AIRSPACE CLOSURE KUALA LUMPUR AND SINGAPORE FIRs

EXERCISE BERSAMA SHIELD 16
210001UTC to 281100UTC APRIL 2016

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Exercise BERSAMA SHIELD 16 (BS 16) will take place within the Kuala Lumpur
and Singapore FIRs from 210001UTC to 281100UTC April 2016. The Exercise
Airspace is split into four main Areas A to D, a Low Flying Area, specific Air
Corridors, two permanent Restricted Areas, and a Naval Firing / Air-to-Air
Engagement Area. These areas will be active according to planned periods of
intense aerial activities but released back to civil ATC when not required by
military exercise traffic. Civil and non-exercise military aircraft can continue to
operate unrestricted within the non-exercise airspace as set out in paragraph 7
except during periods of Special Activity set out in paragraph 3.

1.2 All exercise airspace will be active during the Air Defence Exercise (ADEX)
intense aerial activity which is limited to two 3-hour windows from 0100UTC to
0400UTC and 0530UTC to 0830UTC daily for the period of 21 to 28 April 2016.
All Exercise Airspace will be active during the ADEX. Thereafter, all exercise
airspace is released back to civil ATC except Area B, the Naval Firing / Air-to-Air
Engagement Area and the permanent Restricted Areas. Area B and the Naval
Firing / Air-to-Air Engagement Area will be released separately according to
planned exercise activity.

1.3 Special Activity will take place between 270315UTC and 270345UTC April 2016.
This activity will impose additional restrictions on air activity in the vicinity of
Singapore Changi Airport. Further details on both ADEX and Special Activity
restrictions are provided at paragraph 3.

2. EXERCISE AIRSPACE

2.1 Headquarters Integrated Area Defence System (HQIADS) under the Five Power
Defence Arrangements (FPDA) shall be the coordinating authority for the
exercise airspace. Outside the ADEX windows, HQIADS will release Area B to
the relevant civil aviation authorities when not required for exercise purposes.

5 REQUEST FOR CLEARANCES INTO EXERCISE AIRSPACE

5.1 Civil and non-exercise aircraft operating into and out of airports in Peninsular
Malaysia and Singapore via established ATS routes which intend to operate in
the active exercise areas, shall be permitted to operate subject to prior
coordination. Pilots of such flights shall conform strictly to the ATC clearances
issued before entering the active exercise areas. Any clearance into the exercise
area will automatically expire if the aircraft cannot remain within 10 minutes of the
flight planned ETDs and ETAs.

5.2 Civil and non-exercise aircraft requiring clearance into the exercise airspace
should submit a flight plan and inform BS 16 Airspace Cell at HQIADS and
SATCC at least six hours prior to departure. Submission of flight plan, either by
email or fax, will be via the relevant AIS office / operator. The Airspace Cell will
process these request(s) and endeavour to approve the flight plan or provide a
de-conflicted slot time. BS 16 Airspace Cell will then pass this information to the
operator and SATCC for approval / rejection dissemination. Any queries should
be directed to the BS 16 Airspace Cell at HQIADS.

5.3 In the event that the request for clearance into the exercise airspace has been
approved by BS 16 Airspace Cell, operator shall enter this information under item
18 OTHER INFORMATION “RMK/BS16A” when submitting actual flight plan.

6 INTERCEPTION AND IDENTIFICATION OF NON-EXERCISE AIRCRAFT

6.1 All non-exercise SSR transponder-equipped aircraft when operating in the Kuala
Lumpur and Singapore FIRs during the exercise period shall have their
transponders set to their allocated SSR codes, or if a code has not been
allocated, they should set Mode 3/A Code 2000.

6.2 Civil and non-exercise military aircraft entering or transiting the active exercise
areas may be intercepted for the purpose of identification. An aircraft which is
intercepted by another aircraft shall act in accordance to the instructions
published in the AIPs (Malaysia page ENR 1.12 / Singapore page ENR 1.12).

6.3 Civil and non-exercise military aircraft experiencing an emergency that

necessitates them entering an active exercise area should immediately advise
the appropriate ATC agency so that necessary action can be taken to co-ordinate
a safe entry into the area.
