Aerodrome Manual
General
Part I: General
1.1 Purpose and scope
The Aerodrome Manual contains all relevant information on the airport, its facilities, services and equipment, as well
as its operational processes, procedures and organisational and management structure, including its Safety
Management System (SMS).
1.2 Legal foundations
The Aerodrome Manual documents all important information on the airport. The Aerodrome Manual in accordance
with Section 45a of the Ordinance Regulating Admission to Civil Aviation (LuftVZO) and the ICAO Aerodrome Manual
(referred to as Aerodrome Manual in the following) are fundamental components of certification. Components of the
certification process defined by the ICAO and stipulated in German aviation law are specified in detail in Section 6 of
the German Air Traffic Act (LuftVG) and Sections 43, 45 and 47 and 51-53 LuftVZO.
1.3 Conditions for use of Munich Airport
Flughafen Mnchen GmbH is subject to the general obligation to operate an airport properly and safely pursuant to
Section 45 (1) LuftVZO. However, in accordance with Section 45 (1) Sentence 3 LuftVZO and under the
administrative decision dated November 18, 1991, from the Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs and
Transportation, it was exempted from this obligation for all incoming and outbound aircraft flying by visual flight rules
and for all aircraft with a permissible maximum takeoff weight of up to 2,000 kg.
These aircraft may use Munich Airport only with the prior consent (PPR) of Flughafen Mnchen GmbH (FMG).
The following are excepted from this:
-
Rotorcraft;
Aircraft flights to provide assistance in emergencies and disasters;
Aircraft flights in search, rescue and police missions;
Landings due to the weather, technical reasons or other safety-related reasons.
All users of the airport, whether in aircraft, ground vehicles or on foot, are subject to the rules set out in the valid
version of the Airport Rules and Regulations drawn up by FMG and must comply with the instructions issued by the
airport operating company to ensure compliance with these rules. The Airport Rules and Regulations and approvals
and/or permission granted subject to it are not a substitute for the approvals and/or permission required pursuant to
other statutory provisions.
Insofar as the regulations and instructions apply to the operators of aircraft, they apply mutatis mutandis both to
owners of aircraft and persons using them, regardless of whether the latter are the operators or owners of these
aircraft, or to persons tasked with handling activities at the airport.
In accordance with Section 43 LuftVZO, the Airport Rules and Regulations must be approved by the Bavarian State
Ministry of Economic Affairs, Infrastructure, Transportation and Technology.
The Airport Rules and Regulations must be approved by the aviation authorities and are publically accessible on the
Internet portal of Flughafen Mnchen GmbH. They are also disseminated in accordance with the distribution list.
Pursuant to Section 43 (3) LuftVZO, the approving authority initiates publication of them.
1.4 Availability of the Aeronautical Information Service
The Aeronautical Information Service (AIS) is provided in accordance with the guidelines and recommendation of the
ICAO (Annex 11) and is subordinate to DFS.
Munich Airport has self-briefing areas, which are located in the General Aviation Terminal (GAT). These self-briefing
areas can be used to submit flight plans by means of an interactive terminal, as well as by phone or fax, and to
request aeronautical information.
A staffed central AIS department is located at Frankfurt Airport. It can be contacted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,
under the following telephone and fax numbers:
Tel.:
+49 69 78072 500

Aerodrome Manual
General
1.5 Documentation of aircraft movements

The Traffic Statistics Act (VerkStatG) governs the provision of data by airlines to the German Federal Statistical
Office. The registration office for this is the airport operating company. In agreement with the Federal Statistical
Office, FMG uses this data to collect payload data for billing and statistical purposes instead of a separate flight
regularity message. The flight data is compared with the movement data from the BSV (Basic Traffic System) and
checked for completeness.
The airport operator considers direct provisioning of flight plan and flight operations data, as well as data on
passengers and payloads, to be vital in ensuring it can discharge its duties to maintain orderly operation of the airport
in compliance with Section 45 LuftVZO and the Airport Rules and Regulations.
For more information, please refer to the Traffic Statistics Act dated December 17, 1999, as amended on February
20, 2004.
1.6 Obligations of the aerodrome operator
The legal obligations of Munich Airport are as defined in the approval granted on May 9, 1974, in the version of the
amended approval dated March 23, 2001, and the project approval dated July 8, 1979, in the version of the 97th
amended project approval dated May 5, 2011, and the applicable statutory provisions. In accordance with Section 45
LuftVZO, the airport operator is required to maintain the operational safety of the airport and has a duty to operate it
properly.

