Order 7110.65P, Air Traffic Control, with changes

7110.65P CHG 22/17/056. Wind shear.7. Volcanic ash clouds.NOTE−Pilots may forward PIREPs regarding volcanic activityusing the format described in the Volcanic ActivityReporting Form (VAR) as depicted in the AIM, Appendix 2.8. TERMINAL. Braking Action Advisories arein effect.REFERENCE−FAAO 7110.65, Braking Action Advisories, Para 3−3−5.P/CG Term− Braking Action Advisories.b. Record with the PIREPs:1. Time.2. Aircraft position.3. Type aircraft.4. Altitude.5. When the PIREP involves icing include:(a) Icing type and intensity.(b) Air temperature in which icing isoccurring.c. Obtain PIREPs directly from the pilot, or if thePIREP has been requested by another facility, youmay instruct the pilot to deliver it directly to thatfacility.PHRASEOLOGY−REQUEST/SAY FLIGHT CONDITIONS.Or if appropriate,REQUEST/SAY (specific conditions; i.e., ride, cloud,visibility, etc.) CONDITIONS.If necessary,OVER (fix),orALONG PRESENT ROUTE,orBETWEEN (fix) AND (fix).d. Handle PIREPs as follows:1. Relay pertinent PIREP information toconcerned aircraft in a timely manner.2. EN ROUTE. Relay all operationally significantPIREPs to the facility weather coordinator.3. TERMINAL. Relay all operationally significantPIREPs to:(a) The appropriate intrafacility positions.(b) The FSS serving the area in which thereport was obtained.NOTE−The FSS is responsible for long line dissemination.(c) Other concerned terminal or en route ATCfacilities, including non−FAA facilities.(d) Use the word gain and/or loss whendescribing to pilots the effects of wind shear onairspeed.EXAMPLE−“Delta Seven Twenty−one, a Boeing Seven Twenty−seven,previously reported wind shear, loss of Two Five knots atFour Hundred feet.”“U.S. Air Seventy−six, a D−C Niner, previously reportedwind shear, gain of Twenty−Five knots between NinerHundred and Six Hundred feet, followed by a loss of FiveZero knots between Five Hundred feet and the surface.”REFERENCE−AIM, Wind Shear PIREPs, Para 7−1−25.2−6−4. WEATHER AND CHAFF SERVICESa. Issue pertinent information on observed/reportedweather or chaff areas. Provide radarnavigational guidance and/or approve deviationsaround weather or chaff areas when requested by thepilot. Do not use the word “turbulence” in describingradar-derived weather.1. Issue weather and chaff information bydefining the area of coverage in terms of azimuth (byreferring to the 12−hour clock) and distance from theaircraft or by indicating the general width of the areaand the area of coverage in terms of fixes or distanceand direction from fixes.2. Issue the level of echo intensity when thatinformation is available.3. When equipment limitations exist, controllersshall, at a minimum, ensure that the highestavailable level of echo intensity within their area ofjurisdiction is displayed.2−6−2Weather Information
