
series and followed by a stroke and two digits indicating the year of issuance. The serial numbers start
with 0001 at 0000 UTC on 1 January every year.

4. AIRAC System
4.1 In order to control and regulate the operationally significant changes requiring amendments to charts, route-
manuals etc., such changes, whenever possible, will be issued on predetermined dates according to the
AIRAC SYSTEM. This type of information will be published as an AIRAC AIP AMDT or an AIRAC
AIP SUP. If an AIRAC AMDT or SUP cannot be produced due to lack of time, NOTAM clearly marked
AIRAC will be issued. Such NOTAM will immediately be followed by an AMDT or SUP.
4.2 The table below indicates AIRAC effective dates for the coming years. AIRAC information will be issued
so that the information will be received by the user not later than 28 days, and for major changes not later
than 56 days, before the effective date. At AIRAC effective date, a trigger NOTAM will be issued giving
a brief description of the contents, effective date and reference number of the AIRAC AIP AMDT or
AIRAC AIP SUP that will become effective on that date. Trigger NOTAM will remain in force as a
reminder in the PIB until the new checklist/summary is issued.
If no information was submitted for publication at the AIRAC date, a NIL notification will be issued by
NOTAM not later than one AIRAC cycle before the AIRAC effective date concerned.
Schedule of AIRAC effective dates:
Pre-flight Information Bulletins (PIB) – PIB are available from aerodrome AIS units and NOF at HSIA. The
aerodrome AIS unit at HSIA is connected to the central NOTAM data bank. At HSIA, pre-flight information in the

Supplementary Procedures contained in Doc 7030 for MID Asia Region are applicable. Differences are
enumerated in GEN 1.7
4.1.2 The Semi Circular system of Cruising levels is followed in Bangladesh (ENR 1.7-4 and 1.7-5).
4.1.3 Aircraft shall operate along the ATS routes as applicable in accordance with ENR-3 if not otherwise cleared.
4.1.4 The data shown in ENR 1.5 and GEN 3.2.3 charts conform to the following:
4.1.5 Plan & procedure diagrams for holding and approach charts are designed on the basis of the following values.
Note: Pilots are expected to know the current holding, approach & departure procedures (although ATC will
provide this information on request).
4.2.1 Initial approach tracks and holding patterns associated with Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Dhaka;
Shah Amanat International Airport, Chattogram; Osmani International Airport, Sylhet and other domestic
aerodromes are detailed in AD-2 on specific charts prepared for the purpose along with approach procedures.
4.2.2 Holding patterns are race track and the following procedures apply:
4.2.3 Commencement of timing. Outbound timing should start from abeam the fix or on attaining the outbound
heading, whichever comes later.
4.2.4 Outbound timing. The outbound timing should be one minute up to and including 4250 m (14000 ft) and
one and half minutes above 4250 m(14000 ft). However, it may be increased provided the protected airspace
is adjusted in accordance with the principles contained herein. With DME available the outbound timing
may be expressed in terms of distance. Where this is done care should be taken to ensure that at least thirty
seconds should be available on the inbound track after completion of the turn to inbound and that slant range
is taken into account.
The three sector holding pattern entry procedures for entry to the basic holding area of the entry procedures are
as follows:
In Bangladesh h olding over the facilities in different A irports & aerodromes ar e righ t hand pattern u nless
otherwise specified,
Entry Sectors
Right Hand Holding Pattern
(i) Having reached the fix, turn on an outbound heading for the appropriate period of time; then
(ii) Turn left to intercept the inbound track or the fix; then
(iii) On second arrival over the fix turn right and follow the holding pattern
(i) Having reached the fix turn into a heading to make good a track making an angle of 30 deg. or less from
the inbound track on the holding side; then
(ii) Continue for the appropriate period of time; then
(iii) Turn right to intercept the inbound track and follow the holding pattern.
Having reached the fix turns right and follow the holding pattern.
The still air time for flying the outbound entry heading should not exceed one minute if below or at 4250m
(14000ft) or o ne and one half minutes if above 4250m (14000ft). Where DME is ava ilable, the length of the
outbound leg may be specified in terms of distance instead of time.
4.3.5 Aircraft which enter holding patterns at altitude in excess of the altitude prescribed for the c ommencement of
the instrument approach procedure may lose excess of the altitude by descending in the holding pattern as and
when instructed by ATC. Descent may be continued during turns.
4.3.6 At controlled aerodromes (where approach control service is provided) when an expected approach time
(EAT) is specified, the pilot may shorten his holding pattern in order to leave the holding point at that time. If
the EAT is such that prolonged holding is anticipated, the Pilot-in-Command may request that the length of
the holding pattern be increased or may absorb time by other approved means. Where traffic per mits such
request will be granted subject to such conditions as may be specified due to prevailing conditions.
4.3.7 In uncontrolled airspace the Pilot-in-Command may increase the length of the holding pattern if he informs the
FIC of his intention and is able to ensure obstacle clearance to approved standards.
