1.2.1 Start-up permission

Pilots of aircraft intending to make an IFR flight must have obtained permission for start-up from Budel Aerodrome Information before starting their engines. A request for start-up shall be made to Budel Aerodrome Information after all preparations for departure have been made (doors closed etc.) and shall include:

• aircraft identification (e.g. PHSPY).
• position (e.g. opposite tower).
• flight rules (e.g. IFR).
• destination (e.g. Brussels).
• request start-up (e.g. request start-up).

After co-ordination with the ATC unit(s) concerned a permission for start-up will either be issued immediately or at a specified time. The pilot shall be able to comply with start-up and taxi permission, since ATC planning of outbound traffic (involving en route clearance and co-ordination with adjacent ACCs) is based on the start-up time. Any delay in start-up or taxiing shall be immediately reported to Budel Aerodrome Information.

In case of indefinite delay the probable duration of the delay will be given.

1.2.2 En route clearance

1.4.1 General remarks

• Transition altitude: 3000 ft AMSL.
• Turn radii based on a 25° bank angle.
• Radial interception angle: 45°.
• The SIDs are based on an average climb rate of 2000 ft/min.
• SIDs have to be considered as minimum noise routings which shall be strictly adhered to.
• MAX 250 KIAS below FL 100 unless otherwise instructed.
• Initiate turns in due time in order not to overshoot radials.
• RNAV: The Netherlands encourages the use of RNAV routes stored in a pre-programmed navigation database on board of aircraft. Although there may be differences between the RNAV and conventional description of a route (vertically: turn altitudes and/or laterally: turn anticipation effects), the resulting flight paths are considered identical by ATC. Therefore, flying the route using the RNAV coding from the navigation database will not result in route violations.
  Furthermore:
  • Connect FMS as early as possible.
  • The EH-waypoints shall not be used in RTF procedures.
  • Turn anticipation is mandatory for all waypoints except those which are underlined, these waypoints shall be overflown.
  • The navigation aid (e.g. VOR) mentioned in the column "Expected path terminator" is for selection of MAG station declination only.

1.4.2 Specific remarks

1. Only for aircraft with destination EHGG, MAX FL 095.
2. Only for aircraft with destination EHRD, MAX FL 075.

Air traffic control service generally will be terminated when leaving controlled airspace.

2.2.1 Arrival clearance

At, or before, entering the Amsterdam Control Area, an arrival clearance will be issued by Amsterdam ACC or MILATCC Schiphol containing:

1. Standard arrival route1) or direct route.
2. Main landing runway.
3. Level instructions (normally descent instructions).
4. Any other necessary instructions or information.

1. when cleared via a standard arrival route (STAR), the clearance limit is the initial approach fix (lAF).

2.2.2 Level restriction

Flights via HELEN should comply with the following crossing condition: cross HELEN at FL 180 or below, unless otherwise instructed.

2.2.3 Transfer of control

Transfer to MILATCC Schiphol takes place before the flight is entering the Nieuw Milligen TMA D.

1. When Kleine-Brogel is closed: no transfer from MILATCC Schiphol.
2. When Kleine-Brogel is open: to Kleine-Brogel APP over IAF.

2.3.1 Approach instructions

Approach instructions will be issued by MILATCC Schiphol, containing:

1. Clearance limit, route and level.
2. Runway in use.
3. EAT, if holding procedures are applied.
4. QNH.
5. Transition level.
6. MET information.
7. Runway condition.

2.3.2 Transfer to Budel Aerodrome Information

2.4.1 Final approach procedures

2.4.2 Missed approach procedure

See relevant approach chart (AD 2.EHBD-IAC-21). In case the missed approach procedure has to be executed, ATC has to be informed as soon as possible on the current frequency.

2.4.3 Missed approach while circling to land RWY 03

Inform ATC. Climb to 700 ft AMSL, then complete the turn to RWY 03 MAG track (see figure). At 7 DME BBL turn left to EH376 and climb to 1200 ft AMSL. At EH376 inititate a right turn to track 090° MAG to EH377 and climb to 2000 ft AMSL. Intercept radial MAS 352 to IAF BUDIP.

2.5.1 General

The pilot of an IFR flight shall follow the general procedures for IFR flights (see ENR 1.3 paragraph "Communication Failure"). In addition, for arriving flights, the following communication failure procedures apply.

• Proceed according the current flight plan route to BUDIP.
• Maintain the last cleared and acknowledged flight level.
• After arrival over BUDIP, intercept the holding pattern.
• Commence descent to 3000 ft AMSL at, or as near as possible to, the ETO over BUDIP.
• After reaching 3000 ft AMSL leave BUDIP and carry out an instrument approach procedure to RWY 21 (AD 2.EHBD-IAC-21).
