Manual (Doc 9830).

Note: - 2. The PANS-Aerodromes (Doc 9981) contains clarifications on the


scope of a significant change in the runway surface conditions.

Personnel assessing and reporting runway surface conditions required in 5.1.5.2


and 5.1.7.1 shall be trained and competent to meet criteria set by CAAP.

Note: - Guidance on criteria is included in the Airport Services Manual (Doc


9137), Part 8, Chapter 7.

Obstacle Data

Standards for obstacle identification, restriction and limitation are detailed in


MOS 7. It also provide details of and responsibilities for Aerodrome Obstacle
Charts applicable to the aerodrome.

Runway surface condition(s) for use in the runway condition report

Introductory Note: - The philosophy of the runway condition report is that the
aerodrome operator assesses the runway surface conditions whenever water is
present on an operational runway. From this assessment, a runway condition
code (RWYCC) and a description of the runway surface are reported which can
be used by the flight crew for aeroplane performance calculations. This report,
based on the type, depth and coverage of contaminants, is the best assessment
of the runway surface condition by the aerodrome operator; however, all other
pertinent information may be taken into consideration. The PANS-Aerodromes
(Doc 9981) contains procedures on the use of the runway condition report and
assignment of the RWYCC in accordance with the runway condition assessment
matrix (RCAM). See also MOS Attachment A Section 3.

The runway surface condition shall be assessed and reported through a runway
condition code (RWYCC) and a description using the following terms:

DRY
STANDING WATER
WET

Note: - 1. The runway surface conditions are those conditions for which, by
means of the methods described in the PANS-Aerodromes (Doc 9981), the flight
crew can derive appropriate aeroplane performance.
Note: - 2. The conditions, either single or in combination with other observations,
are criteria for which the effect on aeroplane performance is sufficiently
deterministic to allow assignment of a specific runway condition code.
Whenever an operational runway is contaminated, an assessment of the
contaminant depth and coverage over each third of the runway shall be made
and reported.

Note: - See MOS Attachment A Section 20.

Information that a runway or portion thereof is slippery wet shall be made
