### **2.1 ATC Clerance**

<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">When an aircraft calls for ATC Clearance, click on Destination / Stand to open the </span>***ATC CLEARANCE MENU*****,**<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> to read the clearance to the pilot.</span>

<span style="background-color: rgb(186, 55, 42);">\[GIF\]</span>

<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Once ATC Clearance is read back by the pilot click on </span>**CLD** to confirm the clearance. Aircraft is immediately moved from the associated “**PLANNED DEP**” bay to “**CLEARED**” bay.

### **2.2 Pre-Departure Clearance (PDC)**

Upon reception of a PDC, strip will blink for five seconds following by either:

- Moved to CLEARED bay if no errors detected. Strip will remain solid purple until pilot acknowledges the clearance.
- Maintained in PLANNED DEP bay highlighted in bright yellow, if one of the following conditions were sensed:
    - - - Error in FPL
            - Custom message inserted in remarks.

<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">In case of errors or remaks, open up the </span>***ATC CLEARANCE MENU***<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> and assign the clearance manually, by clicking </span>**CLD**<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">. If you are unable to provide a clearance to the pilot, click </span>**REVERT TO VOICE**<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> next to CLD. Either action will send the appropriate message to the pilot via PDC.</span>

***ATC CLEARANCE MENU***<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> features will be explained further down in section 2</span>

### **2.3 Completion of ATC Clearance**

Upon move to CLEARED bay, the SI field becomes apparent in an orange color. This is because the strip is already transferred to next controller.

As Delivery you must immediately hand over the aircraft to next frequency.

If EKCH\_DEL are responsible for START-UP in addition to normal responsibilities, the SEQ PLN scope shall be manually selected and controlled through there.

<p class="callout danger">**CDM and Startup approvals** <u>**CANNOT** </u>**be controlled from CLR DEL scope. EKCH\_DEL must be on SEQ PLN scope when in charge of CDM**</p>
