Use of runways:
1. Runway 12/30 is not available when the IRVR is less than 1200
m.
2. Runway 12/30 will not be available when aircraft are parked
on Block 33. Runway 12/30 is a visual runway only.
3 . Between 2100 and 0630 hours local time Monday - Friday and
1800-0900 at Saturday night and 1800 to 0630 Sunday night runway
12/30 will not be available unless:
a) Runway 06/24 is not available due to work in progress
b) surface wind conditions dictate that Runway 12/30 must be
used
Runway 12/30 will at times be available to aircraft in an emergency
except if aircraft parked on the overspill apron on Block 33 cannot
be moved. |
NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES
All aircraft inbound to or outbound from Edinburgh airport
are required to conform to the following procedures, notwithstanding
that these may at any time be departed from to the extent necessary
for avoiding immediate danger.
1. Every operator of aircraft using the airport, 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. For visual approaches to Runway 06/24 the following limitations
will apply:
a) Propeller driven aircraft whose MTWA does not exceed 5700kg
will not join the final approach to either runway below 1000ft
AAL.
b) All approaches to Runway 24 by aircraft with an MTWA in excess
of 5700 kg are to be made from a position not less than 5NM
DME on the runway extended centerline. Aircraft approaching
this point from a southerly direction are not to descend below
2000ft QFE until after crossing the Firth of Forth coastline
northbound. Aircraft approaching Runway 06 are to join the extended
runway centerline at a height of not less than 1500ft.
3. With the exception of aircraft in an emergency - between the
hours of 2230 and 0630 (Local), no visual approaches to Runway
06/24 are permitted for IFR aircraft. All IFR aircraft to carry
out ILS approaches under ATC control.
4. Aircraft using the ILS shall not descend below 2000ft (Edinburgh
QFE) before intercepting the glide path nor thereafter fly below
it, and aircraft landing without assistance from ILS or radar
shall follow a descent path which will not result in their being
at any time lower than the approach path which would be followed
by aircraft using the ILS glide path.

CONTINUOUS DESCENT ARRIVAL
(CDA)
| EDI requests that, where possible/practical, CDA are
carried out but it is not mandatory at present time. We do not measure
conformance at the present time. |
AIRPORT CURFEWS
Between 2300-0600 the aerodrome is available for passenger flights
by aircraft meeting NN/B and NN/C standards; it is strictly subject
to PPR. NN/A and non-noise certificated aircraft are not permitted
during the restriction period.
NN/B aircraft are those with a 95 PNdB (measuring
unit for the perceived noise level used instead of db) contour not
exceeding 10.5 square kilometers in area on the ground at a maximum
certificated take-off when using ICAO take-off procedure and with
a 95 PNdB noise contour at maximum certificated landing weight and
maximum flap setting not exceeding 6.5 square kilometers on the
ground when landing; all non-jet aircraft are included.
NN/C aircraft are those with a 95 PNdB contour
not exceeding 5.2 square kilometers in area on the ground at maximum
certificated take-off weight when using ICAO take-off procedure
and with a 95 PNdB noise contour at maximum certificate landing
weight and maximum flap setting not exceeding 1.0 square kilometer
on the ground when landing. |
PREFERENTIAL RUNWAYS - NONE
OPERATING QUOTA - NONE
ENGINE RUN-UP RESTRICTIONS
| There is no designated maintenance area at Edinburgh for EGR's.
A suitable site is selected taking into account wind direction and
speed, operational requirements, and environmental considerations.
EGR's are permitted daily between 0700 and 2300 hours except between
0700 and 1300 hours on a Sunday when limited EGR's are permitted
on stand. |

NOISE MONITORING SYSTEM
A noise monitoring and route tracking system is
in operation. Offenders will be penalized.
There are currently no noise regulations with respect to ramp or
APU operating restrictions. The airport receives approximately 300
noise complaints per annum, the majority attributable to alleged
poor aircraft track keeping. Noise and environmental issues are
discussed with local community representatives at the Quarterly
Airport Consultative Committee meetings and with the local flying
community at the quarterly Flight Operations Committee. The airport
liaises closely with National Air Traffic Services, the provider
of ATC services at Edinburgh who provide assistance with the investigation
of all noise complaints. |
