SEPARATION
Issue traffic information to each aircraft operating on
intersecting runways.
a. Separate an arriving aircraft using one runway
from another aircraft using an intersecting runway or
a nonintersecting runway when the flight paths
intersect by ensuring that the arriving aircraft does
not cross the landing threshold or flight path of the
other aircraft until one of the following conditions
exists:
REFERENCE-
FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 2-1-21, Traffic Advisories.
1. The preceding aircraft has departed and
passed the intersection/flight path or is airborne and
turning to avert any conflict.

NOTE-
When visual separation is being applied by the tower,
appropriate control instructions and traffic advisories
must be issued to ensure go around or missed approaches
avert any conflict with the flight path of traffic on the other
runway.
REFERENCE-
FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 7-2-1, Visual Separation, subpara a2.
b. “USA/USAF/USN NOT APPLICABLE.” An
aircraft may be authorized to takeoff from one
runway while another aircraft lands simultaneously
on an intersecting runway or an aircraft lands on one
runway while another aircraft lands simultaneously
on an intersecting runway, or an aircraft lands to hold
short of an intersecting taxiway or some other
predetermined point such as an approach/departure
flight path using procedures specified in the current
LAHSO directive. The procedure shall be approved
by the air traffic manager and be in accordance with
a facility directive. The following conditions apply:
NOTE-
Application of these procedures does not relieve
controllers from the responsibility of providing other
appropriate separation contained in this order.
REFERENCE-
FAAO JO 7210.3, Para_10-3-7, Land and Hold Short Operations
(LAHSO).
1. A simultaneous takeoff and landing operation
shall only be conducted in VFR conditions.
2. Instruct the landing aircraft to hold short of
the intersecting runway being used by the aircraft
taking off. In the case of simultaneous landings and
no operational benefit is lost, restrict the aircraft of
the lesser weight category (if known). LAHSO
clearances shall only be issued to aircraft that are
listed in the current LAHSO directive, whose
Available Landing Distance (ALD) does not exceed
the landing distance requirement for the runway
condition.
PHRASEOLOGY-
HOLD SHORT OF RUNWAY (runway number), (traffic,
type aircraft or other information).
NOTE-
Pilots who prefer to use the full length of the runway or a
runway different from that specified are expected to advise
ATC prior to landing.
3. Issue traffic information to both aircraft
involved and obtain an acknowledgment from each.
Request a read back of hold short instructions when
they are not received from the pilot of the restricted
aircraft.
EXAMPLE1. “Runway one eight cleared to land, hold short of
runway one four left, traffic, (type aircraft) landing runway
one four left.”
(When pilot of restricted aircraft responds with only
acknowledgment):
“Runway one four left cleared to land, traffic, (type
aircraft) landing runway one eight will hold short of the
intersection.”
JO 7110.65S 2/14/08

“Read back hold short instructions.”
2. “Runway three six cleared to land, hold short of runway
three three, traffic, (type aircraft) departing runway three
three.”
“Traffic, (type aircraft) landing runway three six will hold
short of the intersection, runway three three cleared for
takeoff.”
4. Issue the measured distance from the landing
threshold to the hold short point rounded “down” to
the nearest 50-foot increment if requested by either
aircraft.
EXAMPLE“Five thousand fifty feet available.”
5. The conditions in subparas b2, 3, and 4 shall
be met in sufficient time for the pilots to take other
action, if desired, and no later than the time landing
clearance is issued.
6. Land and Hold Short runways must be free of
any contamination as described in the current
LAHSO directive, with no reports that braking action
is less than good.
7. There is no tailwind for the landing aircraft
restricted to hold short of the intersection. The wind
may be described as “calm” when appropriate.
REFERENCE-
FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 2-6-5, Calm Wind Conditions.
8. The aircraft required landing distances are
listed in the current LAHSO directive.
9. STOL aircraft operations are in accordance
with a letter of agreement with the aircraft
operator/pilot or the pilot confirms that it is a STOL
aircraft.
WAKE TURBULENCE APPLICATION
c. Separate IFR/VFR aircraft landing behind a
departing heavy jet/B757 on a crossing runway if the
arrival will fly through the airborne path of the
departure- 2 minutes or the appropriate radar
separation minima. (See FIG 3-10-10.)
d. Issue wake turbulence cautionary advisories,
the position, altitude if known, and direction of flight
of the heavy jet/B757 to:
REFERENCE-

