Flight Planning Keyword Manual KEYWORDS A CFP input consists of keywords, thus allowing the user to tailor each request to the exact requirements for a particular flight. The mandatory keywords for an ad-hoc flight plan are described in Section 3. All other keywords mentioned in this section are optional, but may be subject to combination restrictions. Any keyword combination restrictions are mentioned in the relevant text. 11.1 KEYWORDS: Basic Rules 1) Keywords can be either 1 or 3 characters long and must be followed by a hyphen (-) EXAMPLES: ALT- M- 2) The required input should be entered immediately after the hyphen, without leaving any blank spaces. EXAMPLES: ALT-EGLL M-TEST ONLY 3) Keywords may be formatted one per line. EXAMPLES: ALT-EGLL ETD-1615 FAL-330 4) Keywords may also be formatted with more than one per line, separated by a comma (,) or a dollar sign ($). Note: Care should be taken to ensure that keywords do not overrun the line length. An invalid keyword format error will be received if the line length is exceeded. EXAMPLES: ALT-EGLL,ETD-1615$FAL-330 ERROR MESSAGES: ***-INVALID KEYWORD ENTERED,MUST BEGIN XXX- OR M- 11.2 KEYWORDS: Categories To assist access to the online help facility, all available keywords are categorised within the following three character abbreviations: CATEGORY INDEX CATEGORY DESCRIPTION ACP Aircraft Performance Related ATC ATC Plan Related FUE Fuel Related GEN General Purpose MET Weather Related NAV Navigation Related SUM Summary Related The following index is in keyword alphabetical order: KWD DESCRIPTION CATEGORY AFT- AFTN Addressing ATC AFU- Uplift additional fuel (mandatory fuel: priority over payload) FUE ALT- Primary Alternate NAV AL2- 2nd Alternate NAV AL3- 3rd Alternate NAV ARM- Facility to add remarks in item 18 of the ATC plan ATC ARP- Enables the creation of an airport for use as origin, destination NAV or primary alternate ATC- Requests ICAO ATC plan ATC AUS- Request Australian AUSOT track NAV BAL- Specify a fixed amount of residual/dead fuel 1 FUE BLK- Exclude specific routes from optimisation NAV CAL- Cap cruise flight level ACP CBF- Climb fuel degradation factor ACP CID- Cost Index value ACP CPA- Cap flight level between destination and first alternate ACP CP2- Cap flight level between destination and second alternate ACP CP3- Cap flight level between destination and third alternate ACP CPN- City Pair Number NAV CPT- Captains name 1 GEN CRP- Cruise and descent mode selection for turboprop ACP CRZ- Cruise mode (LRC/Econ/Min Time) ACP CZF- Cruise fuel degradation factor ACP CZT- Cruise thrust limit temperature buffer ACP DMF- Departure manoeuvre fuel ACP DMT- Departure manoeuvre Time ACP DPP- Allows flight plan calculation based on decision point procedure FUE DRM- Dispatch Release Message 1 GEN DSP- Dispatcher's Name 1 GEN DTE- Specify date or statistical weather MET ECT- Specify routes for optimisation NAV EEP- Define ETOPS Entry & Exit airports & initiate calculation ACP of ETOPS Entry & ETOPS Exit times ENR- Specify multiple enroute alternates GEN EQP- Specify equipment in ITEM 10 of ICAO flight plan ATC EQT- Determine Equal Time Point SUM ERA- Enroute Alternate1 NAV ETA- Amend stored Estimated Time of Arrival MET ETD- Amend stored Estimated Time of Departure MET ETE- ETOPS keyword to provide fuel to first airport listed FUE ETP- Determine equal time point between specified FUE airports and access engine out data (ETOPS) ETX- As ETP, but adds computed critical fuel to the FUE flight plan calculation EXT- To specify a particular route name or number NAV FAA- Requests ICAO FAA domestic plan ATC FAL- Fix cruise flight level ACP FAX- Send facsimile of whole or component part of flight plan GEN FCD- Fuel cost at destination (Tankering) FUE FCO- Fuel cost at origin (Econ Cruise & Tankering) ACP FLT- Amendment of stored flight or service number GEN FMA- Override default cruise speed ACP FMT- Format specification (for use with RFP transaction) GEN FXH- Specify fixed flight level profile ACP FXM- Specify fixed speed flight plan profile ACP HDA- Holding height and time selection for alternate FUE HDB- Holding height and time selection at initial alternate FUE HDD- Holding height and time selection at final destination FUE HDR- Holding height and time selection at initial destination FUE HLD- Override normal holding fuel/time FUE HNL- Specify of Honolulu FTR NAV HOC- Hourly operating cost (Econ Cruise) ACP HRA- Holding race track adjustment factor FUE HTA- Holding ISA temperature correction factor FUE IAS- Indicated air speed/level ACP LTT- Request least time track non-flyable route between any 2 airportsNAV M- Plain text message line GEN MAD- Delivery address GEN MFU- Override maximum tanks weight FUE MOA- Minimum fuel overhead alternate FUE MOD- Minimum fuel overhead destination FUE MTF- