ICAO Annex 14 Training Course
ICAO Annex 14 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation Aerodromes Volume 1 Aerodrome Design and Operations 4th Edition - July 2004 Welcome and introduction: Reason for course - Annex 14 provides the basic specification for aerodrome design and operations. It is by harmonisation of these rules that pilots and airlines can operate to aerodromes that are similar in nature in a global sense, so that safety for the travelling public can be maintained at the highest possible level. Knowledge of aerodrome standards is necessary for all personnel who are charged with duties associated with regulation and operation of aerodromes. Outline of the course Firstly I would like to review how Annex 14 came to be and how its contents are developed maintained and promulgated by ICAO Then we will look at the structure of the Annex itself and examine how it should be viewed by States and aerodrome operators Finally I would like to examine the information in the Annex in detail with regard to application of the standards and recommended practices by regulatory and operational organisations Housekeeping – as appropriate March 17 ICAO Annex 14 Training Course

ICAO – International Civil Aviation Organization [From ICAO Website] Foundation of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) The consequence of the studies initiated by the US and subsequent consultations between the Major Allies was that the US government extended an invitation to 55 States or authorities to attend, in November 1944, an International Civil Aviation Conference in Chicago. Fifty-four States attended this Conference end of which a Convention on International Civil Aviation was signed by 52 States set up the permanent International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) as a means to secure international co-operation an highest possible degree of uniformity in regulations and standards, procedures and organisation regarding civil aviation matters. At the same time the International Services Transit Agreement and the International Air Transport Agreement were signed. How ICAO works The constitution of ICAO is the Convention on International Civil Aviation, drawn up by a conference in Chicago in November and December 1944, and to which each ICAO Contracting State is a party. According to the terms of the Convention, the Organization is made up of an Assembly, a Council of limited membership with various subordinate bodies and a Secretariat. The chief officers are the President of the Council and the Secretary General. The Assembly, composed of representatives from all Contracting States, is the sovereign body of ICAO. It meets every three years, reviewing in detail the work of the Organization and setting policy for the coming years. It also votes a triennial budget. The Council, the governing body which is elected by the Assembly for a three-year term, is composed of 36 States. The Assembly chooses the Council Member States under three headings: States of chief importance in air transport, States which make the largest contribution to the provision of facilities for air navigation, and States whose designation will ensure that all major areas of the world are represented. As the governing body, the Council gives continuing direction to the work of ICAO. It is in the Council that Standards and Recommended Practices are adopted and incorporated as Annexes to the Convention on International Civil Aviation. The Council is assisted by the Air Navigation Commission (technical matters), the Air Transport Committee (economic matters), the Committee on Joint Support of Air Navigation Services and the Finance Committee. The Secretariat, headed by a Secretary General, is divided into five main divisions: the Air Navigation Bureau, the Air Transport Bureau, the Technical Co-operation Bureau, the Legal Bureau, and the Bureau of Administration and Services. In order that the work of the Secretariat shall reflect a truly international approach, professional personnel are recruited on a broad geographical basis. ICAO works in close co-operation with other members of the United Nations family such as the World Meteorological Organization, the International Telecommunication Union, the Universal Postal Union, the World Health Organization and the International Maritime Organization. Non-governmental organizations which also participate in ICAO's work include the International Air Transport Association, the Airports Council International, the International Federation of Air Line Pilots' Associations, and the International Council of Aircraft Owner and Pilot Associations.

