7754 Vol 1 Flyleaf - ICAO Public Maps

Part V
AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT (ATM)
1. Controlled airspace should be established so as to
encompass the climb to cruising level of departing aircraft,
the cruising levels on ATS routes normally used by IFR
flights and the descent from such levels of arriving aircraft,
except in those cases where the type and density of traffic
clearly do not justify the establishment of controlled airspace.
Provisions should be made to ensure that SST aircraft are
able to conduct the transonic and supersonic phases of their
flights within controlled airspace, regardless of density of
traffic.
[Annex 11, Chapter 2]
Note.— Detailed provisions regarding the type of air
traffic service required are highlighted in 1 to 7 of Part V.II
— ATS.
2. The lower limit of controlled airspace should be
established so that:
a) IFR flights requiring the provision of air traffic control
service can remain within controlled airspace during the
entire duration of their flight; and
b) flights not requiring ATC services are not unnecessarily
restricted.
In the vicinity of aerodromes, the establishment of the lower
limit of controlled airspace should also take into account
those portions of the airspace which may be required by ATC
in order to vector aircraft by radar.
[Annex 11, 2.9.3]
3. Controlled airspace should be established in the
upper airspace up to flight level 460 and throughout the
whole control area whenever area type air traffic control
service is provided.
[EUM/VI, Rec 8/13]
Part V.I
AIRSPACE MANAGEMENT (ASM)
V-1
4. Airspace restrictions and/or temporary airspace
reservations for specific users or purposes should only be
imposed when the intended purpose cannot be met by other
arrangements. If established, such restrictions and/or
reservations should be kept to the minimum, both in extent
and duration consistent with the purpose they serve and
should be withdrawn as soon as possible. In addition, any
restricted and/or reserved airspace should be made available
for general use whenever the activities having led to their
establishment are temporarily suspended, e.g. during
weekends, at night, etc. (18, Part II — GEN also refers).
[Annex 11, 2.17]
5. Where users have specific requirements in portions
of the airspace extending over the territory of a number of
States and/or over the high seas, arrangements should be
made between States concerned for the coordinated use of
airspace, facilities and procedures in order to ensure
maximum uniformity.
CIVIL/MILITARY COORDINATION
[Annex 11, 2.16 and 2.17;
Air Traffic Services Planning Manual
(Doc 9426), Part II, Section 1, Chapter 2]
6. States should aim at the creation of one single
integrated system catering to both civil and military
requirements. The related organization of the airspace
should satisfy the requirements of all users in an optimum
way.
7. States should establish civil/military coordination
bodies to ensure, at all levels, the coordination of decisions
relating to civil and military problems and airspace and
traffic management (paragraph 4 above refers).