Unless otherwise specified all aircraft will follow the procedures shown in Instrument Approach Charts of
respective aerodrome.
4.3.9 In case of communication failure, pilot shall act in accordance with the communication failure procedures in
ICAO Annex-2.
1. General
1.1 Radar Air Traffic Control Service will be provided in accordance with ICAO Doc 4444/PANS--ATM/(Rules
of the Air and Air Traffic Service) to determine the position of aircraft with the main purpose of expediting
the flow of Air Traffic as well as providing a smoother flight profile to aircraft by employing reduced
horizontal separation standards.
2. Principles of Operations
2.1 The radar unit will operate during the notified hours of operation as an integral part of the parent ATS units
and will provide radar control service to aircraft subject to volume of traffic, limitations of radar controllers
workload, equipment capabilities, communication difficulties, radar coverage and at the discretion of ATC.
The radar controller has complete discretion in determining the extent of services to be provided.
2.2 The identification of each aircraft shall be established and maintained wherever radar separation is applied
between two or more aircraft.
2.3 When exercising radar control, the radar controller has complete freedom to instruct an aircraft to turn in any
direction as dictated by circumstances. A pilot will know when radar services are being provided because the
radar controller will use the following call sign(s): -
2.4 A pilot will be advised when radar service is discontinued or whenever radar identification is lost.
2.5 Radar control will be exercised outside controlled airspace only in respect of aircraft which are intending to
enter or cross controlled airspace.
2.6 Radar assistance will be provided to aircraft flying outside controlled airspace at the request of the pilot. The
extent to which this assistance can be provided will be determined by the radar controller and it should be
borne in mind that the sudden appearance of unknown aircraft on the radar display; the inability of the radar
controller to predict changes of flight paths of these aircraft may prevent or neutralize avoiding action. This
assistance therefore, cannot always guarantee to provide positive separation from unknown aircraft.
2.7 Controlled aircraft should not be vectored into uncontrolled airspace except in case of emergency or in order
to circumnavigate severe weather (in which cases the pilot should be so informed) or at the specific request of
the pilot.
3.1 Within the coverage area of primary radar, separation is 5 (five) nautical miles.
3.2 Outside the coverage area of primary radar but within the coverage of SSR, inside Dhaka FIR the separation is
10 (ten) nautical miles.
3.3 Radar separation will not be applied between aircraft holding over the same navigational aid.
4.1 Inbound aircraft shall contact Dhaka control on 125.7 MHz/126.7 MHz. When radar services is provided, the
aircraft will be asked to change to Dhaka Approach on 121.3 MHz.
4.2 When within the area of Dhaka ACA, inbound aircraft will be hand over to Dhaka Approach on 121.3 MHz.
a) Dhaka Approach will hand over inbound aircraft to Dhaka tower on 118.3 MHz when on final approach
or when field-in-sight for visual approach.
b) Departing aircraft will receive aerodrome information, taxi instruction from Dhaka Ground on
121.8MHz, ATC clearance and departure clearance will receive from Dhaka Tower on 118.3 MHz.
c) Dhaka Tower will advise departing aircraft to contact Dhaka Approach on 121.3 MHz immediately after
departure. Dhaka Approach will hand over departing aircraft to Dhaka Control on 125.7 MHz/126.7
MHz as appropriate when the aircraft is leaving the TMA.
d) Dhaka Tower will issue departure clearance after coordination with Dhaka Approach.
5.1 When considered practicable and operationally necessary surveillance radar approach will be provided and
will be terminated at 2 nautical miles from touch down.
6.1 Departing aircraft shall operate transponders in accordance with instructions given by ATC. Pilots who have
received specific instructions from ATC concerning the setting of the transponder shall maintain that code
setting except in circumstances detailed in paragraphs below. Aircraft bound for Hazrat Shahjalal
International Airport or over flying Dhaka FIR shall transponder on the SSR code last assigned to them by the
adjacent FIR, or if no such code has been previously assigned advise the ATC unit concerned who will
provide the required code.
6.2.1 The ICAO SSR code Assignment system for MID/Asia Region and the Asian part of the USSR is
implemented. The general procedures relating to the system are contained in ICAO DOC – 7030/4.
6.3.1 All SSR transponder equipped aircraft departing from aerodromes within Dhaka FIR operating on IFR flight
plan for Destination outside Bangladesh are to be assigned discrete mode. A codes from the block 4700 to
4777. The codes shall be assigned subsequently by inserting in the flight plan by the ATC unit accepting the
flight plan to each aircraft and to be included in the FPL, DEP, DLA, EST and TNR messages pertaining to
the aircraft.
6.3.2 The code shall cease to be valid when the aircraft lands at the next point of landing or in case of diversion to
an aerodrome.
6.3.3 In the event of such a flight diverting to an aerodrome within the Dhaka FIR the assigned code to be retained
until the aircraft has landed at its new destination. When it would subsequently depart for a destination outside
Dhaka FIR , a new discrete code to be assigned by ATC.