REFERENCE-
FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 7-4-4, Approaches to Multiple Runways.
3-10-5. LANDING CLEARANCE
a. Issue landing clearance. Restate the landing
runway whenever more than one runway is active, or
an instrument approach is being conducted to a closed
runway.
PHRASEOLOGY-
CLEARED TO LAND,
or
RUNWAY (designator) CLEARED TO LAND.
b. Do not clear an aircraft for a full-stop,
touch-and-go, stop-and-go, option, or unrestricted
low approach when a departing aircraft has been
instructed to taxi into position and hold, is taxiing into
position, or is holding in position on the same runway.
The landing clearance may be issued once the aircraft
in position has started takeoff roll.
c. “USN NOT APPLICABLE.” Inform the closest
aircraft that is requesting a full-stop, touch-and-go,
stop-and-go, option, or unrestricted low approaches
when there is traffic authorized to taxi into position
and hold on the same runway.
EXAMPLE“Delta One, continue, traffic holding in position.”
or
“Delta One, runway one eight, continue, traffic holding in
position.”
d. During same runway operations, while TIPH is
being applied, landing clearance must be withheld if
the safety logic system to that runway is inoperative
or in limited configuration or conditions are less than
reported ceiling 800 feet or visibility less than
2_miles.
EXAMPLE-
If the safety logic system is operating in full core alert
runway configuration:
“Delta One, cleared to land. Traffic holding in position.”
or
“Delta One, runway one eight, cleared to land. Traffic
holding in position.”
e. USA/USN. Issue surface wind when clearing an
aircraft to land, touch-and-go, stop-and-go, low
approach, or the option. Restate the landing runway
whenever there is a possibility of a conflict with
another aircraft which is using or is planning to use
another runway.
PHRASEOLOGY-
WIND (surface wind direction and velocity), CLEARED
TO LAND,
or
WIND (surface wind direction and velocity), RUNWAY
(designator) CLEARED TO LAND.
NOTE-
A clearance to land means that appropriate separation on
the landing runway will be ensured. A landing clearance
does not relieve the pilot from compliance with any
previously issued restriction.

