## Fixed-Wing Operations
### VFR Inbound Procedures
### VFR Arrivals
VFR aircraft will report inbound at BOAT, POWR, OAKF or RUSS at `A015`. JT ADC will instruct aircraft to maintain `A015` or remain outside the control zone (workload permitting). Aircraft will then report again at ADWD when inbound from BOAT or POWR, or FDL when inbound from OAKF or RUSS. They should then be instructed to join the circuit as below:

### VFR Outbound Procedures
### VFR Departures
VFR aircraft should report ready to **JT ADC** with their departure intentions. A takeoff clearance constitutes a clearance to depart the zone by extending the pilot's requested leg of the circuit. Aircraft departing the zone into class G airspace will transfer to area frequency upon leaving the zone, **no explicit frequency transfer is given to these aircraft**.

Aircraft departing a leg of the circuit will climb to and maintain the following levels until clear of the zone:

## IFR Inbound Procedures
Aircraft arriving from the Perth Class C in VMC will track via CNB. These aircraft will contract **JT ADC** approaching CNB and will be issued circuit joining instructions.
Aircraft in IMC will track inbound via an instrument approach.
**PH TCU** will coordinate all IFR arrivals in accordance with coordination procedures.

## Helicopter Operations
### General
Unless otherwise depicted in the `ERSA FAC YPJT`, all helicopters must comply with fixed wing procedures.

### Circuits
Circuits are conducted within the lateral confines of the fixed-wing circuit at `A008`, in the same direction as the current runway config. The termination point of the circuit is the Main Pad.


## ATIS
### Runway Nomination
The ATIS must indicate the current runway config and nominate what each parallel runway is being used for. The northern runway (06L/24R) is primarily used for VFR arrivals and departures, the southern runway (06R/24L) for circuit training and departures via `SHOP`, and the cross runway (12/30) for arrivals/departures when weather is unsuitable for parallel rwunay operations.
