Preface The Tingwall Aerodrome Manual provides clear, concise information about the Airport,

its systems for managing safety and the operational procedures.

The Aerodrome Manual meets the requirement of Legislation, in particular the ANO

Schedule 12, in providing the above information for the Aerodrome Operating Staff.

For clarity, it needs to be made clear that Aerodrome Operating Staff includes both

Shetland Islands Council employed AFISO and RFFS staff and anyone who is

required to be airside as part of their employment - regardless of which organisation

they work for.

Director – Infrastructure Services

Meanings of Words

May Permissive

Will A description of what will happen in a given situation. (Not to be

used as an instruction.)

Should Strongly advisable. (Per CAP 168 Introduction, Paragraph 4) -

This does not mean that compliance is optional but rather that,

where insurmountable difficulties exist, the CAA may accept an

alternative means of compliance, provided that an acceptable

safety assurance from the applicant or licence holder shows that

the safety requirements will not be reduced below that intended

by the requirement.

Must, is to, are to,

shall

A mandatory instruction / requirement.

Part 1 – Document Administration Section 2 - 1 Section 2 Purpose and Structure of Manual


PURPOSE

The documentation associated with the operational management of an airport is of

necessity complex. It must:

Satisfy the requirements of legislation, primarily the Air Navigation Order

and Health and Safety legislation.

Meet the requirements of the UK Civil Aviation Authority.

Be an information system which assists personnel to perform their role

correctly.

Define the operational procedures.

Identify accountabilities.

Whenever possible avoid duplication of subject matter.

Be reliable and user friendly.

Note. This Manual provides some additional information, particularly concerning the

SMS to assist the Aerodrome Operating Staff.

STRUCTURE

The Manual structure follows broadly that detailed by ICAO in the Manual of Aerodrome

Certification [Doc 9774] except that the Emergency Orders are issued as a separate

document.

The Manual also contains the information detailed in CAA document CAP 168 except

that to avoid duplication of information, where other Tingwall documents provide the

required information, this Manual cross refers to such other documents.

Part 1 – Document Administration Section 2 - 2 Section 2 Purpose and Structure of Manual


The constituent parts of the Aerodrome Manual are as follows.

Part 1 - Document Administration and General Information about the Aerodrome

Part 2 - Aerodrome Plans

Part 3 - Aerodrome Technical Information

Part 4 - Aerodrome Operating Instructions

Part 5 - The Safety Management System

Part 6 - Emergency Orders

The Aerodrome Manual is a living document and will be distributed as described

overleaf. However changes occur for a multiplicity of reasons and it will be necessary

to bring such matters to the attention of all relevant recipients of the Aerodrome Manual.

All such changes to information and published procedures will be notified using the

following systems:

Aerodrome Manual Supplements – will be used to notify all changes to existing

information and procedures together with all new information and procedures. These

will be issued as they occur and shall be incorporated into the document proper at the

next amendment. (Where changes or new information of a purely administrative nature

are identified, no Supplements shall be issued. These changes / additions shall be

incorporated at the next amendment). [Aerodrome Manual Supplements constitute an

integral part of the Aerodrome Manual].

Temporary Airport Operating Procedures [TAOIs] - will be used to notify all

temporary changes to existing information and procedures. These will be issued as

necessary but will not be incorporated into the document proper. TAOIs are a

constituent part of the Aerodrome Manual during their period of validity.

Ops Notices. These are not part of the Aerodrome Manual but are used by Tingwall

Airport simply as a means of providing domestic information e.g. Details of new staff;

training courses etc.

Ops Notices and TAOIs shall be filed in Tingwall Airport’s Read It File. The Read It File

is split into two sections – Operational and Administrative. Active TAOIs and Ops

Notices are filed in the Operational section until signed by all AFISOs.

The Accountable Manager will ensure that reviews of all Aerodrome Manual

Supplements, Temporary Operating Instructions and Operation Notices are undertaken

quarterly at Operations meetings (‘OPS 3’).

Part 1 – Document Administration Section 3 - 1 Section 3 Distribution and Amendment

Amendment Proposals

Anyone who is required to work to the policies, regulations and procedures detailed within

the Aerodrome Manual, or may be involved in activities at Tingwall, or who may respond

to incidents at Tingwall may make suggestions as to how the Aerodrome Manual may be

improved or safe working practices enhanced.

Everyone who works airside has a responsibility to follow the Aerodrome Manual

and to highlight areas where the Manual is deficient.
