Simplified CDM Procedures (APP/CTR)
Starting CDM (All Controllers)
As the first thing when you log on you must activate CDM to use it
Write .cdm master EKCH to activate!
How to do controller change correctly
- The Old controller changes to Slave with command .cdm slave EKCH
- Once there are no master controllers, the new controlles gets the master "role" by writing .cdm master EKCH
Simplified CDM Procedures (Top-down by APP/CTR)
This part of CDM is known as the ATFCM
Simplified CDM procedures are done from departure list. Please know that:
- You are completely allowed to perform expanded CDM procedures if your capacity allows
- You MUST adhere to displayed CTOT for takeoff
- You may ignore TSATs without CTOTs, if workload is too heavy.
Reference Material
Press on the top of the TSAT column where it says TSAT! This orders the departure list after TSATs and makes it easier to manage
Actions for simplified CDM procedures are identical as expanded, but with more freedom
You departure list now features a TOBT, a TSAT and a CTOT.
TOBT shows the estimated time of departure filed by the pilot.
- TOBT: Is Light green when the time is valid but not yet within the window for startup.
- TOBT: Is Dark green when the time is within time for startup approval.
- TSAT: Is Light green when the time is valid but not yet within the window for startup.
- TSAT: Is Dark green when the time is within time for startup approval.
- TSAT: Is Yellow when the time is within 1 minute from expiring
- TSAT is blank if time is expired.
- CTOT: Is Green, Orange or Red depending on the type of restriction triggering the CTOT.
Procedures
Aircraft calls for ATC Clearance
If CTOT is present: Advise of CTOT. You MUST in this case adhere to the TSAT. Advise pilot about CTOT!
If no CTOT: No further action required at this stage
Aircraft calls for STARTUP/PUSHBACK
- Right click on TOBT to signal aircraft ready for startup.
if CTOT is present:
- Adhere to TSAT Displayed . If TSAT is not yet within startup window (Light green), pilot must wait.
- When TSAT is within startup window (Dark Green) (+/- 5min) Start-up can be approved.
if no CTOT is present
- Start and push can be approved, regardless of TSAT time
- Be aware that non-adherance to TSATs may result in longer waiting times at the runway.
