For each flight entering the airspace of the charging zones listed at Annex 1, a single charge (R) shall be collected equal to the sum of the charges accruing in respect of that flight in in the airspace of tha charging zones concerned:
R = Σ�n ri
The individual charge (ri) for flights in a charging zone (i) shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of Article 3.
The charge for a flight in the airspace of the Flight Information Regions falling within the competence of a given Contracting State (i) shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula:
ri = ti x Ni
where ri is the charge, ti the unit rate of charge and Ni the number of service units corresponding to such a flight. The unit rates may, where appropriate, be set separately for VFR and IFR flights.
For a given flight, the number of service units, designated Ni, referred to in the foregoing Article shall be obtained by means of the following formula:
Ni = di x p
where di is the distance factor in respect of the airspace of the Flight Information Regions falling within the competence of the Contracting State (i) and p the weight factor for the aircraft concerned.
The aforesaid entry and exit points shall be the points at which the lateral limits of the said charging zone are crossed by the route described in the flight plan. This flight plan incorporates any changes made by the operator to the flight plan initially filed as well as any changes approved by the operator resulting from air traffic flow management measures.
For flights terminating at the aerodrome from which the aircraft has taken off and during which no intermediate landing has been made (circular flights), article 5.1 is applicable, except in the following two cases:
P=√(Maximum Take-off Weight: 50)
Where the maximum certificated take-off weight of the aircraft is not known to the bodies responsible for the collection of the charge, the weight factor shall be calculated by taking the weight of the heaviest aircraft of the same type known to exist.
The charge shall be payable at EURCONTROL's Headquarters, in accordance with the conditions of payment set out in Annex 2. The currency of account used shall be the EUR.
The Conditions of Application of the Route Charges System, the unit rates shall be published by the Contracting States.
