RIU 04R/04L - TWRs
EKCH_A_TWR
- Familiarize yourself with Missed Approach procedure for the correct RWY!
- If getting RED conflicts, but it is clear the preceding will vacate before trailing touches down you are OK to continue. Issue TFC information with landing clearance
Standard missed approach procedure MUST be given ALWAYS unless coordinated otherwise.
Missed approach 04L
Left heading 347, climb 3000’
Handover to EKCH_W_APP 119.805
Missed approach should be announced as:
“Follow Standard Missed Approach procedure, Climb 3000”
Or if the pilot is struggling:
"GO AROUND! Left turn NOW heading 347 climb 3000 ft."
You should issue a Go- Around IF
- Separation is LESS than 2NM (Yellow Conflict sticker) while both aircraft are still on the ILS
- Aircraft will touch down before the preceding has vacated.
Only give Go Around if needed. Every go around is a big strain on APP/F_APP.
Correlation with EKCH_C_TWR
BE AWARE of this to ease congestion and workload for the next controller

Note that
- You can handover to EKCH_A_GND directly for traffic via A and F if coordinated and agreed to by EKCH_C_TWR
- You must handover before reaching de-icing platform for traffic to EKCH_C_TWR
If airplanes vacate E3/E2 by mistake, either:
- Hand over to EKCH_D_TWR or taxi down B after coordination, only if traffic allows
- Turn via B to E3/E2 and cross the arrival runway again if taxiing via B is not an option.
EKCH_D_TWR
- See Wake Turbulence and Route separation below
- Check scenarios for PROP before JET
- Preceding MUST be past the Threshold before the next DEP CLR is given
EKCH_C_TWR
ONLY use standard taxi routes unless coordinated with EKCH_A_GND
- K2+K3 are STANDARD for inbounds to A4-A34 (Not including A11-A15).
- DO NOT ask before using
- DO NOT accept wrong taxiways. Vacating B5 or missing C should still taxi up the runway for K3/K2 if needed. DO NOT overcrowd EKCH_A_GND
Coordinate as needed and desired with the two towers
As aircraft crosses Runway 30, they should as good as you can be separated into South vs. North departures
Assign a holding point for each aircraft to make TWR’s task easier.
- All WTC/H must use B1
- a WTC/M and smaller may use B3
- B4 only to be used upon pilot approval
- Use holding points to sequence traffic in north/south configuration.
