This report on UK business air travel is made up of two separate studies by the CAA. The first was published in May 2009 as UK Business Air Travel: Traffic Trends and Characteristics which examined how UK business traffic has changed by sector (long haul, short haul and domestic) between 1996 and 2007, and the characteristics of business passengers. It also looked at the expansion of the Business Aviation sector, which provides on-demand air services using small business aircraft, typically with fewer than 15 seats. The second was published in December 2010 as Flying on Business: a study of the UK business air travel market which further developed the analysis from the first study. It examined the drivers of UK business air travel and how they have been affected by the recent recession. It also looked at how companies manage their business travel, the changing role of travel management companies, how airlines compete for business travellers, and what may affect the demand for business air travel to and from the UK in the future. Because the two studies are largely complementary, they have been combined into a single document for ease of reference. The first study forms Part 1, and the second study forms Part 2.

The UK Radiotelephony Manual (CAP 413) aims to provide pilots, Air Traffic Services personnel and aerodrome drivers with a compendium of clear, concise, standard phraseology and associated guidance for radiotelephony communication in United Kingdom airspace.
There are in addition to CAP 413 the following supplements:
CAP 413 Supplements
CAP 413 Radiotelephony Supplement 1 - Quick Reference Guide for Commercial Air Transport pilots
CAP 413 Radiotelephony Supplement 2 - For Aerodrome drivers
CAP 413 Radiotelephony Supplement 3 - For General Aviation pilots

 

The Manual of Air Traffic Services contains procedures, instructions and information which are intended to form the basis of air traffic services within the United Kingdom.
It is published for the guidance of civil air traffic controllers and may also be of general interest to others associated with civil aviation.
Supplementary Instructions (SIs) to CAP 493 are periodically issued ahead of routine amendments to introduce an entirely new subject, a radical change to existing instructions or to re-emphasise an existing instruction. CAP 493 should be read in conjunction with current SIs.
Please note since the issue of Edition 4 Amendment 11 and the advanced copy of CAP 493, a correction has been made to reflect the removal of duplicate paragraphs after 12.6 contained in Section 3, Chapter 1, Page 11.

Certification and Approval Procedures for products first certificated by an Authority other than the CAA, for which UK Certification or Approval is required.

Certification and Approval Procedures for products, usually first certificated or approved by the CAA, for which the CAA has primary responsibility as the Authority of the state of manufacture.

This document specifies the requirements for the approval of ATC training organisations and Initial ATC training courses.

SI 2011/03, effective on 15 July 2011, promulgated a replacement for the Absolute Minima procedure. Operational feedback from the implementation of this procedure has highlighted that during fluctuating RVR conditions, the RT impact can become excessive. Consequently, the procedure has been refined to mitigate these effects.

The purpose of this SI is to promulgate enhanced CAP 493 (MATS Part 1) procedures pertaining to changes in the air traffic service (ATS) when aircraft are leaving controlled airspace.

A recent AIRPROX report has highlighted a varying understanding between ATS providers on the responsibilities for initiating tactical co-ordination when providing an aircraft with an Air Traffic Service Outside Controlled Airspace (ATSOCAS). Consequently, a review of this matter has been undertaken by the CAA's ATC Procedures Working Group.

CAP 747 now provides a single source of mandatory information for continuing airworthiness as issued by the CAA. Airworthiness Directives for Annex II aircraft published in CAP 476 are now included, those Airworthiness Directives issued by EASA have been removed and are available on the EASA website.
Paper copies of the entire document are available for purchase. In addition the amendment file can be purchased separately.

Note: This publication has been reloaded to correct Part C,Section 2, ILS 02.

CAP 670, Part C, Section 1 COM 02 'VHF Aeronautical Radio Stations' specifies requirements for main, standby and emergency radiotelephony equipment to be used for VHF communication with aircraft. This requires that communications appropriate to the service being provided are available, and also provides Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC). The COM 02 equipment configurations were identified and documented in the context of service level definitions, which pre-dated the implementation of the revised Air Traffic Services Outside Controlled Airspace (ATSOCAS). Therefore, there is a need to clarify how the minimum communication configurations are to be applied when providing ATSOCAS.

Edition 4 of CAP 764 is now published. It will be renewed bi-annually and is to be read in conjunction with the CAA wind Energy web pages.
