Digital barometer is in the AWOS room. H24 tables AVBL Surface wind is measured by optoelectronic anemometers and wind wanes located at the both ends of the runway near THR at the height of 10 M above the ground. EYKA wind sensors are the cup anemometers, EYVI, EYPA, EYSA the ultrasonic, the indicators of which are located in meteorological services, in the appropriate air traffic services, in briefing office and in the aerodrome office. Prevailing visibility is measured by AWOS or, if necessary, may be determined by using relevant visibility marker charts from the weather observation workstations. RVR is measured by transmissometres. At EYVI, EYKA, EYSA aerodromes the transmissometres are located near THR at the both ends of the RWY and at the middle point or the RWY, at EYPA aerodrome near THR at the both ends of the RWY. RVR is reported when/or the visibility or RVR is less than 1500 M. The transmissometres values are transformed to RVR by using the information of background luminance and runway light intensity. The ceilometers are used at all aerodromes to determine the height of the cloud base. They are installed at ILS MM at the both ends of the RWY. Air temperature and air humidity (from which the dew point temperature is calculated) at EYKA are measured by sensors placed in a
4 GEN radiation protection 2 M above the ground in the meteorological garden, at EYVI, EYPA, EYSA on the masts of wind sensors at the both ends of the RWY. RWY surface temperature, water film height and freezing points are measured by the road sensors. The RWY sensors at EYSA are located at the both ends of the RWY TYPES OF SERVICES At EYVI and EYPA aerodromes crew members and/or other flight-related staff shall be consulted on request. At EYKA aerodrome consultations are provided only by phone by the Aeronautical Meteorological Centre established at EYVI aerodrome. Flight documents are provided to international and, when necessary, to local flights. Flight documents include: a chart of significant meteorological phenomena, a chart of upper wind and upper air temperatures and reports and weather forecasts of the departure, destination and alternate aerodromes; SIG and AIR information for low level flights. Note: At the request of EYSA, EYKA, EYPA the required flight documents shall be sent by fax or from EYVI. Forecasts for general aviation (IFR and VFR) low-level flights shall be prepared in a GA format in abbreviated plain language and shall cover information for traffic below FL100. GA forecasts shall be prepared every 6 hours at daytime and other time under consumers agreement and shall be transmitted not later than 1 hour prior to the beginning of their validity period. GA forecasts consist of two sections: section 1 includes surface wind speed, ground visibility and phenomena worsening it, significant weather phenomena and clouds (cloud base above the ground), icing, turbulence, valid SIG information for Vilnius FIR; section 2 comprises pressure systems and forecasts of movement and development thereof, upper winds and upper air temperature, other clouds, not included into section 1, the icing level, the lowest forecasted QNH value, the sea level temperature and condition (height of waves), volcanic clouds. If necessary, corrections of GA forecasts are prepared and AIR information is published. GA forecasts shall be prepared for five areas, as shown in the table at the end of this chapter. Forecasts are available at all Lithuanian aerodromes NOTIFICATIONS REQUIRED FROM OPERATORS A flight organizer in need of meteorological services: consultations, flight documents or any other meteorological information, which is necessary for intercontinental flights over M shall notify the Aviation meteorological centre in advance (ICAO Annex 3, paragraph 2.3). Such a request shall be handed in not later than 6 hours before the planned flight In the case of a non-scheduled flight, the ATS reporting office or the Aviation meteorological centre shall be notified in advance as follows: a) for flights within Europe, not later than 3 hours before the time at which briefing, consultation and/or flight documentation are required; b) for flights outside Europe, not later than 12 hours before briefing, consultation and/or flight documentation are desired for flights outside Europe The notification about individual flights for the Aviation meteorological centre should contain the following information: a) departure aerodrome and estimated time of departure; b) destination and estimated time of arrival; c) flight route and cruising level; d) alternate aerodromes; e) type of flight (VFR or IFR); f) type of meteorological information necessary for a flight crew, either flight documentation and/or briefing or consultation; g) time for which briefing, consultation and/or flight documentation is required. When a flight is delayed, advanced or cancelled, the Aviation meteorological centre shall be notified by the operator or a flight crew member as soon as possible OBSERVATION S At any phase of the flight, aircraft crews, crossing Vilnius FIR, shall report to a corresponding ATS unit the following observations as soon as possible: a) special, when there is severe turbulence, severe icing, thunder; hail, squall. b) other (irregular), when there are such meteorological conditions (e.g. wind shear, light or moderate icing,
5 GEN moderate turbulence, ect.) which by the aircraft commander s, evaluation can affect the safety and effectiveness of other flights. If the metreports or warnings contain information about wind shear during take off or approach stages, when actually it does not exit, the commander of the aircraft shall report it to the ATS unit. Observations which have not been possible to report during the flight shall be reported as soon as practicable on arrival. The ATS unit always passes the observation data from the aircraft to the Aviation meteorological centre VOL SERVICE Not applicable SIG SERVICE Name of MWO Location Ind.
