ADME 2.2 LAND AND HOLD SHORT OPERATIONS (LAHSO)

 

IFATCA Policy is:

IFATCA opposes LAHSO unless the following concerns have been satisfactorily addressed:

  • The lack of exact requirements for what are acceptable airport and runway configurations;
  • The “hold short point” is not always easily identifiable to the pilots.
  • An aircraft going around after touch-down, during the rollout, or even after “floating” along the runway without the pilot managing to get it down for whatever reason could result in passing “through” rather than above the intersection.
  • Increase in controller workload as a result of controllers having to pass LAHSO-specific information to the pilot;
  • Controllers continually having to adjust between LAHSO and non-LAHSO operations, based on pilots’ and airline ability to participate in LAHSO operations; and
  • Operational difficulties associated with LAHSO capable aircraft renouncing the status at a late stage.
