and 'must'

The instruction is mandatory

'will

It is only used for informative or descriptive writing,


e.g. 'pilots will file . . . . . ' is not an instruction to the
controller

or alternative, e.g. 'a controller may seek assistance .
. . . . 'but would not if he did not need it.

EDITION No. 6

Effective Date: 01/02/2017

Page 2

TACC MATC II

'should'

INTRODUCTION

CHAPTER 1

It means that it is strongly advisable that an


instruction is carried out;
It is recommended or Discretionary. It is
applied where the more positive 'shall' is
unreasonable but nevertheless a controller
Would have to have a good reason for not
doing so.
It always refers to nautical
miles

'miles'

(e.g. Danger Areas).
5. Equipment redundancies (e.g. RADAR, frequencies), Controllers should
confirm with TACC Supervisor before Merging/Splitting the sector.
6. TACC Supervisor should inform the adjacent ATC unites of the merging /
splitting of a sector if necessary.
When the merging or splitting of a sector has been performed, the following
actions should be taken:
1. Ensure correct frequency/frequencies are selected.
2. Deselect / select telephone lines as appropriate.
3. Advise FDO positions (when available) / assistant as appropriate.
2.3.3. Sector Manning Level:
It is the responsibility of the TACC Supervisor to ensure that sectors are manned to
meet traffic demand. The following manning levels are given for guidance but the
minimum manning levels shall not be reduced.
Controllers allocated to a control position or workstation will carry out a full
handover with the controller they are taking over from and remaining at their
position until relieved.

CHAPTER 2

seriousness of a misunderstanding in the transmission and reception of ATC


clearances and instructions. Strict adherence to read back procedures ensures, not
only that the clearance has been received correctly but also that the clearance was
transmitted as intended. It also serves as a check that the right aircraft, and only that
aircraft, will take the proper action on the clearance.
To enhance the safety and to use our equipment usefully the RADAR controller
must watch the extended label of the concerned flights to check if the pilots are
complain with ATC clearance or not.
2.5.2.10.1 Purpose:
1. To develop read back procedures and Implementation process.
2. To ensure the effective mechanism for the implementation of read back
procedure.
2.5.2.10.2 Read back of ATC clearances:
a) Flight crew responsibility:
1. The flight crew shall read back to the air traffic controller safety-related parts of
ATC clearances and instructions which are transmitted by voice.
2. Pilot should briefly read back the contents of the following items, included in
ATC clearances, instructions or approvals, transmitted through voice
communication by ATC facility, Mobile Communication Service facility or
International Air-ground Communication Service facility unless ATC facility
instructs not to reply:
a) Clearances or instructions to take-off, land on, cross, taxi on, line up and
hold short of any runway.
b) Clearances or instructions regarding a route of flight including (SID,
Transition and STAR.
c) Clearances or instructions regarding altitude, altitude restrictions, heading
and speed.
d) Holding instruction, approach clearance or go-around instruction.
e) Radio frequency instruction.
f) Conditional clearances or instructions.
3. The use of the term ROGER or WILCO is not an acceptable read back as it
does not allow the controller to confirm or correct the clearance or instruction.
4. The read back message shall always include the flight call sign (flight number \
call sign). The pilot shall not switch immediately to the next sector frequency
following read back of controllers instruction.
5. A pilot should ensure confirmation of read-back is received:

EDITION No. 6

Effective Date:01/02/2017

Page 31

TACC MATC II

Terminal Area Control Center

CHAPTER 2

a) Clearances or instructions, including conditional clearances, shall be read


back or acknowledged in a manner to clearly indicate that they have been
understood and will be complied with.
b) SSR codes and Runway in use (except when transmitted simultaneously to
all aircraft hearing the same frequency.)
2.5.2.10.3 Controller responsibility:
1. The controller shall listen to the read-back to ascertain that the clearance or
instruction has been correctly acknowledged by the flight crew.
2. The controller shall listen to the read-back to as certain that the clearance or
instruction has been correctly acknowledged by the flight crew and shall to
take immediate action to correct any descriptions reverted by the read-back..
3. The Controller should pass a clearance slowly and clearly since the pilot needs
to write it down and wasteful repetition will thus be avoided. In any case
controllers should avoid passing a clearance to a pilot engaged in complicated
taxiing maneuvers and on no occasion should a clearance be passed when the
pilot is engaged in line up or take-off maneuvers.
4. The word "take-off" are used only when an aircraft is cleared for take-off, or
when cancelling a take- off clearance. At other times the word "departure" or
"airborne" is used.
5. If an aircraft read back of a clearance or instruction is incorrect, the controller
shall transmit the word "NEGATIVE" followed by the correct version.
6. If there is a doubt as to whether a pilot can comply with an ATC clearance or
instruction or not, the controller may follow the clearance or instruction by the
phrase "if not possible advice", and subsequently offer an alternative.
2.5.2.10.4 Air Traffic Management Responsibility:
1. The ATM establishes appropriate supervisory means to ensure the correct
application of standard phraseology procedures by ATCOs.
2. The ATM implements the recommendation by the International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO) in Annex 11 Air Traffic Services, paragraph 3.3.3.
stating that: air traffic control units should be equipped with devices that
record background communication and the aural environment at air traffic
controller work stations, capable of retaining the information recorded during
at least the last twenty-four hours of operation.
3. The ATM should review the MATC I & II to ensure that common practices
and local instructions are contained in MATC I & II and that they are not in
contradiction.
4. The ATM should establish written instructions in the MATC I & II and
supervise their operational implementation to ensure the clear and
unambiguous.
5. The ATM should implement back-up communication means.