6.3.4 All SSR transponder equipped aircraft departing from any aerodrome within Dhaka FIR operating or IFR
flight plan for Destination inside Bangladesh are to assign discrete mode. A codes from the block 4100 to
4177. The codes shall be assigned subsequently by inserting in the flight plan by the ATC unit accepting the
flight plan to each aircraft and to be included in the FPL, DEP, DLA messages pertaining to the aircraft. The
code shall cease to be valid when the aircraft lands at destination or in case of diversion assigned code to be
retained until the aircraft landed at its new destination (whether within Dhaka FIR or not). Subsequently when
the aircraft depart for its destination. a new discrete code to be assigned by Dhaka ACC in case the new
departure aerodrome is within Dhaka FIR. The code to be obtained by concerned ATC unit on Inter Tower
RTF or telephone. In case no communication with Dhaka ACC the aircraft may be allowed to depart with
instruction to obtain code on first contact with Dhaka Radar or Dhaka approach as appropriate.
7. Emergency Procedure
7.1 If the Pilot of an aircraft encountering a state of emergency has previously been directed by ATC to operate
the transponder on a specific code, this code setting shall be maintained until otherwise advised. In all other
circumstances; the transponder shall be set to mode “A” code “7700”.
8. Failure of Equipment
8.1 RADAR FAILURE : - In the event of radar failure or loss of radar identification, instructions will be issued to
restore non-radar separation and the pilot will be instructed to communicate with the parent ATS unit when
applicable.
a) The radar controller will establish whether the aircraft radio receiver is working by instructing the
pilot to carry out a turn or turns. If the turns are observed, the radar controller will continue to provide
radar services to the aircraft.
b) Where SSR equipment is on board the aircraft the pilot shall set the transponder to mode “A” code
“7600”. The radar controller will instruct the Pilot to operate the special position indicator (SPI) or to
change mode. Where it is determined that the aircraft receiver is functioning the radar controller will
continue to provide radar services to that aircraft.
c) If the aircraft radio is completely unserviceable, the Pilot should carry out the procedures for radio
failure in accordance with ICAO Annex-2. If radar identification has already been established, the
radar controller will vector other identified aircraft clear of its track until such time as the aircraft
leaves radar coverage.
a) The radar controller shall take the necessary action to provide radar services by means of other
available communication.
b) If not possible the radar controller shall request the non-radar controller to take over control of the
traffic affected. The aircraft shall contact Area control/Approach control/Tower under whose area of
jurisdiction it is flying.

1 Introduction
The following procedures for the Altimeter Setting are in force in Bangladesh:
1.1 Transition altitudes and transition level for all aerodromes are given on page Para 2.1.1
1.2 QNH reports and temperature information for use in determining adequate terrain clearance is available on
request from air traffic services unit. QNH values are given in hectopascal rounded down to the whole
hectopascal.
1.3. QNH value in inches up to second place of decimal may be made available on request.
1.4 QFE value shall be available on request in tenths of hectopascal and hundredth’s of inches.
2. Basic procedure
2.1 General
2.1.1 Transition altitude and transition level in all aerodromes in Bangladesh are 4,000 ft (1312.3 meters) and Flight
level 60 respectively. No transition Altitude is less than 3,000 ft (900 meters) above an aerodrome.
2.1.2 Vertical displacement of aircraft when at or below the transition altitude is expressed in terms of altitude
whereas such displacement at or above the transition level is expressed in terms of flight level. While passing
through the transition layer, vertical displacement is expressed in terms of altitude when descending and in
terms of flight level when ascending.
2.1.3 Flight level zero is located at the atmospheric pressure level 1013.2 hPa (29.92 inch) consecutive flight levels
are separated by a pressure interval corresponding to 500 feet (152.4 meters) in the Standard Atmosphere.
Note: - Examples of the relationship between flight levels and altimeter indications are given in the following
table the metric equivalents being approximate:
2.2.1 A QNH altimeter setting is made available to aircraft in taxi-clearance prior to take off.
2.2.2 Vertical displacement of aircraft during climb is expressed in terms of altitudes until reaching the transition
altitude above which vertical displacement is expressed in terms of flight level.
2.3.2 It is the Pilot’s responsibility to select a flight level which will give adequate terrain clearance using forecast
pressure information.
2.3.3 Aircraft approaching an airfield below the notified transition level shall set the airfield’s QNH value.
2.3.4 Cruising levels shall be flown at f light levels corresponding to the magnetic tracks shown in the table of
paragraph 4 of page ENR 1.7-4 and 1.7-5.
2.4.1 A QNH altimeter setting is made available in approach clearances and landing instructions.
2.4.3 Vertical displacement of aircraft during approach is controlled by reference to flight levels until reaching the
transition level, below which vertical displacement is controlled by reference to altitude.
The relevant portions of 2.2 & 2.4 shall be applied to the case of a missed approach.