3-10-6. ANTICIPATING SEPARATION
a. Landing clearance to succeeding aircraft in a
landing sequence need not be withheld if you observe
the positions of the aircraft and determine that
prescribed runway separation will exist when the
aircraft cross the landing threshold. Issue traffic
information to the succeeding aircraft if not
previously reported and appropriate traffic holding in
position or departing prior to their arrival.
EXAMPLE“American Two Forty-Five cleared to land, number two
following United Boeing Seven-Thirty-Seven two mile
final, traffic will depart prior to your arrival.”
“American Two Forty-Five cleared to land, number two
following United Boeing Seven-Thirty-Seven two mile
final, traffic will be an MD 88 holding in position.”
“American Two Forty-Five cleared to land, following
United Boeing Seven-Thirty-Seven two mile final, traffic
will depart prior to your arrival.”
NOTE-
Landing sequence number is optional at tower facilities
where arrivals are sequenced by the approach control.
b. Anticipating separation must not be applied
when conducting TIPH operations, except as
restricted in para 3-10-5d.
REFERENCE-
FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 3-3-2, Closed/Unsafe Runway Information.
FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 3-10-5, Landing Clearance, subpara c, not
required if utilizing the provisions of Para 3-10-6, Anticipating
Separation.
P/CG Term- Clear of the Runway.
3-10-7. LANDING CLEARANCE WITHOUT
VISUAL OBSERVATION
When an arriving aircraft reports at a position where
he/she should be seen but has not been visually
observed, advise the aircraft as a part of the landing
clearance that it is not in sight and restate the landing
runway.
PHRASEOLOGY-
NOT IN SIGHT, RUNWAY (number) CLEARED TO
LAND.
NOTE-
Aircraft observance on the CTRD satisfies the visually
observed requirement.
3-10-8. WITHHOLDING LANDING
CLEARANCE
Do not withhold a landing clearance indefinitely even
though it appears a violation of Title 14 of the Code
of Federal Regulations has been committed. The
apparent violation might be the result of an
emergency situation. In any event, assist the pilot to
the extent possible.
3-10-9. RUNWAY EXITING
a. Instruct aircraft where to turn-off the runway
after landing, when appropriate, and advise the
aircraft to hold short of a runway or taxiway if
required for traffic.
PHRASEOLOGY-
TURN LEFT/RIGHT (taxiway/runway),
or
IF ABLE, TURN LEFT/RIGHT (taxiway/runway)
and if required
HOLD SHORT OF (runway).
NOTE-
Runway exiting or taxi instructions should not normally be
issued to an aircraft prior to, or immediately after,
touchdown.
b. Taxi instructions shall be provided to the
aircraft by the local controller when:
1. Compliance with ATC instructions will be
required before the aircraft can change to ground
control, or
2. The aircraft will be required to enter an active
runway in order to taxi clear of the landing runway.
EXAMPLE“U.S. Air Ten Forty Two, turn right next taxiway, cross
runway two one, contact ground point seven.”
“U.S. Air Ten Forty Two, turn right on Alfa/next taxiway,
cross Bravo, hold short of Charlie, contact ground point
seven.”
NOTE1. An aircraft is expected to taxi clear of the runway unless
otherwise directed by ATC. Pilots shall not exit the landing
runway on to an intersecting runway unless authorized by
ATC. In the absence of ATC instructions, an aircraft should
taxi clear of the landing runway by clearing the hold
position marking associated with the landing runway even
if that requires the aircraft to protrude into or enter another
JO 7110.65S 2/14/08
3-10-8 Arrival Procedures and Separation
taxiway/ramp area. This does not authorize an aircraft to
cross a subsequent taxiway or ramp after clearing the
landing runway.
REFERENCE-
P/CG Term- Clear of the Runway.
2. The pilot is responsible for ascertaining when the
aircraft is clear of the runway by clearing the runway
holding position marking associated with the landing
runway.
c. Ground control and local control shall protect a
taxiway/runway/ramp intersection if an aircraft is
required to enter that intersection to clear the landing
runway.
REFERENCE-
FAAO JO 7210.3, Para 10-1-7, Use of Active Runways.
d. Request a read back of runway hold short
instructions when not received from the pilot.
EXAMPLE“American Four Ninety-two, turn left at Taxiway Charlie,
hold short of Runway 27 Right.”
or
“American Four Ninety-two, turn left at Charlie, hold
short of Runway 27 Right.”
“American Four Ninety Two, Roger.”
“American Four Ninety-two, read back hold
instructions.”
NOTE-
Read back hold instructions phraseology may be initiated
for any point on a movement area when the controller
believes the read back is necessary.
3-10-10. ALTITUDE RESTRICTED LOW
APPROACH
A low approach with an altitude restriction of not less
than 500 feet above the airport may be authorized
except over an aircraft in takeoff position or a
departure aircraft. Do not clear aircraft for restricted
altitude low approaches over personnel unless airport
authorities have advised these personnel that the
approaches will be conducted. Advise the approaching aircraft of the location of applicable ground
traffic, personnel, or equipment.
NOTE1. The 500 feet restriction is a minimum. Higher altitudes
should be used when warranted. For example, 1,000 feet is
more appropriate for heavy aircraft operating over
unprotected personnel or small aircraft on or near the
runway.
2. This authorization includes altitude restricted low
approaches over preceding landing or taxiing aircraft.
Restricted low approaches are not authorized over aircraft
in takeoff position or departing aircraft.
PHRASEOLOGY-
CLEARED LOW APPROACH AT OR ABOVE (altitude).
TRAFFIC (description and location).

3-10-11. CLOSED TRAFFIC
Approve/disapprove pilot requests to remain in
closed traffic for successive operations subject to
local traffic conditions.
PHRASEOLOGY-
LEFT/RIGHT (if required) CLOSED TRAFFIC
APPROVED. REPORT (position if required),
or
UNABLE CLOSED TRAFFIC, (additional information as
required).
NOTE-
Segregated traffic patterns for helicopters to runways and
other areas may be established by letter of agreement or
other local operating procedures.

FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 3-10-3, Same Runway Separation.
3-10-12. OVERHEAD MANEUVER
Issue the following to arriving aircraft that will
conduct an overhead maneuver:
a. Pattern altitude and direction of traffic. Omit
either or both if standard or when you know the pilot
is familiar with a nonstandard procedure.
PHRASEOLOGY-
PATTERN ALTITUDE (altitude). RIGHT TURNS.
b. Request for report on initial approach.
PHRASEOLOGY-
REPORT INITIAL.
JO 7110.65S 2/14/08
3-10-9
Arrival Procedures and Separation
c. “Break” information and request for pilot
report. Specify the point of “break” only if
nonstandard. Request the pilot to report “break” if
required for traffic or other reasons.
PHRASEOLOGY-
BREAK AT (specified point).
REPORT BREAK.
d. Overhead maneuver patterns are developed at
airports where aircraft have an operational need to
conduct the maneuver. An aircraft conducting an
overhead maneuver is on VFR and the IFR flight plan
is cancelled when the aircraft reaches the “initial
point” on the initial approach portion of the
maneuver. The existence of a standard overhead
maneuver pattern does not eliminate the possible
requirement for an aircraft to conform to conventional rectangular patterns if an overhead maneuver
cannot be approved.
NOTE-
Aircraft operating to an airport without a functioning
control tower must initiate cancellation of the IFR flight
plan prior to executing the overhead maneuver or after
landing.
FIG 3-10-13
Overhead Maneuver
EXAMPLE“Air Force Three Six Eight, Runway Six, wind zero seven
zero at eight, pattern altitude six thousand, report initial.”
“Air Force Three Six Eight, break at midfield, report
break.”
“Air Force Three Six Eight, cleared to land.”
“Alfa Kilo Two Two, Runway Three One, wind three three
zero at one four, right turns, report initial.”
“Alfa Kilo Two Two, report break.”
“Alfa Kilo Two Two, cleared to land.”
e. Timely and positive controller action is required
to prevent a conflict when an overhead pattern could
extend into the path of a departing or a missed
approach aircraft. Local procedures and/or coordination requirements should be set forth in an
appropriate letter of agreement, facility directive,
base flying manual etc., when the frequency of
occurrence warrants.

3-10-13. SIMULATED FLAMEOUT (SFO)
APPROACHES/EMERGENCY LANDING
PATTERN (ELP) OPERATIONS/PRACTICE
PRECAUTIONARY APPROACHES
a. Authorize military aircraft to make SFO/ELP/
practice precautionary approaches if the following
conditions are met:
1. A letter of agreement or local operating
procedure is in effect between the military flying
organization and affected ATC facility.
(a) Include specific coordination, execution,
and approval procedures for the operation.
(b) The exchange or issuance of traffic
information as agreed to in any interfacility letter of
agreement is accomplished.
(c) Include a statement in the procedure that
clarifies at which points SFOs/ELPs may/may not be
terminated. (See FIG 3-10-14 and FIG 3-10-16.)
2. Traffic information regarding aircraft in radio
communication with or visible to tower controllers
which are operating within or adjacent to the
flameout maneuvering area is provided to the
SFO/ELP aircraft and other concerned aircraft.
3. The high-key altitude or practice precautionary approach maneuvering altitudes of the aircraft
concerned are obtained prior to approving the
approach. (See FIG 3-10-14 and FIG 3-10-16.)
NOTE1. Practice precautionary/SFO/ELP approaches are
authorized only for specific aircraft. Any aircraft, however,
might make precautionary approaches, when engine
failure is considered possible. The practice precautionary
approach maneuvering area/altitudes may not conform to
the standard SFO/ELP maneuvering area/altitudes.
2. SFO/ELP approaches generally require high descent
rates. Visibility ahead and beneath the aircraft is greatly
restricted.
3. Pattern adjustments for aircraft conducting SFOs and
ELPs may impact the effectiveness of SFO and ELP
training.

b. For overhead SFO/ELP approaches:
1. Request a report at the entry point.
PHRASEOLOGY-
REPORT (high or low) KEY (as appropriate).
2. Request a report at low key.
PHRASEOLOGY-
REPORT LOW KEY.
3. At low key, issue low approach clearance or
alternate instructions.

