Introduction This training guide has been provided to you by the Airport Operations Division of the Department of Aviation, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Our goal is to operate a safe and efficient airport, and to reduce the number of runway incursions. The procedures, guidelines and airport specific information contained within this guide, when combined with proper training from your company or the FAA, will provide you with the basic knowledge needed to meet these goals. This guide provides a general overview of safe operating procedures for driving on the movement area at ATL. It is not intended to cover specific conditions at all airports. Some local procedures are unique. If there are questions about differences between this guide and local procedures, they can be resolved by your supervisor or by contacting the Airport Operations Office at (404) 530-6620. By its nature, it is necessary for this guide to be generic. The Movement Area Driver Training course is intended for airfield familiarization training and should be a review only. Proper training from your company is required prior to completing this course. This class is not for beginners. Why do we require this training? The FAA requires all Operating Certificate holders to limit access to the movement areas only to those ground vehicles with a daily operational need. We are also required by the FAA to ensure that vehicle operators with access to the movement area are familiar with our procedures for the operation of ground vehicles and the consequences of non-compliance. Consequences of non-compliance are: Suspension of airfield and/or movement area driving privileges Permanent revocation of airfield and/or movement area driving privileges Criminal penalties as defined in the Atlanta City Code of Ordinances Who is eligible for an AMA license? Only those with a daily operational need. Authorized personnel include: Airport operations, airport maintenance, ARFF, engineers and certain airline personnel, including airline mechanics and specially trained tug and tow teams. Students that successfully complete the course, with a passing grade of 80% or better, will be issued an AMA badge as shown below. If the student is not a taxi qualified mechanic, and will be acting in a limited capacity during relocation of an aircraft (such as driving a pushback tug/tractor), a restricted license will be issued. Restricted license holders are not authorized to cross runways.

AMA Training Guide

How long is the license valid? Airport Ops, ARFF, Airport Maintenance, Engineers and FAA personnel will have to renew their license every 12 months Airline tow teams and Mechanics repositioning aircraft will have to renew every 24 months, with the exception of Delta Air Lines, which must renew when their ATL SIDA badge expires. Who is required to have an AMA license during an aircraft reposition? Any person that operates the aircraft, brakes, radios or tug is required to have a valid AMA license. In order to keep a sterile cockpit, anyone not integral to the reposition, or not in a training capacity, should not be allowed to ride in the cockpit or tug unless they have a valid AMA license. What is the difference in Movement Area Training and Airport Driver Safety Training (ADST)? Movement Area Training is for those individuals that have a daily operational need to enter the AMA, for instance, airline maintenance teams that need to relocate an aircraft from a maintenance facility to the ramp. ADST training only allows you to access the NLVR and ramp areas. Entering the AMA is strictly prohibited. Are there any prerequisites for AMA training? Anyone attending the class, whether initial or recurrent, should be able to pass the exam prior to viewing the presentation. It is expected that you have a level of knowledge that would make you a safe operator on the movement area, as our presentation will be more of a review of what you already know, and introduction to ATL specific information. Airline personnel are required to have completed the Taxi 101 course presented by the FAA. Airport Operations may provide the CD for this training if needed. DOA employees need to make arrangements with your immediate supervisor for on the job training. DOA contractors and engineers can expect to be required to complete a checklist and up to 20 ride-alongs with Airside Operations during the daily airfield inspection, to better familiarize you with the AMA, during initial training.

Definitions Movement Area the runways, taxiways, and other areas of an airport that are used for taxiing, takeoff, and landing of aircraft, exclusive of loading ramps and aircraft parking areas. Safety Area a defined area comprised of either a runway or taxiway and the surrounding surfaces that is prepared or suitable for reducing the risk of damage to aircraft in the event of an undershoot, overshoot, or excursion from a runway or the unintentional departure from a taxiway. Figure 3 illustrates the runway safety area. Runway (Rwy) a rectangular paved surface on an airport designed for the take-off or landing of aircraft. Taxiway (Twy) a paved surface designed for the movement of aircraft from one part of an airport to another.