airport and has a duty to operate it properly. Under Section 41 LuftVZO, Flughafen Mnchen GmbH must report
intended constructional and operational extensions and modifications to the approving authority, the Bavarian State
Ministry for Economic Affairs, Infrastructure, Transportation and Technology (BStMWIVT), in good time. Publications
in the AIP are instigated by the Bavarian State Ministry for Economic Affairs, Infrastructure, Transportation and
Technology. Relevant AIP supplements are initiated at Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH (DFS) for publication at the
next possible time.
At Flughafen Mnchen GmbH, the Traffic Services/Traffic Management department is responsible for proper
updating of the publications of relevance under aviation law in the Air Transport Bulletin (NfL) and the Aeronautical
Information Publication (AIP).
4.2 Access to aerodrome movement areas and vehicular traffic
The statutory requirements relating to facility protection and airport security and compliance with all necessary duties
to maintain safety are implemented by internal procedural instructions.
The objective of these procedural instructions is to ensure safety and security in the airports operations, for example
by preventing unlawful intrusion and interference. In particular, access prevention measures, construction measures
and fencing and other types of enclosure are possible solutions.
They also govern the authorisation for persons, vehicles, equipment and animals to access the non-public area of the
airport campus.
Provisions on access to the airport campus by vehicle and pedestrians can be found in the Airport Rules and
Regulations and in the regulations for using the non-public area of Munich Airport.

4.3.3 Response to fatalities

In principle, fatalities must be reported to the on-duty Traffic Manager (tel. 111). If the fatality occurs during a flight,
Traffic Management is notified by DFS. Traffic Management informs the command centre of the airport fire brigade
and the airport police. If notification via radio communications is required in exceptional cases, it is carried out using
the code name Einsatz mit Patient Spezial (Special Mission with Patient).
If the fatality has an impact on an airline, Apron Control, Central Traffic Control or Terminal Services, they must be
notified.
The security service must be informed if cordoning-off measures are required. The on-duty doctor at the Airport
Medical Service conducts the autopsy.
The local police officer in charge decides whether the corpse is released or the criminal investigation department is
called in. The police establishes the personal data and informs relatives.
The details are governed in procedural regulations.
4.3.4 Care and support for passengers in unusual situations
The airport undertakes to provide passengers with suitable care and support in unusual situations and in the event of
significant delays. The following needs of travellers are specified in internal procedural instructions:
Constant publication/announcement of information on the delay
Provision of enough seating
Provision of medical care
Provision of catering
The procedure is applied:
After cancellation and in response to unusual delays of flights
If masses of passengers are stranded, for example

If the runways are blocked (due to the weather, Winter Services work, technical problems, etc.)
In the event of strikes
In the event of an aircraft accident
To passengers denied entry to the country
The decision to provide care and support for passengers by Terminal Services is taken by the on-duty Traffic
Manager. The on-duty Traffic Manager always takes decisions in close coordination with the responsible airline and
the Terminal Services shift leader. In addition to the terminals, other buildings/halls can be also be used to
accommodate passengers, depending on the situation.
4.3.5 Press and public relations work
Inquiries from press and media representatives on damaging events or other relevant incidents are received and
handled by the Press and Information department during office hours. A standby service has been established
outside office hours.
4.4 Rescue and fire-fighting services
All emergencies are reported to the fire brigades command centre (tel. 112). The fire brigades command centre
alerts and notifies other units in accordance with the alarm and response regulations. The emergency services and
Traffic Management are alerted from here. Traffic Management is responsible for informing other services and
divisions.
4.4.1 Munich Airport fire brigade
The fire brigade at Munich Airport has been recognised as a works fire brigade pursuant to the administrative
decision by Freising District Administrators Office. It consists of the fire stations North and South. Both fire stations
have the prescribed quantity of category 10 extinguishing agents; this quantity is based on the largest aircraft that
normally uses the aerodrome.
The stations are manned by two fire-fighting teams around the clock.

