DATA LINK SERVICES IN YANGON FIR 13.1 Introduction 13.1.1 VHF data link and satellite data link will be utilized for communication between airborne and ground systems, and between controller and pilot. SATVOICE is not available. 13.1.2 Data link services are available to B747-400 and B777 FANS 1 equipped aircraft operating in the Yangon FIR daily on a 24-hour basis. 13.1.3 The introduction of data link services will not affect current procedures for non-data link equipped aircraft operating in the same airspace. 13.2 Area of Operation 13.2.1 Beyond the range of radar within Yangon FIR, Automatic Dependent Surveillance (ADS) and Controller Pilot Data Link Communication (CPDLC) will be available to data link equipped aircraft. 13.2.2 For aircraft which have established data link connection, CPDLC instead of HF, will be utilized as the primary means of communication. Those aircraft are requested to make position report via CPDLC instead of HF voice communication. ( Note : Radar coverage is 200 NM centred on radar head coordinate 165339N0960841E ) 13.2.3 Data link equipped aircraft shall conduct a HF radio check with Yangon Area Control Centre ( YACC ) prior to entering the Yangon FIR where data link services are provided. The pilots will then be informed of the primary and secondary HF voice frequencies to be used for backup communication by Yangon Radio. 13.3 Log on Procedures 13.3.1 The ATS Facilities Notification (AFN) log on is prerequisite to any ADS or CPDLC connection. Before ADS and CPDLC connections are established, the aircraft shall log on to the ground system. 13.3.2 The flight identification to be used for an AFN log on shall be exactly the same as that filed in the ATS flight plan. 13.3.3 The AFN log on address for the Yangon Area Control Centre (YACC), which is the facility providing the data link services in the Yangon FIR, is “VYYF”. 13.3.4 East bound aircraft are required to log on 10 min. prior to entering the airspace and West bound aircraft are required to log on 5 min. prior to entry. The pilot should inform ATC of the completion of CPDLC connection. 13.3.5 If an AFN log on attempt is rejected, holding the second attempt with an interval of more than 5 minutes after log on failure is recommended. 13.3.6 All IFR aircraft with CPDLC capability may log on regardless they fly meeting para.13.3.4 requirements. 13.4. Transfer of Voice Communications to CPDLC 13.4.1 The aircraft, which has completed CPDLC connection, departing from the radar coverage within Yangon FIR and entering the airspace where data link services are provided will be instructed to transfer to CPDLC as well as to contact Yangon radio by the following voice phraseology: “ CONTACT YANGON ( frequency ) AND TRANSFER TO YANGON CONTROL ON DATA LINK “ ( Note : Yangon and Yangon Control means Yangon radio and Yangon ACC, respectively ) The pilot should inform Yangon radio of the completion of CPDLC connection and send the CPDLC reports. Department of Civil Aviation AIP AMDT 3/12 ENR 1.1-10 1 JUL 12 AIP MYANMAR 13.4.2 The aircraft which has completed CPDLC connection, from adjacent FIRs to Yangon FIR entering the airspace where data link services are provided should inform Yangon radio of the completion of CPDLC connection and send the CPDLC reports. 13.5 CPDLC Specific Procedures 1) Controller-pilot dialogues opened by voice communication should be closed by voice. 2) Controller-pilot dialogues opened by CPDLC should be closed by CPDLC. 3) The down link response “WILCO“indicates that the pilot accepts the full terms of the entire up link message, including any ATC clearance/instruction. The down link response “AFFIRM“or “ROGER“is not acceptable as a pilot’s acknowledgement or reply to an ATC clearance/instruction issued by CPDLC function. 4) A pilot’s read back for an ATC clearance/instruction issued by CPDLC function is not required. 5) In order to avoid potential ambiguity in exchanging message, each CPDLC down link message should contain only a single clearance request. 6) All CPDLC messages should use pre-formatted message elements to the maximum extent possible. Free text message should be used only when an appropriate pre-formatted message element does not exist or as supplement to pre-formatted message. 13.6 CPDLC Limited Services in Yangon FIR 13.6.1 An emergency message shall be sent by CPDLC as well as by HF or VHF voice communication. 13.6.2 Special and other non-routine aircraft observation or severe turbulence should be reported by HF or VHF voice communication. 13.6.3 Flight information services will be provided by HF or VHF voice communication. 13.7 Termination of Data Link Services 13.7.1 The aircraft, which have data link connection, exiting Yangon FIR will be informed by the following CPDLC up link messages that the data link services are terminated: “CONTACT YANGON (Frequency), DATA LINK SERVICE TERMINATED” (Note: Yangon means Yangon HF.) 13.7.1.1 The pilot should acknowledge to this message by sending “WILCO”. Upon receiving the“WILCO”message, an “END SERVICE” message will be up linked to terminate the CPDLC connection. 13.7.2 The aircraft, which have data link connection, entering the range of radar within Yangon FIR will be informed by the following CPDLC up link messages that the data link services are terminated: “CONTACT (ICAO unit name) (frequency), DATA LINK SERVICE TERMINATED” 13.7.2.1 The pilot should acknowledge to this message by sending “WILCO”. 13.7.2.2 After voice communication is established with the facility to contact, the pilot should terminate the data link connection by selecting “ATC COM OFF”.

The final vector shall enable the aircraft to be established in level flight on the final approach track prior to intercepting the specified or nominal glide path of an ILS or radar approach is to be made, and should provide an intercept angle with the final approach track of 45 degrees or less. 2.3.5 The radar controller shall advise an aircraft being radar vectored for instrument approach of its position at least once prior to commencement of final approach. 2.3.6 When giving distance information, the radar controller shall specify the point or navigation aid to which instruction refers. 2.3.7 In the case of aircraft holding, pilot should plan their flight profile in such manner as to be able to achieve the minimum holding altitude at the holding fix or point if so required. 2.3.8 Speed Control 2.3.8.1 In order to reduce radar vectoring, speed control shall be applied in specified manner. 2.3.8.2 Aircraft unable to conform to the speeds specified by the radar controller should inform ATC immediately and state what speeds can be used. In the interests of accurate spacing, pilots are required to comply with speed adjustments as promptly as is feasible within their own operational constraints, and should advise ATC if circumstances necessitate a change of speed for aircraft performance reasons. 2.3.8.3 When applying speed control, the following table is used as a guideline. If the distance to destination is And if the aircraft type is And if the altitude is Then minimum speed is 10 000 AMSL and above 250 kts IAS below 10 000 AMSL 210 kts IAS 20 miles or more Turbo-jet 160 kts IAS Propeller 120 kts IAS Less then 20 miles Department of Civil Aviation AIP AMDT 3/12 ENR 1.6-4 1 JUL 12 AIP MYANMAR 2.3.9 In the event of radar failure, revised instruction will be issued to each aircraft under radar control and the procedures as published for intermediate approach without radar control will be effected. 2.3.10 Departure 2.3.10.1 Route of outbound aircraft may be varied ATC direction according to the prevailing traffic conditions. 2.3.10.2 Pilots are reminded of presence of terrain around airport. It is the pilot's responsibility to maintain adequate terrain clearance, except when being radar vectored, in which case the radar controller will ensure that adequate terrain clearance exits prior to issuing radar vector. 2.3.10.3 For ATC purpose, out bound aircraft will normally be required to cross a certain point at or above the altitude assigned. Pilots who unable to comply with the necessary climb profile must inform to ATC before departure. Alternative route should be coordinated. 2.4 Missed Approaches 2.4.1 As directed by ATC. 2.4.2 In the absence of instructions from ATC, the procedures are as in the published charts. 3.
