[[File:LTAT_ADC.png|thumb|right|400px|Malatya Aerodrome Chart (AIP AD 2 LTAT ADC)]]
'''Malatya Airport''' (Erhaç) ('''IATA: MLX''', '''ICAO: LTAT''') serves the city of Malatya in eastern Anatolia and is located 28 km north-west of the city. It is a '''joint military/civil aerodrome''' (AIP: ''"Available to: Military-Civil"''), with DHMİ as the civil aerodrome operator. It is a regular or alternate aerodrome for all domestic air traffic and has a permanent border gate (customs and immigration H24).


The airport has two parallel runways, '''03R/21L''' and '''03L/21R''' (both 3,350 m × 45 m), but '''RWY 03L/21R is used as a taxiway by civil aircraft'''. It can be used as a runway for landing and take-off only in emergencies and when RWY 03R/21L is closed for maintenance. Elevation is '''2,837 ft''', the transition altitude is '''10,000 ft''' and the transition level is assigned by ATC.

The airport lies inside the '''Malatya MTMA''' (military TMA), and the Erhaç CTR (5 NM radius) is controlled by '''Erhaç Tower'''. There is '''high terrain west and south-west of the aerodrome''' (spot heights above 10,000 ft on the charts), so circling approaches are not authorised west of the aerodrome. Restricted area '''LT-R23''' (SFC–25,000 ft MSL) lies just west of the field and danger area '''LT-D14''' (SFC–FL250) to the east. Malatya's other airfield, '''LTAO''', is charted south-east of LTAT.

== Preferential Runway System (PRS) ==
The AIP does '''not''' publish a Preferential Runway System for LTAT. The runway in use is selected by Erhaç Tower and announced on the ATIS. Keep these AIP facts in mind:
* '''RWY 21L''' is the only runway with an '''ILS (CAT I)''' and RNP approach. RWY 21R has an RNP approach, but RWY 03L/21R is normally used as a taxiway.
* There is '''no straight-in instrument approach to RWY 03L/R'''. The only RWY 03 procedure is the NDB C / VOR C circling approach (IAC-7).
* SIDs are published for both directions (RWY 21L/R and RWY 03L/R).
* '''RWY 03R/21L is not suitable for E and F category aircraft''' (AD 2.20 D).
* Hook and net barriers are installed on both runways (AD 2.23). The ADC caution says: ''"Follow ATC instructions for the serviceable hook and net barriers due to the RWY heading to be used for landing operations."''


== Arrival Procedures ==
Malatya is in the '''Malatya MTMA'''. Arrivals enter via '''UREBO''' (north-west), '''OKUDU''' (north-east), '''DIGIL''' (east), '''SONSU''' (south-east) or '''RASVA''' (south). OKUDU and DIGIL routes join at '''ASKER'''. These fixes should be the '''last point''' of your flight-planned route.

* The AIP STAR charts cover two types of arrival: '''conventional STARs''' to the ERH VOR or ERH NDB (charts STAR-1 to STAR-4, usable for either runway direction), and '''RNAV (GNSS) STARs for RWY 21L/R''' (chart STAR-5, "1R" designators).
* The RNAV STARs need '''RNP-1'''. If you are not RNP-1 approved, '''tell ATC'''.
* Max holding speed on all STARs is '''IAS 230 KT'''.
* RNP approaches (IAC-9, IAC-10): if you want one, '''tell Erhaç Approach on first contact'''.
* After landing, vacate the runway and contact '''Ground 121.65''' unless told otherwise.
* Non-scheduled flights: '''check NOTAMs''', because of heavy (military) training flights (AD 2.20 C).
* Aircraft without two-way radio need '''prior permission''' (AD 2.20 B).


=== Low Visibility Procedure ===
The AIP has no low visibility procedures for LTAT. The only precision approach is '''ILS CAT I''' to RWY 21L. Stop bars and runway guard lights are '''not available''' (AD 2.9).

Other navaids: '''ERH''' DVOR/DME 112.0 MHz (CH57X) and '''ERH''' NDB 421 kHz (coverage 100 NM), both north-east of the field at the same site. '''ERH''' TACAN CH82X is on the airfield. '''ERH DVOR/DME is unusable''' between R125–R180 beyond 30 NM below 13,000 ft, and between R250–R280 beyond 20 NM below 19,000 ft. On STAR-2 and STAR-4, '''DME information is based on the ERH TACAN (CH82X)'''.

