Common ATC Particularities in RVSM
Environments (long term)
Changing of professional task balance in controller work:
-increasing segment of monitoring (accordance of CFL to Actual
FL, RVSM status);
-increasing segment of providing pilots with information;
-decreasing segment of separation tasks.
Usage of two vertical separation minima (sometimes at the same
time).
Workload irregularity (depends on weather, RVSM status in the
sector of responsibility).
Increasing frequency of ACAS wrong alerts.
Appearance of new transition areas RVSM/non-RVSM.

Crew In-Flight Procedures (1)
• Flight crews will need to comply with any aircraft
operating restrictions, if required for the specific
aircraft group, e.g. limits on indicated Mach number,
given in the RVSM airworthiness approval;
• Emphasis should be placed on promptly setting the
sub-scale on all primary and standby altimeters to
1013.2 (hPa) /29.92 (in.Hg) when passing the
transition altitude, and rechecking for proper
altimeter setting when reaching the initial cleared
flight level;
STP56/162/ATCRVSM “Процедуры RVSM для персонала УВД”
M3 - 14
Crew In-Flight Procedures(2)
• In level cruise, it is essential that the aircraft is flown at the cleared
flight level. This requires that particular care is taken to ensure
that ATC clearances are fully understood and followed. The
aircraft should not intentionally depart from cleared flight level
without a positive clearance from ATC unless the crew are
conducting emergency manoeuvres;
• When changing levels, the aircraft should not be allowed to
overshoot or undershoot the cleared flight level by more than 45 m
(150 ft);
Note: It is recommended that the acquisition of the Cleared Flight
Level (CFL) be accomplished using the altitude capture feature of
the automatic altitude-control system, if installed.
STP56/162/ATCRVSM “Процедуры RVSM для персонала УВД”
M3 - 15
Crew In-Flight Procedures (3)
• An automatic altitude-control system should be
operative and engaged during level cruise, except
when circumstances such as the need to re-trim the
aircraft or turbulence require disengagement. In any
event, adherence to cruise altitude should be done
by reference to one of the two primary altimeters.
Following loss of the automatic heightkeeping
function, any consequential restrictions will need to
be observed;
• Ensure that the altitude-alerting system is operative;
STP56/162/ATCRVSM “Процедуры RVSM для персонала УВД”
M3 - 16
Crew In-Flight Procedures (4)
• At intervals of approximately one hour, cross-checks between
the primary altimeters should be made. A minimum of two must
agree within ± 200 ft (± 60 m). Failure to meet this condition will
require that the altimetry system be reported as defective and
notified to ATC;
(i) The usual scan of flight deck instruments should suffice for
altimeter cross-checking on most flights.
• In normal operations, the altimetry system being used to
control the aircraft should be selected for the input to the
altitude reporting transponder transmitting information to ATC;
• If the pilot is notified by ATC of an assigned altitude deviation
(AAD) of 300 ft (± 90 m) or more, then the pilot should take
action to return to the cleared flight level as quickly as
possible.

Air Traffic Assessment:
Aircraft RVSM Status Indication on the Display (2)
Controllers should understand that RVSM approval in accordance
with current FPL can be cancelled on basis of information
received directly from the pilot.
During an initial phase of RVSM implementation for some radar
display Information manual input of a distinctive characteristic can be
demanded. It requires presence of the clear confirming procedures
providing receipt of the given crucial for safety information to ATC
controllers.
ATC apply distinctive designations of the radar data label of an
aircraft in a manual operating mode used till the moment when the
pilot report on possibility to renew RVSM flight performance.

Control of Controller Clearance
Compliance (1)
In cases when Mode C altitude indication a differs from the
cleared flight level by 300 feet (assigned altitude deviation
(AAD) - The difference between the transponder Mode C altitude
and the assigned altitude/flight level) or more, the controller
informs the pilot and instructs him to check up altimeter setting
and aircraft flight level.

Severe Turbulence - Not Forecast
•8.4.1 When an aircraft operating in the EUR RVSM airspace
encounters severe turbulence due to weather or wake vortex that
the pilot believes will impact the aircraft's capability to maintain
its cleared flight level, the pilot shall inform ATC. Air traffic
control shall establish either an appropriate horizontal
separation or an increased minimum vertical separation.
•8.4.2 Air traffic control shall, to the extent possible,
accommodate pilot requests for flight level and/or route
changes, and pass traffic information, as required.

Severe Turbulence - Not Forecast
•8.4.3 Air traffic control shall solicit reports from other aircraft to
determine whether RVSM should be suspended entirely or within
a specific flight level band and/or area.
•8.4.4 The ACC/UAC suspending RVSM shall co-ordinate any
such suspension(s), and any required adjustments to sector
capacities with adjacent ACCs/UACs, as appropriate, to ensure
an orderly progression to the transfer of traffic.