CHAPTER 3

3. RADAR Failure Procedure


3.1 In the event of total failure of the ATC RADAR System the following will be
undertaken:
1. ATC shall advise pilots-in-command of the RADAR failure via the appropriate airground channels.
2. All departures may be suspended until aircraft in flight have been provided with
standard separation based on a procedural control (vertical separation) environment
or have landed.
3. As an emergency measure, the use of flight levels spaced by half the applicable
vertical separation minimum (500 FT) may be resorted to temporarily if standard
Non-RADAR Separation cannot be provided immediately.
4. Inbound aircraft will be held over QTR VOR or AMN VOR and inward clearance
will leave the holding areas for an approach to land will be subject to the position
of the preceding aircraft.
5. Departing aircraft may be continued to be regulated according the FPL or SIDs
with the appropriate Slot Time. To assist ATC in providing separation, pilots-incommand of aircraft departing on SIDs shall report established on the flight plan
ATS routes as soon as possible.
6. When RADAR services are re-established, ATC shall notify pilots via the assigned
frequency and the ATIS System. ATC will also take action to re-establish aircraft
identification before providing RADAR services.
7. Pilots shall take note that extended delays to operations may result depending on
the traffic and weather conditions. ATC will attempt to notify pilots of inbound
aircraft of the extent of the delay to enable pilots to decide whether to hold or to
divert without delay.
8. ATC shall transmit on the ATIS advising all pilots-in-command that RADAR
Failure Recovery Procedures are in Operation; all aircraft are to adhere strictly to
ATC instructions.
9. Longitudinal separation will be extended to 10-15 minutes as appropriate as NonRADAR Separation.
10. Flow control may impose during RADAR Failure Procedures if the prevailing
situations will be extended due to long periods malfunction of the surveillance
systems, and submission a NOTAM should be considered.

4. RADAR CONTROL
4.1. General:
RADAR controller shall be responsible for adjusting RADAR display and for carrying
out adequate checks on the accuracy; RADAR controller shall satisfy himself that the
information presented on RADAR display is adequate for the functions to be
performed.
RADAR controller shall report to TACC supervisor any degradation in the equipment
or any circumstances which makes impractical to provide RADAR service.
While using SSR system, especially those utilizing mono pulse technique (TAHLAS)
or having Mode S capability (INDRA), may be used alone in the provision of
separation between aircraft provided:
1. The carriage of SSR transponders is mandatory within the area.
2. Identification is established and maintained.
4.2. Surveillance Identification of aircraft:
4.2.1. Establishment of identification:
Before providing an ATS surveillance service to an aircraft, identification shall be
established and the pilot informed. Thereafter, identification shall be maintained until
termination of the ATS surveillance service.
If identification is subsequently lost, the pilot shall be informed accordingly and, when
applicable, appropriate instructions issued.
4.2.2 SSR identification procedures:
Where SSR is used for identification, aircraft may be identified by one or more of the
following procedures:
I. Recognition of the aircraft identification in a SSR label;
Note: The use of this procedure requires that the code/call sign correlation is
achieved successfully, taking into account the Note following II) below.
II. Recognition of an assigned discrete code, the setting of which has been verified, in
a RADAR label; and
Note: The use of this procedure requires a system of code assignment which
ensures that each aircraft in a given portion of airspace is assigned a discrete
code.
III. Direct recognition of the aircraft identification of a Mode S-equipped aircraft in a
RADAR label;
Note: The aircraft identification feature available in Mode S transponders
provides the means to identify directly individual aircraft on situation displays
and thus offers the potential to eliminate ultimately the recourse to Mode A

TACC MATC II

RADAR Control

CHAPTER 4

discrete codes for individual identification. This elimination will only be achieved
in a progressive manner depending on the state of deployment of suitable ground
and airborne installations.
IV. By transfer of identification , by one of the following methods:
1. Designation of the position indication by automated means, provided that only
one position indication is thereby indicated and there is no possible doubt of
correct identification;
2. Notification of the aircrafts discrete SSR code or aircraft address;
Note: Aircraft address would be expressed in the form of the alphanumerical
code of six hexadecimal characters.
3. Notification that the aircraft is SSR Mode S-equipped with an aircraft
identification feature when SSR Mode S coverage is available;
4. Notification that the aircraft is ADS-B-equipped with an aircraft identification
feature when compatible ADS-B coverage is available;
5. Direct designation "pointing with the finger" of the position indication, if the two
situation displays are adjacent, or if a common conference type of situation
display is used;
Note: Attention must be given to any errors which might occur due to parallax
effects.
6. Designation of the position indication by reference to, or in terms of bearing and
distance from, a geographical position or navigational facility accurately indicated
on both situation displays, together with the track of the observed position
indication if the route of the aircraft is not known to both controllers;
Note: Caution must be exercised before transferring identification using this
method, particularly if other position indications are observed on similar
headings and in close proximity to the aircraft under control.
Inherent RADAR deficiencies, such as inaccuracies in bearing and distance of the
RADAR position indications displayed on individual situation displays and parallax
errors, may cause the indicated position of an aircraft in relation to the known point
to differ between the two situation displays. The appropriate ATS authority may,
therefore, prescribe additional conditions for the application of this method, e.g.:
i. A maximum distance from the common reference point used by the two
controllers; and
ii. A maximum distance between the position indication as observed by the
accepting controller and the one stated by the transferring controller.
7. Where applicable, issuance of an instruction to the aircraft by the transferring
controller to change SSR code and the observation of the change by the accepting
controller; or

