Minimum Requirements to Conduct Rwy 22 LAHSO

FAA Order 7110.65S

Para. 3-10-4 Intersecting Rwy Separation

1. LAHSO (RY22) will only be conducted in VFR conditions (1,400/4).

2. Instruct the aircraft landing on Rwy 22 to hold short of K Taxiway for traffic landing Rwy 17.

3. Issue traffic information to both aircraft involved and obtain an acknowledgment from each. Request a read back of hold short instructions when they are not received from the pilot of the restricted aircraft.

4. Issue the measured distance from the landing threshold to the hold short point rounded down to the nearest 50-foot increment if requested by either aircraft (8,550 feet available).

5. Conditions of 2, 3, and 4 shall be met in sufficient time for the pilots to take other action (normally when landing clearance is issued).



6. Land and Hold short runways must be free of any contamination, with no reports that braking action is less than good.

7. There is no tailwind for the landing aircraft restricted to hold short of the intersection. The wind may be described as “calm” when appropriate.

8. The aircraft required landing distances are listed in the current LAHSO directive.

9. LAHSO lighting in place and operational.



MSP Facility Initiatives

10. 1,400/4 will be the weather minimum for this operation.

11. No heavy aircraft will be asked to hold short (Except B753)

12. Military aircraft will participate in a passive role only.

13. A“Local Assist” shall be in place for moderate or greater traffic during Runway 17/22 operations. As a general rule CCN main responsibility will be the “Assist” for LCN to coordinate with GC’s for runway crossings between the parallels (while monitoring LCN). CCS main responsibility will be the “Assist” for LCS to put 2 aircraft in position at one time on 12R.

• Assign FOD/ONL departures heading 215°-250°.



Departures

• Assign LEINY/DWN/SMERF/FAR/BRD departures heading 270° or greater. Departure has control for turns west of the Runway 35 Localizer.

(Advise D if you turn a prop to a 300 inside a 270 jet or a similar operation, due to their control for turns.)

(Also be alert for 17/22 go arounds if you turn a prop west – northwest off RWY 12R.)



Departures

• LEINY, DWN and SMERF traffic shall be treated as one fix, 3 MIT initial departure spacing (jet to jet, prop to prop)

• FAR and BRD traffic shall be treated as one fix, 3 MIT initial departure spacing (jet to jet, prop to prop)

• Turn HIB/DLH/WLSTN traffic east, 5 MIT initial departure spacing (jet to jet, prop to prop)

Good operating procedure –

Since EAU props exit the airspace south of TWINZ and DLH/WLSTN jets exit the airspace north of TWINZ………

Departure control would like DLH/WLSTN

jets inside COULT (EAU) props when possible.

aircraft is in the DDA.

*Non - advertised Rwy operations will be coordinated in advance.

Departures

• Airspace, including departure dispersal airspace shall be the land 30 & 35, depart 30s configuration (when using any combination of 30L/35).

• All Runway 4 departures (other than 4/35 configuration) shall be approved and coordinated by the CC.

• Departure has control for turns on initial contact of aircraft departing Runway 35 and turned left.



Arrivals/Departures

• Land Runway 30L, depart Runway 17– Use 30/17 configuration– COULT traffic departing 17 shall be assigned to

North Departure and issued right turns.– North Departure has control for turns of COULT

traffic on initial contact.



North Flow – Local Frequencies

• Weather 1700/4 or greater– LCS – 30L arrivals & departures – 126.7– LCW – 35 arrivals & departures – 123.67

• Weather less than 1700/4– LCS – 30L arrivals & departures, 4 departures – 126.7– LCW – 35 arrivals & 17 departures – 123.67



Local Control Assist (LCA)

• Coordinates and relays traffic info between GC-N and GC-S. Other positions as needed.

• Authority to approve runway crossings of Runway 22 between the parallels without coordination from the Runway 22 Local Controller.

• LCA shall not approve a RWY22 crossing in front of a departure holding in position or in front of RWY22 traffic at a 1 mile final or less without coordinating with the Local controller.

• Combined with CCS when not staffed.



Taxi Procedures

• Normal Runway 22 crossing points:– Main terminal: P, Q, C6/M6, A, B– Humphrey terminal: S

• When LCA is open, all runway crossings of Runway 22 between the parallels should be coordinated by LCA.

• Ground control shall maintain heightened awareness to keep runway turnoffs clear of traffic.



Can you spot the potential for a Runway Incursion?

Can you spot the potential for a Runway Incursion?



HIGH POTENTIAL FOR RUNWAY INCURSION

If you guessed here, you are Correct!



HIGH POTENTIAL FOR RUNWAY INCURSION

If you are taxiing on Romeo towards the R3 entrance, You MUST STOP and Contact Ground PRIOR to Entering R3

Romeo Taxiway Hold Short Lines for Runway 22



Runway 35 Reduced Separation

• When Runway 35 is the only arrival runway, spacing on the final may be reduced to 2.5 NM.

Arrival Distance Window

• Arrival Distance Window (ADW)– A tool used by the tower to determine when a departure on

Runway 30L may be released so as to reduce the likelihood of a collision at the convergence of Runway 35 and 30L, IFIF the Runway 35 arrival executes a go around.

– Runway 30L departure may be released until Runway 35 arrival ENTERS the ADW (1.9 NM final).

– In this case, the departure will cross the convergence point approximately 15 seconds ahead of an arrival that executes a go around on Runway 35.






• Arrival Distance Window (ADW)– Runway 30L departure may be released when the Runway 35

arrival EXITS the ADW (.4 NM final).– In this case, the arrival on Runway 35 will cross the

convergence point approximately 15 seconds ahead of a departure that executes a go around on Runway 35.






• Runway 30L/35 Dependency – In order to provide the tower with useable departure gaps on

Runway 30L• Converging Runway Display Aid (CRDA)

• Provides “ghost target” on Runway 30L based on the position of the “real target” on Runway 35

• Position of the “ghost” is staggered with respect to the “real target” to provide departure opportunities on Runway 30L.

• Planned spacing to start with:– Runway 35…………….4 NM in-trail at touchdown– Runway 30L……………8 NM in-trail at touchdown

(eventually down to 3.5/7)
