Signals and Landing Procedures
- In case of radio failure in the traffic pattern, an aircraft should signal difficulties by switching on and off the landing lights.
- A flashing red light from the control tower indicates the airport is unsafe, and landing should not occur.

- Aircraft intercepted by another must set transponder to Mode A, code 7700 unless instructed otherwise.
Ground Signals
- "Raise arm and hand, fingers extended" signals the aircraft to start engines.
- Taxiway edge lights are fixed and show blue color, while runway edge lights typically show white.
Flight Planning & Reporting

- A circling approach is a visual flight maneuver that maintains the runway in sight and is not dependent on radar vectoring.
- Visual manoeuvring (circling) refers to the phase of flight after completing an instrument approach to position for landing.
Miscellaneous
- White lines drawn across a runway indicate the threshold, while runway threshold lights usually show green.
- When conducting IFR to VFR transitions, it’s generally up to the aircraft commander’s discretion based on the conditions.### Instrument Approach and Missed Approach Procedures
- If visual reference is lost during a circling approach, initiate a climbing turn toward the landing runway and follow missed approach procedures.

- For distance separation using DME, the minimum is set at 10 nm, or 20 nm when speed differentials exceed 20 knots.
Holding Patterns and Flight Levels
- Standard holding patterns below 14,000 ft involve right-hand turns with a leg length of 1 minute outbound.
