REPORT ON AGENDA ITEMS

Agenda Item 1: Adoption of Agenda (WP01)

1.1. The provisional agenda, as listed in Appendix C to this report was adopted by the meeting.

1.2. The list of Working and Information Papers (IP01) was noted.

Agenda Item 2: Review of the Current and Planned CNS/ATM Capabilities and Identifying
Associated Reduced Horizontal Separation

Review of the South China Sea Operational Concept (WP02)

2.1. ICAO presented the South China Sea Operational Concept, which was adopted at the
APANPIRG/27. This Operational Concept was originally expected to be implemented by 09
November 2017, and so far there were only minimum progress been made in terms of the
implementation of RNAV 2/RNP 2 routes, removing the application of Flight Level Allocation Scheme
(FLAS) and application of more efficient Air Traffic Control (ATC) standards.

2.2. Based on the results of survey conducted by ICAO Asia and Pacific Regional Office, which
was also presented at the Sixth Meeting of the ATM Sub-Group of APANPIRG (ATM/SG/6), it was
noted that several States/Administrations were not applying ATC standards correctly, preferring to use
larger, less efficient separations. This event also affected safety due to the increased ATC workload
managing larger spacing, and more conflicts.

2.3. States/Administration were urged to review and leverage their CNS/ATM system
capability by optimising the service levels that new systems were capable of under the Asia/Pacific
Seamless ATM Plan.

2.4. Upon query from the Philippines, the Secretariat informed that they would seek ICAO Asia
and Pacific Regional Office clarification on why the application of 10 Nautical Miles (NM) horizontal
separation in airspace with ATS surveillance (‘Category S airspace’) in Manila Flight Information
Region (FIR) was indicated as non-compliance with the Asia/Pacific Seamless ATM Plan expectations.

Enhancement of Horizontal Separation on ATS Route M768 (WP09)

2.5. Indonesia presented the proposal to reduce the horizontal separation on ATS route M768
from 80NM to 50NM, based on RNP 10, for consideration by the States concerned. This proposal
was initially discussed as a sideline during SCSTFRG/6, and its rational was to better accommodate the
increase in air traffic on this route.

2.6. The States concerned who were present at this meeting agreed to this proposal. However,
due to the absence of Cambodia and Viet Nam, which would also be affected by this proposal, the
meeting agreed that offline discussion among all the States concerned were necessary before providing
any implementation timeline. Singapore agreed to be the lead for the initiative, and would also
coordinate with Cambodia and Viet Nam.

Reports on Agenda Items

2.7. IATA thanked the States concerned for their encouraging and positive response, and
suggested the States concerned to also consider reducing the horizontal separation to 30NM in the
future.

2.8. A summary of the outcomes from a side meeting between Indonesia, Malaysia and
Singapore conducted during the SCSTFRG/7 is provided in Appendix D.

Information Updates to the New Philippine ATM Center (IP03)

2.9. The new Philippine Air Traffic Management Center (ATMC) was inaugurated in January
2018. The Philippines’ Aeronautical Message Handling System (AMHS) and Aeronautical
Information System (AIS) services had started operations in the new Philippine ATMC since February
2018 and July 2018 respectively, and as planned, the ATM services would be last to move to the new
Philippine ATMC (expected on 15 November 2018).

2.10. There would be changes to the Manila Area Control Centre (ACC) ATC sectorisation
where the number of ATC sectors were expected to increase from four to eight in the new Philippine
ATMC. It was also noted that there were plans to increase the number of ATC sectors to nine in 2019,
and with an ultimate target of 11 ATC sectors in future.

2.11. With the nationwide upgrade to a highly automated and integrated CNS and ATM system,
including ATS Inter-Facility Datalink Communication (AIDC), Automatic Dependant Surveillance –
Contract (ADS-C) and Controller Pilot Datalink Communications (CPDLC), enhanced surveillance and
PBCS capability, Philippines would now concentrate on optimising the main traffic flows within the
Manila FIR. Current plan involved enhancement of longitudinal spacing on ATS route A461, A583,
L625 and N892 from 80NM to 50NM, and would then progressively discuss with adjacent States to
further enhance to 30NM.

