Decision of the General Administration of Civil Aviation of China on the Revision of

Regulations on the Formulation and Implementation of Minimum Standards for the Operation of Aircraft Airports

(CCAR-97FS-R2)

In order to make the formulation of minimum standards for the operation of China's civil airports and civil-military airports<

In order to make the formulation of minimum standards for the operation of China's civil airports and military-civilian joint-use airports consistent with other regulations of China's civil aviation, and to further improve the safety level of civil aviation, it is decided to amend the "Regulations on the Formulation and Implementation of Minimum Standards for the Operation of Aircraft Airports" (CCAR-97FS), which was issued and put into effect by Decree No. 98 of the General Administration of Civil Aviation of China (GACAC) on Feb. 26, 2001, as follows:

Article 62 (1) is amended to read: "Class I precision approach shall use Class I

precision approach lighting system, of which runway lights include runway edge lights, entrance lights and runway end

lights; Class II and III precision approach shall use Class II and III precision approach lighting system

, and runway lights shall be used in the Class I precision approach lighting system, and runway lights shall be used in the Class II precision approach lighting system. Lights shall be added to the runway center

line lights and grounding strip lights on top of the Class I Precision Approach Lighting System."

II. Article 100 is amended to read, "On runways with runway edge lights but no runway centerline lights,

if the runway edge lights are not operating, all types of operations shall be permitted only during daylight hours."

3. Article 101 was amended to read: "If the runway centerline lights are not operating, the minimum standard for a Class I

precision approach landing is runway visibility (VIS) or runway visual range (RVR)

800 meters, with no effect on the minimum standard for a non-precision approach landing.

The minimum standard for a Class II or Class III precision approach landing must be operating. Runway centerline lights must be operational."

runway entrance lights and runway end lights."

The Regulations for the Establishment and Implementation of Minimum Standards for Aircraft Airport Operations (CCAR-97FS

-R1), which was issued and implemented by Decree No. 98 of the General Administration of Civil Aviation of China (CAAC) on February 26, 2001,

shall be reissued with the corresponding revisions in accordance with this Decision.

This decision shall come into force on the date of its issuance.

Description of the Decision of the General Administration of Civil Aviation of China on the Revision of the Regulations on the Formulation and Implementation of Minimum Standards for Aircraft Airport Operations

<Development and Implementation of the Regulations on Minimum Standards for Aircraft Airport Operations

(CCAR-97FS

-R2)

The Regulations on the Formulation and Implementation of Minimum Standards for Aircraft Airport Operations (CCAR-97FS

-R1 ) (hereinafter referred to as the Provisions), since its release, has played a positive role in formulating the minimum standards for airport operations

, regulating the airport operations of aircraft, controlling the flight crews, signing releases, and

operations of airlines, and improving the level of operational

safety by the air traffic management authorities in implementing controls in the airport area. With the gradual improvement of Civil Aviation of China's regulations on aircraft operation, it has been found in the course of operation that individual provisions of these Regulations are inconsistent with

other aviation regulations, and some expressions are not clear. The issues related to the revision of the Regulations are explained as follows:

Article 62(1) of the Regulations is inaccurate in terms of the requirements for Class I and II precision approach lighting systems for night flights. There is a lack of requirements for Category III precision approach lights.

Regarding the requirements for runway lights for Type I precision approaches, the runway lights stipulated in Annex XIV of the Convention on International Civil Aviation (ICA) for airports only include runway edge lights, entrance lights and runway end

lights, and there is no requirement for runway centerline lights. However, it is recommended that:

1. Runway centerline lights should be installed on Class I precision approach runways, especially when the runway is used for high-speed landing aircraft or when the width between the runway edge lights is more than 50M;

2. Runways intended for takeoffs under the minimum standard condition of runway visual range of less than 400M must be equipped with runway centerline lights;

3. Runway centerline lights shall be provided;

3. Runways intended for take-off of aircraft with very high take-off speeds under minimum standard conditions of runway line-of-sight equal to or greater than about 400 M shall be provided with runway centerline lights, particularly if the width between runway edge lights is greater than 50 M.

Runway centerline lights shall be provided.

For Class II and III precision approaches, it is required to use Class II and III precision approach lighting

systems, and runway lights shall be set up with runway center

line lights and runway ground strip lights on top of the Class I precision approach lighting system.

Secondly, Article 100 of the Regulations is not clear in its formulation, which originally reads: "At airports with runway edge lights but no runway centerline lights, if the runway edge lights are not in operation, all

types of operations are allowed to be carried out only during the daytime;" it is a complementary provision to Article 63 of the Regulations, which states that the runway edge lights must be installed on the basis of a Class I precision approach light system. p>

complementary.

3. Article 101 of the Regulations is inconsistent with the criteria in Tables 1-5 of Annex I of the Regulations and other aviation regulations. Therefore, Article 101 is amended as follows:

"If the runway centerline lights are not working, the minimum standard for Category I precision approach landing is 800 meters of runway visibility (VIS) or runway visual range (RVR), and it has no effect on the minimum standard for non-precision approach landing.

The runway centerline lights for Category II and III precision approaches must be working. work.

D. Paragraph 1.2.2 of Annex I of the Regulations, "Minimum Standards for Airport Operations", is relatively simple in terms of visual facilities, and the standards for visual facilities are now explained in detail.
