for all operations until further notice.

Christchurch (NZCH) — SID and Missed Approach Changes
Effective: 27 FEB 20
ATC are required to protect the missed approach (AIP ENR 1.5, para 4.20), and
may achieve this by instructing the pilot to enter the aerodrome traffic circuit.
However, when weather or other restrictions make circuit entry unavailable then
aerodrome capacity can be significantly reduced.
Changes are planned for Christchurch from 26 MAR 2020, that will provide
enhanced IFR traffic capacity in all weather (except fog), and reduce reliance on
visual circuit entry. This will include climb and speed requirements, and changes
to create divergent departure and missed approach tracks as follows:
1. NZCH Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs)
a. RWY 02 and 20 — SIDs track 15 deg west of centreline
b. RWY 29 — SIDs track either north or south of centreline
2. NZCH Instrument Approach — Missed Approach (MA) procedures
a. RWY 02 and 20 — MAs track 15 deg east of centreline
b. RWY 29 — MAs track on centreline
Cat B, C and D aircraft will no longer be instructed to enter the visual circuit to
protect the Missed Approach, but the circuit may be available on pilot request.
AIP will be amended.

This AIP SUP introduces specific criteria for publishing a climb gradient (CG)
where an ATC altitude restriction is incorporated into a SID. The intention is to
trial the criteria at NZCH. The criteria has been developed with the aim of
providing pilots with a safe and simple guide to the CG needed to achieve an
ATC altitude requirement. It will be published as an “ATM Climb Gradient” and
will cover the ATC altitude requirement and airspace containment. An obstacle
clearance CG will still be published but the ATM CG will always ensure the
obstacle clearance CG is achieved.
The ATM CG may be promulgated to an altitude, after which the standard
departure minimum CG of 3.3% would apply to the end of the SID/Transition.
That altitude may be the restriction altitude; for example, for an ATC restriction
of “At or Above 6000 ft at DOGGA”:
“ATM minimum net climb gradient 6.5% to 6000 ft”
17or for an ATC restriction of “At or Above 6000 ft at BOXER”: the altitude that the increased climb gradient is needed may be prior to the restriction: “ATM minimum net climb gradient 6.5% to 3500 ft” 18
For the second example, by flying at 6.5% from departure end of runway to
3500 ft and then 3.3% to the end of the SID, the aircraft will reach BOXER at
(or above) 6000 ft. The vertical profile also provides airspace containment; it
aligns with what is currently published for obstacle clearance when the initial
CG is greater than 3.3%.
When ATC restrictions are required on an Instrument Flight Procedure they
may be published with the “¤” symbol — this means the ATC restriction may
be amended or cancelled by ATC (refer AIP ENR 1.5 – 4, 1.5.1). However, for
departures that include “At or Above” ATC altitude restrictions, the option for
ATC to cancel the altitude requirement will not be available. Aircraft that are
unable to meet the ATM CG may need an alternative departure.
Pilots must advise ATC if a requirement cannot be met (refer AIP ENR 1.5 – 10,
2.2.11). To assist pilots the following will be incorporated into Instrument Flight
Procedures:
1. An ATM CG will provide reasonable assurance that both the ATC altitude
restriction and airspace containment will be met. In this case:
O ATM CG will be based on either:
O The point-to-point distance when flying to or from a Fly-over
waypoint, or,
O The nominal track length (based on speed — aircraft CAT or speed
restriction) when flying to or from a Fly-by waypoint.
O For ATM CG greater than 5.5% for light-twins; 6.5% for turboprops
(to 3,500 ft); 7% for jets, key operators should be consulted.
O As the ATM CG is based on a simple calculation, the actual flight path
flown may vary. Operators may wish to establish their own procedures,
at their discretion, to ensure compliance (refer AIP ENR 1.5 – 2.2.7).
In this case, aircraft operators/pilots are responsible for meeting the
ATC and airspace containment requirements.
2. Where departures have “at or above” ATC restriction on departure the
following note will be added to the chart:
“Advise ATC prior to start if unable to comply.”
3. Note: The following wording applies only to the trial at NZCH. If the trial
is successful the wording will be permanently adopted, or it may be
amended as a recommendation from the trial; it is planned to be included
in the AIP when the final version of the ATM CG criteria is agreed and
promulgated.
Proposed new wording for AIP ENR 1.5 – 9, 2.2.11:
“When an instrument departure contains a “cross at or above”
requirement, an ATM Climb Gradient (ATM CG) may be
promulgated. The ATM CG will provide reasonable assurance
that the aircraft will achieve the ATC altitudes required. The
ATM CG will incorporate airspace containment and only one
ATM CG will be promulgated, to reduce complexity. Pilots must
advise ATC if this requirement cannot be met. This requirement will
not apply if the aircraft has been cleared to a level which is below the
level in the requirement.”
AIP will be amended.

A 6-hour runway closure will be in place prior to the start of the works to change
the runway configuration. Closure times will be advised via NOTAM.
From 5 NOV 20 when the RWY 05R threshold is displaced 1235 m, the following
taxiway restrictions apply:
O TWY A west of TWY M will be closed.
O Personnel and equipment will be working in the closed portion of the runway
adjacent to TWY A10 with a maximum obstacle height of 16 ft (5 m) AGL.
Note: Site access will be via closed TWY A10 and closed western portion of TWY A.
Vehicles will not cross any live taxiways.

Under Civil Aviation Rules, Part 104 Gliders — Operating Rules, gliders may be
operating in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) within restricted areas.
Temporary restricted areas NZR298A/NZR298B and NZR299 are prescribed to
permit cloud flying without reference to air traffic services and to facilitate the
safety of air navigation. Other operations will not be confined to NZR298A/
NZR298B and NZR299 as competition tasks will be set within an area bounded
by Red Hill VRP–Waitakaruru–Te Puru–Te Weraiti–Reporoa–Rangitaiki airfield–
Taumarunui–Pirongia–Pukekohe.

The Matamata MBZ (NZB273) upper limit is temporarily amended from 4500 ft
AMSL to 1500 ft AMSL daily between 1100 and 1800 from SUN 28 NOV to SAT
5 DEC 2020 NZDT to reduce excessive radio reports.
During busy periods between 1100 and 1300, or 1600 and 1800 NZDT, pilots
conducting cross-country flights, and parachutists wishing to operate within the
Matamata MBZ, should coordinate their activities with the OIC Flying.

In practice, it is likely that activation periods will be shorter, depending on soaring
conditions.
