  1. Intensive training operations with helicopters and light aircraft. Light aircraft and model flying daily outside OPR HR. Glider site Noordkop is located 8 NM E of ARP, just outside the CTR.
  2. VFR traffic crossing the CTR shall be carried out via the VFR reporting points (see visual approach chart) at 1500 FT AMSL, unless otherwise instructed or approved by ATC.
  3. Visual traffic circuit: RWY 03 right-hand 1000 FT AMSL; RWY 21 left-hand 1000 FT AMSL.
  4. Overflying the gas plant (0.5 NM east of ARP) is prohibited.

EHKD AD 2.21 NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

1 LIMITATIONS
  1. Avoid overflying Den Helder 2 NM NNW of ARP.
  2. Built-up areas shall be avoided as much as possible.
  3. Avoid overflying campsite SE of FOXTROT below 1500 FT AMSL.
  4. Due to noise abatement over Julianadorp, RNP Y approach RWY 03 only available when reported cloudbase is below 500 FT.

EHKD AD 2.22 FLIGHT PROCEDURES

1 DEPARTURE PROCEDURES
1.1 ATC en-route clearance

ATC will issue an en-route permission as soon as possible after taxi permission has been given.

An en-route clearance contains:

  1. Clearance limit: airport of destination.
  2. Departure instructions.
  3. SSR code.

Example of an en-route clearance: "RNN345 is cleared to London, SPL 3000 FT, squawk 2123".

1.2 General remarks
1.2.1 North Sea operations and helicopter main routes (HMR)

North Sea operations and HMR are described in ENR 2.2, ENR 3.4 and on chart ENR 6-3.1.

1.3 Maximum speed

MAX 250 KIAS below FL 100 unless otherwise instructed.

1.4 Transfer of control

Transfer of control will be effected on the basis of current traffic situation and co-ordination between the units involved.

Traffic via the Schiphol TMAs will be transferred to Schiphol Departure.

1.5 Communication failure
  • Select transponder code 7600.
  • If possible call Amsterdam ACC Supervisor on telephone number +31 (0)20 406 3999.
    Use telephone connection to mitigate COM failure only. All telephone calls will be automatically recorded.
  • If telephone connection is disconnected prematurely (before read-back), revert to general communication failure procedure (see ENR 1.3).
1.6 SID descriptions
1.6.1 General remarks
  • Transition altitude: 3000 FT AMSL.
  • Turn radii based on a 18° bank angle and 125 KIAS.
  • Procedures are designated for helicopters only.
  • RNAV: The Netherlands encourages the use of RNAV routes stored in a pre-programmed navigation database on board of aircraft. Although there may be differences between the RNAV and conventional description of a route (vertically: turn altitudes and/or laterally: turn anticipation effects), the resulting flight paths are considered identical by ATC. Therefore, flying the route using the RNAV coding from the navigation database will not result in route violations.
    Furthermore:
    • Connect FMS as early as possible.
    • The KD-waypoints shall not be used in RTF procedures.
    • Turn anticipation is mandatory for all waypoints except those which are underlined, these waypoints shall be overflown.
    • The navigation aid (e.g. VOR) mentioned in the column "Expected path terminator" is for selection of MAG station declination only.
1.6.2 Specific remarks
  1. Only for off-shore helicopters.
  2. Only AVBL when northern part of EHR8 (North of 52°58'N) is not active.
  3. Only AVBL when middle part of EHR8 (between 52°51'N and 52°58'N) is not active.
  4. Only AVBL when southern part of EHR8 (South of 52°51'N) is not active.
  5. RNAV 1 required.

3 LOW VISIBILITY PROCEDURES

During periods of low visibility the overall ATC capacity could be reduced. To guarantee aircraft safety and optimal use of ATC capacity, De Kooy uses low visibility procedures.

PhaseConditionsProcedure
  1. In contrast to Annex 2 military aerodromes define ceiling as 3/8 (SCT) or more.
ARVR <= 1500 M and/or ceiling <= 300 FT1)All WIP on airside will be terminated.
Seperation between landing aircraft will be increased to 8 NM.
No opposite runway take-off and landing.
BRVR < 550 MDepartures only.
No simultaneous ground movements.
CRVR < 300 MThe airport is below operational minima for arriving and departing aircraft.
4 VFR FLIGHT PROCEDURES
visual approach chart see AD 2.EHKD-VAC
4.1 VFR departures
  1. Unless otherwise instructed or approved climb after take-off to 1000 FT AMSL.
  2. Departure routes:

EHKD AD 2.23 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

1 EHR8 (Den Helder)

EHR8 is active MON-THU 0700-2300 (0600-2200), FRI 0700-1600 (0600-1500), or activated by NOTAM: see ENR 5.1.
This area is partly overlapping the CTR, the east boundary of EHR8 is situated east of the dunes.

2 PPR civil traffic

Civil traffic requesting prior permission contact Den Helder Airport:

A standard request form can be obtained through the above mentioned email address or can be found on the webpage of Den Helder Airport https://denhelderairport.nl/eng/information-for-pilots/. When intending a full stop landing at De Kooy, please also include refuel, accommodation or other requirements.

only fully completed requests will be considered.
3 DISPLACED RUNWAY END RWY 03

After landing RWY 03, passing the runway end lights at taxiing speed is allowed. Beyond the runway end lights the pavement is classified as taxiway and equipped with alternating green/yellow centre line lights up to exit D1.

Take-off RWY 21 is allowed from the runway extremity.


4 DETERMINATION OF DATUM LINE FOR INTERSECTION TAKE-OFF

The datum line from which the reduced runway declared distances for take-off should be determined is defined by the intersection of the downwind edge of the specific taxiway with the runway edge.
The loss of runway length due to alignment of the aircraft prior to take-off should be taken into account by the operators for the calculation of the aircraft’s take-off mass (ICAO Annex 6, Part 1, paragraph 5.2.8).
