<p>Created page with "<br /> [[File:LTAJ_ADC.png|thumb|right|400px|Gaziantep Oğuzeli Airport Aerodrome Chart (AIP AD 2 LTAJ ADC)]]<br /> '''Gaziantep Oğuzeli Airport''' ('''IATA: GZT''', '''ICAO: LTAJ''') serves Gaziantep, the largest city in south-eastern Türkiye. It is located '''20 km south-east of the city''' and is a permanent border gate (port of entry) with H24 customs, immigration and ATS.<br /> <br /> <br /> The airport has a single runway, '''10/28''' (3,000 m × 48 m, concrete). The RWY 10 threshold is '''displaced by 130 m'''. Elevation is '''2,305 ft''' and the transition altitude is '''10,000 ft'''. Two terminals (Terminal 1 and Terminal 2) face '''Apron A1''', which lies south of the runway between TWYs B and D.<br /> <br /> The airport sits close to the '''Türkiye–Syria border''', which is depicted on all SID and STAR charts east and south of the aerodrome; several fixes (KIVZE, TUSYR, SURUC, ARTAR, EMLUX) lie towards the border. Higher terrain lies to the north-west (charted spot heights up to 4,908 ft), which is reflected in the 6,300 ft MSA in that sector. All charts carry a '''caution for bird flocks in the vicinity of the aerodrome''': the airport lies on the crossroads of seasonal west-to-east bird migration routes (spring and autumn, most intense at sunrise and sunset, birds of 3–4 kg flying in dense flocks at 0–984 ft).<br /> <br /> <br /> == Scenery ==<br /> === Payware ===<br /> No current payware scenery for LTAJ was found.<br /> {| class="wikitable"<br /> !Simulator<br /> !Developer<br /> !Publisher<br /> !Links<br /> |-<br /> | colspan="4" |''None known''<br /> |}<br /> <br /> <br /> === Freeware ===<br /> There are freeware options, but quality may vary significantly.<br /> {| class="wikitable"<br /> !Simulator<br /> !Developer<br /> !Publisher<br /> !Links<br /> |-<br /> |Microsoft Flight Simulator<br /> |Community<br /> |FlightSim.to<br /> |[https://flightsim.to/addon/46516/ltaj-gaziantep-oguzeli-airport FlightSim.to]<br /> |-<br /> |Microsoft Flight Simulator<br /> |Community<br /> |FlightSim.to<br /> |[https://flightsim.to/addon/108178/ltaj-gaziantep-oguzeli-airport-v0-2-1 FlightSim.to (v0.2.1)]<br /> |}<br /> <br /> <br /> == Runway in Use ==<br /> '''The AIP does not publish a Preferential Runway System (PRS) for LTAJ.''' The runway in use is selected by ATC, taking into account the surface wind and the available procedures, and is broadcast on the ATIS.<br /> <br /> Things to know when planning:<br /> * '''RWY 28''' is the instrument runway: it has the '''ILS CAT II''' (IGNP), the RNAV STARs to the ILS/RNP (1T and 1Y), the conventional STARs and every conventional approach (VOR, NDB, ILS).<br /> * '''RWY 10''' has '''no ILS'''. The only straight-in approach is the '''RNP RWY 10''' (IAC-8), fed by the RNAV STARs '''1K''' (STAR-5). The VOR A (IAC-3) is a circling-only procedure.<br /> * The MET office notes that '''RWY 28 RVR values are unreliable'''.<br /> <br /> <br /> == Arrival Procedures ==<br /> Gaziantep is located inside the '''Gaziantep TMA'''; the Kahramanmaraş TMA lies to the north-west. Approach service is provided by '''Gaziantep Approach''' (119.825), or by Gaziantep Tower when required or when transferred by Gaziantep Approach.<br /> <br /> * The RNAV STARs (STAR-3, STAR-4, STAR-5) require '''RNP 1'''; otherwise advise ATC. On first contact with Gaziantep Approach, '''report if you are unable to comply with the RNAV STAR'''.<br /> * Aircraft requesting the '''RNP approach RWY 28''' must inform Gaziantep Approach on first contact. Aircraft requesting the '''NDB/DME or VOR/DME''' approach to RWY 28 must also say so on first contact.