A-l. PROHIBITED AREA
A-l.1 No building or structure shall be constructed or erected, or no tree shall be planted, on any land within the limits specified in A-l.2 and A-l.3 in respect of the aerodromes listed in A-3 and in respect of the aerodrome at Trivandrum.
A - l . 2 For the Listed in 3 These requirements shall be applicable for the land enclosed in approach funnels of the runway with a maximum distance of 360 m measured each runway and along the extended centre line of the runway. For the purpose of this clause, the requirements of approach funnel and an instrument runway shall be as given in A-1.2.1 to A-1.2.3.
A-1.2.1 Approach funnel in the case
of an
instrument runway means the area in the shape of an trapezium having the longer parallel side 4800 long (2400 m on either side of the extended centre line of the runway) and smaller parallel side 300 m long (150 m on either side of the extended centreA

line of the runway) where the smaller and longer parallel sides are placed at a distance of 60 m and I5 060 m. respectively, from the end of the runway and at right angles to the extended centre line.
A-f In the case of a non-instrument run-way, the approach funnel means the area in the shape an isosceles trapezium having the longer parallel side 1800 m long (900 m on either side of the extended centre line of the runway) and smaller parallel side 180 m long (90 m on either side of the extended centre line of the runway), where the smaller and longer parallel sides are placed at a distance of 60 m and 6540 m, respectively, from the end of the runway and at right angles to the extended centre line. Thereafter, the trapezium is fol-lowed by a contiguous rectangular area of that width for the remainder of the length up to a
distance of 15 060 m from the end of the runway.
A-1.2.3 An instrument runway is a runway served by visual and non-visual aid or aids providing at least directional guidance ade-quate for a straight in approach and intended for the operation of aircraft using instrument approach procedures.
For the Aerodrome at Trivandrum These requirements shall be applicable for the land enclosed in approach funnels of all run-w a y s run-w i t h a m a x i m u m d i s t a n c e o f 304.80 m, measured from each runway and along extended centre line of the runway, and the land enclosed in a belt of 30.48 m width outside the operational boundary of the drome. For the purpose of this clause, the requirements of approach funnel and opera-tional boundary shall be as given in A-1.3.1 and A-1.3.2.
A-l.3 Approach funnel means the area in the shape of an isosceles trapezium having the l o n g e r p a r a l l e l s i d e o f
(2 362.2 m on either side of the extended centre line of the runway) and smaller parallel side of 152.4 m (76.2 m on either side of the extended centre line of the runway) where the smaller and longer parallel sides are placed at a dis-tance of 60.9 m and 15301 m, respectively, from the end of the runway and at right angles to the extended centre line.
A-f..?.? Operational boundary means an area enclosed between parallel lines at distance of 152.4 m on either side of the centre line of the runways or 30.4 m from the boundary fencing of the aerodrome, is greater.
A-2. HEIGHT RESTRICTION
A-2.1 For the Aerodromes Listed in A-3 No building or structure higher than the
height specified in Tables 5 and 6 shall be constructed or erected, or no tree which is likely to grow or ordinarily grows higher than the height specified in the Tables 5 and 6, shall be planted, on any land within a radius of 20 km from ARP of the aerodromes listed in A-3, excluding the land covered by A-1.2.
