The Notice files on these pages are current as of the revision date shown on each page. Always consult all available published Notice information and ask for other pertinent Notices prior to flight.

GENERAL
The purpose of this bulletin is to convey to our valued customers our current policy regarding the applications of
chart and database changes based on state issued NOTAMs. The following is a summary of that policy and is
specific to the processing of state issued NOTAMs only.

BACKGROUND
The “Notice to Airmen” (NOTAM) has been an integral part of the system for disseminating critical aeronautical
information world wide for a very long time. Typically, NOTAMs publicize aeronautical information that is timecritical
as well as temporary in nature. NOTAMs are also used when the information is not known sufficiently in
advance to allow for chart publication and/or database extraction.

NOTAMs communicate aeronautical information that has a direct impact on a pilot’s flight preparation. It is for
this reason that all pilots are required by regulation to review all available NOTAMs applicable to their particular
flight. The following policy regarding the application of NOTAM information to Jeppesen products is based on
that fundamental principal.

NOTAM POLICY
All Permanent or “P” NOTAMs are analyzed when received and applied to the Jeppesen charts and/or database
as appropriate, based on normal Jeppesen workflow and process criteria.

Temporary NOTAMs published without an active duration, or those published with an active duration of 90 days
or less, are not analyzed for possible application due to their short life span and volatility. It would be part of a
pilot’s normal flight preparation to familiarize themselves with this type of NOTAM.

Temporary NOTAMs published with an active duration of more than 90 days will be analyzed and may be applied
to the charts and/or database after considering its complexity as well as other factors. Not all temporary NOTAMs
with an active duration of more than 90 days are applied to the charts and/or database. The decision regarding
when to apply a temporary NOTAM to the charts and/or database is based on a wide range of factors, and is
done on a case by case basis. Again, based on a normal pre flight process, pilots would access these NOTAMs
prior to flight.

NOTE: Jeppesen scans all Temporary NOTAMs upon receipt to assess a basic level of impact. Special consideration
is given to Temporary NOTAMs that have a direct effect on permanent source documents.

We continue striving to supply you, our valued customers, with highly accurate, on time flight information. The
above policy helps us meet that lofty goal. We look forward to fulfilling your aeronautical charting and database
needs now and in the future.

AERODROME OPERATING MINIMUMS ACCORDING TO EU-OPS 1

General Information

The European Union published the 2nd Amendment of EU-OPS 1 (Annex III to Regulation 3922/91).

http://eur-lex.europa.eu/JOIndex.do?ihmlang=en

This EU-OPS 1 is the replacement of JAR-OPS 1 and contains a new method to determine Aerodrome Operating
Minimums (AOM). The new method will become the European Standard on 16 July 2011 at the latest.

According to ICAO Doc 9365-AN910 (Manual of All Weather Operations) and Annex 6 to the Convention on
International Civil Aviation it is the operator’s responsibility to establish Aerodrome Operating Minimums which
need to be approved by the responsible authority.

The Appendix 1 (new) to OPS 1.430 describes the method which has to be used by all European Operators and
within the European Union (EU).

Jeppesen will support your operations by replacing the current JAR-OPS AOM with the new Standard. Due to
the huge number of airports (1000+) and procedures (5000+) the conversion could only be done on a step by
step basis.

It is our intent to have all procedures revised to the new Standard AOM by 16 July 2011 for all airports within
– European Union member states,
– European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) member states,
– Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) member states and
– for other states where the currently used JAR-OPS AOM will be replaced.
In May 2008 we asked commercial operators about their plans for this EU-OPS implementation. The following
items are directly related to the results of that survey:
a. All non-precision approaches will be reviewed to show CDFA (Continuous Descent Final Approach) profile
and minimums.
b. In case of CDFA only, a DA(H) is shown instead of the previously published MDA(H). The missed approach
point is still shown according to state source but the missed approach initiation arrow is moved to the point
where the DA(H) is reached.
c. Jeppesen charted AOM do not include an add-on when current MDA(H) is replaced by DA(H). Pilots are
reminded to check their operator’s Flight Operations Manual or similar documents whether they have to
apply an add-on or not.
d. For CDFA profiles, Jeppesen will show DME vs altitude bands, distance vs altitude bands or timing vs
altitude tables. If not provided by the State source those altitudes will be calculated by Jeppesen.
e. Non-CDFA profiles and minimums will be shown in exceptional cases only and may be combined with CDFA
profiles and minimums.
f. For CAT I operations with full approach light system (FALS) Jeppesen will include RVR values below 750m
together with the higher values. Pilots are reminded to check their operator’s Flight Operations Manual or
similar documents to fulfill the requirements for using the lower RVR values.
g. Lower than standard CAT I minimums are charted on request on customer tailored charts.
h. Other than standard CAT II minimums will be charted if the procedure is approved for such operations by
the state of the airport.
i. Circling minimums must not be lower than the minimums of preceding instrument approach procedure. If
circling MDA(H) and/or visibility must be raised due to higher straight-in values, only one set of circling
minimums is shown which relates to the highest straight-in minimums.

Legend and ATC Pages

Jeppesen is currently reviewing the final version of this EU-OPS to replace the current ATC-601 (JAA AOM)
pages with a summarization of the new EU-OPS Aerodrome Operating Minimums.

In addition we will update the current Introduction 171 – 173 (JAR-OPS 1 AOM) pages to explain how the new
minimums and the CDFA profiles are depicted on Jeppesen charts.

Conversion Plan

The publication of the new Standard of AOM will be done along with normal chart revision activity. It is planned
to convert all procedures of an affected airport at the same time.

We will create special minimums pages, numbered 10-9S (similar to current 10-9X JAR-OPS pages), as an
interim solution.

Jeppesen will maintain or create JAR-OPS 1 minimums pages on customer request only.

Please contact your Jeppesen customer service representative for any special requirements, such as airline
tailored minimums, airborne equipment considerations or your conversion priorities.

Charts with JAR-OPS label

The JAR-OPS label on Jeppesen approach and airport charts indicates that the minimums correspond to the
rules described in Appendix 1 (old) to OPS 1.430 of the EU-OPS 1.

Future Outlook

The FAA will also publish new minimums which will be harmonized with the EU ones.

Jeppesen’s intention is to replace the current ECOMS and JAR-OPS Aerodrome Operating Minimums with the
future harmonized version on a world-wide basis.