The airport fire brigade has staff who have been trained as paramedics.
4.5 Inspection of the aerodrome movement areas and obstacle limitation surfaces
The operational safety of the movement areas, obstacle limitation surfaces and the security zones of the airport
campus must be maintained. There are different safety standard requirements for the movement areas, obstacle
limitation surfaces and the security zones, depending on how the areas are used.
Regular inspection trips are part of the everyday operational process, but are also conducted specifically after
precautionary landings and rejected takeoffs, at the request of the DFS aerodrome control department or in response
to a pilots report. In addition, inspection trips are carried out in response to own findings if there is a visible need for
them.
The runways, taxiways and clearways are inspected as specified by Traffic Management. The inspections are usually
made every 4-5 hours. There is a particularly intensive inspection at the first light of day and before dusk begins to
fall. Aprons and other surfaces are usually subject to five inspections a day as well.
If impairments to operational safety or deviations from the desired state are suspected or found, Flughafen Mnchen
GmbH and DFS (tower) inform each other immediately and coordinate the chronology of the measures to restore
operational safety. Where possible, hindrances or delays to air traffic must be avoided as part of this.
The inspections and any causes for complaint are documented in Traffic Managements daily report. Initiated
measures are also recorded in the daily report.
In general, all employees are obligated to report immediately any safety deficiencies on movement areas, obstacle
limitation surfaces or security zones.
4.6 Visual aids and aerodrome electrical systems
Lighting facilities at Munich Airport are monitored technically and are inspected twice a day by expert staff
(Technology service area at the Air Traffic Areas and Facilities department) and checked for external damage at least
once a week. Their state is then reported to the DFS aerodrome control department (cf. the operating agreement
between DFS and FMG).
There are standby lists for emergency repairs to ensure these can be handled immediately or as quickly as possible.
4.7 Maintenance of the movement areas
The service areas responsible for tarmacked surfaces (apron, runways, taxiways) observe the procedures for routine
inspection of these surfaces. In this, the structural condition and operational safety are examined and the results
documented.
The occurrence of actual faults is reduced to the absolute minimum as a result of these preventive inspections.
If faults are nevertheless discovered, they are documented, analysed and passed onto the service area defined in the
service level agreement, e.g. Technology or another responsible unit. Appropriate expert employees assess the
damage in terms of severity and location; the results of this assessment are used to derive further measures.
16
Aerodrome Manual
4.8 Construction and maintenance work safety

Construction and maintenance work on the movement areas or in the vicinity which extends into the obstacle
limitation surfaces must be reported in good time in advance to Flughafen Mnchen GmbH (on-duty Traffic Manager)
to ensure that it can be carried out safely. The procedures for the construction and maintenance measures are
planned centrally by Traffic Management. Traffic Management must ensure operational safety and permits the
measures to be carried out, if operations so allow.
Together with Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH, Traffic Management coordinates the construction projects on and near
the movement areas and defines the general conditions for the activities (e.g. working hours, equipment). Publication
of a NOTAM is applied for with DFS if required. Communications by Traffic Management relating to the construction
and maintenance measures inform all affected parties of coordinated work on the movement area (apron, taxiway)
and not only include details on time and location, but also a description of the affected systems and facilities and the
anticipated impact on operations.
In the event of unforeseen impairment to flight operations, the supervisor at air traffic control and the on-duty Traffic
Manager must be informed immediately.
4.9 Apron management
Tasks and areas of responsibility of Traffic Management:
Alerting of the rescue services in the event of aircraft or traffic accidents
Ensuring traffic and operational safety on the taxiway and apron
Conducting of operational safety inspections, decommissioning of parts of the flight operation areas that are
no longer in working order and putting them back into operation after they have been inspected and repaired
Publication of up-to-date operating restrictions via ATIS, NOTAM or SNOWTAM
Monitoring of taxiing and stationary aircraft traffic
Creation of the conditions on the ground for flight operations under CAT II/III weather conditions
Marshalling, securing and parking of aircraft/helicopters and towing at the positions
Marshalling of external vehicle traffic on the apron and taxiway (in cooperation with the DFS control tower
and Apron Control)
Ensuring operational safety directly before docking at the positions
Monitoring of taxiing and stationary vehicle traffic
Tasks and areas of responsibility of Traffic Services:
Guiding taxiing aircraft from the apron boundary over the apron to the assigned positions and vice versa
Assignment of parking positions, passenger waiting rooms and check-in counters
The operating agreement between DFS and FMG governs as part of the competences of both parties the
cooperation required to ensure safe, quick and orderly handling of air traffic at Munich Airport.
The operating agreement demarcates the competences of both parties and describes the scope of cooperation in
more detail. It also contains a description of various procedures for handling air traffic, special regulations and
appropriate plans.
Aircraft are parked at their assigned positions either with the aid of a visual docking guidance system or the
internationally valid signals of a marshal.
It must be ensured that there is no handling equipment whatsoever in the taxing area and that marshalling can be
carried out in compliance with the regulations.
17
Aerodrome Manual
4.10 Apron safety management

