For a taxi-in, push-back procedure, where can the clearance distance for code letter E be reduced?

Between the terminal (including passenger loading bridges) and the nose of an aircraft, and over a portion of the stand provided with azimuth guidance by a visual docking guidance system.

Is the reduction of clearance distance for code letter D allowed for height limited objects?

Yes, the minimum clearance distance for code letter D can be reduced for height limited objects.

Can the clearance distance for code letter F be reduced if the stand is restricted to aircraft with specific characteristics?

Yes, the minimum clearance distance for code letter F can be reduced if the stand is restricted for aircraft with specific characteristics.

CS ADR-DSN.E.365 Clearance distances on aircraft stands

Q: What is the safety objective of clearance distances on aircraft stands?

To provide safe separation between an aircraft using the stand and any adjacent building, aircraft on another stand and other objects.

Q: Under what conditions can the minimum clearance distance for code letters D, E and F be reduced?

The minimum clearance distance for code letters D, E and F can be reduced: (1) for height limited objects, (2) if the stand is restricted for aircraft with specific characteristics, and (3) in the following locations (for aircraft using a taxi-in, push-back procedure only): (i) between the terminal (including passenger loading bridges) and the nose of an aircraft; and (ii) over a portion of the stand provided with azimuth guidance by a visual docking guidance system.

CS ADR-DSN.E.365 Clearance distances on aircraft stands

ED Decision 2016/027/R

(a) The safety objective of clearance distances on aircraft stands is to provide safe separation between an aircraft using the stand and any adjacent building, aircraft on another stand and other objects.

(b) An aircraft stand should provide the following minimum clearances between an aircraft entering or exiting the stand and any adjacent building, aircraft on another stand and other objects:

Code Letter	Clearance
A	3 m
B	3 m
C	4.5 m
D	7.5 m
E	7.5 m
F	7.5 m

(1) for height limited objects,

(2) if the stand is restricted for aircraft with specific characteristics,

(3) in the following locations (for aircraft using a taxi-in, push-back procedure only):

(i) between the terminal (including passenger loading bridges) and the nose of an aircraft; and

(ii) over a portion of the stand provided with azimuth guidance by a visual docking guidance system.