3.1.1 The level(s) at which a flight is to be conducted shall be specified in flight plan ;
a) In terms of flight level(s) (due consideration may be given to minimum safe altitude for the route
sector) if the flight is to be conducted at or above the transition level, and
b) In terms of altitude if the flight is to be conducted in the vicinity of an aerodrome and at or below the
transition altitude.
Note: Flight levels are not specified in terms of feet or meters as is the case with altitudes, but only specified by
number.
a) in areas where, on the basis of regional air navigation agreements and in accordance with conditions specified therein, a
vertical separation minimum (VSM) of 300 m (1 000 ft) is applied between FL 290 and FL 410 inclusive:*

General procedures
7.1 The following procedures are intended to provide guidance. All possible circumstances cannot be covered.
The pilot’s judgment shall ultimately determine the sequence of actions taken and ATC shall render all
possible assistance.
7.2 If the aircraft is required to deviate from track to avoid weather and prior clearance cannot be obtained, an
air traffic control clearance shall be obtained at the earliest possible time. In the meantime, the aircraft shall
follow the procedures derailed in paragraph 7.9 below.
7.3 The pilot shall advise ATC when weather deviation is no longer required, or when a weather deviation has
been completed and the aircraft has returned to the centerline of its cleared route.
7.4 When the pilot initiates communications with ATC, rapid response may be obtained by stating “WEATHER
DEVIATION REQUIRED” to indicate that priority is desired on the frequency and for ATC response.
7.5 The pilot still retains the option of initiating the communications using the urgency call “PAN PAN” to alert
all listening parties to a special handling condition, which may receive ATC priority for issuance of clearance
or assistance.
7.6 When controller-pilot communications are established, the pilot shall notify ATC and request clearance to
deviate from track, advising, when possible, the extent of the deviation expected. ATC will take one of the
following actions:
(a) if there is no conflicting traffic in the horizontal dimension, ATC will issue clearance to deviate from
track; or
(b) if there is c onflicting traffic in the horizontal dimension, ATC will separate aircraft by establishing
vertical separation or, if unable to establish vertical separation, ATC shall;
i) advise the pilot of inability to issue clearance for requested deviation,
ii) advise pilot of conflicting traffic,
iii) request pilot’s intentions.
SAMPLE PHRASEOLOGY:
“Unable (requested deviation), traffic is (call-sign, position, altitude, direction), advise intention.”
7.8 The pilot shall take the actions listed below under the provision that the pilot may deviate from rules of the air
(e.g. the requirement to operate on route or track center line unless otherwise directed by ATC), when it is
absolutely necessary in the interests of safety to do so.
7.9 If a r evised air traffic control clearance cannot be obtained and deviation from track is required to avoid
weather, the pilot shall take the following actions:
(a) if possible, deviate away from an organized track or route system;
(b) establish communication with and alert nearby aircraft by broadcasting, at suitable intervals: flight
identification, flight level, aircraft position (including the ATS route designator or the track code) and
intentions (including the magnitude of the deviation expected)on the frequency in use, as well as on
frequency 121.5 MHz ( or, as a back-up, the VHF inter-pilot air-to-air frequency 123.45 MHz );
(c) watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS;
(d) turn on all aircraft exterior lights ( commensurate with appropriate operating limitations);
(e) for deviation of up to 10 NM, aircraft should remain at the level assigned by ATC;
(f) for deviations of greater than 10 NM, when the aircraft is approximately 10 NM from track, initiate a
level change based on the following criteria:
Note: 7.9 (b) and (c) above calls for the pilot to: broadcast aircraft position and pilot’s intentions, identify
conflicting traffic and communicate air-to-air with nearby aircraft. If the pilot determines that there is another
aircraft at or near the same FL with which his aircraft might conflict, then the pilot is expected to adjust the
path of the aircraft, as necessary, to avoid conflict.
(g) if contact was not established prior to deviating, continue to attempt to contact ATC to obtain a
clearance. If contact was established, continue to keep ATC advised of intentions and obtain essential
traffic information.
(h) when returning to track, be at its assigned flight level, when the aircraft is within approximately 10 NM
of center line.
6.0 Special Procedures to Mitigate Wake Turbulence Encounters and Distracting Aircraft System Alerts in
the Oceanic Airspace of the Dhaka FIR.
8.1 The following special procedures are applicable to mitigate wake turbulence or distracting aircraft system alert
(e.g. ACAS, Ground Proximity Warning System (WGPS) in airspace where RVSM is applied:
Note: in the contingency circumstances below, ATC will not issue clearances for lateral offsets and will not
normally respond to actions taken by the pilots.
