Collision hazard information

 

When an identified controlled flight is observed to be on a conflicting path with an unknown aircraft deemed to constitute a collision hazard, the controlled flight shall, whenever practicable:

a) be informed of the unknown aircraft, if so requested by the controlled flight or, if in the opinion of the radar controller the situation warrants, a course of avoiding action should be suggested;

b) be notified when the conflict no longer exists. When an identified IFR flight operating outside controlled airspace is observed to be on a conflicting path with another aircraft, it should:

a) be informed as to the need for collision avoidance action to be initiated, if so requested by the situation warrants, a course of avoiding action should be suggested;

b) be notified when the conflict no longer exists.

 

REMEMBER! Information about traffic on a conflicting path should be given in the following form: 1) bearing of the conflicting traffic in the terms of the 12-hour clock; 2) distance from the conflicting traffic; 3) direction of flight of the conflicting traffic; 4) type of the aircraft and flight level.
