4.75.30 State the operating considerations relating to operating an aircraft over or close to temporary hazards/airspace. AIP ENR

 Entry to a Temporary Hazard Zone can be authorised by the administering authority.

  

4.75.28 State the operating considerations relating to operating an aircraft in a common frequency zone (CFZ). AIP ENR

•  When operating an aircraft in a Common Frequency Zone this has a similar function as as MBZ,
• CFZ is uncontrolled airspace

• Procedures are not mandatory and you should transmit position and intention on the published frequency at regular intervals and switch on aircraft lights

  .

  

  

  

4.75.26 State the restrictions and operating considerations relating to operating an aircraft in a designated low flying zone (LFZ). CAR 91 & AIP ENR

•  Low Flying Zones are restricted to pilots receiving dual instruction or hold Instructor Rating and have been authorised/ briefed on the boundaries and know the entry and exit method

• In a low Flying Zone pilots must broadcast intentions and estimated time in the area before entering and report when vacating the area

• In a Low Flying Zone you must maintain a continuous listening watch

• Dual low flying can be conducted with visibility no less than 1500 metres and no passengers on board

    

4.75.24 State the restrictions and operating considerations relating to operating an aircraft in a danger area. CAR 91 & AIP ENR

•  You can fly through a Danger Zone only after you have obtained all relevant information regarding its use and when you have satisfied yourself that aircraft safety will not be affected.

  

4.75.22 State the restrictions and operating considerations relating to operating an aircraft in a volcanic hazard zone (VHZ). CAR 91 & AIP ENR

• Flights through a Volcanic Hazard Zone are permitted only during daylight hours and only in VMC
• Flights at night and in IMC are prohibited
• In VFR flight no clearance is required to fly through VHZ
• In a Volcanic Hazard Zone as alert levels increase, so the radius of the zone will increase accordingly.

 

  

4.75.20 State the restrictions and operating considerations relating to operating an aircraft in a mandatory broadcast zone (MBZ). CAR 91 & AIP ENR

MBZs are established to provide increased protection to aircraft in
areas of uncontrolled airspace where high density or special operations
may occur. 

A pilot is required to broadcast position and intention reports on a
specified frequency on entry, when joining an aerodrome traffic circuit,
prior to entering a runway, and at regular specified intervals when
operating within the MBZ. 

As an extra safety measure, landing lights or anti collision lights
must be used when fitted. 

Non-radio (NORDO) aircraft must not enter a MBZ, unless they have
another station, such as an ATS unit or an aircraft, broadcasting the
required reports on their behalf.

4.75.18 State the restrictions on operating an aircraft in a military operating area (MOA). CAR 91 & AIP ENR

Military operating areas (MOA) are established to encompass
intensive military operations, including live firing. 

Within any portion of an
active MOA within NZ territory, an entry approval is required prior to entry
from the designated administering authority in the same manner as a
restricted area. 

Outside NZ territory (beyond the 12 NM limit) pilots of NZ
registered aircraft must also receive an entry approval prior to entry. 

Non-NZ registered aircraft are not subject to entry control but should
nevertheless identify their operation to the administering authority in the
interests of aviation safety.

4.75.16 State the restrictions on operating an aircraft in a restricted area. CAR 91 & AIP ENR

Restricted areas are established within NZ sovereign territory (up to
12 nautical miles from the coastline) in the public interest, aviation safety
or aviation security, or for national security. 

The public interest includes
areas protected for conservation (fauna) purposes, and special events. 

Safety reasons include areas prescribed for police or search and rescue
operations. 

Aircraft are not prohibited from operating within a restricted area,
but may only enter an active restricted area with the prior approval of the
designated administering authority. Pilots must not enter an active
restricted area in anticipation of entry approval. Restricted areas are
depicted on charts with the designation R (followed by a number), as the
prefix NZ is omitted on aeronautical charts to reduce clutter

4.75.14 Describe the status of controlled airspace when ATC go off duty. AIP GEN

When control areas and zones are not operative, the rules and procedures for
Class G airspace apply.

4.75.12 Describe Visual Reporting Points.

The Director may designate visual reporting points for the purpose
of—

(1) facilitating the requirements of air traffic services for
information regarding the progress of aircraft in flight; or

(2) facilitating the safe conduct of flight by visual reference. 

The Director must ensure that visual reporting points;

(1) are based on prominent geographical features; and

(2) are identified by names or designators that—
(i) are easily recognisable in voice communications; and

(ii) will not be confused with those of other reporting points
in the same general area; and

(iii) do not create confusion with other communications
exchanged between pilots and between air traffic services
and pilots.
