7110.65P 2/19/04REFERENCE−FAAO 7110.65, Final Approach Abnormalities, Para 5−10−14.5−12−8. APPROACH GUIDANCE TERMINATIONa. Discontinue precision approach guidancewhen:1. Requested by the pilot.2. In your opinion, continuation of a safeapproach to the landing threshold is questionable.3. The aircraft passes over landing threshold.4. The pilot reports the runway/approach lightsin sight and requests to or advises that he/she willproceed visually.NOTE−A pilot’s report of “runway in sight” or “visual” is not arequest to proceed visually.b. When precision approach guidance is discontinuedin accordance with subpara a, advise theaircraft of its position and to proceed visually.PHRASEOLOGY−(Distance) MILE(S) FROM TOUCHDOWN, PROCEEDVISUALLY (additional instructions/clearance asrequired).c. After a pilot has reported the runway/approachlights in sight and requested to or advised that he/shewill proceed visually, and has been instructed toproceed visually, all PAR approach procedures shallbe discontinued.d. Continue to monitor final approach andfrequency. Pilots shall remain on final controller’sfrequency until touchdown or otherwise instructed.REFERENCE−FAAO 7110.65, Final Approach Abnormalities, Para 5−10−14.5−12−9. COMMUNICATION TRANSFERIssue communications transfer instructions.PHRASEOLOGY−CONTACT (terminal control function) (frequency, ifrequired) AFTER LANDING.NOTE−Communications transfer instructions should be delayedslightly until the aircraft is on the landing roll-out topreclude diversion of the pilot’s attention during transitionand touchdown.REFERENCE−FAAO 7110.65, Radio Communications Transfer, Para 2−1−17.5−12−10. ELEVATION FAILUREa. If the elevation portion of PAR equipment failsduring a precision approach:1. Discontinue PAR instructions and tell theaircraft to take over visually or if unable, to executea missed approach. If the aircraft executes a missedapproach, apply subpara 2 below.PHRASEOLOGY−NO GLIDEPATH INFORMATION AVAILABLE. IFRUNWAY, APPROACH/RUNWAY LIGHTS, NOT INSIGHT, EXECUTE MISSED APPROACH/(alternativeinstructions).2. If a surveillance approach, ASR or PARwithout glide slope, is established for the samerunway, inform the aircraft that a surveillanceapproach can be given. Use ASR or the azimuthportion of the PAR to conduct the approach and applyChapter 5, Radar, Section 11, Surveillance Approaches−Terminal. When the PAR azimuth is used,inform the pilot that mileage information will be fromtouchdown, and at those runways where specificminima have been established for PAR withoutglideslope, inform the pilot that the PAR azimuth willbe used for the approach.EXAMPLE−1. Approach information when PAR azimuth used:“This will be a surveillance approach to runway three six.Mileages will be from touchdown.”or“This will be a surveillance approach to runway three sixusing P−A−R azimuth. Mileages will be from touchdown.”2. Descent Instructions:“Five miles from touchdown, descend to your minimumdescent altitude/minimum altitude.”REFERENCE−FAAO 7110.65, Approach Information, Para 5−10−2.FAAO 7110.65, Descent Instructions, Para 5−11−4.b.