<br /> * The RNAV STARs may be flown with DME/DME positioning (by RNP 1-certified aircraft) '''only in case of GPS signal loss''', and only while the DGA, DGP and DGT DMEs are in operation.<br /> * ATC will clear you for the final approach procedure ('''ILS Z, ILS Y or RNP RWY 28''') '''at or before ASRUP'''.<br /> * Aircraft vacating the runway via a '''rapid exit taxiway''' have priority at taxiway intersections over aircraft taxiing on other taxiways; give way to them unless instructed otherwise.<br /> * Departing aircraft taxiing from the apron to the runway have priority over landed aircraft taxiing to the apron via TWY A. Arriving aircraft give way at the '''intermediate holding positions''' on TWYs B, C, D, F and A unless instructed otherwise.<br /> * '''All IFR/VFR civil, charter and military traffic''' planning to use the aerodrome must contact the Gaziantep aerodrome authority / ATC unit. '''Charter flights must obtain prior permission at least 3 hours in advance''' from the Aerodrome Office on duty.<br /> <br /> <br /> === Low Visibility ===<br /> '''RWY 28 has an ILS CAT II''' (IGNP 109.1). The '''ILS Y CAT II RWY 28''' (IAC-6) requires special aircrew and aircraft certification (OCA 2,346 ft (130 ft), radio altimeter 167 ft, missed approach climb gradient 5.0%). To avoid interference with the ILS signal, the '''RWY 28 holding position is on TWY A'''; there is '''no runway holding position on TWY L'''. The AIP publishes no separate low visibility procedures text for LTAJ.<br /> <br /> <br /> === Runways and ILS ===<br /> {| class="wikitable"<br /> !Runway<br /> !ILS (LLZ)<br /> !Frequency / DME<br /> !Category<br /> !GP / RDH<br /> !THR elevation<br /> !Notes<br /> |-<br /> |'''28'''<br /> |IGNP<br /> |109.1 MHz / CH28X (GP 331.4 MHz)<br /> |CAT II<br /> |3.0° / 52 ft<br /> |2,216 ft<br /> |ILS/DME unusable outside 20° left of the LLZ centreline.

Runway connectors from west to east:<br /> * '''G''' – RWY 10 threshold (west end)<br /> * '''H''' and '''J''' – western exits; J is also the '''RWY 10 intersection take-off point'''<br /> * '''K''' – eastern exit<br /> * '''L''' – RWY 28 threshold (east end). '''There is no runway holding position on TWY L'''; the RWY 28 holding position is on '''TWY A''' (to protect the ILS).<br /> * '''M''' – at the west end, north of the runway.<br /> <br /> '''H''' and '''K''' have rapid exit taxiway indicator lights (RETIL). TWYs B, C and D connect Apron A1 with TWY A; '''TWY F''' (12 m wide, PCR 400) leads south from TWY A to the hangar area at the west end. '''Stop bars''' are installed on TWYs A, G, H, J, K and M; runway guard lights on A, G, H, J and K. Intermediate holding positions are marked on TWYs A, B, C, D and F. The ADC also shows apron holding points '''AHP1''' (TWY D) and '''AHP2''' (TWY A east of B).<br /> <br /> There are 15–20 m high obstacles in the area south of and parallel to TWY A, 80 m from its centreline, starting 180 m from the RWY 10 end of TWY A and extending 800 m towards RWY 28.<br /> [[File:LTAJ_ADC.png|center|frameless|700px|Gaziantep Oğuzeli Aerodrome Chart]]<br /> <br /> === Apron and Stands ===<br /> [[File:LTAJ_PRKG.png|thumb|right|350px|Aircraft Parking/Docking Chart (AIP AD 2 LTAJ PRKG)]]<br /> All stands are on '''Apron A1''' (elevation 695 m). Push-back service is provided for each stand, and nose-in guidance, stand numbers and guide lines are available.<br /> * '''Stands 1–10''' (west part, in front of Terminal 2): stand 1 is charted for a '''Falcon 900LX''', stands 2–10 for aircraft up to the '''B737-800'''.