2.12. The meeting congratulated Philippines on the new Philippine ATMC, and hoped that the
transition from the old ATMC to the new Philippine ATMC would run smoothly and successfully
according to plan.

2.13. Hong Kong China and Philippines agreed to enhance the longitudinal spacing from 80NM
to 50NM on ATS route A461 and A583. A summary of the outcomes from a side meeting between
Hong Kong China, Indonesia and Philippines conducted during the SCSTFRG/7 is provided in
Appendix E.

ADS-C/CPDLC Planned Implementation in Manila FIR (IP04)

2.14. Philippines presented an update on the ADS-C/CPDLC implementation plan. The ADS-
C/CPDLC system was under-going system testing at the new Philippine ATMC, and it was noted that
trial implementation of the ADS-C/CPDLC system would be continued soon after the successful
transition of ATM operation from the old ATMC to the new Philippine ATMC, expected on 15
November 2018.

2
SCSTFRG/7
Reports on Agenda Items

2.15. The planned ADS-C/CPDLC operation areas (Figure 1) and implementation dates were
West Pacific Airspace (East Sector) – to be implemented in first quarter of 2019; and South China Sea
(North & West Sectors) – to be implemented in second quarter of 2019.

Figure 1. Manila ACC planned ADS-C/CPDLC operation areas

Ujung Pandang ACC Re-Sectorisation Programme (IP05)

2.16. Indonesia provided information on the Ujung Pandang ACC Re-Sectorisation Programme
(Phase III), which the Ujung Pandang ACC ATC sectors would be increased to nine working positions
by 6 December 2018 to cope with current and forecasted traffic demand. The re-sectorisation of Ujung
Pandang ACC was aimed at spreading the number of conflict points within a sector, achieving capacity-
demand balance while managing the ATC workload and ensuring an orderly flow of air traffic.

2.17. The meeting was informed that the Letter of Coordination Agreement between Ujung
Pandang ACC and Brisbane ACC had been revised to include the changes on coordination procedures
effected by the re-sectorisation of Ujung Pandang ACC. The next action was to revise the Letter of
Coordination Agreement between Ujung Pandang ACC and Jakarta ACC, and Manila ACC.

Initiatives to Optimize Airspace Capacity in Hong Kong FIR (IP08)

2.18. Hong Kong China had engaged a consultant to conduct en-route airspace review earlier
this year, and depending on the outcomes of this review, Hong Kong China would commence airspace
and air routes re-structuring programmes to enhance Hong Kong FIR airspace capacity, in a safe and
efficient manner.

2.19. At the bi-lateral meeting between Hong Kong ACC and Taipei ACC in early October 2018,
both ACCs had agreed to apply 20NM horizontal separation at waypoint ELATO and ENVAR, with
the following conditions:

a) Westbound traffic routing via ELATO, destination VHHH and VMMC only; and

3
SCSTFRG/7
Reports on Agenda Items

b) Eastbound traffic routing via ELATO and ENVAR, destination airports within Taibei
and Fukuoka FIRs only.

Implementation date was planned for January 2019, subject to satisfactory outcome of safety
assessment.

2.20. Hong Kong China would engage China at the earliest opportunity to discuss a phased
reduction of longitudinal spacing on ATS route L642, M771, A1/P901 and SIKOU, in 2019.

Agenda Item 3: Review of the Existing TF Route Structures in SCS Airspace and Identifying
Priorities

Optimisation of ATS Routes M771 and L642 (WP05)

3.1. Singapore presented proposals to address SCSTFRG/3 WP03 identified Priority Area 2:
L642/M771 – the possibility of implementing parallel routes for L642 and M771. This paper took
into account the Asia/Pacific Seamless ATM Plan and proposed States/Administration to designate ATS
routes L642, M771 and N892 as RNP 2 or RNAV 2 to enable the implementation of two additional
parallel routes (Figure 2), which would complement the utilisation of ATS routes M771 and L642.

Figure 2. Proposed parallel routes to L642 and M771

3.2. The meeting was provided with the potential benefits of the proposals, which included the
optimisation of route capacity, additional layer of safety and possible mitigation to Large Scale Weather
Deviation (LSWD) contingency procedures.

