ENR 1.1 OPERATIONS IN CONTROLLED AIRSPACE

AIP ENR 11.5 Separation Minima for Landing

11.5.1 The appropriate wake turbulence separation standard will always be applied by ATC between landing aircraft.
11.5.2 A landing aircraft will not be permitted to cross the threshold of the runway on its final approach until:
a. a preceding departing aircraft using the same runway:
(1) is airborne, and
– has commenced a turn; or
– is beyond the point on the runway at which the
landing aircraft could be expected to complete its
landing roll and there is sufficient distance to
manoeuvre safely in the event of a missed approach;
(2) is at least 1,000M from the runway threshold, and
– has commenced the take-off run, and
– in the opinion of the controller, no collision risk exists,
and
– the aircraft taking off has a MTOW of 7,000KG or
less, and
– the landing aircraft is performance Category A and
has a MTOW below 3,000KG.
b. a preceding landing aircraft using the same runway:
(1) has vacated it and is taxiing away from the runway; or
(2) will vacate the runway without backtracking, and
– in the opinion of the tower controller, no collision risk
exists,
and
– the preceding landing aircraft has a MTOW of
7,000KG or less, and
– the following landing aircraft is performance
Category A and has a MTOW below 3,000KG; or
(3) in the case where the following landing aircraft is a helicopter,
the preceding landing aircraft is at least 300M down the runway from the threshold and ATC is satisfied that no collision risk exists. This standard is not applicable at GAAP aerodromes;
c. a preceding aircraft, using a different runway, has crossed or
stopped short of the landing aircraft’s runway.

In the above situations, a landing clearance may be issued if
ATC expect that the required runway separation standard will
exist.

11.5.3 Other than as specified in para 46.1, exceptions to separation
minima are:
a. aircraft landing in formation with respect to each other;
b. aircraft operating in different areas or lanes on aerodromes
with runways or facilities suitable for simultaneous landings.


OPERATIONS IN NON-CONTROLLED AIRSPACE
AIP ENR 62.SEPARATION MINIMA FOR LANDING

62.1 An aircraft must not continue its approach to land beyond the
threshold of the runway until:
a. a preceding departing aircraft using the same runway is airborne
and:
(1) has commenced a turn; or
(2) is beyond the point on the runway at which the landing
aircraft could be expected to complete its landing roll and
there is sufficient distance to manoeuvre safely in the
event of a missed approach;
b. a preceding landing aircraft using the same runway has vacated it and is taxiing away from the runway;
c. a preceding aircraft using another runway, has crossed or
stopped short of the landing aircraft’s runway.

62.2 At aerodromes where gliders operate to a common circuit pattern from a parallel strip outside the runway strip, the above separation minima shall apply to aircraft landing or taking off on both runways as if they were a single runway, but aircraft taxiing or stationary on one runway must not affect operations on the other. Where gliders and glider tugs operate to a contra-circuit, simultaneous operations are permitted.

Note: Pilots are reminded of their obligations to see and avoid
other aircraft (CAR 163A).