Helicopter Operations
Section 11. Helicopter Operations
3-11-1. TAXI AND GROUND MOVEMENT
OPERATION
a. When necessary for a wheeled helicopter to taxi
on the surface, use the phraseology in para_3-7-2,
Taxi and Ground Movement Operations.
NOTE-
Ground taxiing uses less fuel than hover-taxiing and
minimizes air turbulence. However, under certain
conditions, such as rough, soft, or uneven terrain, it may
become necessary to hover/air-taxi for safety considerations. Helicopters with articulating rotors (usually designs
with three or more main rotor blades) are subject to
“ground resonance” and may, on rare occasions, suddenly
lift off the ground to avoid severe damage or destruction.
b. When requested or necessary for a helicopter/
VTOL aircraft to proceed at a slow speed above the
surface, normally below 20 knots and in ground
effect, use the following phraseology, supplemented
as appropriate with the phraseology in para 3-7-2,
Taxi and Ground Movement Operations.
PHRASEOLOGY-
HOVER-TAXI (supplemented, as appropriate, from
para_3-7-2, Taxi and Ground Movement Operations.)
CAUTION (dust, blowing snow, loose debris, taxiing light
aircraft, personnel, etc.).
NOTE-
Hover-taxiing consumes fuel at a high burn rate, and
helicopter downwash turbulence (produced in ground
effect) increases significantly with larger and heavier
helicopters.
REFERENCE-
P/CG Term- Hover Taxi.
AIM, Para 4-3-17, VFR Helicopter Operations at Controlled Airports.
c. When requested or necessary for a helicopter to
proceed expeditiously from one point to another,
normally below 100 feet AGL and at airspeeds above
20 knots, use the following phraseology, supplemented as appropriate with the phraseology in
para_3-7-2, Taxi and Ground Movement Operations.
PHRASEOLOGY-
AIR-TAXI:
VIA (direct, as requested, or specified route)
TO (location, heliport, helipad, operating/movement area,
active/inactive runway).
AVOID (aircraft/vehicles/personnel).
If required,
REMAIN AT OR BELOW (altitude).
CAUTION (wake turbulence or other reasons above).
LAND AND CONTACT TOWER,
or
HOLD FOR (reason- takeoff clearance, release,
landing/taxiing aircraft, etc.).
NOTE-
Air-taxi is the preferred method for helicopter movements
on airports provided ground operations/conditions permit.
Air-taxi authorizes the pilot to proceed above the surface
either via hover-taxi or flight at speeds more than 20 knots.
Unless otherwise requested or instructed, the pilot is
expected to remain below 100 feet AGL. The pilot is solely
responsible for selecting a safe airspeed for the
altitude/operation being conducted.
REFERENCE-
P/CG Term- Air Taxi.
AIM, Para 4-3-17, VFR Helicopter Operations at Controlled Airports.
WAKE TURBULENCE APPLICATION
d. Avoid clearances which require small aircraft or
helicopters to taxi in close proximity to taxiing or
hover-taxi helicopters.
REFERENCE-
AC 90-23, Aircraft Wake Turbulence, Para 10 and Para 11.
3-11-2. HELICOPTER TAKEOFF
CLEARANCE
a. Issue takeoff clearance from movement areas
other than active runways, or in diverse directions
from active runways, with additional instructions, as
necessary. Whenever possible, issue takeoff clearance in lieu of extended hover-taxi or air-taxi
operations.
PHRASEOLOGY(Present position, taxiway, helipad, numbers) MAKE
RIGHT/LEFT TURN FOR (direction, points of compass,
heading, NAVAID radial) DEPARTURE/DEPARTURE
ROUTE (number, name, or code), AVOID (aircraft/
vehicles/personnel),

REMAIN (direction) OF (active runways, parking areas,
passenger terminals, etc.).
CAUTION (power lines, unlighted obstructions, trees,
wake turbulence, etc.).
CLEARED FOR TAKEOFF.
b. If takeoff is requested from nonmovement areas
and, in your judgment, the operation appears to be
reasonable, use the following phraseology instead of
the takeoff clearance in subpara a.
PHRASEOLOGY-
PROCEED AS REQUESTED, USE CAUTION (reason
and additional instructions, as appropriate).
c. If takeoff is requested from an area not visible,
an area not authorized for helicopter use, an unlighted
nonmovement area at night, or an area off the airport,
and traffic is not a factor, use the following
phraseology.
PHRASEOLOGY-
DEPARTURE FROM (requested location) WILL BE AT
YOUR OWN RISK (reason and additional instructions, as
necessary).
d. Unless requested by the pilot, do not issue
downwind takeoffs if the tailwind exceeds 5 knots.
NOTE-
A pilot request to takeoff from a given point in a given
direction constitutes such a request.
3-11-3. HELICOPTER DEPARTURE
SEPARATION
Separate a departing helicopter from other helicopters by ensuring that it does not takeoff until one
of the following conditions exists:
NOTE-
Helicopters performing air-taxiing operations within the
boundary of the airport are considered to be taxiing
aircraft.
a. A preceding, departing helicopter has left the
takeoff area. (See FIG 3-11-1.)

centerline, other).
REMAIN (direction/distance; e.g., 700 feet, 1 1/2 miles)
FROM (runway, runway centerline, other helicopter/
aircraft).
CAUTION (power lines, unlighted obstructions, wake turbulence, etc.).
