SLOP Mitigates Wake Turbulence and Collision Risk SLOP Guidelines Three positions: Centerline, 1 NM and 2 NM right Cannot exceed 2 NM Pacific Ops - Hawaii Procedures SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

SLOP Pilot Actions Avionics capable of performing automatic offset functions No auto-offset: fly centerline Not necessary to request offset from ATC, or to inform ATC that an offset is being flown Cross into the oceanic airspace over oceanic entry point (same for oceanic exit point) Position reporting as if crossing directly over the waypoints Pacific Ops - Hawaii Procedures SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

Possible In-flight Contingencies: Inability to maintain assigned flight level Enroute diversion across the prevailing traffic flow Loss of or significant reduction in required navigation capability Pacific Ops - Hawaii Contingencies SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

General Procedures: Obtain a revised clearance Transmit distress (MAYDAY) or urgency signal (PAN PAN) SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW Pacific Ops - Hawaii Contingencies

If revised clearance cannot be obtained : Leave the assigned route or track by initially turning 45 degr.right or to the left. Factors which may affect the direction of the turn are: Position of the aircraft relative to any organized route The direction to an alternate airport, terrain clearance; Any lateral offset being flown, and the flight levels allocated on adjacent routes or tracks. Pacific Ops - Hawaii Contingencies SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

If revised clearance cannot be obtained (cont’d): Following the turn, the pilot should: If unable to maintain the assigned FL, min. descent rate Take account of other aircraft being laterally offset from its track; Acquire and maintain in either direction a track laterally separated by 15 NM from the assigned route; and Once established on the offset track, climb or descend to select a flight level which differs from those normally used by 150 m (500 ft); Pacific Ops - Hawaii Contingencies SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

If revised clearance cannot be obtained (cont’d): Establish communications with other aircraft (121.5; ) Watch for conflicting traffic – Visually and TCAS Turn on all aircraft exterior lights Keep the transponder on Pacific Ops - Hawaii Contingencies SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

International Operations Review True or False 9. If revised clearance cannot be obtained the following frequencies can be used to establish communications with other aircraft:121.5 and SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

General: Initiate ATC communications: “Weather deviation required” PAN PAN (when necessary) State intentions and comply with ATC clearance Inform ATC when weather deviation is no longer required Pacific Ops - Hawaii Weather Deviation SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

No clearance can be obtained : If possible, deviate away from assigned route Establish communications with other aircraft (121.5; ) Watch for conflicting traffic – Visually and TCAS Turn on all aircraft exterior lights Pacific Ops - Hawaii Weather Deviation SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW

No clearance can be obtained (cont’d): For deviations < 10 NM; remain at assigned FL For deviations > 10 NM; change FL; Pacific Ops - Hawaii Weather Deviation A SSIGNED R OUTE D ESIRED T URN L EVEL C HANGE E AST (0-179) LEFT RIGHT D ESCEND 300 FT C LIMB 300 FT W EST ( ) LEFT RIGHT C LIMB 300 FT D ESCEND 300 FT SVE - I NTERNATIONAL O PS R EVIEW