EDITION No. 6

Effective Date: 01/02/2017

Page 38

TACC MATC II

RADAR Control

CHAPTER 4

8. Issuance of an instruction to the aircraft by the transferring controller to


squawk/transmit IDENT and observation of this response by the accepting
controller.
Note: Use of procedures 7) and 8) requires prior coordination between the
controllers, since the indications to be observed by the accepting controller are of
short duration.
V. Observation of compliance with an instruction to set a specific code.
VI. Observation of compliance with an instruction to squawk IDENT.
Notes:
1. In automated RADAR systems, the "IDENT" feature may be presented in
different ways, e.g. as a flashing of all or part of the position indication and
associated label.
2. Garbling of transponder replies may produce "IDENT"-type of indication,
nearly simultaneous IDENT transmissions within the same area may give
rise to errors in identification.
4.2.3 ADS-B identification procedures:
Where ADS-B is used for identification, aircraft may be identified by one or more
of the following procedures:
I. Direct recognition of the aircraft identification in an ADS-B label.
II. Transfer of ADS-B identification.
III. Observation of compliance with an instruction to TRANSMIT ADS-B
IDENT.
Notes:
1. Some aircraft equipped with first generation ADS-B avionics do not have the
capability of squawking IDENT while the emergency and/or urgency mode is
selected.
2. In automated systems, the IDENT feature may be presented in different
ways, e.g. as a flashing of all or part of the position indication and associated
label.
4.3. Surveillance Separation Minima:
The RADAR separation minima to be applied as the following table, the RADAR
controller is responsible for increasing the prescribed Minimum in the event of
RADAR technical limitation or prevailing weather conditions, controller workload
and any difficulty caused by communication problems or traffic congestion.
In low visibility conditions, the RADAR controller shall increase the Horizontal
RADAR Separation Minima.

Verification of pressure-altitude-derived level information displayed to the controller
shall be effected at least once by each suitably equipped ATC unit on initial contact
with the aircraft concerned or, if this is not feasible, as soon as possible thereafter. The
verification shall be effected by simultaneous comparison with altimeter-derived level
information received from the same aircraft by radiotelephony.

CHAPTER 4

The pilot of the aircraft whose pressure-altitude-derived level information is within the
approved tolerance value need not be advised of such verification. Geometric height
information shall not be used to determine if altitude differences exist.
4.4.1 Mode C Verification:
The accuracy of Mode C reporting is affected by: aircraft altimeter accuracy and
pressure setting. Aircraft deviation from the nominal cleared level ATC system
processing.
1. The criterion which shall be used to determine that a specific level is occupied by
an aircraft shall be 60 m (200 ft) in RVSM airspace.
In other airspace, it shall be 90 m (300 ft), except that the appropriate ATS
authority may specify a smaller criterion, but not less than 60 m (200 ft), if this
is found to be more practical.
2. Aircraft maintaining a level: An aircraft is considered to be maintaining its
assigned level as long as the pressure-altitude-derived level information indicates
that it is within the appropriate tolerances of the assigned level, as specified in
Point 1.
3. Aircraft vacating a level: An aircraft cleared to leave a level is considered to
have commenced its maneuver and vacated the previously occupied level when
the pressure-altitude-derived level information indicates a change of more than 90
m (300 ft) in the anticipated direction from its previously assigned level.
4. Aircraft passing a level in climb or descent: An aircraft in climb or descent is
considered to have crossed a level when the pressure-altitude-derived level
information indicates that it has passed this level in the required direction by more
than 90 m (300 ft).
5. Aircraft reaching a level: An aircraft is considered to have reached the level to
which it has been cleared when the elapsed time of three display updates, three
sensor updates or 15 seconds, whichever is the greater, has passed since the
pressure-altitude-derived level information has indicated that it is within the
appropriate tolerances of the assigned level, as specified in Point 1.
4.4.2 Mode C Errors:
1. The displayed level information is not within the approved tolerance value or
when a discrepancy in excess of the approved tolerance value is detected
subsequent to verification, the pilot shall be advised accordingly and requested to
check the pressure setting and confirm the aircrafts level.
2. If following confirmation of the correct pressure setting the discrepancy continues
to exist, the following action should be taken according to circumstances:
a) Request the pilot to stop Mode C or ADS-B altitude data transmission,
provided this does not cause the loss of position and identity information, and
notify the next control positions or ATC unit concerned with the aircraft of the
action taken; or

b) Inform the pilot of the discrepancy and request that the relevant operation
continue in order to prevent loss of position and identity information of the
aircraft and, when authorized by the appropriate ATS authority, override the
label-displayed level information with the reported level. Notify the next
control position or ATC unit concerned with the aircraft of the action taken.

PBN Procedure within AMMAN FIR " RNAV Procedure ":

5.4.1 Description:
Amman is implementing PBN Procedures, RNAV 5 for en-route and RNAV 1 for
SIDs and STARs profiles and RNP 0.3 for approaches.
EDITION No. 6

Effective Date: 01/02/2017

TMA & Area Procedure

CHAPTER 5

PBN operations satisfy required track accuracy for at least 95% of the flight time in
accordance with the requirements set out in ICAO Doc.7030 and Doc. 9613.
Equipped aircraft will operate within PBN airspace and shall be certified for PBN
operation that based on navigation sensors of GNSS.
5.4.2 General Procedures:
All published RNAV TMA instrument flight procedures are based only on GNSS, and
doesnt depend on any ground navigational equipment.
RNAV procedures are available to those aircraft with RNAV capability. This could be
confirmed by checking the FPL item 10ANavigation Equipment and the
corresponding details item 18 which is reflected on INDRA RADAR System on
NAV/COM field and field 18, or by RADIO call.
Controllers should confirm the compliance of the traffic to perform an RNAV
procedure by refer to item 10 in the flight plan:
Traffic shall be within RADAR coverage and identified.
Traffic could be vectored prior to the IAFs (Initial Approach Fixes) for sequencing
purposes, considering the Surveillance Minimum Altitude chart (SMA), and then
cleared to resume navigation to the IAF for either to continue the RNAV Approach or
to enter the associated holding pattern for further delaying actions, further more traffic
could be vectored to the IAFs (Initial Approach Fixes) directly.
In case of any failure of the GNSS system reported or performance degradation below
the required navigation performance, the APP controller will carry on an alternative
mean of navigation; subsequent ATC action will take place with the respect to the
nature of the failure to other traffic and to over all traffic situation and might revert to
a conventional means of navigation, phraseology to be used to indicate deficiency of
GNSS system:
1. GNSS REPORTED UNRELIABLE (or GNSS MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE
[DUE TO INTERFERENCE]);
2. IN THE VICINITY OF (location) (radius) [BETWEEN (levels)]; or IN THE
AREA OF (description) (or IN (name) FIR) [BETWEEN (levels)];
3. BASIC GNSS UNAVAILABLE FOR(specify operation) [FROM (time) TO
(time) (or UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE)]; ) BASIC GNSS UNAVAILABLE
[DUE TO (reason, e.g. LOSS OF RAIM or RAIM ALERT)];
4. UNABLE RNP (specify type) (or RNAV) [DUE TO (reason, e.g. LOSS OF
RAIM or RAIM ALERT)].
In reference to PBN applications in Amman FIR as a supplemental mean of
navigation, most of commercial aircraft found to be able to comply with RNAV SIDs
and STARs, and prefer to follow these procedures as published.

