COORDINATION
IN RESPECT OF THE PROVISION OF FLIGHT INFORMATION SERVICE AND ALERTING SERVICE
(a) Coordination between air traffic services units providing flight information service in adjacent FIRs should be effected in respect of IFR and VFR flights, in order to ensure continued flight information service to such aircraft in specified areas or along specified routes. Such coordination should be effected in accordance with an agreement between the air traffic services units concerned.
(b) The coordination of flights effected in accordance with point (a) should include transmission of the following information on the flight concerned:
(1) appropriate items of the current flight plan; and
(2) the time at which last contact was made with the aircraft concerned.
(c) This information should be forwarded to the air traffic services unit in charge of the next FIR in which the aircraft will operate prior to the aircraft entering such FIR.
(d) In order to assist in the identification of strayed or unidentified aircraft and thereby eliminate or reduce the need for interception, flight plan and flight progress information for flights along specified routes or portions of routes in close proximity to FIR boundaries should also be provided to the air traffic services units in charge of the FIRs adjacent to such routes or portions of routes.
(e) In circumstances where an aircraft has declared minimum fuel or is experiencing an emergency or in any other situation wherein the safety of the aircraft is not assured, the type of emergency and/or the circumstances experienced by the aircraft should be reported by the transferring unit to the accepting control unit and any other air traffic services unit that may be concerned with the flight and to the associated rescue coordination centres, if necessary.
