Departure Procedures
Preferred runways Departure preferred runways are as follows: 01, 19. ATC Clearance All flights shall leave TMA Olsztyn via one of the following fixes:
NIVON, UDROV, LUSUL
SID name shall not be put in the flight plan.
All SIDs at Olsztyn are RNP-1. In order to execute them, your aircraft has to be capable of area navigation (e.g. FMC, GPS, INS). If you are unable to perform it, or you are not sure about it, inform ATC before obtaining IFR clearance.
EPSY_TWR is the clearance delivery station for Olsztyn Airport. To get your IFR clearance, contact Mazury Tower not more than 30 minutes before Off Block Time only with your callsign and destination. Your clearance will contain: runway, assigned SID or other departure instructions, the initial climb, your squawk code and current weather information.
Please remember that currently we do not serve DCL/PDC clearance.
Taxi procedures There is only one taxiway leading to runway - TWY B.
Deicing is performed at stands.
Low Visibility Procedures (LVP) When RVR is less than 550 m and/or cloud ceiling is less than 200 ft Low Visibility Procedures are in operation.
During LVP for departure and landing only runway 01 should be used. Runway 19 can be used for departure on request.
Minimum RVR for departure is 150 m. Minimum RVR for arrival is 300 m.
Stands There are four stands (STD 1,2,3,4) in front of the terminal.
APN 2 is used by forest firefighting service, APN 3 is used for GA aviation aircrafts, APN 4 is used for emergency aircrafts.
Start-up, pushback and taxi Pushback is mandatory at all stands.
Start-up and pushback
Mazury Tower is responsible for all start-up, pushback and taxi. To ensure an adequate traffic flow, have your tow truck already connected when requesting pushback.
Taxi
Before requesting taxi prepare taxi charts for the aerodrome. This is very helpful for both pilots and controllers.
On runway 01 backtrack is mandatory.
To use whole lenght of runway 19 line up and backtrack is required.
Take-off and departure Prior to your departure, you should double check your FMC and the transponder: make sure you have the correct SID, your squawk code set and the transponder operating in Mode C. Be ready for departure upon reaching the holding point. In order to keep runway occupancy to a minimum, expect to receive an immediate takeoff clearance. ATC will assume every aircraft at the holding point is able to commence line up and take-off roll after clearance issued with no delay. If you are unable to comply with it, inform Mazury Tower before being number 1 in departure sequence.
It is very important to strictly adhere to your SID and initial climb until given further instructions! When contacting the new controller, you should listen for other traffic talking on frequency to not interrupt them. -
Arrival Procedures
Preferred runways Arrival preffered runways are as follows: 01, 19. Arrival procedures Entry to TMA Olsztyn shall be planned via one of the following entry fixes:
IBINO, UDROV, ARDUT.
Expect being assigned the correct STAR. As with SIDs, RNAV equipment is required.
If you are unable to follow the procedure, put it in your flight plan and inform the ACC controller on initial contact. You may expect being given a shortcut to SYN or MRA VOR and then perform instrument approach procedure.
The STARs only define the horizontal flight profile. Every level change (descent) has to be explicitly instructed by the ATC.
After being issued the approach clearance, the STAR shall be continued until established on final.
When traffic load permits, you may expect a shortcut to one of the points of the procedure.
TMA Olsztyn is a procedural airspace, which means that controller doesn't have a radar and won't be able to see you. To provide ATC service, pilots will be asked for position reports. This report should contain current altitude and distance to next waypoint. You can also provide information about your indicated airspeed (IAS).
Final approach AVAILABLE APPROACHES
RWY 01: ILS CAT I-II, RNP, VOR
RWY 19: RNP, VOR
During final approach it is advised to maintain speed of 160 kts or greater (if possible) until 4 NM DME. ATC may impose other speed restrictions.
Runway 01 should be vacated via TWY B. To vacate runway 19 backtrack is required.
Make sure to fully vacate the runway (cross the holding point) but hold short of the next taxiway in front of you. Remain on Tower frequency until further advised.

VFR Procedures
Procedures VFR flights in CTR OLSZTYN/Mazury are required to have a flight plan. Flights shall take place according to the published VFR routes. Shortcuts, other than published, are not permitted.
Constant (cruising) altitude and pattern altitude for VFR flights in CTR EPSY is 1500 ft. It is caused by dense buildings and high obstacles surrounding the airport. Flights shall not take place below that altitude. Flight above that altitude require coordination with APP or ACC controller (if online).
Descent below 1500 ft is permitted only in close vicinity of the airport, during published holding procedures over VFR reporting points, approaches and runway operations.
During high traffic load, aircraft in VFR flight may be instructed to hold on one of the holdings:
- on the east side of the aerodrome ECHO
- on the west side of the aerodrome WHISKEY
CTR OLSZTYN/Mazury is class D airspace.
