Sector in Red is the primary sector.

Sectorization Flow Chart

Description:
1. The primary “combined” radar position shall be DRE. No other sectors shall be staffed until the “combined” position is already in use.
2. Once DRE is in use, DRE may delegate a portion of its airspace to DRW. Thereafter, DRW may delegate a portion of its airspace to ARB.
3. Once ARB is in use, ARB may delegate a portion of its airspace to ARL. Thereafter, ARL may delegate a portion of its airspace to ARM.
4. Once ARM is in use, ARM may delegate a portion of its airspace to ARG. ARM/ARG are considered “final” radar positions and of the two ARM shall be opened first.
5. Once DRW is in use, DRW may delegate a portion of its airspace to SRD. Thereafter, SRD may delegate a portion of its airspace to SRK.
6. Once SRK is in use, SRK may delegate a portion of its airspace to SRS or SRN. Thereafter, SRN may delegate a portion of its airspace to SRV and SRP. SRV is dependent on SRN and therefore, SRV shall NOT be opened unless SRN is already in use. SRN assumes responsibility for SRV airspace when SRV is not in use.

NOTE: SRP is intended to be a “final” radar position for the SFB Airport and should only be used during high-volume traffic scenarios.

General Information

Handoffs: MCO ATCT is a radar tower. Radar handoffs shall be accomplished prior to aircraft entering MCO ATCT’s area of responsibility. Any other ATCTs within F11 shall not receive a radar handoff for arriving aircraft. All other internal and external handoffs shall be initiated as soon as the aircraft are clear of conflict.

VFR Aircraft: VFR Aircraft within the Orlando Class Bravo airspace shall ordinarily be kept below 5,000 feet and within the appropriate satellite radar position.

Departure Release: Unless otherwise coordinated, F11 shall give automatic departure releases to all traffic from MCO. All other airports within F11 shall request a departure release for traffic receiving radar services. Upon receipt of the departure release, the release shall remain valid for five (5) consecutive minutes. Upon issuance of the takeoff clearance, a rolling call notification message shall be sent to the appropriate F11 radar controller. This notification should include the callsign of the aircraft and the departure runway the aircraft is departing from.

Rolling Calls:MCO ATCT will ensure datatag auto acquires and will not send rolling calls to F11 departure controllers unless one of the following criteria is met:
a. The F11 departure controller requests rolling calls.
b. The departure scratchpads are not completed as per Chapter 7.1 of this SOP.
c. The departing aircraft is issued a departure heading not outlined in the MCO ATCT Standard Operating Procedures.

Runway Change Procedures: When changing runways, LC must verbally coordinate with the appropriate F11 position(s) for the last departure/arrival off the previously used runway and the first departure/arrival off the newly selected active runway(s). Notify F11 of the new runway configuration and last departure and arrivals. When notified by F11, stop all departures on the present configuration. When F11 is ready for the new configuration, F11 will notify LC. Upon completion of notification, departures may resume with the new configuration. Ensure ATIS has been updated to reflect the new configuration.

Simultaneous Approaches: Runway 36L/36R and Runway 18R/18L may not be used for simultaneous instrument approaches. The ATIS shall indicate at all times “Caution simultaneous approaches in use” prior to stating the arrival runways.

Departure Radar

General NOTAMsDRE- Departure Radar EastDRW- Departure Radar WestDiagram

In-trail spacing
Radar positions shall ensure aircraft have at least five nautical mile in-trail spacing, constant or increasing, when exiting the F11 airspace.

Missed Approach Procedure All aircraft will be instructed to climb to 3000 feet. Aircraft landing the west complex will be turned heading 270 and transferred to ARM (DRW if combined). Aircraft landing the east complex will be turned heading 090 and transferred to ARG (DRE if combined). Do not assign the published missed approach for IFR aircraft unless the pilot requests it and traffic allows, or it's requested by the F11 radar sectors. Radar handoff, controller coordination and voice handoffs should be initiated as soon as practical to the appropriate final controller.

Pre-arranged Coordination Procedures 1. MCO departures operating under the jurisdiction of either DRE or DRW (DR) may penetrate the depicted (see sections 3.10 and 3.11) ARL or ARB (Feeder) airspace without a pointout.
2. While utilizing PACP, DR must “quicklook” ARL and ARB sectors or otherwise display the full data block of aircraft under Feeder control.
3. DR is responsible for maintaining separation from AR aircraft and must not interfere with normal AR operations.
4. DR may climb, but not level aircraft within AR airspace.
5. DR must not utilize visual separation with AR aircraft without prior coordination with AR.
6. AR reserves the right to temporarily cancel the procedures outlined in this section for any reason.
