1. VFR FLIGHTS
1.1 VFR fl ights in the Control Zone will be given
routeing instructions and/or altitude restrictions
in order to integrate VFR fl ights with
other traffi c.
1.2 via the Visual Reference Points. See T1 &
T3.
1.3 Pilots of VFR fl ights are reminded of the
requirement to remain in VMC at all times
and to comply with the relevant parts of the
Low Flying Rules, and must advise ATC if
at any time they are unable to comply with
the instructions issued.
1.4 Helicopters: Whenever possible helicopter
fl ights in the Edinburgh Control Zone will be
cleared on direct routeings under VFR (or,
when requested at night, on Special VFR
clearance in accordance with the procedures
for Special VFR fl ights).
2. SPECIAL VFR CLEARANCE
2.1 Clearance may be requested for Special
VFR fl ight in IMC or at night within the
Edinburgh Control Zone and will be given
whenever the traffi c situation permits. These
fl ights are subject to the general conditions
laid down for Special VFR fl ights.
2.2 Special VFR clearance will include routeing
and maximum altitude instructions and may
not necessarily be confi ned to the Entry/
Exit Lanes. Pilots holding a Private Pilots
Licence (Aeroplanes) are reminded of the
visibility requirements of Special VFR fl ights
laid down in Schedule 8 of the Air Navigation
(No 2) Order 1995, which may require
them to request routeing via the notifi ed
Entry/Exit Lanes.
2.3 Pilots are reminded that they must at all
times when operating on Special VFR
clearance, remain clear of cloud and in
sight of the surface and in fl ight conditions
which will enable them to determine their
fl ight path and keep clear of obstacles. Due
to the nature of the terrain in the vicinity of
Edinburgh Airport radar vectoring will not
normally be applied to aircraft operating on
Special VFR clearance.
2.4 Pilots are reminded that a Special VFR
clearance applies only to fl ight within the
CTR and does not extend to fl ight within
the surrounding Airspace of the Scottish
Terminal Control Area.
2.5 Special VFR clearance will not normally
be granted for fl ights operating VMC or for
fl ights by aircraft exceeding 5700kg MTWA.
3. ENTRY/EXIT LANES
3.1 To permit aircraft to operate to and from
Edinburgh Airport in IMC but not under IFR
the following entry/exit lanes have been
established for use, under the conditions
stated, as follows:
a. a lane 3nm wide, known as the
Polmont Lane, with centre-line the M9
Motorway extending from Grangemouth
(near the western boundary
of the Edinburgh Control Zone) eastwards,
via the Polmont Roundabout,
Linlithgow Loch and Philpstoun to a
point at which it joins the Edinburgh
Aerodrome Traffi c Zone;
b. a lane 3nm wide, known as Kelty
Lane, with centre-line the M90 Motorway
extending from Kelty (near the
northern boundary of the Edinburgh
Control Zone) southwards, across the
Forth Road Bridge, to a point at which
it joins the Edinburgh Aerodrome Traffi
c Zone;
c. use of the lanes is subject to clearance
being obtained from ATC
Edinburgh, irrespective of prevailing
weather conditions. This clearance is
to be obtained by non-radio equipped
aircraft before take-off and by radio
equipped aircraft before entering the
lane;
d. aircraft using the lanes must remain
clear of cloud and in sight of the
ground or water, not above 2000ft
(Edinburgh QNH), and in fl ight visibility
of not less than 3km;
e. an aircraft using a lane shall keep the
centre-line on its left, unless otherwise
instructed by ATC for separation
purposes. In these circumstances
ATC will pass traffi c information to the
aircraft concerned.
f. pilots of aircraft are responsible for
maintaining adequate clearance from
the ground or other obstacles.
3.1 Additionally, to permit the effective integration
of traffi c, fl ights operating in VMC and
under VFR may be required by ATC to follow
these routes as detailed in paragraphs
1.1 to 1.4.