SCSTFRG/7
Reports on Agenda Items

3.3. The meeting agreed to designate ATS route L642, M771 and N892 as RNAV 2/RNP 2 to
enable reduction of lateral separation and Air Traffic Management Research Institute (ATMRI) to
conduct the simulations based on existing modelling and simulations capabilities to determine the
effectiveness and facilitate in the analysis of the proposal.

3.4. The members of the SCSTFRG who were present at this meeting agreed for Monitoring
Agency for Asia Region (MAAR) to provide the December 2017 Traffic Sample Data (TSD) for Hong
Kong, Kota Kinabalu, Kuala Lumpur, Manila and Singapore FIRs to ATMRI for the purpose of
modelling and simulation. The secretariat would liaise with China (for Sanya FIR) and Viet Nam for
their consensus to share their TSD with ATMRI.

Updated WPAC/SCS 2017 Traffic Sample Data Visualisation (IP07)

3.5. MAAR presented an updated visualisation of traffic flows in the Western Pacific and South
China Sea (WPAC/SCS) based on 2017 TSD received from the relevant States with additional data
received from China Regional Monitoring Agency. The additional data was for Sanya FIR, which
included traffic flow analysis on ATS routes A1, L642 and M771.

3.6. The traffic flow analysis was based on December 2017 TSD, and due to the lack of
information, the visual presentation of the traffic flow (Figure 3) did not include traffic flow analysis
on ATS route A202 within Sanya FIR. Blue lines represent westbound movements and orange lines
represent eastbound movements.

Agenda Item 4: Discussion on PBN Routes Development and FLAS/FLOS Optimization

Asia/Pacific Region ATS Route Catalogue (WP03)

5
SCSTFRG/7
Reports on Agenda Items

4.1. ICAO presented the most recent Version 17 of the Asia/Pacific Region ATS Route
Catalogue, and the focus of this group was to review and update the route proposals contained in
Chapter 2 of the Catalogue. States were urged to review and categorise route proposals as ‘not
possible’, ‘short term’ (within 12 months), ‘medium term’ (within 12-36 months) and ‘long term’
(possible after 36 months).

4.2. There was no update provided by the States/Administration on the route proposals
contained in Chapter 2 of the Asia/Pacific Region ATS Route Catalogue. ICAO informed the meeting
that similar paper would again be raised during the Twenty-Sixth Meeting of the South-East Asia ATS
Coordination Group (SEACG/26) from 1 to 4 April 2019 in Bangkok, Thailand. ICAO reminded the
States/Administration to come prepared to discuss relevant route proposals during SEACG/26.

4.3. ICAO also informed the meeting that the management of the Asia/Pacific Region ATS
Route Catalogue had been handed over to ICAO Asia and Pacific Regional Sub-Office; therefore,
communications related to this Catalogue should be made via email to apac-rso@icao.int.

Southeast Asia Route Review Implementation Plan Proposals (WP04)

4.4. ICAO presented the Southeast Asia Route Review Implementation Plan Proposals, which
were originally proposed by the Southeast Asia Route Review Task Force (SEA-RR/TF). The SEA-
RR/TF met six times prior to its being dissolved, and the on-going tasks were delegated to existing
bilateral or multilateral groups, i.e. South East Asia ATS Coordination Group (SEACG), Mekong Air
Traffic Management Coordination Group Meeting (MK-ATM/CG) and East Asia ATM Coordination
Group (EATMCG).

4.5. SEACG through the SEACG/22 had referred the following route proposals to the
SCSTFRG for review.
a) SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 5, M756 TSN-ENREP;
b) SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 10, L628;
c) SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 11, M768;
d) SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 14, M771; and
e) SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 15, L642.

Details of these route proposals were provided in SCSTFRG/7 WP04 Attachment A, B, C and D.

4.6. Due to the absence of Viet Nam, the meeting agreed for the route proposals SEA Route
Review Implementation Plan Proposal 5, M756 TSN-ENREP and SEA Route Review Implementation
Plan Proposal 10, L628 to be reviewed at the SCSTFRG/8 or SEACG/26, depending on which meeting
would take place earlier.