Section 1 Runway Incursions On October 1, 2007, the FAA adopted the ICAO definition of a runway incursion. It states: Any occurrence at an aerodrome involving the incorrect presence of an aircraft, vehicle or person on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing and take off of aircraft Runway incursions are broken down into three categories. 1. Operational Error (OE): An error is made by an air traffic controller. 2. Pilot Deviation (PD): When a pilot enters the runway without permission. 3. Vehicle/Pedestrian Deviation (V/PD): When a person or vehicle enters the runway without permission. Some common causes for runway incursions are miscommunications, unfamiliarity with surroundings, poor weather conditions or complacency. Runway Incursions are a major concern at ATL. Safety is the primary goal when entering the AMA. We must always stay alert and be aware of other aircraft around us. There should be no distractions, such as listening to music, talking on a cell phone or company radio, or conversing with someone else in the cockpit/vehicle while operating on the AMA. When operating on the AMA, its important to listen to radio calls from ATC closely. The frequency can become very congested during the peak arrival/departure times. Its important to make sure the call you heard was for you. If you are unsure, or did not hear your call sign, ask ATC to repeat the instructions or verify whom they are for. In order to keep from becoming lost on the AMA, you should always carry an updated Jeppesen Chart. If you are unsure on the route given to you by ATC, you may request progressive taxi instructions. This will alert ATC to the fact that you are unfamiliar with the route given and will need turn-by-turn instructions. ATL is a constantly evolving airport. We are always looking to expand, add new taxiways to improve our capacity, or to repair older components. Because of this, its important to not become complacent while operating on the AMA. Just because youve always taken the same route to reach your location, doesnt mean the same route will be available forever. Its important to be aware of what areas are under construction or what areas may be closed for routine maintenance. Prior to entering the AMA, you should always listen to ATIS frequency to get up-to-date airfield information.

Section 2 Airfield Familiarization The ATL airfield is broken up into three distinct complexes. North Complex: includes all taxiways and runways north of the CPTC, including taxiway Golf. The north complex is depicted in red on Figure 1. Center Complex: includes all taxiways and runways south of the CPTC, and from taxiway romeo north. The center complex is depicted in green on Figure 1. South Complex: includes all taxiways and runways south of taxiway romeo. The south complex is depicted in blue on Figure 1. Figure 1

AMA Training Guide

Runways ATL currently has five 150 wide runways. All runways are configured in an east/west direction and are depicted in black on Figure 2. Each runway has a parallel taxiway and numerous high speed taxiway turnoffs. All runways at ATL have: White painted markings that include edge lines and centerlines, precision approach, and runway designator markings (see Figure 2). White centerline lights that change to alternating red/white at 3,000 remaining and solid red with 1,000 remaining. White edge lights that change to amber with 2,000 remaining. Figure 2

A runway designator is determined by the runways magnetic heading. Think of an aircraft sitting on a runway, and visualize where its nose would be pointing on a compass. For example, if an aircraft was sitting on Rwy 9L, awaiting departure, its nose would be pointing to the east, or 090 degrees. The zeros are then dropped from the heading giving you your runway designator of Rwy 9. -7-

ATL Airside Operations

AMA Training Guide

Due to the fact that we have parallel runways, our runways are paired up via complex (as depicted in Figure 1 earlier). An L or R following the runway designator is determined by the pilots point of view. For example, if a pilot is approaching from the west towards two Rwy 9s, the left runway would be Rwy 9L and the right would be Rwy 9R. During normal operations at ATL, each complex will have one landing and one departing runway, with the exception of the south complex. The runway that is closest to the CPTC is considered the inboard, and is used for departures. The runway further away, is considered the outboard, and is used for landings. While working at ATL, you may hear the term east operation or west operation. This is in reference to the flow of air traffic in and out of the airport. Aircraft always flow in the same direction. For instance, you should never see an aircraft departing Rwy 8R while another is landing Rwy 26R. Runway Safety Area (RSA) All runways have a 1000x 500 safety area that surrounds them. This area must not be occupied by any objects or structures that could damage an aircraft in the event that the aircraft was to leave the runway. Figure 3 depicts the RSA dimension for ATL. Figure 3

