ED Decision 2020/008/R

APPLICATION OF SEPARATION MINIMA TO IDENTIFIED AIRCRAFT

(a)     When the control of an identified aircraft is to be transferred to a control sector that will provide the aircraft with procedural separation, the transferring air traffic controller should ensure that appropriate procedural separation is established between that aircraft and any other controlled aircraft before the transfer is effected.

(b)     When the control of an identified aircraft is to be transferred to a control sector that will provide the aircraft with procedural separation, such separation should be established by the transferring air traffic controller before the aircraft reaches the limits of the transferring air traffic controller’s area of responsibility, or before the aircraft leaves the relevant area of surveillance coverage.
