LHDC AD 2.20 LOCAL AERODROME REGULATIONS
One aircraft stand on the APRON is permitted to be used by only one aircraft at the same time.
During landing or take-off of aeroplanes the maximum permissible crosswind component shall not exceed 18 KT in the case of aeroplanes whose reference field length is 1 500 M or over, except when poor runway braking action owing to an insufficient longitudinal coefficient of friction is experienced, in those cases the crosswind component shall not exceed 11 KT.
During landing or take-off aeroplanes shall reduce the value of their landing or take-off weights by 10% compared to the declared distances published (LHDC AD 2.13).
The maximum aircraft taxi speed on the APRON and TWYs is 55 km/h (30 kts). After sunset, the maximum aircraft taxiing speed on the APRON should be reduced to 28 km/h (15 kts).
The maximum thrust a pilot may apply on the apron is the thrust required for taxiing while parking an arriving aircraft or taxiing a departing aircraft from the aircraft stand.
Before an aircraft may commence the start-up of engines, the pilot must indicate the instructions of the connected marshaller. In case of no ground-cockpit connection, visual signals shall be applied to pass information and warnings. Visual signals provided by the Marshaller during start-up are in line with those of ICAO Annex 2 Appendix 1, Marshalling Signals. The start-up procedure shall only be initiated on the instruction of the marshaller present. In case of multi-engine aircraft, separate approval to start-up should be requested for each engine from the marshaller. If the pilot is unable to get in contact with the marshaller, the pilot shall inform the AFIS of this issue and wait until marshaller assistance is provided.
LHDC AD 2.21 NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES
1. General
Noise abatement procedures are designed to avoid excessive aircraft noise in the areas adjacent to the airport and in the areas overflown during take off and landing.
2. Noise preferential runway
Taking into consideration the prevailing weather conditions, runway 04R is used for landing when there is a tailwind component of not more than 5 KT in the RWY direction. The displaced threshold on RWY 22L is also used for landing for noise abatement purposes. For noise protection reasons, RWY 22L is to be used for take-off, except if this is not recommended by the pilot of the aircraft due to foreseeable reasons (meteorological or aviation safety).
For a departure from runway direction 04R, until 2000 FT AGL is reached a left turn is PROHIBITED. Flying with below 2 000 FT AGL over Debrecen is PROHIBITED except when following a take-off or landing procedure.
3. RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF AUXILIARY POWER UNIT (APU)
Operation of APU shall be started at the earliest 30 minutes prior to departure and stopped at the latest within 10 minutes of arrival on stands. The use of APU during ACFT maintenance shall be restricted to a minimum duration.
4. RULES FOR TRAINING, CALIBRATION AND TECHNICAL TEST FLIGHTS
Training, calibration and technical test flights can only be performed at
- weekdays: 0700 - 1700 (0600 - 1600). The visual and non-visual navigation aids calibration and test flights can be performed 0700 - 2100 (0600 - 2000);
- weekends and public holidays: 0900 - 1500 (0800 - 1400).
NVFR training flights can be performed in FEB and NOV until 1900.
Prior request for technical test or training flight operations must be submitted to the airport (OPS) (ops@debrecenairport.com) at least 48 hours before the planned flight. The request must contain
- the planned date and time of the technical test or training flight operation;
- the type, reg and call sign of a/c.
The airport (OPS) informs the flight operator of the approval or refusal of the submitted flight request.
LHDC AD 2.22 FLIGHT PROCEDURES
1. GENERAL
Visual circling in the NW sector of RWY 04R/22L is prohibited for speed category C and D aircraft.
Conducting training flights are permitted only after prior coordination with the airport (OPS) (ops@debrecenairport.com) and AFIS (afis@debrecenairport.com).
Training flights shall give way to flights with commercial or business purposes.
It is prohibited to conduct training flights during calibration flights.
Pilot indicating intention to carry out a departure or arrival procedure is prohibited to cross the runway holding position or the runway threshold on its final approach until the preceding departing aircraft has crossed the end of the runway-in-use and has started a turn, or until preceding landing aircraft or ground vehicle has left the runway-in-use;has completed take-off, or until preceding landing aircraft or ground vehicle has left the runway-in-use; and AFIS has given “RUNWAY FREE” information to the pilot indicating intention to carry out a departure or arrival procedure.
1.1 Procedures for VFR flights
Traffic Pattern:
- Left-hand traffic pattern for RWY 22L
- Right-hand traffic pattern for RWY 04R

VFR flights approaching from uncontrolled airspace are required to enter DEBRECEN TIZ1/TIZ2/TIZ3 via the designated reporting points, unless otherwise informed.
The holding procedure has to be carried out on information of AFIS over the designated reporting points or other point identifiable by the pilot.
2. Procedures for flights during the operation of aerodrome flight information service (AFIS)
2.1 IFR flights
2.1.1 Departing aircraft
The IFR flights entering controlled airspace after departure shall obtain en route clearance before take-off.
In standard circumstances, en route clearance will be delivered by AFIS on the parking stand after start-up.
Departing aircraft have to follow the procedures included in the en route clearance given before take-off.
2.1.2 Standard Instrument Departure (SID)
SIDs are published in part AD 2-LHDC-SIDs
The departure procedures in use are based on those contained in ICAO Procedures for Air Navigation Services - Aircraft Operations (Doc 8168, OPS/611 (PANS OPS)).
2.1.3 Instrument approach procedures
The IAPs are published on IACs in part AD 2-LHDC.
2.2 VFR flights
2.2.1 Arrival
Contact shall be established with AFIS prior to reaching the area boundary;
AFIS provides information about aerodrome local traffic, the ”Traffic circuit” available, as well as conditions of approach and landing.
When instrument approach is in progress all VFR aircraft operating within the TIZ1, TIZ2 and TIZ3 will be advised to land or hold outside Debrecen TIZ1, TIZ2 and TIZ3.
LHDC AD 2.23 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1. Ground Handling Organisations
Ground handling organisations operate at Debrecen International Airport:

2. Supervision of the aerodrome
Runway state information and other related information of direct operational significance will be distributed to operators and services concerned either by NOTAM or SNOWTAM as appropriate.
3. Bird flocks and bird migrations
The size of flocks of birds living near Debrecen International Airport varies with seasons. Danger of collision somewhat increases in JUN-AUG when the new generation leave their nests. Bird migrations occur, depending on weather conditions, in FEB-MAR and in NOV-DEC. Between MAR and OCT depending on weather conditions, gulls fly through the airspace in flocks of several hundreds, and settle temporarily on the airfield. Between OCT and MAR, also depending on weather conditions, gulls fly through the airspace of the airport in flocks of several dozens. Between NOV and FEB rooks in flocks of several hundreds migrate through the airspace of the airport.
3.1 Bird Watch and Scaring Service