4.7. For SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 11, M768, the meeting agreed for
this route proposal to be considered being removed from SEACG Task List, and to concentrate on
reduction of longitudinal spacing on ATS route M768 from 80NM to 50NM based on RNP 10 with the
possibility of reducing it further to 30NM in the future.

Reports on Agenda Items

4.8. For SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 14 and 15, M771 and L642, the
meeting agreed for these route proposals to be considered being removed from SEACG Task List, and
to concentrate on route proposal SCS01 and SCS02 of the Asia/Pacific Region ATS Route Catalogue.

Review of South China Sea FLOS (WP06)

4.9. IFATCA highlighted that since the inception of the Modified Single Alternate Flight Level
Orientation Scheme (FLOS) and FLAS in the South China Sea area, there had been a number of
significant changes to the traffic levels, particularly to the secondary crossing routes. The present
traffic demand on some secondary crossing routes resulted in additional ATC workload and ground
delays, which was totally contrary to the original purpose of the South China Sea Modified Single
Alternate FLOS and FLAS.

4.10. Based on the statistical data and analysis of the information provided by MAAR and Civil
Aviation Bureau of Japan at various regional review meetings, it had clearly indicated that the traffic
numbers on the primary routes N892/L625 and N884/M767 have shown a low rate of growth.
Whereas, the traffic numbers on the secondary crossing routes A461 and A583 in the north, and M758
and M761 in the south of the South China Sea area have shown far above average growth rates. It was
therefore difficult to justify the continued use of the distribution of flight levels that was implemented
16 years ago.

4.11. It was also noted that MAAR had consistently highlighted the Manila/Taipei and
Manila/Fukuoka FIR boundaries as ‘Large Height Deviation (LHD) Hotspots’ because of the number
of flight level discrepancy events that occurred in these areas. This was due to the requirement for
transitions between the Standard Single Alternate system (compliance with ICAO Annex 2, Appendix
3a) used in Taipei and Fukuoka FIRs and the Modified Single Alternate FLOS used in the South China
Sea area.

4.12. IFATCA also commented on the South China Sea LSWD procedures that reduces the
capacity of the affected routes by 50% due to the ad hoc and reactive nature of the implementation
process. The meeting noted that in Europe and North America, an organised and pre-coordinated
contingency route system was established with a minimal reduction in airspace capacity. United
States of America advised that they would provide a briefing on their 'Playbook' process in proactively
managing major weather events at the SEACG/26.

4.13. Noting the above, and taking advantage of the improved CNS and ATM systems
capabilities over the entire South China Sea area, IFATCA proposed the following proposals:

a) Phase 1: Revision of FLAS on selected ATS routes.

Re-allocation of two of the six flight levels on the primary routes N892, L625, N884
and M767 (one eastbound and one westbound) to the secondary crossing routes A461,
A583, M758 and M761. The remaining four flight levels on the primary routes
would provide adequate capacity under normal circumstances to satisfy the traffic
demand. The additional capacity that one flight level in each direction on the

7
SCSTFRG/7
Reports on Agenda Items

secondary crossing routes would relieve some of the delays and restrictions that are
currently imposed on traffic.

b) Phase 2: Revision of FLOS on selected ATS routes.

Consideration should be given to resolving the long-standing safety issues that the
South China Sea Modified Single Alternate FLOS continues to generate at the
boundaries of area, specifically those of the Manila, Taipei and Fukuoka FIRs. A
revision of the FLOS on the primary routes N892/L625 and N884/M767, from the
South China Sea FLOS to the ICAO Standard Single Alternate FLOS would serve the
purpose of removing the need to transition flights at the Manila FIR boundary and
thereby resolve the LHD safety issues.

c) Phase 3: Normalised South China Sea Modified Single Alternate FLOS to standard
FLOS

4.14. After lengthy deliberation, the meeting agreed for the review of existing FLAS/FLOS
operating within the South China Sea with a view to enhancing efficiencies to be accorded as Priority
Area 4 of the SCSTFRG. Discussion on this Priority Area 4 would take place after the completion of
action items under Priority Area 1, 2 and 3.