8.2 An aircraft that encounters wake vortex turbulence or experiences distracting aircraft system alerts shall notify
ATC and request a flight level, track or speed change to avoid the condition. However, in situations where
such a c hange is not possible or practicable, the pilot may initiate the following temporary lateral offset
procedure with the intention of returning to centerline as soon as practicable:
(a) the pilot should establish contact with other aircraft. if possible, on the appropriate VHF inter-pilot
air to air frequency, 123.45 MHz; and
(b) one (or both ) aircraft may initiate lateral offset(s) up to 2 NM either Left or Right of track, provided
that;
i) as soon as practicable to do so, the off setting aircraft notify ATC that temporary lateral offset
action has been taken and specify the reason for doing so (ATC will not normally respond); and
ii) the offsetting aircraft notify ATC when re-established on assigned route(s) or track(s) (ATC
will not normally respond).
9. Flight Planning Requirement.
9.1 Unless special arrangement is made as detailed below, RVSM approval is required for operators and aircraft to
operate within designated RVSM airspace. The operator must determine that the appropriate State authority
has granted them RVSM operational approval and they will meet the RVSM requirements for the filed route
of flight and any planned alternate routes. The letter “W” shall be inserted in item 10 (Equipment) of the
ICAO standard flight plan to indicate that both the aircraft and operator are RVSM approved.
9.2 Procedures for Operation of Non-RVSM Compliant Civil Aircraft in RVSM airspace.
9.2.1 Non-RVSM compliant civil aircraft shall not file flight plan between FL290 and FL410 inclusive within
RVSM airspace, except non-RVSM civil aircraft unable to fly to an appropriate destination at or below
FL280 and unable to fly at or above FL410 may, after special coordination as detailed in 9.2.2 below, flight
plan at RVSM flight levels in the RVSM stratum provided the aircraft:
(b) if transiting Dhaka FIR notify Dhaka Area Control Center after approval is received from the first
affected center and prior to departure. (Note that filing of flight plan is not appropriate notification),
and
(c) include the remarks “ APVD non RVSM’’ in field 18 of the ICAO flight plan.
Telephone : +880-2-8901463
AFTN : VGHSZQZX
E-mail : acc_dhaka@[Link]
Fax : +880-2- 8901924
9.2.4 Non RVSM aircraft operation in the RVSM stratum will be separated from all other aircraft by a minimum
2,000 ft vertical separation.
9.2.5 This approval processes is intended exclusively for the purposes indicated above, and not as a means to
circumvent the normal RVSM approval process.
10. Procedures for Operation of Non-RVSM Compliant State Aircraft in RVSM airspace.
10.1 Operation of State aircraft (military, customs or police service) that are not RVSM compliant may flight plan
within Dhaka FIR RVSM airspace in accordance with the requirement of paragraph 9.2.2(b), 9.2.2(c), 9.2.3
and 9.2.4. Also, Bangladesh requires operators of State aircraft that are not RVSM approved intending to
operate in Dhaka FIR to notify Dhaka Area Control Center not more than 72 hrs and not less than 4 hrs prior
to the intended departure time. If transiting Dhaka FIR, notify Dhaka Area Control Center of intentions prior
to departure. (Note that filing of flight plan is not appropriate notification. Notification constitutes approval).
11. Separation applied to non-RVSM compliant aircraft and Provision for continuous Climb/ Descent
of non-compliant aircraft through RVSM airspace.
11.1 VERTICAL SEPARATION APPLIED. I t should be noted that RVSM approved aircraft will be given
priority for level allocation over non-RVSM approved aircraft. The vertical separation minimum between non-
RVSM aircraft operating in the RVSM stratum and all other aircraft is 2000 ft.
11.2 CLIMB AND DESCENT THROUGH RVSM AIRSPACE. Non- RVSM compliant aircraft may be cleared to
climb to and operate above FL410 or descend to and operate below FL290 provided that they
(a) Do not climb or descent at less than the normal rate for the aircraft and
(b) Do not level off at an intermediate level while passing through the RVSM stratum.
12.0 Delivery Flights for Aircraft that are RVSM Compliant on Delivery
12.1 An aircraft that is RVSM compliant on delivery may operate in the RVSM airspace of Dhaka FIR provided
that the crew is trained on RVSM policies and procedures applicable in the airspace and the responsible State
issues the operator a letter of authorization approving the operation. The State notification to the MAAR
should be in the form of a letter, e-mail or fax documenting the one-time flight. The planned date of flight,
flight identification and registration number and aircraft type/series should be included. The details of such
flights shall also be forwarded to the Dhaka Area Control Center at least 3 days in advance.
Address is:
Dhaka Area Control Center

Fax : +880-2-8901924
13.1 Air Traffic Services will consider suspending RVSM procedures within affected areas of the Dhaka FIR when
there are pilot reports of greater than moderate turbulence. Within areas where RVSM procedures are
suspended, the vertical separation minimum between all aircraft will be 2,000 ft.
14. Guidance for Pilots and Controllers for Actions in the Event of Aircraft System Malfunction or
Turbulence Greater than Moderate.
15.1 An aircraft operated as a controlled flight shall maintain continuous air–ground voice communication watch
on the appropriate communication channel of, and establish two-way communication as necessary with the
appropriate Air Traffic Control unit. For aircraft forming part of aerodrome traffic at a controlled aerodrome
the conditions given in Para 15.2 shall apply.