Operational safety at the handling positions and on the aprons, taxiways and roads is achieved by means of
inspections, which the Security service area and Traffic Management are authorised to conduct.
Aircraft must not be fuelled or defuelled in hangars or other enclosed rooms, but only at the places assigned by the
airport operator. If an aircraft has to be fuelled or defuelled in an enclosed room for compelling reasons, this is
permitted only with the approval and special fire protection by the airport fire brigade.
According to the German Federal Aviation Office, fuelling of aircraft with passengers on board or while passengers
are boarding or disembarking is permissible without the airport fire brigade being on standby within sufficient
extinguishing distance from the aircraft if the requirements of JAR-OPS 1 (Joint Aviation Requirements Commercial
Air Transportation [Aeroplane]) have been met.
The safety requirements to be fulfilled by the airline are part of their ground or flight operations manuals. They may
include stipulations above and beyond those of JAR-OPS 1.
If internal safety requirements of the airline necessitate the fire brigade being within extinguishing distance, this
service by the fire brigade will be charged to the party that requests it (in accordance with the FMGs scale of
charges).
If accidents involving persons, vehicles or aircraft on the aprons and taxiways are identified, Traffic Management
must be informed immediately, with the stipulation that further assistance by the doctor, fire brigade, police, airport
security service, etc., must be instigated. The Security service area and Traffic Management are responsible for
recording the accident, its causes and the damage arising from it. The persons involved in and witnesses to the
accident must make themselves available to provide details for the accident report.
In addition, the respectively valid versions of the Traffic Rules for the Non-Public Area of the Airport and the Airport
Rules and Regulations apply.
4.11 Airside vehicle control
The traffic and safety regulations are binding on all users who enter the non-public area of Munich Airport on foot or
by car in accordance with the Airport Rules and Regulations. Unless otherwise specified in the traffic rules, users
must comply with the German Road Traffic Regulations.
The airport operator can restrict or block access of traffic in the non-public area of Munich Airport for operational
reasons. The airport operator reserves the right to impose special regulations in exceptional and special cases.
The Security service area and Traffic Management are responsible for monitoring people and vehicular traffic in the
security zone.
They are authorised to control people and vehicles and to take the measures necessary to ensure compliance with
the rules and regulations.
The instructions of this group of persons and of persons with sovereign authority must be observed, provided they
are acting as part of their sovereign activity. To ensure safety, every person is required to report violations of the
traffic and safety regulations to Traffic Management.
The traffic rules can be found in the brochure Traffic Rules for the Non-Public Area of the Airport published by
Flughafen Mnchen GmbH.
Here are some excerpts from it:
The maximum speed in the entire non-public operations area is generally limited to 30 km/h.
Vehicles must be driven at walking pace (max. 6 km/h) in the safety zone around parked aircraft and in buildings.
-
If the traffic rules are violated in the operations and apron areas, Traffic Management and the Security
service area are authorised to issue cautions and warnings
In the event of violations, the driving permit can be provisionally withdrawn and/or offenders ordered to
attend subsequent training at their expense
In the event of culpable violations, the offenders shall reimburse Flughafen Mnchen GmbH for the resultant
administrative costs. The right to assert further claims for damages is not affected thereby
In addition, Flughafen Mnchen GmbH reserves the right to revoke permission to enter the non-public
operations area on foot or by vehicle in accordance with the provisions of the Airport Rules and Regulations
and the ID card regulations
18
Aerodrome Manual
This shall apply in particular in the case of gross or repeated violations of the traffic rules
4.12 Engine test runs

