Arriving aircraft will be allocated a stand number by the TWR.

Ground services can be requested from TBILISI APRON on FREQ 131.700 MHZ.

Assistance from the "FOLLOW ME" vehicle can be:

  • requested via the TWR;
  • available when visibility is less then 400 M;
  • available during night time for C, D and E categories aircraft.

Isolated aircraft stand is located on the TWY E and has the following coordinates: 413947.65N 0445747.13E .

Aircraft engine testing area is located on the TWY E and has the following coordinates: 413947.65N 0445747.13E. Movement to be performed by towing only.

For apron 4 assistance from the "FOLLOW ME" vehicle is required for all categories aircraft.

Departing IFR and VFR flights shall contact TWR to obtain ATC clearance before commencing taxiing. Request for ATC clearance may take place at earliest 10 minutes prior to engine start–up.

After pre–flight preparation, decision to take–off and receiving of ATC clearance for the flight, the pilot–in–command of an aircraft makes a decision whether or not to take off from the aerodrome, fly along the airway and land at the destination aerodrome, and is entirely responsible for the decision taken.

Engine start–up and taxiing shall be carried out by the pilot–in–command only after clearance from the appropriate ATC unit. Taxiing on the aerodrome maneuvering area shall be conducted in accordance with taxi procedures or as directed by the ATC unit. The pilot–in–command is responsible for meeting the norms established for taxiing with this type of aircraft.

While taxiing, the pilot–in–command shall be observing the area in front of him and take measures to avoid collisions with aircraft, motor vehicles and other obstacles. The pilot-in-command may not enter or cross any runway without clearance from the appropriate tower controller.

Taxiing from the holding position to the line–up and take–off shall be performed only after clearance from the tower controller.

The pilot–in–command shall take off within one minute after receiving the clearance from the ATC unit. If a take-off has not been carried out within the above mentioned time interval, the pilot–in–command shall request a new clearance.

TWY B, Apron TWY C and TWY E are used for maneuvering of any type of aircraft.

Aircraft are allowed to make 180 degree turn at the intersection place of RWY 13L/31R and TWY E with coordinates 413947.65N 0445747.13E.

On RWY 13R/31L only aircraft with code "C" or lower are allowed to make 180 degrees turn.

3  Apron during winter conditions

The aircraft parking stands 100- 111; 112-122 are allocated for de-icing treatment of aircraft.

4  Regulations for helicopters

Take-off and landing for all types of helicopters are allowed only from/to RWY 13R/31L.

Parking stand 33 is allocated for helicopters with the largest overall dimension (D) not exceeding 15.72 M.

Taxiing to/from stand 33 is prohibited during nighttime and/or runway visual range less than 400 M.

After entering stand 33 helicopter shall perform 180 degrees turn in a hover due to park in a correct position.

5  Taxiing – limitations

Taxiing from aircraft stands 1, 8 is performed by towing only except for aircraft not exceeding the type B code.

Taxiing from aircraft stands 5C, 7C is allowed at a low thrust.

TWY A is used for manoeuvering aircraft with code C or less.

The washing area for aircraft is located on the Aircraft Parking stands 105- 111; 117-122.

Only at apron taxiway C max taxi speed is 15 kt.

6  Removal of disabled aircraft from runway

When an aircraft is wrecked on a runway, it is the duty of the owner or user of such aircraft to have it removed as soon as possible. If a wrecked aircraft is not removed from the runway as quickly as possible by the owner or user, the aircraft will be removed by the aerodrome authority at the owner's or user's expense.

   UGTB AD 2.21 Noise abatement procedures

Noise abatement procedures are published on the Standard Instrument Departure (SID) charts.

   UGTB AD 2.22 Flight procedures

1  Procedures for IFR flights within Tbilisi TMA
1.1  General

ATS surveillance service within Tbilisi TMA is provided by Tbilisi approach unit (call sign "Tbilisi approach") on frequency 134.6 MHZ (or 127.2 MHZ).

Horizontal separation minimum applicable within Tbilisi TMA is 5 NM.

Tbilisi ATIS information is available on frequency 132.8 MHZ.

1.2  Procedures for arrival flights

Arrival flight capable of RNAV1 (GNSS) will normally be cleared to follow appropriate RNAV STAR or will be given direct routings to the waypoints designated as initial approach fix or intermediate fix of the ILS z (or LOC z) instrument approach procedures. Loss of RNAV1 (GNSS) capability shall be immediately reported to ATC and vectoring for final approach should be expected.

Arrival flights not capable of RNAV1 (GNSS) will normally be vectored for final approach. Alternatively, direct routing to TBS (IAF) may be given, followed by ILS y (or LOC y or VOR) instrument approach procedures. If a flight not capable of RNAV1 (GNSS) receives clearance to follow RNAV STAR or to proceed direct to a waypoint associated with ILS z (or LOC z) instrument approach procedures, the clearance shall be rejected and the reason stated: “UNABLE RNAV1 (GNSS)”.

Published speed restrictions on STARs and instrument approach procedures shall always be complied with. Controllers are not allowed to cancel published speed restrictions.

1.3  Procedures for departing flights

Departing flights capable of RNAV1 (GNSS) will normally be cleared to follow appropriate RNAV SID or conventional SID in accordance with the filed flight plan. Loss of RNAV1 (GNSS) capability shall be reported to ATC as soon as possible.

If a flight not capable of RNAV1 (GNSS) receives clearance to follow RNAV SID, the clearance shall be rejected and the reason stated: “UNABLE RNAV1 (GNSS)”.

When cleared level requires an ACFT to level-off on SID, ATC Surveillance Minimum Altitudes will be respected by controller.

As an alternative to any SID, controller may instruct to “CONTINUE RUNWAY HEADING” or “CLIMB STRAIGHT AHEAD”. In such cases climb gradient of 5.4 % or greater shall be maintained up to 7000 FT for departures from RWY 31L. Climb gradient of 3.9 % or greater shall be maintained up to 4500 FT for departure from RWY 13R.

Visual departures are not implemented.

   UGTB AD 2.23 Additional information

Intense activity of raven flocks takes place daily from 08:00 to 10:00 (local time) when birds fly from resting area (town) across the approach of RWY 31L to their feeding area, NW of the airport. Their flight height varies from 100 FT (30 M) to 165 FT (50 M) AGL. From 16:00 to 19:00 (local time) the same activity as described above takes place in reverse when the birds return to their resting area.

Because of the permanent character of the bird activity in the vicinity of the airport, pilots are informed of the fact and the estimated heights (AGL), continually by ATIS.

During the above periods pilots of aircraft are advised, where the design limitations of aircraft installations permit, to operate landing lights in flight, during take-off, approach-to-land and climb and descent procedures.

Dispersal activities include occasional playing back of distressed calls from high fidelity weather-resistant speakers, high shooting sound produced of liquid gas cannons and the visual repellents (hunter dummies) allocated near the RWY 13R/31L. Also modifications of the airport environment are under way to reduce, if not eliminate, the wildlife hazard. No landfills in the vicinity and no open waste-bins on the aerodrome. Ground and grass cover is treated properly. No farming activity in the vicinity.