<br /> * '''Stands 101–106, A106, B106''' (east part, in front of Terminal 1): stands '''101''' and '''A106''' are charted for the '''B777-300ER'''; 102–106 and B106 for the '''B737-800'''.<br /> * While Category E or F aircraft are being pushed back on the apron, '''Category E and F aircraft must not taxi on TWY A''' next to the apron.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==== APU ====<br /> At '''bridge stands''' the APU must be switched off '''within 5 minutes after parking''' (use the bridge power and air). The APU may be started no earlier than '''15 minutes before engine start'''.<br /> <br /> ==== De-icing ====<br /> De-icing is available H24 on two areas: '''De-icing Area 1''' (west, next to TWY A near TWY J) is used for '''Category D and E''' aircraft; '''De-icing Area 2''' (east end, near TWY L) is used primarily for '''Category C''' aircraft.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==== Waiting behind aircraft at holding points ====<br /> While Category D, E or F aircraft are waiting on TWYs '''G, H, J, K or L''', no aircraft may taxi behind them. If only Category C aircraft are waiting, only Category C aircraft may taxi behind them.<br /> <br /> === Planning Taxi Time ===<br /> Apron A1 lies roughly in the middle of the runway, so taxi distances to both runway ends are similar:<br /> * '''RWY 28''': taxi east on TWY A to the RWY 28 holding position on TWY A.<br /> * '''RWY 10''': taxi west on TWY A to TWY G (or to TWY J for an intersection departure).<br /> <br /> <br /> === ATIS ===<br /> '''Gaziantep Information''' is broadcast on '''119.275 MHz''' (H24). Always copy the ATIS before calling Ground.<br /> <br /> === Obtaining Clearance ===<br /> There is '''no separate Delivery position''' in the AIP. Call '''Gaziantep Ground (121.900)''' for your ATC clearance. In your initial call, include your callsign, stand, destination and the ATIS letter you have received.<br /> <br /> <br /> === Pushback and Engine Start ===<br /> Call Ground with your callsign and stand number when you are fully ready. Push-back is provided at every stand. Remember the APU rule above (APU start no earlier than 15 minutes before engine start).<br /> <br /> === Taxi Procedures ===<br /> Departures taxi via TWY B, C or D and '''TWY A''' to the runway in use. Departing aircraft have priority over landed aircraft taxiing to the apron on TWY A; arrivals give way at the intermediate holding positions unless instructed otherwise. For '''RWY 28''', the holding position is on '''TWY A''' (not on L). For '''RWY 10''', intersection departures from '''TWY J''' are possible (see table).<br /> <br /> {| class="wikitable"<br /> !Runway<br /> !Intersection<br /> !TORA<br /> !TODA<br /> !ASDA<br /> !LDA<br /> |-<br /> | rowspan="2" |10<br /> |Full length<br /> |3,000 m<br /> |3,000 m<br /> |3,000 m<br /> |2,870 m (130 m displaced THR)<br /> |-<br /> |J<br /> |2,050 m<br /> |2,050 m<br /> |2,050 m<br /> | –<br /> |-<br /> |28<br /> |Full length<br /> |3,000 m<br /> |3,000 m<br /> |3,060 m<br /> |3,000 m<br /> |}<br /> <br /> === Phraseology to be Used for Taxi ===<br /> <blockquote><br /> '''Pilot:''' Gaziantep Ground, THY4AJ, stand 103, request taxi.<br /> <br /> '''GND:''' THY4AJ, Gaziantep Ground, taxi to holding point runway 28 via B and A.<br /> <br /> '''Pilot:''' Taxi to holding point runway 28 via B and A, THY4AJ.<br /> <br /> ''(approaching the holding point)''<br /> <br /> '''GND:''' THY4AJ, contact Gaziantep Tower 118.500.<br /> <br /> '''Pilot:''' Gaziantep Tower 118.500, THY4AJ.<br /> </blockquote><br /> <br /> <br /> == Departure Procedures ==<br /> === RECAT - LTAJ ===<br /> Turkish airspace uses wake turbulence re-categorisation (RECAT-EU).