Note 1: SELCAL or similar automatic signaling devices satisfy the requirement to maintain an air-ground
voice communication watch.
Note 2: The requirement for an aircraft to maintain air-ground voice communication watch remains in effect
after CPDLC has been established.
[Link] If in IMC or when conditions are such that it does not appear feasible to complete the flight in accordance
with Para [Link] (see Note 1), the aircraft shall:
a) maintain the last assigned speed and level, or minimum flight altitude if higher, for a period of 20 minutes
following the aircraft’s failure to report its position over a compulsory reporting point and thereafter
adjust level and speed in accordance with the filed flight plan;
b) proceed according to the current flight plan route to the appropriate designated navigation aid serving the
destination aerodrome and, when required to ensure compliance with c) below, hold over this aid until
commencement of descent;
c) commence descend from the navigation aid specified in (b) at, or as close as possible to, the EAT last
received and acknowledged, at, or as close as possible to, the EAT resulting from the current flight plan;
d) complete a normal instrument approach procedure as specified for the designated navigation aid; and
e) land, if possible, within thirty minutes after the ETA specified in (c) or the last acknowledged EAT,
whichever is later.
Note1: As evidenced by the meteorological conditions prescribed therein, Para [Link] relates to all
controlled flights, whereas Para [Link] relates to IFR flights only.
Note 2: The provision of air traffic control service to other flights operating in the airspace concerned will be
based on the premise that an aircraft experiencing communication failure will comply with the rules in Para
[Link].
[Link] In the continental Airspace of Dhaka FIR the applicable vertical separation minimum between an aircraft
experiencing a communication failure in flight and any other aircraft shall be 600 m (2000ft), unless an
appropriate horizontal separation minimum exists. If the aircraft fails to indicate that it is able to receive and
acknowledge transmissions, the separation shall be maintained between the aircraft having the communication
failure and other aircraft, based on the assumption that the aircraft will:
a) if in VMC: comply with the provisions in para [Link]
b) if in IMC or when conditions are such that it dose not appear feasible to complete the flight in accordance
with (a): comply with the provisions in para [Link] above.
Note 1: Since ATC is often unable to determine the extent of any equipment failure for an aircraft
experiencing a communication failure in flight, ATC shall provide a vertical separation as mentioned in para
[Link] above. However, no specific procedures are prescribed for the flights experiencing a communication
failure in the oceanic airspace of Dhaka FIR where the communication coverage may not be adequate. In such
cases, subject to traffic conditions, and with the subsequent FIR/ACC, the ATC may provide additional
separation to such flights experiencing a communication failure in the oceanic airspace.
Note 2: Provisions related to minimum level are contained in Annex 2, para 5.1.1
Note 3: As evidenced by the meteorological conditions prescribed therein, para [Link] (a) relates to all
controlled flights, whereas para [Link] (b) relates to IFR flights only.
[Link] Action taken to ensure suitable separation based on the assumption stated in para [Link] shall cease when:
a) it is determined that the aircraft is following a procedure differing from that in para [Link]; or
b) through the use of electronic or other aids, Air Traffic Control units determine that action differing from
that required by para [Link] may be taken without impairing safety; or
c) positive information is received that the aircraft has landed.
[Link] As soon as it is known that two-way communication has failed, appropriate information describing the action
taken by the Air Traffic Control unit, or instruction justified by any emergency situation, shall be transmitted
blind for the attention of the aircraft concerned, on the frequencies available on which the aircraft is believed
to be listening, including the voice frequencies of available radio navigation or approach aides. Information
shall also be given concerning:
a) whether conditions favorable to a cloud-breaking procedure in where congested traffic may be avoided;
and
b) weather conditions at suitable aerodromes.
[Link] Pertinent information shall be given to other aircraft in the vicinity of the presumed position
of the aircraft experiencing communication failure.
[Link] As soon as it is known that an aircraft, which is operating in its area of responsibility, is experiencing an
apparent radio communication failure, an ATS unit shall forward in formation concerning the radio
communication failure to all ATS units concerned along the route of flight. The ACC in whose area the
destination aerodrome is located shall take steps to obtain information on the Alternate Aerodrome(s) and
other relevant information specified in the filed flight plan, if such information is not available.
[Link] If circumstances indicate that a controlled flight experiencing a communication failure might proceed to (one
of) the alternate aerodrome(s) specified in the filed flight plan, the ATC unit(s) serving the Alternate
Aerodrome(s) and any other Air Traffic Control units that might be affected by a possible diversion shall be
informed of the circumstances of the failure and requested to attempt to establish communication with the
aircraft at a time when the aircraft could possible be within communication range. This shall apply particularly
when, by agreement with the operator or a designated representative, a clearance has been transmitted blind to
the aircraft concerned to proceed to an alternate aerodrome, or when weather conditions at the at the
aerodrome of intended landing are such that a diversion to an alternate is considered likely.