Visual Approach:

7.2.4.1 RADAR Vectoring for Visual Approach:


Upon pilot request RADAR vectoring for visual approach, Approach Unit is
required to bring the aircraft to a point where the pilot can see the runway , then will
continue visually provided that:
1. Approach Unit may initiate RADAR vectoring for visual approach provided
the reported ceiling is above the minimum altitude applicable to RADAR
vectoring and metrological conditions are such that, with reasonable assurance,
a visual approach and landing can be completed.
2. Clearance for visual approach shall be issued only after the pilot has reported
the airfield or the runway is insight, at that time RADAR vectoring would
normally be terminated, successive arriving aircraft would be cleared for visual
approach after coordination with tower.
7.2.4.2

Visual approach on Westerly or Easterly operations:


1. Traffic on visual approach will be cleared down to the minimum vectoring
altitude, with no restriction to join base leg of the runway in use except if there
is traffic on V1 route.
2. Approach Unit will release the traffic leaving the initial approach level/or the
minimum vectoring altitude (when RADAR in use), joining downwind or base
leg, as early as possible.
Note: Succeeding arrival traffic will not be cleared for visual approach until
preceding one is landed or landing is assured, and each request for visual
approach will be handled individually.
3. When the VFR corridor " V1 " is active, visual approach clearance will be
subject to close coordination and approval by the tower, considering traffic
situation within this corridor, such clearances will not be a matter of dispute,
but priority will be given to IFR traffic to the extent possible.
Note: Visual approach maybe approved via QAA or MDB if traffic permit's.
4. Tower will consider the precise estimation of arrival traffic inbound to QAA
& MDB, VFR traffic request VFR clearances, issuance of such, will be based
on the estimation of arrival traffic.
Note: For runway 08R; the controller may initiate vectoring of an aircraft for
visual approach provided the reported ceiling is above the minimum altitude
applicable to vectoring and the meteorology conditions are such that with
reasonable assurance a visual approach and landing can be completed
Clearance for visual approach shall be issued only after the pilot has reported
the aerodrome in sight at which time vectoring would normally be terminated.

Introduction:
Royal Flight Definition (VVIP Flight):
The Royal flight within Jordan airspace is defined as the movement of an aircraft
specifically tasked to carry one or more members of The Royal Family afforded such
status by the Head of Royal Travel, the Royal Household.
The term (VVIP Flight) refers to the flights of the following persons:
1. His Majesty the King; HMK.
2. Her Majesty the Queen; HMQ.
3. Heads of Foreign Government or states.
4. As coordinated by Royal Flight ( RF ) operations.
VIP Flights within Jordan airspace by members of other Royal Families, Prime
Ministers and Heads of States of foreign countries, may also be afforded Royal Flight
status by the air traffic service units, when notified by the Royal Flight Operation .
The term ( VIP Flight ) refers to the flights of the following persons:
1. The Royal Family;
2. Distinguished guests.

9.2

Special Air Traffic Services Procedures for VVIP Flights (Air Traffic
Restrictions):
Procedures for Royal Flights in Fixed-wing Aircraft:
Royal Flights in fixed-wing aircraft will, whenever possible, be planned to take place
within the national ATS route structure. Non Standard ATC procedures shall be
applied to Royal Flights when pirating in permanent Class A and C airspace. In all
other instances the airspace around the route will be designated CAS-T (CONTROL
AIR SPACE Temporary).
Class G Operations may be conducted under IFR or VFR. ATC separation is not
provided. Traffic Information may be given as far as is practical in respect of other
flights.
CAS-T will be notified as Class G airspace; applicable access criteria and separation
standards apply.
Note: Class G Airspace is Uncontrolled airspace which is the portion of the
airspace that has not designated as CLASS A,B,C,D or E. Class G airspace
extends from the surface to unlimited level, and outside controlled airspace
within Amman FIR. Air Traffic Control (ATC) has no authority or
responsibility over this airspace, but there are VFR minimums which apply.

Note: Director of air navigation of QAIA directorate will be informed for ETAs,
ETDs and other information concerning VVIP, VIP flights.
Flight plan of VVIP flight, irrespective of whether condition, must be filed in IFR as
much as practicable.
When the VVIP flight is flying in Amman FIR, no other aircraft shall be cleared to
operate in the block of controlled airspace detailed below:
1. 2000 feet above and below cruising level.
2. The restriction will not be applicable when it is known that horizontal
separation based on current flight plans will exist between the VVIP Flight
and other aircraft.
9.3

General ATC procedures are as follows for VVIP Flight and Distinguished
guests and Transient Services:
TACC Supervisor is responsible for ensuring proper courtesies and services are
provided to VVIP, distinguished visitors and VIPs and transient personnel using

