In the event of hydraulic problems, remember:
Follow the ASSIST code of practice
A ‘Acknowledge’ – S ‘Separate’ – S ‘Silence’ – I ‘Inform’ – S ‘Support’ – T ‘Time’ |
Informing your supervisor
Informing the alternate landing aerodrome, if one is to be used
Increasing vertical and lateral separation
Monitoring the progress of the flight on radar
REMEMBER:
Assist resolution of the situation by:
Asking if dangerous goods on board
Asking for the number of Persons on Board (POB)
Avoiding ATC-caused go around
Assist resolution of the situation by:
Clear RWY in accordance with local instructions. This may vary from aerodrome to aerodrome.
Keeping safety strip clear
Safety services on standby
Checking if towing equipment on stand by
If needed:
(This section applies particularly to light aircraft where the pilot may be inexperienced. Commercial pilots will usually already be familiar with these procedures.)
Assist by informing the pilot about:
The location of the nearest suitable aerodrome.
ATC should also provide details of the aerodrome as soon as possible:
RWY in use
Length
Surface
Elevation
ILS and NAV frequencies
WX information may be provided also:
Wind
Visibility
Ceiling
QNH
Fire or smoke at brakes
Pilot should notify that ready for approach, “possibility of expecting long final.”

XII. Icing
Descending aircraft
1. All water droplets freeze below a temperature of -40°C
2. Ice may also form on an aircraft descending from a cold region, passing through near 0°C rain.
Clear ice
Clear ice may form between 0 С and -15C. Nearly all lower clouds contain super-cooled water droplets.
Rime Ice
Rime Ice tends to form at temperatures of less than -15°C, found in the upper parts of clouds.
Ice may appear on the windshield, internal and external, so that visibility is affected.
The leading edges of wings may change sufficiently to upset aerodynamic flow.
Operation of retractable landing gear may also be affected.
The controls may freeze up.
Propellers may be affected strongly to produce unbalanced vibrations.
Flame-outs may occur in turbine engines.
Carburettor may become blocked up.
Faulty readings due to blockage of static and dynamic air at pressure intake.
Icing may also have an impact on the controllability of the aircraft:
There may be limitations in rate of climb or descent.
An immediate change of level and / or heading may occur.
Higher speeds may result.
Assist resolution of the problem by:
Informing your supervisor
Issuing AIREP to other ACFT, other units and MET
Avoiding prolonged holding of ACFT at icing levels
Enabling continuous climb or descent
Keeping the safety strip clear
Checking that APP-RWY lighting system 100%.
IF NEEDED: (This section applies particularly to light aircraft where the pilot may be inexperienced. Commercial pilots will usually already be familiar with these procedures.)
Assist by informing the pilot about:
The pilot should check whether the following anti-icing and de-icing systems are on:
Pitot heating
Stall warner heating
Carburettor heating
Propeller heating / de-icing
Wing anti-ice / de-ice
Alternate air supply
Windshield heating
They may also try a descent with higher power setting to increase bleed air supply.
A higher approach / landing speed could compensate for a possible increase of weight.
Partial or no flap settings on approach and landing could be tried to combat a possible increase of stalling speed.