=== STARs ===
All conventional STARs end at the '''ERH VOR/NDB''' (holding inbound '''025°''', max IAS 230 KT; 7,700 ft is charted on the final segments inside 10 DME). Each chart uses a different navaid/DME combination, so the designator letter depends on the chart ATC assigns:

Inner segments are charted at FL110 (from SONSU/RASVA) and FL120 (from ASKER, OKUDU, DIGIL). Inside the ERH DME rings, 8,000–10,000 ft and then '''7,700 ft''' are charted. See the charts for full details.

==== RWY 21L/R (RNAV STAR-5) ====
The RNAV STARs end at '''CUSWA (FAF)''' at '''5,500 ft''', '''max 180 KT''', via '''SIMWO (IF)''' at 7,000 ft or above. Descent is "as cleared".

'''RWY 21L final approach (ILS Y / ILS X):''' after the base turn, intercept the final at 5,500 ft (D9 ERH / D10.16 IMLY). '''CUSWA (FAP)''' is at D7.5 ERH / D8.66 IMLY at 5,500 ft. Intercept the GP at 7.5 DME from ERH (8.66 DME from the GP/DME). The final track is 205°, the GP is 3° and you should be at 4,080 ft at D3 ERH / D4.16 IMLY.

'''RNP RWY 21L/21R final approach:''' CUSWA (FAF) 5,500 ft, max 180 KT → AT140 (21L) / AT240 (21R) at 4,080 ft or above → MA21L / MA21R (MAPt, fly-over, 1.9 NM before the threshold). The final descent angle is 3° (5.24%), and timing is not authorised for defining the MAPt.

'''Notes on all approach charts:'''
* '''Circling is not authorised west of the aerodrome due to high terrain.'''
* Max base turn speed is IAS 185 KT. Max holding speed is IAS 230 KT.

'''Minimum Sector Altitude''' (25 NM, ERH VOR/DME or NDB; sectors as bearings TO ERH): 090°–180°: 9,500 ft; 180°–270°: 9,500 ft; 270°–360°: 10,500 ft; 360°–090°: 10,000 ft. The minimum radar vectoring altitude chart (MRVC, a '''military''' "RAPCON" chart) shows 5,000–7,700 ft close to the aerodrome. It rises to 12,000–20,000 ft over the high terrain to the west and south-west. The MRVC also notes '''"ASR may be unusable between R130–R180 at any level and distance"'''.

=== Radio Failure ===
The general procedures in Türkiye AIP ENR 1.3 apply. The RNP charts (IAC-9, IAC-10) say to refer to LTAT AD 2.22 for radio failure procedures, but '''AD 2.22 is NIL''' in AIRAC 2610.


== Ground Operations ==
=== Ground Layout ===
In normal civil operations '''RWY 03R/21L''' is the only active runway. '''RWY 03L/21R is used as a taxiway by civil aircraft''' and ATC will refer to it as such. TWYs '''A''' and '''B''' connect the two runways at the 03 end, and TWYs '''C''' and '''D''' connect them at the 21 end. TWY '''G''' connects the apron with RWY 03R/21L near the RWY 21L end. Stop bars and runway guard lights are '''not available'''. Taxiways have edge lighting only, and RWY 21R has runway threshold identification lights (RTIL).

There are '''engine test areas''' at the 21 end of the aerodrome, and a '''Military VIP Apron''' next to the civil apron. The hook barrier (aircraft arrester system) and net barrier equipment is installed alongside the runways. On RWY 03R/21L, the hook barrier barracks are 85 m east/west of the centreline, 460 m from each threshold, and the net barrier posts (1.5 m high) are 56 m east/west of the centreline near both thresholds. On RWY 03L/21R, the hook barrier barracks are 61 m east/west of the centreline, 454 m from the 03L threshold.
[[File:LTAT_ADC.png|center|frameless|700px|Malatya Aerodrome Chart]]

=== Apron, Gates and Stands ===
[[File:LTAT_PRKG.png|thumb|right|350px|Aircraft Parking/Docking Chart (AIP AD 2 LTAT PRKG)]]
The civil '''Apron''' is in front of the terminal and connected to the runway system by '''TWY G'''. It has '''7 stands''':
* '''Stands 1–5''': B737-800 / A321
* '''Stand 6''': B737-800
* '''Stand 7''': A310
The '''Military VIP Apron''' is south-west of the civil apron.