CHAPTER 10

10.7 System Support:


The requirement for ATC to provide two different VSM in the same RVSM
airspace 1000 FT and 2000 FT VSM generates safety critical system support
requirements:
1. RADAR display systems, if available, must provide controllers with continuous
and unambiguous information on the RVSM compliant status of all flights under
their responsibility.
2. Flight strips must display for controllers the Non-RVSM compliant status of all
civil and State aircraft.
3. Where applicable, the indication that a Non-RVSM compliant aircraft is a State
aircraft should be displayed, both on the radar display and on the flight Strip.
4. Automatic conflict alert systems modified to use the RVSM compliant or NonRVSM Compliant status of the aircraft and apply the appropriate VSM of 1000
FT or 2000 FT alerting trigger.
10.8 Contingency Procedures:
If an RVSM compliant aircraft cannot comply with RVSM height-keeping
requirements because of equipment failure, weather, turbulence, etc, ATC will
provide a 2000 FT VSM or an appropriate horizontal separation from all other
aircraft. Normally, such aircraft should be cleared out of RVSM Airspace,
" FL 280- or FL 430+ ".
Note: In case of RADAR Failure Procedure still we can accept RVSM flights
within RVSM layers.
10.8.1 Meteorological Coordination:
Close coordination between ATS and MET is very important, especially in RVSM
airspace, to get early information on severe weather activity and clear air turbulence
" CAT " for areas where it may affect the safe operation of RVSM flights.
10.8.2 Height keeping errors:
There are two categories of Errors:
1. Technical Errors, or Altimetry System Errors " ASE ", caused by inaccuracies in
the height-keeping equipment of aircraft.
2. Operational Errors, or Assigned Altitude Deviation " AAD ", caused by mistakes,
by ATC or Flight Crews, which result in aircraft being flown at incorrect flight
levels.
3. ASE and AAD are the main components of Total Vertical Error " TVE " the target
level of Safety " TLS " must count for the risk analysis from both technical and
operational errors in specific form in Amman TACC.

11.12 Other ATC Contingency Procedures:


11.12.1 Emergency Separation:
If during an emergency situation, it is not possible to ensure that the applicable
horizontal separation can be maintained, emergency separation of half the applicable
vertical separation minimum may be used, i.e. 150 m (500 ft) between aircraft in
airspace where a vertical separation minimum of 300 m (1000 ft) is applied, and 300
m (1000 ft) between aircraft in airspace where a 600 m (2000 ft) vertical separation
minimum is applied.
When emergency separation is applied the flight crews concerned shall be advised
that emergency separation is being applied and informed of the actual minimum
used.
Additionally, all flight crews concerned shall be provided with essential traffic
information.

11.12.2 Short-Term Conflict Alert (STCA) Procedures:


In the event an STCA is generated in respect of controlled flights, ATC shall without
delay assess the situation and, if necessary, take action to ensure that the applicable
separation minimum will not be infringed or will be restored.
Following the generation of an STCA, ATC should be required to complete an air
traffic incident report and in TACC log book.
TACC Chief should retain electronic records of all alerts generated. The data and
circumstances pertaining to each alert should be analyzed to determine whether an
alert was justified or not. Non-justified alerts, e.g. when visual separation was
applied, should be ignored. A statistical analysis should be made of justified alerts in
order to identify possible shortcomings in airspace design and ATC procedures as
well as to monitor overall safety levels.

General System Description:


The AIRCON 2100 System is based on a standard product developed by Indra. At the
same time, an autonomous simulator addressed to controllers for training purposes to
allow analysis of new operational procedures provides the operational system .
AIRCON 2100 represents the last product generation and its architecture is based on
the experience gained in the development of open systems for the displaying and
processing of radar data and flight plans, found on numerous systems installed in
Spain (SACTA System), Canada, Germany, Norway, Holland, India and now in
Jordan, One of the main characteristics of the system is its availability, due to the
employment of redundant elements on a distributed scenario, and to the use of tested
and highly reliable commercial equipment .
The system modularity and distribution determines the software architecture, which
uses distributed discrete processes for the different subsystems for its organization. At
the same time, the system makes use of communication by messages, both for inter
communications between tasks and for its synchronicity. In order to assure a
maximum level of maintenance, communications and application tasks have been
isolated .
The software running in the system has been tested and proved extensively in different
emplacements and during longs periods and, therefore, Indra can guarantee that no
additional developments of any kind are required for its correct and stable operation .
The Operating System used is RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX 5 .

APPENDIX 4

AIRCON 2100 includes all the necessary functionality required in a modern ATC
system.
3.1 INDRA RADAR Coverage:
RADAR system will be able to detect and process targets from .025 up to 256 NM
except for geographical restrictions in distance and more than 66.000 feet in height,
in a 360 degrees azimuth.
3.2 The integration of all its subsystems is performed via :
Local Area Network (LAN): A redundant five (5) category with a 1-Gigabyte
bandwidth capacity LAN is used and, therefore, future updates of the system can be
easily implemented making use of standard communication protocols .
4.

Main components :

4.1 Flight Data Processing (FDP):


It is based on RISC redundant computers. It manages the flight plans generated within
the System or coming from external sources, including the Repetitive Flight Plans
(RPLs). It confirms all flight data inputs, calculates the flights progression and keeps
all controllers inform by means of screen displays and flight plan strips printing.
Redundant configuration designs the System, having an FDP as operative and another
one as reserve, with the possibility to switch them.
4.2

Surveillance Data Processor (SDP):

It is based on RISC redundant computers. It receives and processes data (primary,


secondary and meteorological) coming from the radar sites. Next, it performs the
merge all the received information to create a coherent airspace picture for controllers
(SDD) presentation. It also performs surveillance tasks (STCA, MTCD) between
aircraft and integrates the radar information and the flight plan information in order to
get a precise tracking. The System is duplicated (operative/reserve) being possible to
switch them .
4.3

RADAR Communications Processor (RDCU):

It centralizes the System radar communications to interpret and convert the received
radar formats to join them. The System is composed of two RDCU units working
parallel. It is possible to carry out the received radar data reproduction during an
established period .
5.0

Controlling positions:

5.1

Situation Data Display (SDD):


It is based on powerful workstations that receive data processed by both the SDP and
the FDP. Later on, it manages all these information for a coherent displaying at the

controllers screens (SDD). At the same time, it displays additional relevant


information such as geographic maps, meteorological data.
5.2

Flight Data Display (FDD):

It displays information concerning flight plans not supplying data display of data on
air situation. It allows controllers to perform adjustments on flight plans and other
significant data.
5.3

Control and Monitoring Display (CMD):


It performs a continuous real time supervision of the System. It also allows monitoring
and System elements status change, Sectorization modification, management of
certain configurable parameters, etc.

