13.Rules of the AirAll persons involved in flight operations shall comply with international treaties and conventions as well as European and national air law regulations of the states operated in and overflown. 13.1Visual and instrument flight rulesSERA - Standardised European Rules of the Air apply. 13.2Territorial application of the rules of the airThis regulation applies to airspace users and aircraft: operating into, within or out of the European Union; bearing the nationality and registration marks of a Member State of the Union, and operating in any airspace to the extent that they do not conflict with the rules published by the State having jurisdiction over the territory overflown. Differences to the SERA regulation and treaties in non-European member states are outlined in the [XXX Manual] sections Rules of the Air, Emergency and Entry Requirements. For the specific country referenced in Part-C of this Manual. 13.3Communication procedures, including communication failure proceduresAn aircraft operated as a controlled flight shall maintain continuous air-ground voice communication watch on the appropriate communication channel of, and establish two-way communication as necessary with, the appropriate ATC unit. Communication failure procedures are outlined in the [XXX Manual] the section on Emergency. For the specific country referenced in Part-C of this Manual. Whenever appropriate, a listening watch of the emergency frequency 121.5 Mhz should be maintained on the secondary radio set. 13.4Information and instructions relating to the interception of civil aircraftExcept for intercept and escort service provided on request to an aircraft, the pilot-in-command of a civil aircraft, when intercepted, shall: immediately follow the instructions given by the intercepting aircraft, interpreting and responding to visual signals; notify, if possible, the appropriate air traffic services unit; attempt to establish radio-communication with the intercepting aircraft or with the appropriate intercept control unit, by making a general call on the emergency frequency 121,5 MHz, giving the identity of the intercepted aircraft and the nature of the flight; and if no contact has been established and if practicable, repeating this call on the emergency frequency 243 MHz; if equipped with SSR transponder, select Mode A, Code 7700, unless otherwise instructed by the appropriate air traffic services unit; if equipped with ADS-B or ADS-C, select the appropriate emergency functionality, if available, unless otherwise instructed by the appropriate air traffic services unit. [Tables for instructions and visual signs are attached in Annex X of this manual and are provided as handouts in every aircraft of the company.] 13.5Aerodrome Signals, Marshaller, and Emergency Hand SignalsUpon observing or receiving any of the signals given in Appendix X of this manual, aircraft shall take such action as may be required by the interpretation of the signal given. Handouts of these signal tables are provided in every aircraft of the company. 13.6Time system used in operationCoordinated Universal Time (UTC) shall be used and shall be expressed in hours and minutes and, when required, seconds of the 24-hour day beginning at midnight. A time check shall be obtained before operating a controlled flight and at such other times during the flight as may be necessary. 13.7ATC clearances, adherence to flight plan and position reports13.7.1ATC clearanceAn ATC clearance shall be obtained prior to operating a controlled flight, or a portion of a flight as a controlled flight. Such clearance shall be requested through the submission of a flight plan to an ATC unit. The pilot-in-command of an aircraft shall inform ATC if an ATC clearance is not satisfactory. In such cases, ATC will issue an amended clearance, if practicable. Whenever an aircraft has requested a clearance involving priority, a report explaining the necessity for such priority shall be submitted, if requested by the appropriate ATC unit. Potential re-clearance in flight If, prior to departure, it is anticipated that, depending on fuel endurance and subject to re-clearance in flight, a decision may be taken to proceed to a revised destination aerodrome, the appropriate air traffic control units shall be so notified by the insertion in the flight plan of information concerning the revised route (where known) and the revised destination. An aircraft operated on a controlled aerodrome shall not taxi on the manoeuvring area without clearance from the aerodrome control tower and shall comply with any instructions given by that unit. Definition: “flight plan” means specified information provided to air traffic services units, relative to an intended flight or portion of a flight of an aircraft. It can be “filed” or transmitted by verbal/digital communication.
If an emergency arises, which necessitates immediate action by the aircraft, the appropriate ATS unit shall be notified, as soon as circumstances permit, of the action taken and that this action has been taken under emergency authority. 13.7.3Position reportsUnless exempted by the competent authority or by the appropriate air traffic services unit under conditions specified by that authority, a controlled flight shall report to the appropriate air traffic services unit, as soon as possible, the time and level of passing each designated compulsory reporting point, together with any other required information. Position reports shall similarly be made in relation to additional points when requested by the appropriate air traffic services unit. In the absence of designated reporting points, position reports shall be made at intervals prescribed by the competent authority or specified by the appropriate air traffic services unit.