Applications to use the engine test facility must always be submitted beforehand to the Central Traffic Management
Office and must contain the following details:
Aircraft call sign
Period of use
Anticipated towing time
Planned change in position
The Central Traffic Management Office approves any reservation request provided there is no impediment to the
planned testing activity. In case of overlapping reservation requests, the testing times are generally assigned on a
first come, first served basis. Changes to the approved utilisation time or the aircraft call sign are treated as a new
reservation request. If a taxi request is not received by Apron Control by the time of the approved start of testing, the
utilisation permit is null and void. Overruns of the scheduled testing time must be reported in a timely manner to the
Central Traffic Management Office.
Anyone using the noise control hangar is subject to the provisions of the Airport Rules and Regulations and the
instructions issued by the airport operator on their implementation. Further instructions of the airport operator must
also be followed in individual cases.
4.13 Wildlife hazard management
The presence of birds and wildlife at or in the close vicinity of an airport is a serious hazard to air traffic.
In accordance with the guidelines of the Federal Ministry of Transport, management has appointed a Bird Strike
Officer.
The Bird Strike Officer holds the main responsibility for coordinating, carrying out and supervising all measures to
prevent bird strikes in aviation. His/her activities are based on the recommendations of the German Airports
Association (ADV). The Bird Strike Officer maintains continuous documentation on all available observations,
received reports and planned, initiated or conducted measures.
He/she is responsible for maintaining contact with the German Committee for the Prevention of Bird Strikes in
Aviation (DAVVL e.V.), planning authorities, aviation authorities, DFS and competent natural preservation authorities.
In addition, his/her activities are defined by the staff instructions enacted by management.
As part of its inspection trips, Traffic Management pays heed to changes to biotopes and the volume of birds. Traffic
Management carries out appropriate measures if there is an immediate risk to air traffic. All observations and
measures are documented. Dead birds and other animals are disposed of and their discovery documented.
Among other things, the following active measures are taken to prevent bird strikes at Munich Airport:
Scaring of animals away from the aerodrome by means of pyroacoustic measures and live ammunition
Exclusion of wildlife by fencing and other means
Removal of animals from the aerodrome
Selective hunting
Weekly survey of bird stocks using the point/stop method
Observation of mouse densities and, if necessary, initiation of measures in areas defined by the Bird Strike
Officer
In special cases, e.g. imminent danger as a result of large flocks, the entrusted services (Wildlife Control / Traffic
Management) chase them away immediately by using technical aids. The use of acoustic measures to chase birds
and wildlife away is reported to the safety bodies and DFS.
DFS responsibility to initiate immediate measures is not affected by this.
In addition, passive measures as part of habitat management are used.
19
Aerodrome Manual
4.14 Obstacle control