6.0

Auxiliary equipment:

6.1

Common Timing Facility (CTF):


It receives the GPS time, spread to all the subsystem (via LAN) and all clocks (via
Terminals) with NTP protocol.

6.2

Data Recording Facilities (DRF):


It performs the continuous recording of tracks; flight plans data and controller actions
to allow a later reproduction and analysis.

6.3

Data Base Management (DBM):


It provides the necessary facilities the creation and modification of the adaptation
databases to supply the system with the precise knowledge of its geographical
environment to achieve the required efficiency. From this database, all necessary data
to define the control center characteristics are defined (fix points, aerodromes,
airways, Sectorization, adjacent control centers, QNH zones, etc.).

7.0

Simulator environment:

7.1

Simulator (SIM):
It provides to the controllers an operational replica of the real scenario for training
purposes. It is a multiple exercise simulator system and allows the use of several
exercises, simultaneously and independently. It allows the analysis of new operational
procedures as well as the management and maintenance of the full set of sessions and
exercises recorded in the Simulation Library. It also allows the creation of new
exercises, the selection of training scenarios and provides a complete set of interactive
capacities in order to guarantee full control and management.

7.2

Instructor Pilot Position (PILOT SM):


It allows training scenarios selection, session control and control of aircraft simulated
interactively in such a way that it generates the communication answer to the control
positions from this position.

11.1 General information area:

This area is always displayed at the FDD position, that is, no device can close it. It is
located on the left top side of the screen to access the AFTN messages correction. There
are two different queues to manage the received messages:
1.

Q Queue FP Messages (FPM) and they are:


a) Body erroneous messages.
b) Correct and erroneous messages, when the processing for a type of messages has
been conditioned from the CMD position to a manual confirmation.
c) FP status non suitable for automatic processing
d) Correct and erroneous NOTAM messages (always).
e) MET messages (METAR, SPECI, TAF, SIGMET, ATIS, AIRMET, SNOWTAM
and GAMET) with errors.
NOTE:
1. When you receive an estimate message or CPL the counter color comes RED .
2. The queue operates on a FIFO basis (first in, first out).
3. Q Queue are prioritized, that is, depending on the message type, the insertion
criterion is different. This happens for NOTAM messages which have top
priority. So these messages are included firstly in the queue (both corrected and
erroneous) so the operator can acknowledge as soon as possible .
4. If there is no error in FPL, the modification messages cause the FP updating.
If any field (not the ones marked as optional) cannot be detected nor has errors,
the message is sent to the Q Queue for manual correction .
2. AAI Queue:
Erroneous AFTN Header messages and they are: AFTN Messages with erroneous
header and the service (SVC) message, which are not of repetition. Up to 30 messages
are displayed .

The Control and Monitoring Display Position (CMD) is one of the components of the
Tower and Approach Integrated System. Its main aim is to offer help to technical staff
in the Traffic Control Centre, providing a work environment able to monitor the whole
system in an easy but precise way in real time. For that reason, the position is connected
to the other subsystems. Its main element is a computer with screen, mouse and
keyboard.
The CMD provides the function to monitor the whole ATM system and the external
data input environments (sensors, AFTN lines, etc.).
The system has the capability to support up to two (2) CMD positions. Both positions
have the same functions, but these functions can be limited depending on the user
profile by the use of different access passwords.

ATM National Contingency Plan


Within Amman FIR
1.

OBJECTIVE
This contingency plan contains arrangements to ensure the continued safety of air
navigation in the event of partial or total disruption of air traffic services (ATS). The
contingency plan is designed to provide alternative routes, using existing airways in most
cases, which will allow aircraft operators to fly through or avoid airspace within the Amman
FIR. This contingency plan is for the implementation in the event of disruption, or potential
disruption, of air traffic services and related supporting services within Amman AoR for the
provision of such services.
Note: the Facility Contingency Plan includes procedures for alternative Aiding units in case the
main facilities are failed to operate, these procedures are included in APPENDIX A of this
contingency plan.

2. Applicability:
This Contingency plan prescribes rules governing the operation of aircraft within Jordan in
the event of partial or total disruption of air traffic services (ATS).
Major conflicts might effectively close one or more FIRs in the region; the following
procedures have been formulated, in the event of direct involvement of the Hashemite
Kingdom of Jordan in a hostile activities, which might require closing down of part or all
Airports, Navigational facilities and Surveillance facilities in addition to part or all of Jordan
Territorial Airspace.
3. AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
3.1 ATS Responsibilities
Tactical ATC considerations during periods of overloading may require re-assignment of
routes or portions thereof.
3.2 In the event that ATS cannot be provided within Amman FIR:
a) All units will immediately advise affected aircraft of possible rerouting or diversion
options due to the closure.
b) Amman ACC will inform all affected adjacent FIRs accordingly of the airspace
closure advising affected routes and available rerouting possibilities and any flow
control restrictions taking effect at the time of the closure of the airspace.
c) This information will be passed by NOTAM and all other means of communication
ensuring that operators and all relevant ATC Units have received the information.
d) All aircraft approaching the affected area under Amman Control will be advised
immediately of available options.
3.3

The Civil Aviation Regulatory Commission shall publish the corresponding NOTAM
indicating the following:

