Checklists and list of valid NOTAM

GEN 3.1-2 AIP
3 June 2010 NEPAL
NOTAM monthly checklists are issued via the Aeronautical Fixed Service (AFS), while
monthly NOTAM Summary of valid NOTAM are issued via mail. PIB are made available at
International NOTAM Office, AIS Division, Tribhuvan International Airport. All other
elements of the package are distributed by air mail.
3.2. Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP)

The AIP is the basic aviation document intended primarily to satisfy international requirements
for the exchange of permanent aeronautical information and temporary changes of long
duration essential for air navigation.
AIP Nepal is published in a single volume in English in a loose-leaf form.
3.3. Amendment Service to the AIP (AIP AMDT)

Amendments to the AIP are made by means of replacement sheets. Two types of AIP AMDT
are produced:
Regular AIP Amendment (AIP AMDT), issued in accordance with the established
regular interval (ref. GEN 0.1-3) and identified by a light blue cover sheet, incorporates
permanent changes into the AIP on the indicated publication date; and
AIRAC AIP amendment (AIRAC AIP AMDT), issued in accordance with the AIRAC
system and identified by a pink cover sheet and the acronym-AIRAC, incorporated
operationally significant permanent changes into the AIP on the indicated AIRAC
effective date.
A brief description of the subjects affected by the amendment is given on the AIP Amendment
cover sheet. New information included on the reprinted AIP pages is annotated or identified by
a vertical line in the left margin (or immediately to the left) of the change/addition.
Each AIP page and AIP replacement page introduced by an amendment, including the
amendment cover sheet, are dated. The date consists of the day, month (by name) and year of
the publication date (regular AIP AMDT) or of the AIRAC effective date (AIRAC AIP
AMDT) of the information. Each AIP amendment cover sheet includes references to the serial
number of those elements, if any, of the Integrated Aeronautical Information Package which
have been incorporated in the AIP by the amendment and are consequently cancelled.
Each AIP AMDT and each AIRAC AIP AMDT are allocated a separate serial number which
are consecutive and based on the calendar year. The year, indicated by two digits, is a part of
the serial number of the amendment, e.g. AIP AMDT 1/96; AIRAC AIP AMDT 1/96.
A checklist of AIP pages containing page number/chart title and the publication or effective
date (day, month by name and year) of the information is reissued with each amendment and is
an integral part of the AIP.
3.4. Supplement to the AIP (AIP SUP)

Temporary changes of long duration (three month and longer) and information of short
duration which consists of extensive text and/or graphics, supplementing the permanent
information contained in the AIP, are published as AIP Supplements (AIP SUP). Operationally
significant temporary charges to the AIP are published in accordance with the AIRAC system
and its established effective dates and are identified clearly by the acronym AIRAC AIP SUP.
AIP Supplements are separated by information subject (General - GEN, En-route-ENR and
Aerodromes-AD) and are placed accordingly at the beginning of each AIP Part. Supplements

AIP GEN 3.1-3
NEPAL 3 June 2010
are published on yellow paper to be conspicuous and to stand out from the rest of the AIP.
Each AIP Supplement (regular or AIRAC) is allocated a serial number which is conspicuous
and based on the calendar year, i.e. AIP SUP 1/96; AIRAC AIP SUP 1/96.
An AIP Supplement is kept in the AIP as long as all or some of its contents remain valid. The
Period of validity of the information contained in the AIP Supplement will normally be given
in the supplement itself. Alternatively, NOTAM may be used to indicate changes to the period
of validity or cancellation of the supplement.
The checklist of AIP Supplements currently in force is issued in the monthly printed plain
language list of valid summary of NOTAM.
3.5. NOTAM and Pre-flight Information Bulletins (PIB)

