Controlling Unit for En-route Holding

PANS-AIM "ENR 3.6 En-route Holding" also requires as part of the conditional data for the AIP data set an:

7) indication of the controlling unit and its operating frequency.

The diagram below shows the AIXM classes, including the relevant data types, needed to encode that information:

A Service has to be encoded, either using the AirTrafficControlService class and/or the InformationService class.

The Service will be provided by a Unit. At least the Unit.name has to be provided.

The Service will use one or more RadioCommunicationChannel. At least the RadioCommunicationChannel.frequencyTransmission, and in case of bidirectional communication also the RadioCommunicationChannel.frequencyRecpetion has to be coded.

Subsequently, the encoded Service is related to the HoldingPattern it controls or concerns.

For more details and coding rules for the RadioCommunicationChannel see topic Radio Communication Channel [RCC].

Note

The controlling unit may also be derived from the airspace the holding is located in (in case the airspace has an assigned controlling unit).
