ITP/AGA/OLS/071EN
ICAO Course

Goal

This course will allow regulators, aerodrome operators, flight procedure designers, town planners and other stakeholders to develop the competencies to comply with the updated provisions related to obstacle limitation surfaces in accordance with Annex 14, Vol 1 and PANS-Aerodromes (Doc 9981).


Learning Objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Identify the changes in the OLS concept
  • Identify the implications of aircraft performance in OLS
  • Evaluate the requirements of specific surfaces in aerodromes
  • Carry out obstacle evaluation and control through an aeronautical study

Structure
