ENGINE HAZARD
JET BLAST PRECAUTIONS
•7.5M from the
Front
•46M from the
behind (A-320)
•76M from the
behind (B-747)
ENGINE SUCTION/INGESTION & BLAST
DANGER ZONES AROUND A/C
Personnel and vehicles
shall give way to aircraft at
all times whether the
aircraft is taxiing or on
tow. The picture provides
a guide to the safety
distances where vehicles
or personnel shall
maintain from a taxing
aircraft
AFFECT OF JET BLAST
Jet engines force air
through the engine and
use thrust to maneouver.
Do not walk or drive
behind an aircraft that
has engines running, as
the Jet blast is
considerable and
dangerous. Injuries have
occurred due to debris
blown by jet blast.
Affect of Jet Blast
A jet engine produces a blast of
hot air strong enough to knock
you over, burn you, even turn
over a vehicle.
At 25 feet behind the engine.
Jet blast may reach to speed of
590 mph and a temperature of
370 degrees Fahrenheit. Even
at 100 feet behind the engine,
jet blast may still be up to 95
mph and about 40 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Jet Blast ingestion
stay clear of jet engine
intakes. Many people
have been killed or
severely injured as a
result of being sucked
into an operating
engine.
PRECAUTION ON A/C REFUELLING
PRECAUTION ON A/C REFUELLING
In the event of fuel or Combustible
material spill, immediately notify to
Apron Control. Also warn the pilot of
aircraft in the vicinity of the spill.
Valves shall be shut down and the
dispensing vehicle shall remain in
place until the arrival of fire
protection vehicles. Engine of the
dispensing vehicle shall remain ON
if it running or remain OFF if it is off,
until the Fire Incharge orders to
move. In no event shall dispensing
operations resume until authorized
by the fire protection incharge.
Aircraft Refueling Incident
•Maintain a distance of 15M
from the aircraft being
refuelled
•Do not switch off/on your
vehicle
•Refueller/Dispenser have
right of clear exit

GLIDEPATH ANTENNA
CAT- III PROTECTED ATEA LOCALIZER ANTENNA
An area of defined
dimensions about the
localizer and glide path
antennas where aircraft and
vehicles are excluded during
all ILS operations. Their
presence within the defined
area will cause unacceptable
disturbance to the ILS
signal. This area extends to
1000 ft on ‘X’ axis and 400 ft
on ‘Y’ axis from the centre
of the localizer array.

some taxiway/taxiway intersections. The purpose of the marking is to provide
wing tip clearance for taxiing aircraft. Pilots should stop prior to the marking
when instructed to hold short of the intersection by ATC. See next slide for
further details
HOLDING MARKING FOR A/C
