1. RUNWAY USE, FOR TURBOJET AIRCRAFT, IN ORDER OF PRIORITY FROM 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 Midnight.

            a.         South Operation—Arrive 19L/19R

                        (1)        Depart 19R      (2)        Depart 19L

            b.         North Operation—Depart 1L/1R

                        (1)        Arrive 1L         (2)        Arrive 1R

            c.         East/West Operation—Arrive/Depart 10/28

2. RUNWAY USE PRIORITY FROM 12:00 Midnight to 6:00 a.m.

When traffic, wind, weather, and field conditions permit, and no reportable delays to arrivals or departures will result, Tower will use Runway 19R for turbojet departures and Runway 1L for turbojet arrivals. If conditions do not permit, runways will be assigned, as defined in Paragraph 1, for turbojet aircraft.

3. TO PREVENT OVER-FLIGHT OF RESIDENTIAL AREAS IN THE INTERBAY AREA (PENINSULA SOUTH OF RUNWAY 1L/1R) ON A NORTH OPERATION: Turbojets will be vectored on base legs south of MacDill’s Runway 4, unless wind, weather, field and traffic conditions do not permit.

4. OPERATIONAL SAFETY CRITERIA. When possible, Tower will assign runways based on the Runway Use Priorities stated above and will apply the following criteria:

                 a. There should be no significant windshear or thunderstorms affecting the use of an assigned runway.

                 b. A runway of lower use priority may be assigned as follows:

                       (1)  For landing, when the reported visibility is less than one statute mile, or the runway visual range for the higher priority is less than 5,000 feet.

                       (2) When braking action is reported less than good, or if reports are received of hydroplaning or unusually slippery runway surfaces.

                 c.  Maximum Crosswind Component (including Gust Values)—Tailwind Component.

                       (1) Clear and dry runway, 20 KTS crosswind – 5 KTS tailwind.

                       (2) Runways not clear and dry, 15KTS crosswind – No tailwind; except for the nominal range of wind, reported as calm (less than 3 KTS).

5. INITIAL DEPARTURE TRACKS FOR TURBOJET AIRCRAFT.Headings will be assigned to insure aircraft remain on the designatedtracks. Do not expect turns from initial headings until the aircraft has reached 3,000 feet, unless operationally required.    

                      (a)    Runways 1L or 1R – track 360.

                      (b)   Runway 19R – track 200.

                      (c)    Runway 19L – track 210.

                      (d)   Runway 28 – track 280.

                      (e)    Runway 10 – track 100.

6. INITIAL DEPARTURE TRACKS FOR TURBOPROP AIRCRAFT FROM 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Unless operationally required, turboprop aircraft departing Runway 1L/1R will not be permitted to turn more than 20 degrees left from the runway heading until the aircraft has reached 3 NM.

7. CORPORATE TURBOJET DEPARTURES ON RUNWAY 19L:Corporate turbojet departures will be permitted to depart Runway 19L when assigned headings are issued insuring departure tracks emulate Runway 19R departures.

8. CORPORATE TURBOJET ARRIVALS ON RUNWAY 01R:  During construction and closure of the Taxiway Juliet Bridge, corporate aircraft should expect to land runway 01R when the airport is in a north operation.