Taxiways ATL has 22 taxiways and numerous connectors. Taxiway widths vary from 75 to 150, with a typical width of 100. Taxiways are shown as grey on Figure 2. All taxiways have: Yellow pavement markings Blue edge lights Green centerline lights ***Areas of Concern*** Twy C and D on the north complex are the main routes to the north side maintenance facilities. These taxiways cross both north complex runways. It is advised to use caution when operating in this area. As depicted in Figure 4, there is only 383 between the runways where Twy C and D intersect with Twy B. Often, ATC will give clearance to cross Rwy 8L/26R and hold short of Rwy 8R/26L, and at the same time, may advise you to expedite and change frequencies. Its important to keep your eyes scanning out of the vehicle/cockpit and to be aware of where the hold short bar is. Several runway incursions have occurred here simply because the operator wasnt ready to stop. Figure 4 gives examples of distance traveled at an average taxi speed and expedited speed. Again, use caution while moving aircraft through this intersection - be prepared to stop Figure 4

Wheres the runway? Figures 5 and 6 illustrate what you will see when traveling southbound on Twy D, just after exiting Rwy 8L/26R. As you can see, its very difficult to identify runway in this intersection. Twy D is a designated SMGCS route, which means it has a 12 (wider then normal) centerline that overlaps all other markings, including runway markings. Because of the markings, the elevation differences, there appears to be no runway. Runway guard lights, both in-pavement and elevated, are located in this intersection. Be aware of where you are! Figure 5

Twy V is commonly referred to as the victor end around or the victor loop. Caution should be used while operating on this taxiway, as it slopes down and has a large turn at the bottom. It should also be noted that aircraft with a wingspan greater then 171 are restricted from using Twy V. Figure 7

Airfield Markings Pavement markings on taxiways consist of taxiway edge and center lines, holding points, critical area markings and the runway hold bar. All taxiway pavement markings are yellow. Pavement markings are reflective and can be seen at night time. Some examples can be seen in Figure 8. Figure 8

Pavement markings on runways consist of, but arent limited to, a runway identifier, edge lines, center lines, aiming point and precision runway markings. All runway pavement markings are white and are reflective so that they can be seen at night time. Figure 9

AMA Training Guide

Some taxiways have surface painted signs. These are painted markings that look just like the actual signs off to the side of the taxiway. They are used in areas where there may not be enough room to have a standard sign. An example is shown in Figure 8 and 10. Figure 10

The holding position (or hold bar) marking is the most important marking on the airfield. The hold bar is made up of a double solid yellow line and a double dashed yellow line. This marking holds you short of the runway. You will always stop on the solid side of the marking. You must always remember; you can not cross a runway hold bar with out permission from ATC. All hold bars at ATL have in-pavement runway guard lights in front of them. Runway guard lights are alternating yellow flashing lights. Figure 11

The red and white zipper marking is a marking thats unique to ATL. This marking is used in lieu of the movement area boundary marking. The red and white zipper marking indicates: Beginning/ending of a taxiway Edge of the NLVR ATC clearance is required to go further Figure 12

Airfield Signage There are several different types of signs located on the airfield. They include, but arent limited to, the following:

Mandatory Instruction: Red background with white letters o Holds you short of a runway or critical area. o Also called runway holding position sign Directional Sign: Yellow background with black letters o Indicates directions of other taxiways leading out of an intersection Inbound Destination: Yellow background with black letters o Indicates direction to a major destination

Location Sign: Black background with yellow letters and border o Identifies the taxiway or runway you are located on Figure 13 below illustrates some of the different signs you may see on the airfield. You will always see a runway holding position sign where a taxiway intersects a runway. Runway holding position signs normally have a runway boundary sign on the back of them. This helps you identify whether or not you are on or off of the runway. Figure 13

ILS Critical Area ILS Critical Areas must be protected when the ceiling is less than 800 and/or the visibility is less than 2 miles. It is our responsibility, while on the AMA, to know when we should or shouldnt stop at the ILS critical area marking. Figure 11 illustrates the Rwy 8L glide slope critical area. It is important to remain clear of this so that we dont interrupt the glide slop signal that an inbound aircraft may be using to land. When in doubt, ask ATC if the critical area is being protected. Figure 14

LAHSO LAHSO, which stands for land and hold short operations, is an ATC procedure intended to increase airport capacity without compromising safety. LAHSO will be explained in more detail during the AMA Training Course. Surface Movement Guidance Control System (SMGCS) During periods of low visibility due to fog or snow, ATL will implement its SMGCS plan. Once the RVR readings drop below 600, landing traffic will be sent to Rwy 9R (Category IIIB) and a Follow Me truck will be deployed to escort aircraft into the gate areas. Its important to know that when the SMGCS plan is initiated, ground vehicle operations on the movement area will not be authorized. This includes aircraft repositioning.

