Make the instrument approach charts analogous with air traffic control procedures or introduce radar information in control towers at procedural control aerodromes

When it comes to Pori aerodrome’s instrument approach charts, the fixes for different approach methods are only required to be reported upon at the request of the air traffic controller. Nonetheless, the aerodrome’s approach control is based on procedural control, which always requires up-to-date positional and altitude information. Considering the present volume of air traffic it is also important to minimise radio traffic.

The investigation commission recommends that Finavia Corporation either make the instrument approach charts analogous with air traffic control procedures, or introduce radar information in control towers at procedural control aerodromes corresponding to Pori.