[Link] When an Air Traffic Control unit receives information that an aircraft, after experiencing a communication
failure has re-established communication or has landed, that unit shall inform the Air Traffic Service unit in
whose area the aircraft was operating at the time the failure occurred, and other Air Traffic Service units
concerned along the route of flight, giving necessary information for the continuation of control if the aircraft
is continuing in flight.
Scenario 2: There is a failure of loss of accuracy of one primary altimetry system (e.g., greater than 200
feet difference between primary altimeters)

1. Flight Plan
1.1 Flight Plan Form as prescribed by ICAO in latest DOC-4444 (PANS- ATM) is used for the preparation and
submission of flight plans.
1.2 Flight Plan Form shall be filled as per the guidance in Amendment-1 to the 15th Edition of ICAO Doc.4444.
1.3 The simultaneous mode of addressing ATS messages is used. The step by step mode will not be followed.
1.4 Multiple flight plans in lieu of a “THROUGH FLIGHT PLAN” will be accepted only in respect of flights
whose first departure point is in Bangladesh. An intermediate stop flight plan for the next individual stage
will be accepted only when filed within 2 hours before ETD.
i) Local flights at all uncontrolled aerodromes in control zones and at all controlled aerodromes
must file a flight plan prior to departure by any available means with the appropriate ATS unit;
ii) Local flights at all uncontrolled aerodromes outside control zones may be undertaken without
a flight plan provided they are operated during day in VMC below 1,000 feet;
Note: A local flight is a flight conducted wholly in the vicinity of an aerodrome i.e. take-off from
an aerodrome, remain in the traffic circuit and land back at the same aerodrome.
(b) Flight departing from aerodrome (controlled or uncontrolled) in accordance with the multiple flight
plan previously filed at a controlled aerodrome i.e. separate flight plan for each stage of the flight
through intermediate stops filed at the aerodrome of first departure need not re-submit a flight plan.
(c) Other flights departing from an uncontrolled aerodrome may file a flight plan prior to departure by
any available means of communication with the FIC or a controlled aerodrome.
Note: Flight departing from an uncontrolled aerodrome within a control zone, shall operate in
accordance with instructions from the appropriate ATC unit. Such instructions shall be obtained
prior to departure by any available means of communication.
(d) Under exceptional circumstances submission of Flight Plan during a flight may be accepted by the
appropriate ATS unit at least ten minutes prior to estimated entry to controlled airspace.
Flight Plans will be accepted within two hours prior to departure. Flight Plans should be submitted at least
sixty minutes before departure.
In the event of delay of one hour in excess of the proposed departing time of flight for which a Flight has
been submitted, the flight plan should be amended or a new flight plan submitted.
Requirement for submitting flight plan at Chattogram Airport by Bangladesh registered aircraft originated
from HSIA may be waived provided that the aircraft is returning to HSIA within 8 (eight) hours. It will
however, be incumbent upon the Pilot-in-Command or his designated representative to obtain
meteorological briefing for the return flight also, before departure from Dhaka. It will be imperative,
however, for the Pilot-in-Command to obtain and satisfy himself with necessary meteorological information
when:
a) The return flight is delayed beyond the stipulated eight hours, irrespective of weather.
b) Bad weather prevails en-route or at destination, irrespective of stipulated eight hours.
2.4 From Para 2 to 2.3 above are the difference from ANNEX 2.

Part VIII
2.5.1 Flight plans i. e. separate Flight Plans for each stage of the flight through intermediate stops may be filed at
the aerodrome of first departure only in respect of flights whose first departure point is in Bangladesh.
2. Flight movement messages relating to traffic into or via Dhaka FIR shall be addressed as stated below in
order to warrant correct relay and delivering.
1. Interception procedures
The following procedures and visual signals are applicable in the event of interception of an aircraft over the
territory and territorial waters of Bangladesh.
(i) Interception of civil aircraft shall be governed by appropriate regulations and administrative directives
issued by the Chairman in compliance with the Convention on International Civil Aviation.
(ii) The pilot-in-command of a civil aircraft, when intercepted, shall comply with the instructions as
published by the Chairman.
(iii) If a Bangladesh registered aircraft or an aircraft operated by a Bangladeshi operator, while over
flying the territory of another contracting state, is intercepted by the authority of that State shall
follow the applicable rules of that authority.
2. If radio contact with the intercepting aircraft is established but communication in a common language is not
possible, attempts shall be made to convey instructions and acknowledgement of instructions and essential
information by using the following phrases and pronunciations, and transmitting each phrase twice:
LAND (place name) LAAND (place name) I request to land at (place name)
Note: The following phrases are expected to be used by the intercepting aircraft in the circumstances described
above:-
3. If any instructions received by radio from any sources conflict with those given by the intercepting aircraft by
visual signals, the intercepted aircraft shall request immediate clarification while continuing to comply with
the visual instructions given by the intercepting aircraft.
