CHAPTER 14. AERODROME GROUND MOVEMENT CHART — ICAO

Part 1

14.1 Function

14.1.1 This supplementary chart shall provide flight crew with detailed information to facilitate the ground movement of aircraft to and from the aircraft stands and the parking/docking of aircraft.

14.2 Applicability

14.2.1 Recommendation.- The Aerodrome Ground Movement Chart - ICAO should he made available in the manner prescribed in 1.3.2 where, due to congestion of information, details necessary for the ground movement of aircraft along the taxiways to and from the aircraft stands cannot be shown with sufficient clarity on the Aerodrome Chart - ICAO.

14.3 Coverage and scale

14.3.1 The coverage and scale shall be sufficiently large to show clearly all the elements listed in 14.6.1.

14.3.2 Recommendation.- A linear scale should be shown.

14.4 Identification

14.4.1 The chart shall be identified by the name or the city or town which the aerodrome serves and the name of the aerodrome.

14.5 Magnetic variation

14.5.1 A True North arrow shall be shown.

14.5.2 Recommendation.- Magnetic variation and its annual change should be shown.

Note.- This chart need not be True North orientated.

Questions:

1. What is the function of the chart?

2. What is the applicability of the chart?

3. How shall the chart be identified?

CHAPTER 14. AERODROME GROUND MOVEMENT CHART — ICAO

Part 2

14.6 Aerodrome data

14.6.1. This chart shall show in a similar manner all the information on the Aerodrome Chart relevant to the area depicted, including:

a) apron elevation;

b) aprons, with aircraft stands, bearing strengths or aircraft type restrictions, lighting, marking and other visual guidance and control aids, where applicable, including location and type of visual docking guidance systems;

c) geographical coordinates to at least one-tenth of a minute for aircraft stands;

Note.— This requirement may be met by a graticule which will permit the coordinates of the locations selected to be read to the required accuracy.

d) taxiways will designations, width, bearing strength or aircraft type restrictions where applicable, lighting, markings, including taxi holding positions and stop bars and other visual guidance and control aids;

e) where established, standard routes for taxiing aircraft, with their designators;

f) the boundaries of the air traffic control service;

g) relevant radio communication facilities listed with then frequencies;

h) significant obstacles to taxiing;

i) aircraft servicing areas and buildings of operational significance;

10. VOR check-point and radio frequency of the aid concerned;

k) any part of the depicted movement area permanently unsuitable for aircraft, clearly identified as such.

Question:

What aerodrome data shall the chart show?

CHAPTER 15. AIRCRAFT PARKING/DOCKlNG CHART — ICAO

Part 1

15.1. Function

15.1.1. This supplementary chart shall provide flight crews with detailed information to facilitate the ground movement of aircraft between the taxiways and the aircraft stands and the parking/docking of aircraft.

15.2. Applicability

15.2.1. Recommendation. - The Aircraft Parking/Docking Chart - ICAO should be made available in the manner prescribed in 1.3.2. where, due to the complexity of the terminal facilities, the information cannot be shown with sufficient clarity on the Aerodrome Chart - ICAO or on the Aerodrome Ground Movement Chart - ICAO.

15.3. Coverage and scale

15.3.1. The coverage and scale shall be sufficiently large to show clearly all the elements listed in 15.6.1.

15.3.2. Recommendation. - A linear scale should be shown.

15.4. Identification

15.4.1.The chart shall be identified by the name of the city or town which the aerodrome serves and the name of the aerodrome.

15.5 Magnetic variation

15.5.1.A True North arrow shall be shown.

15.5.2. Recommendation. - Magnetic variation and its annual change should be shown.

Note. This chart need not be True North orientated.

Questions:

1. What is the function of the chart?

2. What is the applicability of the chart?

3. How shall the chart be identified?

Part 2

15.6. Aerodrome data

15.6.1. This chart shall show in a similar manner all the information on the Aerodrome Chart - ICAO and the Aerodrome Ground Movement Chart - ICAO relevant to the area depicted including:

1. apron elevation;

2. aprons with aircraft stands, bearing strengths or aircraft type restrictions, lighting, marking and other visual guidance and control aids, where applicable, including location and type of visual docking guidance systems:

3. geographical coordinates to at least one tenth or a minute for aircraft stands;

Note. This requirement may be met by a graticule which will permit the coordinates of the locations selected to be read to the required accuracy.

4. taxiway entries with designations, including taxi holding positions and stop bars;

5. the boundaries of the air traffic control service;

6. relevant radio communication facilities listed with the frequencies.

7. significant obstacles to taxiing;

8. aircraft servicing areas and buildings of operational significance;

9. VOR check-point and radio frequency of the aid concerned;

10. any part of the depicted movement area permanently unsuitable for aircraft clearly identified as such.
