37.  Local aerodrome regulations

The traffic circuit can be flown only in the eastbound direction from the airport.
Departure and arrival at the airport must be made in line with the corresponding point on the traffic circuit.
Arrivals and departures may be flown from / into the traffic circuit in a northerly, westerly, easterly or southerly direction.
The traffic circuit to be flown at Hertelendy Airport is shown in map form in horizontal plan view in the maps in Chapter 3 of the Airport Regulations.

The definition of the airport traffic circuit, in text form, is as follows:

Take-off

Take-off shall commenced with a steady acceleration and climb from the southern end of the runway in accordance with the prevailing wind direction (N). The climb shall be continuous in a straight line on a heading of 351° and shall continue until the start of the crosswind turn.

Crosswind turn

The crosswind turn is always right-hand turn. The start of the turn must not be below 100 m altitude. The turn is normally ascending. The turn should preferably be initiated and completed at a distance of approximately 2100 m from the ARP. The radius of the turn is approximately 300 m.

Downwind

The downwind starts at the end of the crosswind leg, has an altitude of 300 m and an orientation of 171°. Its location is defined east of the runway axis, at a distance of about 1600m from the runway axis, parallel to the runway. Cruise power recommended on the downwind (except in an emergency). The downwind lasts until the base turn.

Base turn

The base turn is also righ-hand turn. The turn must be started at the height of the downwind (300 m altitude). If necessary (meteorological conditions, aircraft conditions, etc.), descent can be started during the turn. The radius of the turn is approximately 300m.

Base leg

The start of the base leg is the third turn, its altitude depending on the positioning for landing, and it consists of either a continuous descent or a horizontal and descent phase. The line of the base leg is 2200m south of the ARP, bearing 261°. The base leg continues until the the final turn.

Final turn

This right-hand turn must be made with a continuous descent. The position of the final turn is determined by the base leg and the runway centre line. The direction of the final shall coincide with the axis of the runway. The turn shall be executed in such a way that its completion is preferably at a height of 100m. The radius of the turn is approximately 300m.

Landing

The landing is from the final turn until the roll-out after touchdown.

Depending on the meteorological situation, the location of the traffic circuit shown on the map and described above may differ slightly from the school circuit shown and described.
Depending on the meteorological conditions in the area, the route of the traffic circuit in the case of opposite winds shall be the same as the route of the traffic circuit described above. In this case, of course, the take-off and landing directions are reversed and the direction of turns is always left. Therefore, even in the case of a take-off in the opposite direction, the flight can only be performed in the direction east of the runway.
Arriving or departing traffic from the aerodrome must join this traffic circuit during take-off and landing operations.
For more information, see the Airport Rules.

38.  Noise abatement procedures

Noise abatement procedures are designed to reduce the impact of aircraft noise at the airport and in populated areas affected by take-off and landing operations
- In order to protect and reduce noise in residential areas, powered and non-powered aircraft may fly local flight paths as described in this document
- Motorized aircraft are permitted to fly over built-up residential and recreational areas below 1000 FT AGL only when conducting landing and take-off procedures, except for emergency procedures
- During the flight of the traffic circle and during the route of aircraft arriving at and departing from the airport, the territory of the municipality of Böhönye must be avoided
- In the airspace above the airport, aerobatics may be carried out with an aircraft equipped with an engine only for the purpose of official and technical landing or other aeronautical events.
- Restriction of operations after sunset: During the period after sunset, but not later than 22:00 hours, the planning of operations is limited and may be carried out up to 2 days per week
- No flights may be planned during the deep sleep period
- Demonstration flights and technical landings may not be planned or carried out between 22:00 and 06:00 on working days; between 20:00 and 07:00 on public holidays
- Pursuant to Article 12(5) of Joint Decree 18/1997 (X. 11.) KHVM-KTM, the following procedures shall apply in order to reduce the noise impact of ground operations:
Engine idling, the operation of auxiliary power units, the operation of the various filling aggregators and engine tests required after maintenance must be carried out only during the opening hours of the airport. This period shall be from 06:00 to 22:00 on working days and from 07:00 to 20:00 on public holidays. The engine test and idling period shall not exceed 10 minutes.
Outside these periods, i.e. between 22:00 and 06:00 on working days and between 20:00 and 07:00 on public holidays, these types of activities are not permitted in order to reduce noise pollution.
Compliance with noise reduction procedures is not mandatory in the following cases:
- aircraft operations such as emergency humanitarian or emergency search and rescue operations, medical assistance, patient transport and aircraft operated for disaster relief purposes
- aircraft engaged in State operations, including military, customs, police, fire, law enforcement or national security operations, the restrictions shall not apply in the exceptional case where compliance with them would, in the circumstances, jeopardise the safety of flight. The justification for safety must be justified by the party invoking it in all cases where the aircraft is in an emergency situation

40.  Additional information

RWY 35 threshold has been displaced 100m to the north due to obstacle clearance, therefore the landing disctance available (LDA) of RWY 35 is 590m long.
