FEGP when serviceable
GPU - when FEGP is not serviceable
No APU is to be left running unless either a qualified person is in attendance or the APU has both an auto-shut

(ii) Operation on TWY (B1)

TWY (B1) is a viable for night operations subject to the following conditions:-

No centre line lights are provided other than the existing CAT-EYE reflectors.
Lights are provided.
No LEAD ON/LEAD off lights are provided.
STOP-BAR, at present, is illuminated continuously, where contrast and ON / OFF functionality still remains uncontrollable by ADC day and night.

ICAO resolution A37-19 emphasizes the importance of the International Civil Aviation to limit or reduce the Carbon Dioxide emissions from aircraft within a state boundary. For this reason Bahrain has adopted a procedure which will help in reducing the emission of CO2 from aircraft and allow for airline fuel conservation. Single Engine Taxi Operations may be exercised by multi--engine aircraft provided the following conditions are met:

The Pilots should be familiar with Bahrain International Airport in terms of aerodrome layout.
Pilots executing Single Engine Taxi Operation, should comply to ATC instructions as may be issued during taxiing without any delay.

In addition to the above, Single Engine Taxi Operations shall NOT be used if one of the following cases prevails:

If taxi or parking will involve a turn of 180 degrees or more.
The aircraft is on the active RWY or requesting to cross the RWY.

{iv} Stop Bars Holding

Aircraft or vehicles shall not cross a runway holding point until they have received verbal clearance from ATC and the STOP BAR has been extinguished.

STOP BARS shall not be crossed without specific ATC clearance as follows. Unable to turn STOP BARS off. Cross Red STOP BAR.

{v} Transponder Setting

All Transponder equipped aircraft shall select transponder to standby or off, when fully parked on the stand or gate.

OBBI AD 2.21 NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES - BAHRAIN

Circuit directions at BAHRAIN INTERNATIONAL airport are:

R WY 30L/ 30R: right hand;

RWY 12L / 12R: left hand.
Departing and arriving flights are not permitted to operate within the eighty - degree arc subtended by the 180° and 260° Radials of the BHR DVOR, and containing the main Bahrain Islands. Exceptionally , flights which the Controlling Authority has deemed operationally essential may be permitted to operate within this arc, provided they can remain either visually clear of the land, or be vectored clear by BAHRAIN APPROACH.
Usage of reverse thrust:

Usage of reverse thrust more than idle is not permitted during landing between the hours of 2100 and 0300, unless an aircraft is in an emergency and has been cleared to use the reverse thrust by the ATC.
Engine Run Ups at BAHRAIN INTERNATIONAL airport

Between the hours of 2100 and 0300, testing of aircraft engines is permissible at ground idle power only. Settings above this, however brief, are not allowed.

OBBI AD 2.22 FLIGHT PROCEDURES

Low Visibility Procedures Applicable to ILS CAT II operations at Bahrain International Airport

2.22.1. Authorization

All Air operators may conduct Low Visibility Operations (take-off, CAT II approaches and landings) if they are legally authorized-approved by their own aeronautical authority of the state of registration. Aerodrome Information concerning surface wind and RVR is immediately provided by ATC and significant changes will be reported in accordance with the provisions of PANS - ATM (DOC 4444). LVP operations for arrivals and departures are limited to the main runway at Bahrain International Airport:

RWY 30R ILS CAT II

RWY 12L ILS CAT II

Any changes in the operational status or the facilities will be promulgated by NOTAM and/or pilots will be advised accordingly by ATIS or on initial contact with ATC.

Low Visibility Procedures (LVP) shall be declared at Bahrain International Airport whenever the RVR reading is 1000M or less, or whenever conditions are such that all of the maneuvering area is not visible from the control tower. The procedures will ensure protection of the ILS sensitive and critical areas to ILS CAT II limits, provide an effective surface movement guidance and control system, and ensure a safe CAT II operations environment. LVP procedures will not normally be introduced for aircraft carrying out practice CAT II approaches.

2.22.1.2 Aerodrome Operating Minima

A- Arrival RWY 12L / 30R LVP Minima

-LVP shall be in force

-No aircraft shall be permitted to make an approach to land when the RVR is less than 350 meters.

B- Departure RWY 12L / 30R LVP Minima

-LVP shall be in force -No aircraft departure is permitted when the RVR is less than 350 meters.

2.22.1.3 Runway Utilization

To ensure the maximum runway utilization during LVP operations, the runway shall not be used as a taxi/towing route except for aircraft required to exit the runway. The runway shall not be used to cross from taxiways B1 and B2; pilots are expected to comply with the following operational procedures:

A- Departures

RWY 30R

RWY holding position H shall be used for departure. Intersection departures are not authorized during LVP.
On receipt of take-off clearance, pilots should ensure that they are able to commence take-off without delay.

While on the apron including pushback operations:

Enter the discrete SSR code received from Clearance Delivery/TWR.
Enter the three letter ICAO designator followed by the flight number (e.g.GFA123) through the FMS or the Transponder.
ATC will verify the data and use it for identification.

B- Arrivals

2.22.2 RNAV GNSS APPROACH

GNSS approach is part of the GPS service and is established at Bahrain, therefore, acquisition of such service could only be done by means of flying towards a number of way points which are prevailed along the approach phases within BAHRAIN TMA after which it will guide an aircraft to the final approach of the landing RWY, such procedure may only be flown using significant position co - ordinates that are stored in the aircraft‘s navigational data base.

OBBI AD 2.23 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

2.23.1 Minimization of time of the RUNWAY

A number of recent incidents have led to a reduction in the minimum requirement for runway separation between arriving and departing aircraft. The factors causing these incidents have been found to be:

Arriving aircraft delay to vacate the runway after landing and / or stop before the entire aircraft has vacated the runway.
Departing aircraft, having reported “ready” and been cleared for takeoff, delay on the runway before commencing takeoff roll.

Factors ATC considers:

IFR separation on final approach course may reduce to 3NM. This reduced separation minima enhances airspace efficiency and runway utilization.
For the purposes of issuing a takeoff or landing clearance to subsequent aircraft, a preceding aircraft is not considered to be clear of the runway until the arriving aircraft is completely clear of the runway or the departing is airborne.
in the order to achieve the maximum runway utilization, it is essential that landing aircraft vacate the runway without delay; and that the departing aircraft, once cleared for takeoff, commence takeoff roll without delay.
in the event of arriving or departing aircraft delaying on the runway, it may become necessary for the subsequent departing aircraft’s takeoff clearance to be delayed; or for the subsequent arriving aircraft to be instructed to go around. Incidents of this nature have serious safety implication for all operators.

Pilots are, therefore, reminded of their responsibilities.

Arriving Aircraft

Plan their runway exit point prior to landing, it is preferred that aircraft landing Runway 12L vacate via taxiway A6, A7 or before; and that aircraft landing Runway 30R vacate via taxiway ’A4’ or before. Advise ATC as soon as practicable if unable to exit the runway as instructed.
Do not stop or reduce speed to less than required taxi speed prior to vacating the Runway completely.
Vacate the Runway expeditiously.

Departing Aircraft

Report “ready” only when ready for immediate takeoff.
Once cleared for takeoff, commence takeoff roll with minimum delay.
All departing aircraft contact BAHRAIN DELIVERY on 121.900 MHZ for IFR enroute clearance or VFR departure instructions.