FOREWORD Historical background Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) for Aerodromes were first adopted by the Council on 29 May 1951 pursuant to the provisions of Article 37 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation (Chicago 1944) and designated as Annex 14 to the Convention. The SARPs were based on recommendations of the Aerodromes, Air Routes and Ground Aids Division at its third session in September 1947 and at its fourth session in November 1949. Next Item is the foreword. It contains several important items Historical background, which includes a table showing the record of change to the Annex through the various amendment. Each Amendment is numbered, the source of the change is identified, the subject is briefly described and the adopted, effective and applicable dates are shown. Information is provided on action to be taken by Contracting States in relation to differences. By differences it is meant those items whereby a State determines to do something as a general national requirement that will be otherwise than as required by a SARP. Where a State permits an individual to do something other than comply with a SARP, it is not required or intended under Article 38 that such an exemption be notified. Article 38 places an obligation for States to notify ICAO when there is a difference between national regulations and practices and the international standards contained in an Annex. Any State which finds it impracticable to comply in all respects with any such international standard or procedure, or to bring its own regulations or practices into full accord with any international standard or procedure after amendment of the latter, or which deems it necessary to adopt regulations or practices differing in any particular respect from those established by an international standard, shall give immediate notification to the International Civil Aviation Organization of the differences between its own practice and that established by the international standard. In the case of amendments to international standards, any State which does not make the appropriate amendments to its own regulations or practices shall give notice to the Council within sixty days of the adoption of the amendment to the international standard, or indicate the action which it proposes to take. In any such case, the Council shall make immediate notification to all other states of the difference which exists between one or more features of an international standard and the corresponding national practice of that State. ICAO invites notification of differences between national regulations and practices and the recommended practices contained in an Annex when the notification would be important to the safety of air navigation. Where a difference is notified to ICAO regarding a standard, ICAO will publish the information, and States are also required to ensure the information regarding such differences is promulgated through their own Aeronautical Information Publication. CLICK Note that Annex 15 contains an additional requirement for States to publish differences to recommended practices in the AIP where such differences would be important to the safety of air navigation. An (c) AIP shall include a list of significant differences between the national regulations and practices of a State and the related ICAO Stnadards, recommended practices and procedures - in a form that would enable a user to differentiate readily the differences. So in effect, differences with standards need to be notified to ICAO who will cause them to be published in conjunction with the Annex, and States are required to publish differences with standards and recommended practices in AIP, especially where a difference with an recommended practice will impact on aviation safety.

FOREWORD Action by Contracting States Notification of differences under Article 38 Article 38 places an obligation for States to notify ICAO when there is a difference between national regulations and practices and the international standards contained in an Annex. Notification under Annex 15 Annex 15 requires the publication of differences between the national regulations and practices and the related ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices through the Aeronautical Information Service [FOREWORD Annex 14] Notification of differences. Article 38 places an obligation for States to notify ICAO when there is a difference between national regulations and practices and the international standards contained in an Annex. Notification under Annex 15 The attention of States is also drawn to the provisions of Annex 15 related to the publication of differences between their national regulations and practices and the related ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices through the Aeronautical Information Service, in addition to the obligation of States under Article 38 of the Convention.

FOREWORD Annex Components
1. Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) Standard “Any specification for physical characteristics, configuration, material, performance, personnel or procedure, the uniform application of which is recognised as necessary for the safety or regularity of international air navigation and to which Contracting States will conform in accordance with the Convention”. [Standards have been printed in light face roman and the operative verb “shall” is used. Example: The systems shall be suitable for both day and night operations.] Mostly ICAO specifications are promulgated as SARPs. As a matter of interest, it may be noted that 16 out of the 18 Annexes are of a technical nature and so fall to the Air Navigation Bureau to deal with. The other two Annexes (Facilitation and Security) are under the purview of the Air Transport Bureau. In this presentation we will be focussing only on the aspects that impinge on Annex 14 Aerodrome, so the process will be primarily that adopted for ANB activity ICAO defines a standard as any specification for physical characteristics, configuration, material, performance, personnel or procedure, the uniform application of which is recognised as necessary for the safety or regularity of international air navigation and to which Contracting States will conform in accordance with the Convention; in the event of impossibility of compliance, notification to the Council is mandatory under Article 38 of the Convention. March 17 ICAO Annex 14 Training Course