Edition No.1

Effective Date:1st of November 2013

Air Traffic Management

National Contingency Plan

a) Time and date of the introduction of the contingency measures and the airspace
closure;
b) Airport and airspace available for landing and overflying traffic, and airspace to be
avoided;
c) Airports within the affected area and their status.
d) Details of the facilities and services available or not available and any limits on ATS
provision (e.g., ACC, APP, TWR including details of available NAV aids for rerouting
of traffic), including an expected date of restoration of services if available;
e) Information on the provisions made for alternative services;
f) Establishment of ATS contingency routes;
g) Procedures to be followed by pilots; and
h) Any other details with respect to the disruption and actions being taken that
aircraft operators may find useful.
i) Procedures to be followed by coordination with neighboring ATS units at a time;
j) Specific instructions to aircrew e.g. monitoring of additional frequencies and relay
of position reports.
k) If possible, provide an estimate for the duration of the airspace closure.
4. Separation
Separation criteria will be applied in accordance with the Procedures for Air Navigation
Services-Air Traffic Management (PANS-ATM, Doc 4444) and the Regional Supplementary
Procedures (Doc 7030), and 15 minutes longitudinal separation shall be applied.
5. Level Restrictions
Where possible, aircraft on long-haul international flights shall be given priority with respect
to cruising levels.
6. Other measures
Other measures related to the closure of airspace and the implementation of the contingency
scheme within the Amman FIR may be taken as follows:
a) Suspension of all VFR operations;
b) Delay or suspension of general aviation IFR operations; and
c) Delay or suspension of commercial IFR operations. (Departures)
7. TRANSITION TO CONTINGENCY SCHEME
During times of uncertainty when airspace closure seems possible, aircraft operators should
be prepared for a possible change in routing while en-route, familiarized of the alternative
routes outlined in the contingency scheme as well as what may be promulgated by Amman
TACC via NOTAM.
In the event of airspace closure that has not been promulgated, Amman TACC should, if
possible, broadcast by (ATIS) to all aircraft in Amman airspace, what airspace is being closed
and to stand by for further instructions.
Recognizing that when closures of airspace or airports are promulgated, individual airlines
might have different company requirements as to their alternative routings, therefore
Amman TACC will be alerted to respond to any request by aircraft and react commensurate
with safety.

Edition No.1

Effective Date:1st of November 2013

Air Traffic Management

National Contingency Plan

8. TRANSFER OF CONTROL AND COORDINATION


The transfer of control and communication shall be at the common FIR boundary between
ATC units unless there is mutual agreement between adjacent ATC units. ATC units within
Amman FIR should also review current coordination requirements in light of contingency
operations or short notice of airspace closure.
9. PILOTS AND OPERATOR PROCEDURES
Pilots need to be aware that in light of current international circumstances, a contingency
routing requiring aircraft to operate abnormal traffic flows, could result in an intercept by
military aircraft. Aircraft operators must therefore be familiar with international
interception procedures contained in ICAO Annex 2 Rules of the Air, paragraph 3.8 and
Appendix 2, Sections 2 and 3, and CARC regulations Part 91 section 195.
Pilots need to continuously guard the VHF emergency frequency 121.5 MHz and should
operate their transponder at all times during flight, regardless of whether the aircraft is
within or outside airspace where secondary surveillance radar (SSR) is used for ATC
purposes. Transponders should be set on a discrete code assigned by ATC or select code
A2000 if ATC has not assigned a code. If an aircraft is being subject to interception, the pilot
shall immediately:
Follow the procedures prescribed In Jordan AIP ENR-1.12 and:
a) Follow the instructions given by the intercepting aircraft, interpreting and
responding to visual signals in accordance with international procedures;
b) Notify, if possible, the appropriate ATC unit;
c) Attempt to establish radio communication with the intercepting aircraft by making
a general call on the emergency frequency 121.5 MHz and 243 MHz if equipped;
and
d) If any instructions received by radio from any source conflict with those given by
the intercepting aircraft, the intercepted aircraft shall request immediate
clarification while continuing to comply with the instructions given by the
intercepting aircraft.
10. OVERFLIGHT APPROVAL
Aircraft operators should obtain over flight approval for flights operating through Jordanian
airspace, where required. In a contingency situation, flights may be rerouted at short notice
and it may not be possible for operators to give the required advanced notice in a timely
manner to obtain approval. Amman TACC responsible for the airspace in which contingency
routes are established should consider making special arrangements to expedite flight
approvals in these contingency situations.
11. Communications and Radar Failure.
11.1. Total or Partial Radar Failure
1. The TACC controller shall inform immediately all traffic flying within Jordan airspace
2. Implement contingency procedures if necessary (emergency separation procedure)
may be applied during the recovery time until deemed separation or standard
procedural separation is established.

National Contingency Plan

Inform the adjacent ACCs and ADOC immediately and all Jordanian aerodromes
control towers to stop all departure traffic temporarily until recovery procedures are
achieved.
In the event of complete failure of radar equipment, the radar controller shall apply
the following duties stated in MATC 1 CHAPTER 8 Para 8.8.4:
Plot the position of all identified aircraft,
Establishing Non-radar separation.
The controller shall send all arrival traffic to the published holding patterns as
appropriate AMN /VOR hold and QTR/VOR HOLD, QAA/VOR hold and MDB/NDB
hold provided up to the required level as published in AIP & MATCII.
Holding separation shall be applied according to MATC II & AIP.
The ATCO shall implement SIDs & STARs procedures and to use the deemed
separation, as published in TACC MATC II.
Supervisors shall give priority for implementing the procedures included in
APBENDIX A, when the main TACC fails to operate, such alternative procedures may
enhance the prevailing situation.

