1. LIGHT AIRCRAFT TRAINING AREAS
1.1 The airspaces designated as Light Aircraft Training Areas are for Local Flying and Training purposes. Flights are to be conducted during DAYLIGHT hours and in VMC ONLY. The Training Areas are uncontrolled airspaces. It will be the responsibility of pilots to maintain adequate separation with other aircraft including those operating in the Seletar and Sembawang aerodrome circuits. All aircraft are to operate strictly within the designated areas and not to stray out of the areas or intrude into adjacent controlled airspaces.
1.2 Aerobatics and functional check flights are prohibited in Light Aircraft Training Areas A, B and C.
1.3 The provision of FIS is the responsibility of Paya Lebar Approach. However, due to the nature of training operations carried out, position and altitude of aircraft will not be made available. The only information that can be provided to pilots will be the number of REPORTED aircraft within the areas concerned.
1.4 On receipt of the relevant information, it shall be the responsibility of the pilot to decide whether his intended flight can be carried out safely in view of the prevailing air traffic.
1.5 To enable Paya Lebar Approach to maintain an accurate record of aircraft operating in the areas and to disseminate up-to-date information, all pilots must report entering and leaving the Training Areas to Paya Lebar Approach.
1.6 Pilots of all aircraft operating within the areas are required to keep a listening watch on the appropriate Paya Lebar Approach VHF/RT control frequency 127.7 MHz.
1.7 All flights in the Training Areas are to be conducted on Singapore QNH. This value can be obtained from Paya Lebar Approach.
1.8 In the interest of flight safety, aircraft operating in Light Aircraft Training Area A are advised to make a broadcast on the controlling frequency specifying their callsign and position when climbing or descending through 2,000ft.

| (Training and Local Flying) All the airspace contained within the boundaries bounded by the following: 012650N 1034619E @ (Woodlands Customs Checkpoint) (a) 012249N 1034540E @ (cross-road junction of Upper Bukit Timah Road and Bukit Panjang Road/Choa Chu Kang Road) (b) 012100N 1034654E @ (Bukit Timah) (c) 012232N 1035016E @ (MayflowerGarden) (d) 012327N 1034922E @ (Sembawang ATZ bdry) and along the bdry of Sembawang ATZ (e) 012714N 1034752E @ (Admiralty Road West/Attap Valley Road) (f) 012650N 1034619E @ (Woodlands Customs Checkpoint) (a) | 4,500ft ALT GND 3,500ft ALT 2,000ft ALT Maximum Usable ALT: 4,000ft | # Above Transit Channel (see chart ENR3.5-3) @ Closest Visual Reference Point (see chart ENR 5.1-9) Day light hour and in VMC only |
| LIGHT AIRCRAFT TRAINING AREA A (EAST) | To enable aircraft on ILS for landing into WSSL to carry out missed approach safely and efficiently, Light Aircraft Training Area A would be temporarily segregated into Area A (East) and Area A (West). When instructed, all aircraft operating in Light Aircraft Training Area A are to vacate the Area A (East) and operate only in Area A (West) or operate in the other Light Aircraft Training Areas B or C. Whenever there is an aircraft on ILS for landing into WSSL, Light Aircraft Training Area A (East) will temporarily be designated as Class D airspace to facilitate the nominal path for the missed approach aircraft. | |