1. SARPs (continued) Recommended Practice “Any specification for physical characteristics, configuration, material, performance, personnel or procedure, the uniform application of which is recognised as desirable in the interest of safety , regularity or efficiency of international air navigation, and to which Contracting States will endeavour to conform in accordance with the Convention”. Recommended Practices have been printed in light face italics and the operative verb “should” is used. Example: Recommendation.— The installation setting angles for high-intensity obstacle lights, Types A and B, should be in accordance with Table 6-2. Mostly ICAO specifications are promulgated as SARPs. ICAO defines a recommended practice as any specification for physical characteristics, configuration, material, performance, personnel or procedure, the uniform application of which is recognised as desirable in the interest of safety, regularity or efficiency of international air navigation, and to which Contracting States will endeavour to conform in accordance with the Convention. Note the effective difference between a standard and a recommended practice. A standard is necessary for safety, a rp is desirable in the interest of safety. States must comply with a standard, but will endeavour to comply with a rp. March 17 ICAO Annex 14 Training Course

Chapter 1. General Annex 14 Vol. I contains: Standards and Recommended Practices (specifications) that prescribe the physical characteristics and obstacle limitation surfaces to be provided for at aerodromes, and certain facilities and technical services normally provided at an aerodrome. It is not intended that these specifications limit or regulate the operation of an aircraft. Note that the introduction clearly states that Annex 14 contains the minimum aerodrome specifications for aircraft of certain varying characteristics. Minimum means States may impose more stringent conditions if necessary, but bear in mind we are trying to establish harmonisation of requirements on a global basis. An imposed characteristic that exceeds an SARP is still a difference and may need to be notified to ICAO. Note also the reference to specifications referenced to a code system. This allows different specifications to apply to the same characteristic, depending on the type of aircraft expected to use the aerodrome, so that aerodromes used for small aircraft need not have the same extensive requirements that are necessary for aerodromes serving wide body or NLA (eg A380) operations. Eg runways, runway strips and taxiways can be narrower for the smaller aircraft. In planning and designing the aerodrome facilities, we sometimes refer to the most demanding aircraft (in specification terms) as the critical aircraft. Care needs to be taken as there may sometimes be different critical aircraft for separate characteristics, esp large heavy a/c v small fast aircraft with high pressure tyres.

It is not intended that these specifications limit or regulate the operation of an aircraft. March 17 ICAO Annex 14 Training Course

Chapter 1. General Annex 14 Vol. I does not contain: specifications relating to the overall planning of aerodromes (such as separation between adjacent aerodromes or capacity of individual aerodromes) or to economic and other non-technical factors that need to be considered in the development of an aerodrome. Information on these subjects is included in the Airport Planning Manual, Part 1. Specifications on aerodrome facilities related to aviation security [However, aviation security is an integral part of aerodrome planning and operations.

In particular be aware of definitions for: aerodrome, aerodrome elevation, ad ref field length, declared distances, instrument runway, manoeuvring area, movement area, non instrument runway, obstacle, OFZ, Runway, Runway Strip, RESA, RVR, SMS, Stopway March 17 ICAO Annex 14 Training Course

Chapter 1. General 1.2 Applicability The specifications, unless otherwise indicated in a particular context, shall apply to all aerodromes open to public use in accordance with the requirements of Article 15 of the Convention. The specifications of Annex 14, Volume I, Chapter 3 shall apply only to land aerodromes. The specifications in this volume shall apply, where appropriate, to heliports but shall not apply to stolports. 1.2.2 The specifications, unless otherwise indicated in a particular context, shall apply to all aerodromes open to public use in accordance with the requirements of Article 15 of the Convention. The specifications of Annex 14, Volume I, Chapter 3 shall apply only to land aerodromes. The specifications in this volume shall apply, where appropriate, to heliports but shall not apply to stolports. Note.- Although there are at present no specifications relating to stolports, it is intended that specifications for these aerodromes will be included as they are developed. In the interim, guidance material on stolports is given in the Stolport Manual. 1.2.3 Wherever a colour is referred to in this Annex, the specifications for that colour given in Appendix 1 shall apply. March 17 ICAO Annex 14 Training Course

