6.10 CIRCUIT PATTERN
6.10.1 Circuit pattern for RWY 03 is left hand circuit. Nevertheless, air display aircraft are allowed to
join right hand circuit RWY 03 for landing or low overshoot.
6.11 TIMINGS
6.11.1 Time allowed for display will be measured from wheels roll for take-off or entry into display
area (if the aircraft holding at the holding point) until the aircraft touches down after completing the
display.
6.12 TAXI HOLDING POINT AND RUNWAY IN USE FOR AIR DISPLAY
6.12.1 Aircraft shall establish at taxi holding point at the minimum of 2 minutes before slot time.

34
6.13 R/T PHRASEOLOGY
6.13.1 Aircraft participating in the Flying Display will use the following frequencies as stipulated at
para 6.9.1
6.13.2 R/T Procedure.
a. The first contact (at least 15 minutes before take-off) is to be made on Surface
Movement frequency using the air display call sign and from then on as directed by ATC. ATC
will pass Altimeter Setting (QNH), prevailing ambient temperature, surface winds and runway
in use. This call is only to confirm to the tower that the aircraft is ready to perform the flight
as planned. Start-up will be at the aircrew’s discretion.
b. Taxi clearance will be on the same frequency. After obtaining clearance, the pilot will
taxi to the runway holding point ‘A’ for departure RWY 21.
c. Upon completion of the preceding aerobatic, ATC will instruct the aircraft in turn to
switch comm to Tower frequency. ‘Ready call’ is to be made by the formation leader or
aircraft captain. Expect clearance for line up and perform air display will be given immediately
after preceding aircraft has exit the runway via taxy way ‘B’/‘C’.
d. Upon landing, aircraft will exit via taxy way B’/ ‘C’ as directed by ATC on Tower/Display
frequency.
e. After vacating the runway, the pilot will change over to Surface Movement frequency
and taxi back to the parking area as briefed, if require revised instructions would be passed on
R/T by the ATC.
Note: Perform comms check with RAVEN on company frequency prior to taxy out.
6.14 VISUAL HOLDING AREA
6.14.1 Display aircraft that intends to get airborne and hold in the air until their allotted time slot,

6.15.1 Aircraft intending to carry out CDF and have been cleared to do so by the Air Display Director,
shall notify the ATC briefing unit by filing the FPL at least one hour prior to Expected Time of Departure
(ETD). Companies/Organizer/Pilot is to submit Display/Demonstration Flight Request as per Appendix
7.
6.15.2 All demonstration flights shall be conducted in Demo Area Alpha, Bravo or Charlie as stipulated
in Appendix 8. Allotment of sectors would be based on the density of traffic, nature of operation and
level of operations.

b. Maintain 4,500 ft; and
c. Proceed to overhead Bukit Chengkuan (Langkawi Radar antenna site) while keeping
clear of the approach/ departure path (8 degrees either side of RDL 214 VPL DVOR/DME). Orbit
overhead Bukit Chengkuan and look out for light signals from the Control Tower.

tower while keeping clear of the approach/ departure path (8 degrees either side of RDL 214
VPL DVOR/DME).
d. In the absence of the light signal, keep continuous look out for traffic, make low fly
pass over the runway and rock wing to attract the controller’s attention. Join the circuit again,
on the second final if there is no light signal from the control tower, make full stop landing and
vacate the runway as soon as possible.
6.19.3 Aircraft experiencing radio failure during the display flying shall:

wings to attract attention at any point. Formation lead is to assist the radio failure aircraft
and transmit intention to tower. Subsequent actions are to follow para 6.18.1 or para 6.18.2.
c. The decision to continue with the remaining formation aerobatic sequence, will be
subjected to the formation leader’s discretion and remaining slot time available.
d. Should an aircraft already in the air and waiting to carry out maneuvers, develop RCF,
37
follow actions as para 6.18.1 or para 6.18.2.
e. If the airfield is declared black and unable to land in Langkawi, leave the display area
on radial 090 from VPL initially. Maintain 6,000 ft on QNH and track to Langkawi TMA while
squawking transponder 7600.

West (West of Gunung Jerai). From overhead VBT, descend to 6,000 ft and track
outbound on radial 186 VBT/10nm. Adhered to ILS RWY 36 approach plate and land
at Butterworth airfield.