==== De-icing ====
De-icing is available during aerodrome working hours (Type 2 KILFROST ABC-3 fluid and a de-icing car). The AIP publishes no de-icing pad or procedure.


=== Planning Taxi Time ===
All civil traffic taxis via the apron, TWY G and RWY 03L/21R (used as taxiway).
* '''RWY 21L''': intersection take-off from '''TWY G''' is published (TORA 3,000 m).
* '''RWY 03R''': departures taxi the full length of the field to the 03 end (TWY A/B).


=== ATIS ===
'''Erhaç Information''' is broadcast on '''129.325 MHz''' (UHF 339.85 MHz), H24. Always copy the ATIS before calling.

=== Obtaining Clearance ===
There is '''no separate Delivery position''' in the AIP. Call '''Erhaç Ground (121.65)''' for your ATC clearance. In your initial call, include your callsign, stand, destination and the ATIS letter you have received.


=== Pushback and Engine Start ===
Call Ground with your callsign and stand number when you are fully ready. Ground will either clear you or ask you to stand by.


=== Taxi Procedures ===
RWY 03L/21R is a taxiway for civil aircraft. Follow ATC's taxi instructions carefully, because there are no stop bars and military traffic (including arrested-landing equipment and engine test areas) shares the aerodrome.

=== Minimum Runway Occupancy Time for Departures ===
The AIP (AD 2.20) has '''no''' runway occupancy or pilot reaction-time rules for LTAT.


=== SIDs ===
All Malatya SIDs are '''conventional''' and route via the '''ERH VOR''' (SID-1, SID-2) or the '''ERH NDB''' (SID-3, SID-4). There are no RNAV SIDs. After take-off you climb on the extended runway track, turn left back to ERH, and then fly out on the ERH radial/bearing to the exit fix. Exit fixes are '''UREBO, RASVA, SONSU, DIGIL''' and '''OKUDU''', which should be the '''first point''' of your flight-planned route.

=== Noise Abatement Procedures ===
Aircraft certified to ICAO Annex 16 Vol. I '''Chapter 3''' must apply '''NADP-2'''; Chapter 2 aircraft apply NADP-1 only. All other aircraft apply NADP-1 or NADP-2. Noise abatement procedures apply until passing '''3,000 ft'''.

=== Airborne ===
Unless instructed otherwise, contact '''Erhaç Approach on 118.775''' after take-off, when Tower tells you to. Comply with all speed and altitude restrictions on the SID (max 204 KT until inbound to ERH, and the minimum climb gradient).
<blockquote>
'''TWR:''' THY7CM, contact Erhaç Approach 118.775, goodbye.

'''Pilot:''' Erhaç Approach 118.775, THY7CM, goodbye.

'''Pilot:''' Erhaç Approach, THY7CM, UREBO 1E.

== After Departure ==
After leaving the Malatya MTMA you will be handed over to '''Ankara Control''' depending on your exit fix and route.


Thank you for flying with TRvACC — hope to see you again in Malatya!

== VFR Procedures ==
The AIP has no published VFR routes for Malatya. It gives the following rules (AD 2.17, AD 2.23):
* The '''Erhaç CTR''' is a circle of '''5 NM''' radius centred on 382456N 0380459E, from '''SFC to 4,000 ft AMSL'''. That is only about 1,160 ft above aerodrome elevation.
* VFR traffic '''must not pass through the Erhaç CTR''' unless authorised by Erhaç Tower.
* VFR traffic '''not equipped with radio''' going to any aerodrome within the Malatya MTMA must not affect the instrument approach, missed approach and SID routes.
* Aircraft using the airport '''without two-way radio''' need '''prior permission''' (AD 2.20 B).
* A helicopter TLOF/FATO (36 × 76 m, elevation 2,730 ft, bearing 120, PAPI) is published in AD 2.16.
