NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

Updated per AIP Tunisie AD2 DTMB AD 2.21
General
1.1 The procedures below are intended to prevent excessive noise on and around the airport. As the pilots' contribution is essential for reaching the aim of the conceived noise abatement procedures, they are strictly requested to respect these procedures aiming at reducing the embarrassment due to the airplane's noise around airport.

Take-off procedures
2.1 All types of airplanes
- Paths are to be followed (according to the operational standards of each individual airplane) in such a way as to reach a height of 3000 ft above the airport elevation as soon as possible.

- Rate of climb:
All departure procedures are based on the fact that airplanes are to maintain a minimum climb slope of 6% (365 ft/NM) until 300 ft.

If unable to comply, pilots are advised accordingly on requesting the start-up clearance.

Turbo-jet airplanes
In addition to the preceding provisions, pilots are to comply with the climb procedures hereunder:

1. The noise abatement procedure is not to be initiated at less than 800 ft above the airport elevation.

2. The initial climbing speed to the noise abatement initiation point shall not be less than V1 + 10 kt.

3. On reaching an altitude at or above 800 ft above the airport elevation, adjust and maintain engine power/thrust in accordance with the noise abatement power/thrust schedule provided in the aircraft operating manual. Maintain a climb speed of V2 + 10 to 20 kt with flaps and slats in take-off configuration.

4. At not more than an altitude equivalent to 3000 ft above the airport elevation, while maintaining a positive rate of climb, accelerate and retrace flaps/slats on schedule.

Approach and landing procedures
2.1 When weather conditions permit, the circuit shall be made at a height not less than 300m (1000 ft) above the airport elevation.

3.2 The airport circuit shall be:
- RWY 07: right hand circuit
- RWY 25: left hand circuit

3.3 Final approach shall not be carried out at a slope:

- less than the ILS descent course which is 3 degrees
- less than the approach course set by the PAPI red and white sectors.

Actions to be taken to reduce noise embarrassment around Monastir-Habib Bouguiba Airport:
4.1 Landing will be operated as much as possible using instrument approach procedures.

4.2 In case a visual approach is permitted, the clearance will be attended by the following conditions:

the aircraft must be aligned on the RWY centerline at a minimum 10 NM of the runway threshold with minimum over flight altitude of 3000 ft.

4.3 The operators will keep respect of approach procedures at minimum noise and drag as defined in their operations manual.

4.4 Night use restriction of thrust reverser:
The use of thrust reverser during approach and landing is avoided between 2200-0600 local time except for safety reasons.

AIRPORT CURFEWS - NONE

PREFERENTIAL RUNWAYS
Runway 07 is considered preferential for landing and runway 25 for take-off understanding that:

- The runway surface conditions are not compromised (e.g. snow, slush, ice or water or mud, rubber, oil or other substances).

- For landing, the ceiling is more than 150 m above the airport elevation or for take-off and landing, the horizontal visibility is more than 1.9 km

- The cross wind component, including gusts, is less or equal then 15 kt for dry runway or less or equal than 10 kt for wet or contaminated runway.

- The tail wind component including gusts is less than 5 kt

- Wind shear or thunder storms are not reported or expected.