Chapter 1. General 1.3 Common Reference Systems Horizontal reference system: World Geodetic System (WGS-84) shall be used as the horizontal (geodetic) reference system. Vertical reference system Mean sea level (MSL) datum shall be used as the vertical reference system. Temporal reference system The Gregorian calendar and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) shall be used as the temporal reference system. Ch 1 specifies the references systems in use, World Geodetic System for co-ordinates and mean seal level for elevations, Universal coordinated time for hours and minutes and the gregorian calendar for days, months and years. March 17 ICAO Annex 14 Training Course

Chapter 1. General 1.4 Certification of aerodromes Aerodromes used for international operations are to be certified by the State responsible: according to Annex 14 specifications, through an appropriate regulatory framework, that has established certification criteria and requires a manual with pertinent aerodrome information, and that has a SMS in operation Aerodrome certification is required for places used for international air transport, and recommended for other aerodromes open to public use . When certification is imposed, it must be done by the State responsible, that is the national aviation regulatory authority, and there must be compliance with Annex 14 specifications. The regulatory authority has to have an appropriate regulatory framework or program that has some sort of certification criteria. The criteria must incorporate provision for an aerodrome manual that details information about the aerodrome – site, facilities, services, equipment, operating procedures and organisation and management – that is approved or accepted by the authority before a certificate is granted. Certified aerodromes are now required to have an aerodrome safety management system in operation. Note that the Annex refers to aerodromes being certified, and in accordance with the definition of aerodrome, it could refer to a place that is used for rotary wing operations as well as places served by fixed wing aircraft operations. It is the type of activity (international operations) that determines the need for certification, not the type of aircraft being used. Note also that there is no distinction drawn as to whether the operations are cargo or passenger, or scheduled or non-scheduled. States have extended the criteria for certification, eg AUS, NZ and FAA have certification for ad use by a/c with more than 30 pass seats, intl or domestic ops.

Chapter 1. General 1.7 Reference code An aerodrome reference code — code number and letter — which is selected for aerodrome planning purposes shall be determined in accordance with the characteristics of the aeroplane for which an aerodrome facility is intended. [Table 1-1 Annex 14 Vol. I, Page 1-8] 1.7 Reference code Introductory Note.— The intent of the reference code is to provide a simple method for interrelating the numerous specifications concerning the characteristics of aerodromes so as to provide a series of aerodrome facilities that are suitable for the aeroplanes that are intended to operate at the aerodrome. The code is not intended to be used for determining runway length or pavement strength requirements. The code is composed of two elements which are related to the aeroplane performance characteristics and dimensions. Element 1 is a number based on the aeroplane reference field length and element 2 is a letter based on the aeroplane wing span and outer main gear wheel span. A particular specification is related to the more appropriate of the two elements of the code or to an appropriate combination of the two code elements. The code letter or number within an element selected for design purposes is related to the critical aeroplane characteristics for which the facility is provided. When applying Annex 14, Volume I, the aeroplanes which the aerodrome is intended to serve are first identified and then the two elements of the code. 1.7.1 An aerodrome reference code — code number and letter — which is selected for aerodrome planning purposes shall be determined in accordance with the characteristics of the aeroplane for which an aerodrome facility is intended. March 17 ICAO Annex 14 Training Course

Chapter 1. General 1.7 Reference code (continued) 1.7 Reference code (continued) 1.7.2 The aerodrome reference code numbers and letters shall have the meanings assigned to them in Table 1-1. 1.7.3 The code number for element 1 shall be determined from Table 1-1, column 1, selecting the code number corresponding to the highest value of the aeroplane reference field lengths of the aeroplanes for which the runway is intended. Note.— The determination of the aeroplane reference field length is solely for the selection of a code number and is not intended to influence the actual runway length provided. 1.7.4 The code letter for element 2 shall be determined from Table 1-1, column 3, by selecting the code letter which corresponds to the greatest wing span, or the greatest outer main gear wheel span, whichever gives the more demanding code letter of the aeroplanes for which the facility is intended. Note.— Guidance to assist the appropriate authority in determining the aerodrome reference code is given in the Aerodrome Design Manual, (Doc 9157) Parts 1 and 2.
