Descend via STAR/climb via SID
Ref: http://www.icao.int/airnavigation/si...aflet.pdf'
Norway has implemented this, but we find it to be somewhat confusing. How is this handled in other countries and are pilots familiar with it? We still get questions by pilots and some seem to never have heard of it. |
We´ve discussed this at work today
and everyone I talked to found that new regulation to be bs. I don´t think the new phraseology will be implemented without problems, I guess most people will ignore it. Since we´d have to tell every departure to follow the SID there´s rather going to be an amendment to the SID stating to follow all restrictions until explicitly told to disregard them. :ugh:
Who the hell comes up with these regulations? |
FAA is using it and very corrective to pilots reading back, "climb 4,000'" rather than "climb via the SID" where the SID says 4,000

"When you wish upon a star"........
eagleflyer, you can bet your bottom $ that whoever thinks this up, doesn't wear a headset........Either on the ground or in the air. |

What could possibly go wrong.......?:rolleyes:

Australia isn't ready yet. Recently notified an aspirational intention to implement 9 Nov 17.

I was told somebody took "climb via SID" literally the other day and did just that! :rolleyes: Does anybody have a clue of the whereabouts of SID?
|
NavCanada has an implementation date of Feb 27, 2017. I wouldn't be surprised if it is pushed back though.
|
Make that April 27, 2017 implementation for NavCanada

New phraseology implemented last week for NAV Canada (Apr 27th)
It would be an understatement to say that (in YYZ at least) it has caused nothing but confusion and annoyance, and to most controllers and pilots, is completely redundant. According to the AIC that came out before implementation...the way we were doing it before was "dangerous". Not sure what else to say!! Not a good idea or implementation....so far!! |

I'm not a pilot, so don't know fully how the FMS programming works, but surely it's not too difficult to make it SOP for a SID/STAR to be left in until the aircraft has passed the final point published? |
It just deletes or skips the points between your current position and the direct point. The points of the procedure that follow the direct point will be untouched. So I'm not sure what the problem is. Seems like needless effort to remove all those remaining SID/STAR points, and, frankly, a stupid one, since you can't anticipate if you'll stay on the procedure after reaching the direct, or not. Poor practice.
Also, you can't keep the points you've already passed within the active route, as they're automatically deleted, too (except the most recent one or two). So, e.g., if you fly A->B->C, once you're at C, you can't input a direct to A or B any more. Where I'm from, ATC shouldn't give directs to past points, as it'd be a bit of a hassle to input them manually into the active route again. |
This gets really complicated depending on age of FMS, manufacturer of FMS and aircraft. Bore... When sent direct to a waypoint on a star, other points along with their constraints are lost. Some FMS have 'abeam points' function available with a direct - Selecting then allows the crew to re enter the constraint, but sometimes not enter a double constraint (ie. at waypoint X, be below FL200, above 15,000ft). Other aircraft do not have this function, so you have to build it from basics!
Anyhow, having been to Canada in the last few days, all I can see is the new phraseology has increased RT congestion! Progress... |

Progress... ^^^Just to confirm, when you're cleared direct to a waypoint down the SID/STAR, ATC are expecting you to disregard the restrictions at those points between your PPOS and direct to waypoint. It's buried in the blurb of that NAV Canada document that was promulgated over the last few weeks. It's a joke of an 'update' but probably just one of those things that'll bed in over the next few years as long as no incidents & accidents can be attributed to it! |
SID/STAR phraseology cancelled today in YYZ...and in Canada from tomorrow onwards.
Too many variables and uncertainties to make it a success....in fact it was completely the opposite. No gloating here.....just relieved to be using the "old" clearances again...that didn't cause even half the problems the new stuff did!! |
