  1. Air Law 1.05 Airspace References: FTGU pages 99-106 TC AIM

  2. 1.05 Airspace • MTPs: • Canadian Domestic Airspace • Classes of Airspace • Altimeter Setting Regions • Types of Controlled Airspace • VFR Cruising Altitudes

  3. Canadian Domestic Airspace Divided into: Northern Domestic Airspace - NDA Southern Domestic Airspace - SDA NDA uses used True tracks for navigation SDA uses Magnetic tracks for navigation

  4. Canadian Domestic Airspace Further broken into: • High level airspace > 18000’ ASL • Contains Arctic, Northern, and Southern Control Areas • Low level airspace < 18000’ ASL • Contains • low level airways • control zones • terminal control areas • transition areas • control area extensions • military terminal control areas.

  5. Classes of Airspace Classes of Airspace • Airspace is further broken into classes based on what aircraft and what equipment is needed to fly into particular areas • The are given a letter from A to G • The next slide is an overview, we will discuss each class

  6. Classes of Airspace

  7. Classes of Airspace Class A • Only aircraft on an IFR flight plan may fly in this class • All aircraft must have a radio for 2 way communication • All aircraft must have a transponder (gives altitude and position information to ATC) • Goes from 18000’ ASL to 60000’ ASL

  8. Classes of Airspace Class B • IFR and Controlled VFR aircraft • All aircraft must have a radio for 2 way communication • All aircraft must have a transponder • Goes from 12500’ ASL to 17999’ ASL

  9. Classes of Airspace Class C • IFR and VFR aircraft (VFR aircraft need clearance to enter) • All aircraft must have a radio for 2 way communication • All aircraft must have at transponder • Often this airspace is around an airport • Goes from ground to a specified altitude, no cap given

  10. Classes of Airspace Class D • IFR and VFR aircraft • VFR aircraft have to make contact prior to entering the zone • Often this airspace is around an airport • Very similar to class C however is used around airports with less traffic

  11. Classes of Airspace Class E • IFR and VFR, no requirements for VFR aircraft • Used when there is operational need to have controlled airspace but does not meet the requirements of A, B, C, or D airspace • Often designated around an airport or for Low Level Airways • Low level airways extend from the ground to 2200’ AGL

  12. Classes of Airspace Class F • Restricted Airspace • Designated when due to the nature of the activities this airspace is unsafe to fly through • CYA – Advisory CYR – Restricted • May fly through CYA airspace, need permission to fly into CYR airspace • Altitudes and times will be given on a map

  13. Classes of Airspace Class G • Uncontrolled Airspace • All airspace not designated A, B, C, D, E or F • ATC has no responsibility or authority • Any aircraft may fly here, no special equipment needed

  14. Classes of Airspace

  15. Confirmation • Select the number (s) that correspond to the correct class of airspace A 1 – Radio req’d B 2 – Transponder req’d C 3 – CYR D 4 – Uncontrolled E 5 – Control Zone F 6 – CVFR available G 7 – IFR only 8 – VFR

  16. Altimeter Setting Regions Before we go flying we must set our altimeter to the pressure setting at the station to ensure our altimeters are reading correctly The further north you go there are less weather stations that can give a pilot the current pressure setting Therefore regions have been set for where to set your altimeter to a pressure setting and where to set your altimeter to the standard pressure – 29.92”Hg

  17. Altimeter Setting Region • Altimeter Setting Region: • Airspace of defined dimensions below 18 000ft ASL • pilot must set altimeter to the current altimeter setting and if that is not available, to the elevation of the aerodrome • Standard Pressure Region: • All airspace above 18 000ft and all airspace outside the bounds of the altimeter setting region • The altimeter is to be set to 29.92” Hg

  18. Altimeter Setting Regions

  19. Types of Controlled Airspace • Control Zone: • Defined airspace around an airport extending from the surface to a specific height • Designated around certain aerodromes to keep IFR a/c within controlled airspace during approaches and to facilitate the control of VFR and IFR traffic • Standard control zone • Radius may be either 5, 7 or 10nm

  20. Types of Controlled Airspace Control Zone

  21. Types of Controlled Airspace Control Area: A defined area of space in the vicinity of an airport located above the control zone for the purpose of protecting A/C joining nearby airways

  22. Types of Controlled Airspace • Terminal Control Area • Extended area of control around a very large and busy airport • Ex. Vancouver, Toronto • Looks like an inverted wedding cake

  23. VFR Cruising Altitudes • VFR Cruising Altitudes • Used for aircraft separation • Based on TRACK, from 3000’AGL to 12499’ASL East is least West is best 0 to 179

  24. VFR Cruising Altitudes
