ATC (Wanaka Tower) will be in attendance for the period of the airshow, refer AIPSUP 50/10.

In the period preceding and following the airshow large numbers of aircraftmovements may occur in the vicinity of Wanaka aerodrome and the Lake Hawea,Lake Wanaka and Lake Dunstan areas.

Outside the hours of service of Wanaka Tower ALL PILOTS are reminded to adhereto unattended airfield procedures and in particular to be alert for highperformance aircraft operations as well as slow non-radio equipped vintageaircraft.

Queenstown airspace

VFR aircraft intending to operate in Queenstown controlled airspace should contactQueenstown Information on 128.0 MHz prior to entering controlled airspace foraerodrome information and any anticipated delays due increased traffic activity.

VFR aircraft are not to enter Queenstown controlled airspace unless an airspaceentry clearance has been issued and read back correctly.

ATIS: 127.6 MHz (an off-watch message will be broadcast on the ATISfrequency outside TWR hours of service)

Prescribed pursuant to Civil Aviation Rules, Part 71 Designation of Airspace, under adelegated authority issued by the Director of Civil Aviation.

Air Traffic ServiceAirways NZ will provide an aerodrome control service within the Wanaka CTR/D andon the manoeuvring area at Wanaka aerodrome. See also “Flight Planning andBriefing” below.

All aircraft must have a serviceable VHF radio which is capable of communicatingwith Wanaka Tower. Aircraft must listen to the ATIS on 127.6 MHz before enteringWanaka CTR/D/NZR998. All frequencies used by Wanaka Tower, including the ATIS,have coverage limitations due to terrain.

An aerodrome control service will not be provided:S during approved practice times; andS when the airshow is in progress.No airways service aerodrome charges will be applicable for operations at Wanaka.

Procedures for Operation within NZR998Operations within NZR998 will be restricted to display aircraft and emergencyaircraft only:S on the display practice days when display practice is taking place; andS on the airshow days when the airshow is in progress;

The following practice and airshow periods will apply:S THU 1 APR 1000–1100, 1200–1300, 1400–1500 NZDT.S FRI 2 APR 0730–0830, 1000–1100, 1200–1300, 1400–1500 NZDT.S SAT 3 APR 0930–1630 NZDT.S SUN 4 APR 0930–1630 NZST.Note:S NZDT is 13 hours ahead of UTC; NZST is 12 hours ahead of UTC.S Daylight saving (end of NZDT/start of NZST) ceases at 3:00am SUN 4 APR 10(1004031400 UTC).

S Changes will be notified by NOTAM.S Variations on airshow days may be permitted only by the Display Director.S Designated arrival times are the periods outside or between the practice andairshow periods. Check these times carefully as Wanaka Tower will not be onwatch during the practice and airshow periods.

Arriving pilots of VFR aircraft should note that an individual Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998entry clearance will not normally be issued by the TWR due to the automaticapproval noted under “Arrival Procedures”. Pilots reporting at required inboundreporting points should expect to receive a confirmation of their currentrunway-sequence number and traffic information on the aircraft immediately aheadof them. ATC will not normally update individual runway-sequence numbers asaircraft land ahead, until a landing clearance is available.Entry into Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998 via the TARRAS and DUNSTAN arrival proceduresis approved during designated arrival times — no further authorisation is required.Aircraft wishing to join using other procedures must obtain a specific clearance toenter Wanaka CTR/D and NZR998, and may be accommodated if traffic and safetypermit, but delays must be expected.Permission to enter and operate within Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998 will be withdrawnfor individual pilots who do not comply with instructions and procedures containedwithin this AIP Supplement, and any amendments thereto advised by NOTAM or byWanaka Tower. If safety or weather dictates, operations within WanakaCTR/D/NZR998 may be suspended at any time.Pilots operating within Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998 must turn the aircraft landingand/or anti-collision lights on, unless otherwise instructed by ATC.GeneralTo eliminate excess radio clutter, position reports should be accurate and concise.This is the basis of traffic information for all aircraft.Transponder equipped aircraft should at all times leave their transponder “ON” andoperate Mode C as an additional aid to ACAS equipped aircraft for collision avoidance.Pilots should determine the required arrival procedure and runway-in-use prior toreaching the Wanaka area. This information will be available on the ATIS (127.6MHz), from Christchurch Information, and from adjacent ATS units.All pilots are reminded that on arrival they are responsible for ensuring thatpassengers remain on board their aircraft until escorted by the pilot or cabin crewinto the public enclosure. On departure all pilots must arrange to meet theirpassengers in the public area and then escort them through the departure gate totheir aircraft.Departing aircraft, on vacating Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998, must report to WanakaTower then continue with enroute frequencies and procedures.

