IN RESPECT OF THE AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SERVICE PROVISION — GENERAL
(a) The coordination and transfer of control of a flight between successive air traffic control units and control sectors should be effected by a dialogue comprising the following stages:
(1) notification of the flight in order to prepare for coordination, as necessary;
(2) coordination of conditions of transfer of control by the transferring air traffic control unit;
(3) coordination, if necessary, and acceptance of conditions of transfer of control by the accepting control unit; and
(4) transfer of control to the accepting control unit or control sector.
(b) Air traffic control units should, to the extent possible, establish and apply standardised procedures for the coordination and transfer of control of flights, in order, inter alia, to reduce the need for verbal coordination. Such coordination procedures should be specified in letters of agreement and local instructions, as applicable.