Severe Turbulence - Forecast
•8.5.1 Where a meteorological forecast is predicting severe turbulence
within the EUR RVSM airspace, air traffic control shall determine whether
RVSM should be suspended, and if so, the period of time, and specific flight
level(s) and/or area.
•8.5.2 In cases where RVSM will be suspended, the ACC/UAC suspending
RVSM shall coordinate with adjacent ACCs/UACs with regards to the flight
levels appropriate for the transfer of traffic, unless a contingency flight level
allocation scheme has been determined by letter of agreement. The
ACC/UAC suspending RVSM shall also co-ordinate applicable sector
capacities with adjacent ACCs/UACs, as appropriate.

7.8 State Aircraft Operating as Operational Air Traffic (OAT)
within the EUR RVSM airspace
7.8.1 The majority of State aircraft operating as OAT will be nonRVSM approved. Therefore, as a basic principle, and unless
otherwise notified, State aircraft operating as OAT shall be
considered as being non-RVSM approved.

7.8.2 The vertical separation minimum required between State
aircraft operating as OAT and any other aircraft operating as GAT,
where both are operating within the EUR RVSM airspace, shall be
600 m (2000 ft).
7.8.3 However, in an airspace environment where both the civil and
military ATC units are fully aware as to the RVSM approval status of
all traffic involved, a reduced vertical separation minimum of 300 m
(1000 ft) can be applied between an RVSM approved State aircraft
operating as OAT, and RVSM approved GAT.

SSR Modes
Results of application SSR for surveillance purpose can be improved by using
mode S in which a 24-bit address is appointed to each aircraft. It enables
selective inquiry of aircraft equipped with SSR transponders mode S, and to
exclude a situation of mutual interferences from several transponders
(garbling). Mode S also provides a two-way data line between a ground radar
and a mode S transponder.

Mode S is developed for
ACAS support, and it
is compatible with usual SSR radars.

At present commercial aircraft (having the maximum take-off weight more than
5700 kg) and flying in the European region are equipped with mode S
transponders, which:
- Are compatible with mode А/С SSR;
- Provide functioning TCAS in full extent (Support co-ordinated RA)

Air Traffic Situation Assessment:
Real Aircraft RVSM Status (1)
Availability of aircraft RVSM approval, does not mean,
that it meets RVSMrequirements at present.
g) before entering RVSM airspace, the pilot should review the status of
equipment required. The following equipment should be operating normally:
1) two altitude measurement systems, as defined by the RVSM MASPS;
2) automatic altitude-keeping device(s);
Note. Redundancy requirements for altitude keeping devices should be
established by regional agreement after an evaluation of such criteria as
mean time between failures,
length of flight segments
and availability of direct pilot-controller
communications
and radar surveillance.

Air Traffic Situation Assessment:
Real Aircraft RVSM Status (2)
3) at least one altitude-reporting transponder (if required for operation in
that specific RVSM airspace) capable of being switched to operate
from either of the two altimetry systems required by the RVSM MASPS;
and
4) one altitude-alerting device;
Operating Transponder. An operating transponder may not be required
for entry into all designated RVSM airspace. The operator should
determine the requirement for an operational transponder in each RVSM
area where operations are intended.
Should any of this equipment fail prior to the aircraft entering RVSM
airspace, the pilot should request a new clearance so as to avoid flight
in this airspace.

ACAS / TCAS
• ACAS: Airborne Collision Avoidance System
• ACAS is defined by a set of system performance
standards laid down by ICAO (SARPS):
– an ACAS I equipment issues Traffic Advisories (TAs)
– an ACAS II equipment issues Resolution Advisories (RAs), in
addition to TAs, in the vertical plane only
– an ACAS III equipment issues Resolution Advisories (RAs), in
addition to TAs, in both the vertical and horizontal plane. The
development of this system is currently on-hold.
• Only ACAS II standards (SARPS) have been defined
and approved

ACAS / TCAS
• TCAS: Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System
• TCAS is a family of airborne equipment's, built in the
USA:
– TCAS I-Equipment is defined by ACAS I
– TCAS II-Equipment follows ACAS II ICAO SARPS.
– The TCAS III and TCAS IV projects are currently not being
developed further.

TCAS II principles
• TCAS II is an airborne equipment, which :
• interrogates SSR transponders in its surrounding
airspace (as defined).
• provides collision avoidance, based on a flight time to
CPA criteria,
• is independent of all ground systems and of ATC
• is independent of the auto-pilot and of on-board NAV
systems (GPS...)
• is designed for collision avoidance only !!!

Possibility of ATC Clearance Issued
by Pilots Request
Specific actions undertaken by ATC, will depend on
actual weather conditions and air traffic situation at the
current moment.
ATC controllers should use common sense at
maintenance safe separation between aircraft in the real
circumstances and, whenever possible, satisfy pilots
inquiries about change of an flight levels.
