Ground Movements

Parking Positions

Hohn consists of multiple ramps. Hohn Tower should only instruct aircraft to taxi to the ramp.

Taxi Instructions

Hohn Tower doesn’t need to provide detailed taxi instructions to military traffic if there is no conflicting traffic. Visitors from other squadrons (home squadron is ...) or civilian traffic should receive full taxi instructions. 

Departing Traffic

Hohn Tower should inform departing traffic about current weather conditions. In the case of military traffic, the colour code is sufficient.

Hohn Tower shall only issue IFR clearances after coordination with EDWW sector Eider East (EIDE)!

Every IFR departure from ETNH requires a departure release from both ETNH APP and Bremen Radar before issuing a takeoff clearance!

SID-Assignments
  • Operational Instrument Departures (OIDs) are used (NH108 and NH126), initial climb by ATC.

Arriving Traffic

Approaches Types

Wittmundhafen is equipped with a TACAN and RNP approach onto runway 08 and an ILS, RNP and TACAN approach onto runway 26. 

There are also PAR and SRA approaches available on both runways.
Hohn Precision will maintain Radio contact with the aircraft performing a PAR or SAR until landed. Hohn Tower should inform Hohn Precision if the runway is clear and the aircraft performing the PAR/SRA is cleared to land.

Hohn Tower shall inform Schleswig Tower about the activation and closure of CTR Hohn.