FOD FOD, which stands for Foreign Object Debris or Foreign Object Damage, is a major concern at ATL. While it is the responsibility of all airport personnel to reduce FOD, FOD on the movement area is the responsibility of Airport Operations. While operating in the movement area, if FOD is spotted, do not attempt to maneuver or chase the debris. Report all FOD to the ATCT or Airport Operations.

Aircraft Repositioning and Disabled Aircraft For Airline personnel, an ATL AMA license grants you permission to relocate aircraft ONLY. You may not use your license to enter the movement area for any other reason. Tugs, baggage carts and ground servicing equipment are strictly prohibited from enter the movement area. Consequently, airline mechanics or other personnel are not authorized to respond to a disabled aircraft on the movement area. You must first coordinate with Airport Operations for an escort. We are here 24/7/365 and can be reached via the numbers on your AMA badge.

City Codes The City of Atlanta has several codes listed in Section 22 pertaining directly to the airport. Atlanta Police Department has the authority to enforce the codes as they see fit. Listed below are codes that may directly affect you. Section 22-168. Taxiing and ground rules. (a) No aircraft engine shall be started or run at the airport unless a pilot or a certified airframe and powerplant mechanic qualified to run the engines of that particular type of aircraft is attending the controls. (b) Aircraft at the airport shall perform warm-up or prolonged engine test operations only in approved areas. (City Blast Fence/Delta TOC/Northwest hangar) (m) All aircraft being taxied, towed or otherwise moved at the airport shall proceed with navigation lights on during the hours between sunset and sunrise. (n) Aircraft engines shall be started or operated only in the places designated for such purposes by the aviation general manager. Engine run-ups for test or maintenance purposes between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. shall be permitted only in specific locations approved by the aviation general manager for such purposes during such period. Note: City Blast Fence is closed between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. (t) No person or individual shall push back or power back any aircraft from gate areas unless at least two wing walkers are deployed. The wing walkers shall position themselves on each side of the aircraft to exercise pedestrian and vehicle control. No person or individual shall put into motion or cause to be put into motion any aircraft in such a manner that the movement of such aircraft presents an endangerment to persons or property (l) All vehicles operating on or across taxiways or runways shall be equipped with a two-way radio and must be in continuous communication with the control tower, except when under escort by a vehicle properly authorized and equipped. (m) Aircraft shall at all times have the right-of-way over other vehicular traffic. All vehicles shall pass to the rear of taxiing aircraft

Section 3 Communications It is essential to use proper aviation terminology when talking with ATC while accessing the movement areas. As always, safety is the main concern. Use of CB jargon or 10codes is strictly prohibited. It is imperative that all personnel responsible for aircraft movements be thoroughly familiar with ATC procedures and radio phraseology, especially those terms that are specific to ATL. Use of correct radio techniques will reduce frequency congestion, allow for a more efficient flow of aircraft movements, reduce miscommunications, and reduce the risk of a runway incursion. Talking to the Tower The primary frequency for communications on the movement area is called ground control. There are several positions in the tower that you may talk to, including ground, tower, and metering. Although you are talking to controllers in the tower, you wont always be talking to the person working the tower position (known to controllers as local control). When entering the movement area, your first and primary contact will be ground control. Each subsequent frequency will be provided by the controller you are talking to, via a frequency change advisory. When communicating on the FAA frequencies, its important to keep your transmissions short and to the point. Being the worlds busiest airport means we can have well over 100 aircraft on the AOA at one time. This equates to congested frequencies which can in turn lead to many pilots trying to key their radios at once. Always listen before you speak. Never speak until you know what you want to say. Never take more time transmitting then necessary, you never know when ATC may need to stop someone from crossing a runway. Initial Call to ATC When making your initial call to ATC, you should always use the who/who/where format. Even though FAA Taxi 101 teaches you who/who/where/what format, as stated earlier, the frequencies at ATL are extremely congested, so we must not convey too much information to ATC until we have their full attention. Who you are calling o Atlanta ground Who you are o Tug 1 Airport 5 Alpha Where you are o Ramp 4 north Delta North Example: Atlanta ground, Airport 5 Alpha, at ramp 4 north Then, wait for response from ATC before stating your intentions.