11.2 Radio Communication Failure


a) For any pre-planned disruption of communication, all adjacent FIRs will be advised
accordingly.
a) Otherwise, if the failure affects Direct Telephones and AFTN (AFS) communication
with adjacent units, all possible means of communication should be attempted, dial
up telephones, relay, fax and e-mail and defined cellular whenever available.
b) NOTAM will be issued to all affected agencies including operators stipulating
expected duration and ATC services available.
c) The above NOTAM would also include rerouting instructions, procedures to be
followed by adjacent units and pilots if applicable.
d) In the event of total communication failure the FIR would have to be considered as
temporarily closed until such time that relay facilities would enable aircraft to transit
without air to ground communications.
e) Flow control restrictions would be implemented to the appropriate extent.
11.3 Loss of Facilities Due to any Cause.
Amman TACC will advise adjacent ATC Units of the disruption and the extent it is going to
affect normal operating procedures.
12. CONTINGENCY UNIT
The TACC supervisor is assigned the responsibility of monitoring developments that may
dictate the enforcement of the contingency plan and coordination of contingency
arrangements:

1.2 Scope
The purpose of this OCP known as the Facility Contingency Plan (FCP) is to
reduce the impact and risk to the Amman TACC in the event a facility is, or
facilities are, unable to safely and efficiently provide ATC services as required
by Jordan JCAR regulations & MATC I and MATC II (Amman TACC). Also, it can
be triggered by a natural disaster, major system failure (Amman TACC 1) or
other event that directly affects personnel, the delivery of operational ATC
services, or other technical capabilities. In the event the Parent Facility or
facilities become incapacitated, all affected airspace must be assumed by
(Amman TACC 2 or 3) which are the alternative Supporting facilities for the
continuation of ATC services, to the extent possible, must also be assumed by
other Support facilities as the neighboring ACCs (Jeddah & Riyadh ACCs). The
event may require activation of the OCP, the facility Emergency Operations
Plan.
Note: when transferring from TACC1 to TACC2 or TACC3, if the duration of the
transfer is more than 10 minutes supervisor shall notify Jeddah&Riyadh ACCs to
take over, until the transfer is completed.
- TACC1: INDRA system, the main location of the ACC center.
- TACC2: THALES system, located near to TACC1, in the same
building.
- TACC3: INDRA simulator software and hardware equipment,
located in Amman Marka Airport.

9. Action plan
Partial or total failure of TACC1:
In case of TACC1 is partially failed, the following scenario is accepted for the
supervisors to follow:
a) The lower east sector is considered to be as an upper sector in case of the
main upper sector is failed to achieve the required rule within the area of
responsibilities. Also it happens that the same situation fits when the lower
east sector is failed, the upper sector will represent the main rule for the
failed sector as lower sector in addition to its main functionality.
b) The lower west sector is considered to be as TMA approach sector in case of
the main TMA radar approach sector is failed.
c) The TMA radar approach sector is considered to be the lower west sector
when the main sector is failed.
d) Aqaba approach sector can be run by the lower west sector when it fails to
provide approach services for KHIA airport.
e) When three sectors in TACC 1 are failed to perform, the supervisors shall
consider transferring plan to the aiding unit TACC2 with immediate effect.
a) Communication failure
TACC1 is supported with the following communication system, and each
sector has assigned a separate frequency:
All sectors in TACC1 are supported with five frequencies according to the
function to be performed, - upper sector 128.5 MHz-lower sector
132.525MHz-lower sector-132.425MHz-approach radar sector 128.9MHzaqaba sector-119.2 MHz- standby frequency for all sectors 128.3MHz.

Each sector is provided with stand by frequency to avoid any un-expected


communication failure, the 128.3 MHz, is available for all sectors to replace
failed frequency.

Each sector is equipped with DRC devices to support the failed


communication sector. At least 4 sectors will be equipped with DRC devices.

Verbal coordination with all ATC units concerned can be done through short
code dial system, if the main hotlines are considered to be out of service.

Two dialing PSTN (Public Service Telephone Network) telephones are


available for coordination, (+ 962 6 4451672) (+ 962 6 4451607)(+962 6
4451693)(+962 6 4451631) with all units concerned, are set in case of the
main VCS system fails.
b) Surveillance system failure
The main surveillance system INDRA is supported with three main data
resources, representing back up options for controllers to switch over, in
case of the main resource is unable to provide the data required, the
following steps are to be followed:

17

Edition No.1

Effective Date:1st of November 2013

Air Traffic Management

National Contingency Plan

In case of the main ATM ACC system INDRA is working properly, and no
data input regarding traffic situation progress, controllers are asked to adopt
the following inputs as stand by requirement:

Mono-pulse radar conventional Thales system.


Military QTRANNEH input only, where standard procedure for minimum
separation using this system has been clarified, referring to local instructions
in this regard.
ADS-B system is located in different places of Amman FIR to fill the required
coverage.

c) The following procedure shall be considered when other event may have
direct impact on personnel delivery which will create Staffing issue due to
the follows:
No Staff
Illness (Seasonal Influenza)
Weather
Industrial Relations issues
TACC chief or any other representative who has been assigned instead, to
coordinate all staffing issues, to deliver the maximum number of personnel to
perform their duties in such events.
As mentioned above, many resources are available according to the
availability of the different systems in use, basically supervisors can
nominate the best solutions when partially system is failed to perform
according to the stand by sectors.
When two sectors are reported out of service in TACC1, supervisors shall
consider running the failed sectors through TACC2; migration to the aiding
unit is possible and shall be considered, according to item 6.3. When three
sectors or more, migration to TACC2 is a must.

Control measures that should be developed and implemented to prevent and
control the spread of such diseases will vary with the situation and may
range from the application of basic hygiene rules to the provision of
appropriate protective procedure not limited to Respiratory Protection. If a
pandemic situation is declared or an outbreak of an airborne communicable
disease becomes known, control measures recommended by public health
authorities must be implemented. Nonetheless, should Respiratory
Protection be recommended, an air navigation service provider shall set up
procedure to carry out the roll of air navigation in the event of
communicable diseases and public health issues.
3.2. The ANS contingency plan shall cover all aspects of ATS including
Communicable Diseases.
3.3. The procedures outlined below are intended as a general guide to air traffic
services personnel.
3.4. All ATC units are involved in the entire process of this procedure.