DFS regularly commissions surveys to ensure that the takeoff and landing surfaces are free of obstacles.
Traffic Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements to ensure areas and surfaces are free of
obstacles within its sphere of authority. These include obstacles to air traffic that occur for a limited period of time and
cause disruptions to flight operations and a hazard to the obstacle limitation surfaces (e.g. aircraft involved in an
accident, cranes, construction vehicles, lighting masts).
Necessary measures in response to obstacles arising are agreed between Traffic Management and DFS.
Arrangements on this can be found in the operating agreement between DFS and FMG.
4.15 Removal of disabled aircraft
In accordance with the stipulations in the emergency plan, aircraft are removed after any necessary rescue measures
have been performed. Any danger to people through and during the removal must be ruled out as far as possible.
In principle, the airline that runs the disabled aircraft is responsible for removing it. Upon request, the airport fire
brigade provides appropriate personnel to remove the disabled aircraft. A list of additional general equipment and
materials is available to the airport fire brigade/technical mission command. Removal equipment can also be
obtained from the ADV pool.
In principle, a written agreement must be concluded before an aircraft can be removed.
The agreement must be signed by the pilot or a representative of the airline.
In accordance with Section 45 LuftVZO, FMG as the airport operator is required to maintain the operational safety of
the airport and has a duty to operate it properly, i.e. if necessary must also ensure that the runway system is cleared
of disabled aircraft.
If an aircraft is immobilised, the airport operating company may remove it at the aircraft operator's expense from the
flight operation areas, even if not requested to do so by the operator of the aircraft, if this is necessary for smooth
flight operations.
The airport operating company is liable for damage only if it has caused it through intent or gross negligence. The
same applies if the aircraft operator has commissioned it with removing or helping to remove a disabled aircraft from
the flight operation areas.
If an aircraft is immobilised and the airport operating company suffers economic loss as a result, it can demand
reimbursement from the aircraft operator, unless the latter is not to blame or can only be accused of slight
negligence.
4.16 Handling of hazardous materials
Loading units containing hazardous goods must be labelled with a red/white hatched weighing slip and specify the
hazardous goods loaded on the unit in question.
Hazardous goods may only be handled in compliance with national and international statutory requirements for air
and road traffic. The persons commissioned with handing such materials must be instructed in the regulations
pertaining to hazardous goods. In the field of air traffic, training courses on hazardous goods must be repeated every
24 months. Proof of completion of the basic and refresh training must be furnished.
Hazardous goods must be stored only at premises where they are allowed to be kept. The prior consent of the airport
fire brigade is required. If specific quantities are exceeded, formal permission from the competent authorities must be
obtained.
If damaged hazardous goods are discovered or hazardous substances are set free during loading or unloading, the
fire brigade (tel. 112) and Traffic Management (tel. 111) must be alerted immediately. The danger zone must be
secured.
The command centre of the fire brigade initiates measures in accordance with the alarm and response regulations of
the airport fire brigade. The danger zone is defined and cordoned off by the fire brigade.
Traffic Management notifies the affected airline/haulage company/handling partner and the police at Munich Airport.
The latter calls in the State Office for Environmental Protection (LfU) and other authorities, depending on the nature
of the incident and degree of risk.

4.17.1 Procedure in adverse visibility conditions
The German Meteorological Service (DWD) has technical competence in meteorological matters at Munich Airport.
Its sensors and systems comply with the minimum technical requirements of the standards recommend by the ICAO.
DFS transmits and publishes the following weather data via ATIS or in direct radio communications with the pilots:
Wind direction and speed and associated extreme values
Ground visibility and current weather
Runway visual range (RVR)
Particulars of cloud cover for landings
Air pressure
Additional details on weather phenomena that represent dangers to aviation
Runway conditions and other flight operation information, such as availability of the ILS
The German Meteorological Service uses transmissiometers to determine the runway visual range. There are four
transmissiometers at each runway: A D in the north and E H in the south.
The runway visual range is specified in metres. The steps used in the reporting scale for RVR (AIP GEN 3.5-9A, 4.2
Runway Visual Range [RVR]) are as follows:
RVR
25 m to 400 m
in steps of
25 m
RVR above
400 m to 800 m
in steps of
50 m
RVR above
800 m to 1,500 m
in steps of
100 m
The procedure for all-weather operations comes into effect if the RVR is 1000 m and the cloud ceiling is 300 ft or
less.
The request to create the requirements for all-weather operations on the ground in accordance with category II (CAT
II/III) is issued by the tower at a runway visibility (as measured by the transmissiometers) of RVR 600 m and/or a
vertical visibility (VV) of less than 300 ft and decreasing.
Category III is requested by the DFS tower at a horizontal visibility of RVR 325 m and a vertical visibility of less than
100 ft and worsening. Traffic Management is then called on to create the conditions for all-weather operations on the
ground.
In category CAT II/III, all travel in the runway system is permitted only after approval by DFS and using radio
communications. Listening watch must be maintained at all times. If radio communications fails, the runway area
must be cleared immediately and the fact reported to Traffic Management.
It is necessary to ensure that ILS protection areas and the safety area of the runway are clear of vehicles, equipment
and people.
Traffic Management activates the special text
CAT II/III low visibility procedures active, do not cross red stop bars
in the universal display system (UDS).
Travel and activities in the runway system must be kept to an absolute minimum.
Activated stop bars must not be passed. If stop bars fail, it is necessary to ensure that the runway is protected
against unauthorised use by vehicles in another way.
The procedure for adverse visibility conditions is still as follows:
DFS (supervisor in the tower) informs Flughafen Mnchen GmbH (Traffic Management) of its intention to impose
category II/III and the end of it via the CAT II/III display system. Flughafen Mnchen GmbH (Traffic Management)
ensures that the necessary requirements for commencing flight operations after category II/III are fulfilled or informs
DFS (tower) if these requirements are not met.
DFS (supervisor in the tower) also informs Flughafen Mnchen GmbH (Traffic Management) when flight operations
are actually commenced or ended after category II/III.
At the latest when category II (RVR < 600 m) commences, DFS (tower) turns on the stop bars and the taxiway centre
line lighting in its area of responsibility.