Phonetic Alphabet The use of the ICAO standard phonetic alphabet is required at ATL, with the exception of one letter; D. Due to ATL being the home base of Delta Air Lines, its been agreed upon with ATC to not use the phonetic delta when referring to D, instead, we use dixie. Refrain from using police terms, such as adam and baker, proper use would be alpha and bravo. Figure 15 provides a listing of the phonetic alphabet and is a guide to proper pronunciation of letters and numbers.

Ramp Tower If repositioning an aircraft via a Terminal Ramp, it will be necessary to contact Ramp Control on the corresponding frequency: Ramp 1 Ramp 2 Ramp 3 131.45 131.85 129.27 Ramp 4 Ramp 5 Ramp 6 130.07 129.37 131.37

All ramp and ATC frequencies can be found on your Jeppesen Chart, a copy of which will be provided during the AMA Training Course. General Rules and Guidelines to Follow While Moving Aircraft Ensure that you have the latest airport information, obtained from the ATIS frequency. It is important to know what areas are closed, to be aware of any possible frequency changes and to know the current weather conditions (ceiling and visibility). Its important to have a route planned out ahead of time, but ATC may have to reroute you due to construction activity of congestion on taxiways. Always read back holding instructions, including your call sign and runway designator. This is mandatory. Use the correct phraseology, including the phonetic alphabet. Remember, no 10codes, slang or CB jargon. Speak clearly. Maintain a sterile cockpit. Do not allow other people that may be with you to distract you. Refrain from conversations unless they apply to the task at hand. Ensure that you are on the correct frequency, and continuously monitor. If you are unsure of your location, or get lost, stop and advise ATC. Give way to aircraft and emergency vehicles. Advise ATC or DOA Ops of FOD or any other abnormalities on the movement area. If an instruction wasnt understood, ask ATC to say again. If your taxi route takes you to an unfamiliar location on the airfield, ask for a progressive. ATC will then provide you with turn by turn instructions.

Runway Incursions Jul 07 Feb 08

1 Sep 07 - A vehicle appeared from the Delta North Area and entered Taxiway Alpha at Alpha-3 and proceeded westbound. The vehicle then crossed Runway 8L and proceeded to Taxiway Victor. Once the vehicle reached Taxiway Victor, it turned around and proceeded to cross the approach end of Runway 8L again. The vehicle then proceeded on Taxiway Alpha back to Alpha-3 where the vehicle was stopped by Airport Operations.

12 Oct 07 An airport vehicle was observed by ATCT across the hold bar near Taxiway A6 and Runway 26R. The operator had been given instructions to remain clear of all runways while performing routine maintenance on the bird cannons that were located outside of the RSA. After a brief exchange with ATCT, the vehicle exited the RSA.

19 Dec 07 Three ARFF Strikers were responding to Taxiway Bravo 10 for a response drill. The 2nd and 3rd Strikers to arrive proceeded to spray agent near the hold bar. While doing so, both trucks crossed over the hold bar and into the RSA of Runway 26L. Operations were not impacted.

6 Sep 07 During the midnight shift, an airport vehicle was observed by ATCT entering Runway 8L from the ARFF access road. The operator was tasked with placing the lighted X on Runway 8R, which had just been closed by Airport Ops. The driver entered the incorrect runway.

25 Oct 07 A CRJ operated by a non-pilot was given clearance to cross Runway 8L without delay and hold short of Runway 8R. The operator read back cross Runway 8L and hold short of Runway 8R. The aircraft proceeded across Runway 8L and then failed to stop short of the hold short line for Runway 8R.

20 Jan 08 A CRJ operated by a non-pilot was given clearance to cross Rwy 26L and hold short of Rwy 26R. The operator read back the hold short instructions. After crossing Rwy 26L, the operator continued across Rwy 26R without authorization from ATC. An ASA on final was sent around.

12 Aug 07 ASA reported a pedestrian, walking across the touchdown zone of Rwy 10, that had come within 50 of their wingtip. The individual entered the SIDA area while being pursued by local authorities. ATL Ops closed the runway while APD apprehended the individual. The FAA defines a runway incursion as: Any occurrence at an aerodrome involving the incorrect presence of an aircraft, vehicle, or person on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing and take-off of aircraft.
