| All | 5000 |
¶ IFR Clearance via SID
Example:
Cleared to Miami International Airport, via the ACONY# departure, SAPPO transition, then as filed. Climb via sid, expect FL400 10 minutes after departure. Departure frequency 120.9, squawk 3551.
¶ IFR Clearance without SID
Example:
Cleared to Miami International Airport, radar vectors (fix) then as filed. Maintain 5000, expect FL400 10 minutes after departure. Departure frequency 120.9, squawk 3551.
¶ IFR Squawk codes
via Aurora or 3501-3577
¶ VFR
TJSJ is class C airspace View Sectional Chart
VFR Deaprture Example:
Southbound departure approved, maintain VFR at or below 2500 until further advised. Departure frequency 119.4, Squawk 0301.
VFR Local Pattern Example:
Pattern altitude 1000, expect left closed traffic runway 8, squawk 1200.
¶ VFR Squawk Codes
via Aurora or 0301-0377
¶ Pushback
Movement area (taxiways):
pushback approved onto taxiway N, tail south, expect runway 8, call for taxi.
Non-movement areas (ramp):
pushback at pilot discretion, expect runway 8, call for taxi.
¶ Parking
- Air National Guard Ramp is located in the northeast on taxiway S7.
- General Aviation FBO is located east of taxiway N and N2
- Cargo parkings is located in the East, north of runway 28 along taxiway N3 and P.
¶ Hotspots
- interesections of N and S.
- intersection of N3 and L
¶ Taxi Flow
East Ops
West Ops
¶ Transponder
The airport is not qeuipped with ground radar (ASDE-X). Aircraft do not need to set squawk active while taxiing.
¶ Airspace
- TJSJ is class C airspace View Sectional Chart
¶ Area of Responsibility
- The ceiling is 3000ft MSL in a 5nm circle around the airport.
- Local Control owns all active RWY’s.
¶ Runway configuration
Wind calm: East Ops
East Ops:
Departure: 8
Arrival: 10
West Ops (wind greater than 10kts):
Departure: 28
Arrival: 26
- Do not issue a departure clearance for aircraft on runway 28 when aircraft inbound to runway 26 is inside a 2 mile final until the aircraft is on landing roll and past intersection S7 or is exiting S7 or S9 intersections.
- Runway 26 is the preferred arrival runway and runway 28 is the preferred departure runway. These runways must not be used for simultaneous IFR arrivals.
¶ Departure Headings
¶ Missed Approach & Go-arounds
All runways: runway heading and climb to 3000ft. Hand-off to APP/CTR.