Aerodrome Manual
4.17.2 Taxiway guidance in the event of low visibility on the aprons

In addition to restricted visibility due to the weather, there may also be different visibility ranges on the aprons from
the control tower turrets of the Apron Control units, due to their height above ground level.
Operating visibility on the aprons is determined by Traffic Management, upon request by the shift leader of Apron
Control.
Operating visibility is divided into 3 levels:
Operating visibility level I: Visibility to the apron even during the hours of darkness
Operating visibility level II: No visibility to the apron; operating visibility >300m
Operating visibility level III: No visibility to the apron; operating visibility <300m
Depending on the ascertained operating visibility in the respective areas of responsibility, the lighting level A or B
must be activated on the lighting monitors.
4.18 Unusual weather events
Measures by Traffic Management
Send a weather warning by trunked radio
Send a weather warning to those on the fax distribution list
Publish a weather warning in the footer of the universal display system (UDS)
Announcement on ground radio if wind forces exceed 40 kt
Notification of airlines and handling services
Greater controls of the flight operation areas
Safety measures in the event of strong winds
Instigate protection of aircraft against strong winds
Instruct nose-into-the-wind parking (> 20 kt) for regional jets and turboprop aircraft (in particular on the
western flight operation areas)
Securing of ground handling equipment and unit load devices (ULDs) (storage in a hangar if possible)
If necessary, recommend safety fuelling to airlines (wind forces above 50 kt)
Close the doors and cargo hatches of aircraft
Temporary stoppage of handling in the event of constant winds in excess of 50 kt
No provision of a second service stairway
Removal of stairways and passenger boarding bridges
Ground handling equipment may be connected to the aircraft only directly during the handling process
Alert the standby sweeping unit
Safety measures in the event of storms
Stoppage of aircraft handling, including fuelling.
Safety measures in the event of hailstorms

4.19 Winter services

Winter services are carried out in compliance with the Continuous Snow Plan published in the Aeronautical
Information Publication (AIP) Germany, supplemented by the Seasonal Snow Plan, which is announced in the Air
Transport Bulletin (NfL) before the beginning of winter.
The scope and chronological order of any necessary winter service measures in DFS sphere of responsibility are
agreed between the DFS tower and FMGs Traffic Management.
The rosters for Winter Services employees on standby come into effect on November 1 and remain in force April 30
of the next year. The task forces keep the runway system, the taxiways, the apron and the other surfaces free of
snow and ice.
The nature and scope of the measures are described in detail in the Winter Operations Manual. It also specifies the
priority with which the surfaces have to be treated.
4.20 Protection of radar and navigational aids
The radar and navigational systems at Munich Airport are the property of DFS and are operated by it. Procedures for
protecting the systems and ensuring they are in perfect working order are in place and are conducted in agreement
with FMG and its departments.