Same-direction parallel operations on paved RWY and grass RWYs 11L/29R arepermitted only for aircraft of less than 2300kg.

RWY 11C and 29C will be used only during the airshow by participants.

A chart showing aerodrome layout, location of tower, extent of manoeuvring area,etc, is included in this supplement.

Communication Failure Procedures

If Wanaka Tower frequency 118.9 MHz is congested, use 120.1 MHz.

Arriving aircraftIf RTF failure occurs before entering the Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998, DO NOTENTER. Divert to a suitable alternate aerodrome other than Queenstown.

If RTF failure occurs after entering the Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998, continue viapublished arrival procedure or clearance; continue in sequence and land in turn,watching for ATC light signals.

Departing aircraftBefore taxiing — remain in aircraft park, visit the TWR for briefing.

After taxiing — take off in turn and vacate the Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998immediately.

MET Reports

Wanaka Tower will issue METAR, SPECI and SPAR when on watch. These reportswill be available on IFIS, and from other ATS units.

Flight Planning and Briefing — General

No flight planning or briefing facilities will be available from Wanaka Tower. Thesefunctions are available from the National Briefing Office, IFIS or Fax-on-Demand.

Due to expected heavy demand, pilots using these facilities are recommended toobtain pre-flight information and file flight plans as far in advance, on the day ofthe flight, as is possible.

A general aviation weather and NOTAM briefing sheet will be available for pilots tocopy at the entry gate to the public area from the light aircraft park.

IFR Flight Planning Requirements

Pilots wishing to file flight rules I, Y or Z flight plans to or from Wanaka must filethese plans via the National Briefing Office only. Flight Rules I, Y and Z Flightplans to/from Wanaka will not be accepted via IFIS.

Flight Plan Termination

Arriving VFR aircraft should terminate flight plans with Christchurch Informationon 122.2 MHz before reaching TARRAS, or by telephone (0800 626 756) afterlanding. Termination MUST BE MADE BEFORE SARTIME.

The nominated SARTIME must take into account the possibility of a delay onarrival at Wanaka. Wanaka Tower will not accept SARTIME changes or VFRflight plan terminations.

Fuel

Fuel will not be available from the apron pumps on practice and airshow days.Tanker supply will be available in the light aircraft park. The taxiway to the apronwill be blocked by a gate on practice and airshow days.

On MON 5 APR 10, to reduce congestion around the fuel pumps, pilots are not toleave their aircraft unattended on the apron or around the fuel pump unless theyhave prior approval for parking from the Airport Company. Aircraft leftunattended may be moved at the owner’s risk.

Holding

All aircraft must carry 30 MINUTES EXTRA HOLDING FUEL IN ADDITION TONORMAL RESERVES to enable diversions or holding for traffic and/or weather.

If aircraft are required to hold within or outside Wanaka CTR/D/NZR998, orbitsshould be standard left hand, with landing and/or anti-collision lights on.

Arrival Procedures — IFR aircraft

Aircraft to cancel IFR and proceed VFR if in uninterrupted VMC. If unable:

RNAV aircraft Enter TARAX holding pattern, call Wanaka TWR 118.9 MHzon entry.

Clearance for approach will be issued subject to integrationwith arriving VFR aircraft.

Wanaka TWR will terminate flight plan.

Non RNAV aircraft Flight plan to Alexandra or Queenstown for instrumentapproach.

Proceed VFR to Wanaka.

Terminate flight plan as per VFR procedures.

After landing, taxi as instructed.

Arrival Procedures — VFR aircraft

The following procedures should be read in conjunction with the accompanyingillustrations. All altitudes are stated in QNH values (i.e. AMSL).
