Section 3. Initial Separation of Departing
and Arriving Aircraft
6-3-1. SEPARATION MINIMA
a. Separate a departing aircraft from an arriving
aircraft making an instrument approach to the same
airport by using one of the following minima until
vertical or lateral separation is achieved:
b. TERMINAL. When takeoff direction differs by
at least 45 degrees from the reciprocal of the final
approach course, the departing aircraft takes off
before the arriving aircraft leaves a fix inbound not
less than 4 miles from the airport.
c. TERMINAL. When takeoff direction is other
than in subpara a, the departing aircraft takes off so
that it is established on a course diverging by at least
45 degrees from the reciprocal of the final approach
course before the arriving aircraft leaves a fix
inbound not less than 4 miles from the airport.
d. TERMINAL. When the absence of an appropriate fix precludes the application of subparas b or c and
at airports where approach control service is not
provided, the separation in subparas e or f shall be
applied.
e. When takeoff direction differs by at least
45 degrees from the reciprocal of the final approach
course, the departing aircraft takes off 3 minutes
before the arriving aircraft is estimated at the airport.
(See FIG 6-3-1.)
f. When takeoff direction is other than in
subpara d, the departing aircraft takes off so that it is
established on a course diverging by at least
45 degrees from the reciprocal of the final approach
course 5 minutes before the arriving aircraft is
estimated at the airport or before it starts procedure
turn. (See FIG 6-3-2 and FIG 6-3-3.)