4. If any instructions received by radio from any sources conflict with those given by the intercepting aircraft by
radio, the intercepted aircraft shall request immediate clarification while continuing to comply with the radio
instructions given by the intercepting aircraft.
5. The visual signals are detailed in the following table:
Signals initiated by intercepting aircraft and responses by intercepted aircraft.

1. Introduction
All air space in which a potential hazard to aircraft operations may exist and all areas over which the
operation of civil aircraft may, for one reason or another, be restricted either temporarily or permanently,
are classified according to the following three types of areas as defined by ICAO.
2. Danger Area
2.1 An airspace of defined dimensions within which activities dangerous to the flight of aircraft may exist at
specified times. This term is used only when the potential danger to aircraft has not led to the designation
of the airspace as restricted or prohibited. The effect of the creation of the danger area is to caution
operators or pilots of aircraft that it is necessary for them to assess the dangers in relation to their
responsibility for the safety of their aircraft.
3. Prohibited Area
3.1 An airspace of defined dimensions, above the lands areas or territorial waters of a State within which the
flight of aircraft is prohibited. This term is used only when the flight of civil aircraft within the designated
airspace is not permitted at any circumstances.
4. Restricted Area
4.1 An airspace of defined dimensions, above the land areas or territorial waters of a State, within which the
flight of aircraft is restricted in accordance with certain specified conditions. This term is used whenever
the flight of civil aircraft within the designated airspace is not absolutely prohibited but may be made only
of specified times leads to the designation of the airspace a “restricted area’ as would prohibition except in
certain meteorological conditions. Similarly, prohibition of flight unless special permission has been
obtained, leads to the designation of restricted area. However, conditions of flight imposed as a result of
application of rules of the air or air traffic services practices or procedures (for example airspace) do not
constitute conditions calling for designation as a restricted area.
5. Each area is numbered and a single series of numbers is used for all areas, regardless of type, to ensure that
a number is never duplicated.
6. The types of area involved is indicated by the letter “P” for Prohibited, “R” for Restricted and “D” for
Danger preceded by the nationality letters VG. For example areas are assigned numbers and letters in the
following manner , VGP1, VGD2, VGD3, VGP4, VGR5, VGD6, ... etc
7. Each area is described in the tabulation found in ENR 5.1-3 to 5.1-10 which indicates its lateral and
vertical limits, the type of restriction or hazard involved, the times at which it applies and other pertinent
information.
7.1 These areas are also shown on Radio Navigation Charts using the chart symbols shown in the following
examples:

1. FLIGHT PLAN:
All operators will submit their flight plans at least one hour before ETD from Tejgaon for both proceeding
to destination and arriving from that place to Tejgaon. Tejgaon PFIU unit will pass the flight plans to P.F.I.U.
at Hazrat Shahjalal Intl. Airport HAZRAT SHAHJALAL(P.F.I.U) will check the flight plans and will inform
Tejgaon whether those flight plans are established procedures followed at Hazrat Shahjalal International
Airport. Only those flights will be allowed to operate whose flight plans have been cleared.
2.1 DEPARTURE
Before permitting to start engines of any aircraft Tejgaon will coordinate Dhaka Tower. Tejgaon Tower will
clear flight as per the clearance prescribed by Dhaka Tower. Departure aircraft while passing through 1000
feet or leaving Tejgaon circuit whichever is earlier will be released for take-off if confirmed by Tejgaon
Tower that required visibility exists at the place of destination. All operation to/from Barishal will be subject
to prior coordination between Tejgaon & Dhaka Tower due to presence of Training Area VGR 25 & VGR
26. Army Aviation aircraft proceeding to training area south. Dhaka tower shall coordinate with Tejgaon
Tower before clearing any flight. Tejgaon Tower will ensure separation between Military aircraft and civil
traffic in the training area VGR 25/VGR26 in coordination with appropriate Military Authority.
If aircraft encounters IMC in control zone, it will proceed to Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport for
landing (following existing Instrument procedures). While in contact with HSIA the aircraft has Tejgaon
airfield in sight and if weather condition permits, the aircraft may be handed over to Tejgaon for visual
landing subject to traffic condition.
2.2 Arrival:
Once ETA of any flight from airport outside Dhaka is received, the same will be passed by Dhaka Tower to
Tejgaon Tower and vice versa without delay, once Tejgaon Tower and vice versa without delay, once
Tejgaon Tower receives ETA of flights arriving from Barishal, it will ensure that adequate separation exist
between such flights and other military aircraft in the training VGR25/VGR26 in coordination with
appropriate Military authority. Coordination regarding any STOPL aircraft arriving Tejgaon will be effected
by Dhaka Tower at five miles west of Tejgaon/passing through 2000 feet while descending or at a
place/time/level as agreed by both controllers. Tejgaon Tower will pass all the arrival message to the port of
departure.
Security: Operators are responsible for ensuring safe operation of flights and also ensure safety of their
aircraft when the aircraft are at parked position. Civil Aviation Authority will assist the operators regarding
security.