Handling Overflight Traffic within Kota Kinabalu FIR (WP07)

4.15. Malaysia presented the challenges faced by Kota Kinabalu ACC in managing traffic,
which require transition of flight level to the meet the FLAS of particular routes before handing over to
the next ACC. As an example, westbound traffic operating on ATS route M522/M754 that entered
Kota Kinabalu FIR at waypoint VINIK would be transferred by Manila ACC at an odd level (FLAS:
FL290/FL330/FL370). Kota Kinabalu ACC would then need to manage the same aircraft, either to
climb or descend, to meet the FLAS at waypoint MAMOK (FL320/FL360/FL400) before handing over
to Ujung Pandang ACC. Figure 4 illustrates the current FLAS arrangement within Kota Kinabalu FIR.

Figure 4. FLAS for Kota Kinabalu FIR

8
SCSTFRG/7
Reports on Agenda Items

4.16. With the confluence of 12 ATS routes at VJN (Kota Kinabalu DVOR/DME), and an
average of 42% of overflight traffic (1120 overflight traffic per week) requires transition of flight level,
Malaysia proposed for a holistic review of the South China Sea Modified Single Alternate FLOS and
FLAS. This would reduce the ATC workload, safety risk and LHD occurrences in Kota Kinabalu FIR.

4.17. The meeting noted the presentation and would resolve this together with Priority Area 4.

Agenda Item 5: Review and Update of the Task List of SCSTFRG

SCSTFRG Task List (WP08)

5.1. The SCSTFRG Task List as reviewed by the meeting is provided in Appendix F.

Agenda Item 6: Decisions/Recommendations to SEACG

6.1. Decision 1: The meeting agreed for the review of existing FLAS/FLOS operating within
the South China Sea with a view to enhancing efficiencies to be accorded as Priority Area 4 of the
SCSTFRG. Discussion on this Priority Area 4 would take place after the completion of action items
under Priority Area 1, 2 and 3.

6.2. Decision 2: The meeting agreed for SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 11,
M768 to be considered being removed from SEACG Task List. SCSTFRG would concentrate on the
reduction of longitudinal spacing on ATS route M768 from 80NM to 50NM based on RNP 10 with the
possibility of reducing it further to 30NM in the future.

6.3. Decision 3: The meeting agreed for SEA Route Review Implementation Plan Proposal 14
and 15, M771 and L642 to be considered being removed from SEACG Task List, and to concentrate
on route proposals SCS01 and SCS02 of the Asia/Pacific Region ATS Route Catalogue.

Agenda Item 7: Any Other Business

Performance-based Navigation (PBN) Airspace Design Workshop (IP02)

7.1. ICAO provided information about the PBN Airspace Design Workshop, which would be
conducted at ICAO Asia and Pacific Regional Sub-Office, Beijing, China, from 21 to 25 January 2019.
The objective of this workshop is to provide a thorough understanding of airspace design requirements;
focusing on PBN based solutions to ensure an efficient, flexible and dynamic airspace structure that
meets Stakeholders requirements in terms of safety, flight efficiency and capacity in a cost-effective
manner. States/Administration interested to participate in this workshop should complete the
Registration Form and send to the ICAO Asia and Pacific Regional Sub-Office no later than 7 January
2019.

Space Based ADS-B and Flow Management (IP06)

7.2. Aireon provided updates on the development and demonstration of the spaced based ADS-
B. It was noted that space based ADS-B could be one of the solution to fill the surveillance gaps within
the South China Sea.

Date and Venue of the Next Meeting

The next SCSTFRG meeting would be tentatively held in March 2019 at a location to be determined.
States/Administration considering hosting the SCSTFRG/8 were invited to contact the Secretariat.

Closing of the Meeting

The Chairman thanked the participants for their fruitful contributions at the meeting. However, it was
noted that the absence of some member States of this review group had slowed down the progress.
The Chairman would like to reiterate the importance of every member State of this group to be
represented appropriately at every meeting such that pressing issues in the group could be resolved
timely and effectively.

The Chairman congratulated all the participants for the successful completion of the meeting.
