3.1.1                   Standard: Determining Critical Aircraft

3.1.1.1              Each aerodrome must be categorised in accordance with the following table.

3.1.1.2              A figure of 700 movements of the busiest consecutive three-months of the preceding 12 months is used as the benchmark.

3.1.1.3              Determining frequency of operation for an aircraft type is called a movement which is either a take-off or a landing.

3.1.1.4              The aerodrome category for ARFFS is calculated on the overall length of the longest aircraft normally using the aerodrome and the maximum width of the fuselage.
