Separation Between Aircraft???

[Nick1]

Hi can anyone tell me the separation in Australia between IFR & IFR, IFR & VFR, IFR & SVFR, SVFR & VFR in CTA CTR, Class G, GAAP?

Longitudinal separation?

And where would I find this stuff in the CASA REG`s?

In no particular order.

10 minutes, 5 minutes, 2 minutes, 20 nm, 15nm, 10 nm, 5nm, 3nm, "green between"
and none.

There are probably a few I have left out.

The section in The Manual of Air Traffic Services [MATS] on longitudinal separation is about 30 pages long.

AA

Also include, 3000 feet, 2000 feet, 1000 feet, 500 feet and visual separation, wake (vortex) turbulance separation and lateral separation too. From a pilots point of view it's all in the AIP.

The application of separation is up to ATC as amberale says the MATS details how to achieve it and that 'chapter' would exceed 100 pages.

A little bit of light reading....
