NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

1. Aircraft operators shall ensure at all times that aircraft are operated in a manner calculated to cause the least disturbance practicable in areas surrounding the airport. 2. Standard Instrument Departures Strict compliance with SID is mandatory. 3. Other Instrument Departures 3.1 Cat A, B Aircraft Departures must maintain straight ahead after take-off until passing 750FT QNH before commencing turn. No takeoff shall be commenced before the departure end of the runway. 3.2 Cat C, D Aircraft 3.2.1 Departures from all runways except runway 10, must maintain straight ahead after takeoff to 5NM before commencing turn, unless otherwise cleared by ATC above 3000 feet. 3.2.2 Departures from Runway 10 must continue straight ahead to 6NM or 7NM IDE, as appropriate to the SID , before commencing turn. 3.2.3 Takeoff climb shall comply with the recommendations for Aeroplane Operating Procedures - Takeoff Procedure A, detailed in Part 5, Chapter 3 of PANS-OPS ICAO Doc 8168, Volume 1, the principal provisions of which are as follows:
Takeoff to 1500ft (Above Aerodrome Elevation)	At 1500FT	1500FT-3000FT	At 3000FT
Takeoff power Takeoff flaps Climb at V2+10 to 20 Kt (or as limited by body angle)	Reduce thrust to not less than climb power/thrust	Climb at V2+10 to 20Kt	Accelerate smoothly to enroute climb speed with flap retraction on schedule.
4. Jet aircraft on visual approach may not intercept the final approach below 2000FT QNH and shall follow a descent path which will not result in being at any time lower than the approach path which would otherwise be followed using the ILS glide path. 5. Runway 10/28 (incorporating operations on Runway 11/29, as appropriate) is the required runway between 0600 and 2300 hrs (local), when the cross wind component is 15 knots or less and the tailwind component is 5 knots or less. Aircraft are required to use this runway except when operational reasons dictate otherwise. 6. Runways will be prioritized for noise abatement purposes between 2300 and 0600 hrs (local) subject to wind (crosswind component 15 knots or less and tailwind component 5 knots or less) and operational parameters, as follows:
PRIORITY 1 2 3 4 Arrivals R/W 10 R/W 16 R/W 28 R/W 34 Departures R/W 28 R/W 34 R/W 10 R/W 16 7. Reverse thrust should not be used during landing operations on any runway between 2300 and 0600 (local), except where operational or safety reasons dictate otherwise. 8. Cat C and D aircraft using Runways 10, 18, 16 and 34 shall operate within environmental corridors which are based on runway takeoff flight path areas. The corridors have a width of 180m at the departure end of the clearway, diverging at 12.5% on each side to a maximum width of 1800m, and extending in length to 5NM from the point of origin (6NM for Runway 10). The corridors extend vertically from surface to 3000FT AMSL. The corridors apply for departures from each runway and also for approaches to the reciprocal runway, except for circling approaches.

PREFERENTIAL RUNWAYS