NOTAM contain information concerning the establishment, condition or change in any
aeronautical facility, service, procedure or hazard, the timely knowledge of which is essential
for personnel concerned with flight operations. The text of each NOTAM contains the
information in the order shown in the ICAO NOTAM Format and is composed of the
significations/uniform abbreviated phraseology assigned to the ICAO NOTAM Code
complemented by ICAO abbreviations, indicators, identifiers, designator, call signs,
frequencies, figures and plain language. NOTAM are originated and issued for Kathmandu FIR
(VNSM) and are distributed in four series identified by the letters A, B, C and S.
Series A. General rules, en-route navigation and communication facilities, airspace

restrictions and activities taking place and information concerning international aerodrome.
Series B. Containing full information on all aerodromes facilities and procedures

available for use in international distribution to adjacent states only.
Series C. Containing information of concern to national aerodromes only.
Series S (SNOWTAM) In winter season, some aerodromes at higher elevation get snow
falling. Such information concerning snow, slush, ice in the movement areas are issued in the
form of SNOWTAM and made national distribution to the concerned only. NOTAM are
published as and when necessary to disseminate information of direct operational significance
which
a) is of ephemeral nature ;
b) requires advance distribution ; or
c) Immediate dissemination is required
Each NOTAM is assigned a four digits serial number preceded by an appropriate letter
indicating the series and followed by a stroke and two digits indicating the year of issuance.
The serial numbers start with 0001 at 0000 UTC on 1st January every year. A check list of
NOTAM currently in force is issued every month over the AFS. Additionally, a printed plain
language summary of NOTAM in force is sent by airmail to those who had originally received
the NOTAM over the AFS, as well as to others on request.

GEN 3.1-4 AIP

3.6. Aeronautical Information Circular (AIC)

The Aeronautical Information Circulars (AIC) contain information on the long-term forecast of
any major changes in legislation, regulation, procedure or facility; information of a purely
explanatory or advisory nature liable to affect flight safety; and information or notification of
an explanatory or advisory nature concerning technical, legislative or purely administrative
matters. AICs are divided by subject and are issued in two series (A and B). AIC Series A
contains information affecting international civil aviation and is given international
distribution, while AIC Series B contains information affecting national aviation only and is
given national distribution.
Each AIC is numbered consecutively within each series on a calendar year basis. The year,
indicated by two digits, is a part of the serial number of the AIC, e.g. AIC A 1/96; AIC B 1/96.
A checklist of AIC currently in force is issued as an AIC once a year.
3.7. Checklist and List of valid NOTAM

A checklist of valid NOTAM is issued monthly via the AFS. The checklist is followed by a
printed list of valid NOTAM distributed by mail to all recipients of the Integrated Aeronautical
Information Package. It contains a plain language (in English) presentation of the valid
NOTAM and information about the number of the latest issued AIP AMDT, AIRAC AIP
AMDT, AIP SUP and AIC as well as the number of the elements issued under the AIRAC that
will become effective or, if none, the NIL AIRAC notification.
3.8. Sale of Publication

The AIP may be purchased from the Aeronautical Information Services; Civil Aviation
Authority of Nepal, Babar Mahal at US $ 80 (Plus US $ 20 for postage); The fee for the AIP
AMDT service is US $ 10 per year ((Plus US $ 10 for postage, to be paid in advance). AIP
supplements and Aeronautical circulars are available free of charge to all subscribers of the
AIP.
4. AIRAC System
4.1. In order to control and regulate the operationally significant changes requiring
amendments to charts, route-manuals etc., such changes, whenever possible, will be issued on
predetermined dates according to the AIRAC System. This type of information will be
published as an AIRAC AIP AMDT or an AIRAC AIP SUP. If an AIRAC AMDT or SUP
cannot be produced due to lack of time, NOTAM clearly marked AIRAC will be issued. Such
NOTAM will immediately be followed by an AMDT or SUP.
4.2. The table below indicates AIRAC effective dates for the coming years. AIRAC
information will be issued so that the information will be received by the user not later than 28
days, and for major changes not later than 56 days, before the effective date. At AIRAC
effective date, a trigger NOTAM will be issued giving a brief description of the contents,
effective date and reference number of the AIRAC AIP AMDT or AIRAC AIP SUP that will
become effective on that date. Trigger NOTAM will remain in force as a reminder in the PIB
until the new checklist/list is issued.
If no information was submitted for publication at the AIRAC date, a NIL notification will be
issued by NOTAM not later than one AIRAC cycle before the AIRAC effective date
concerned.
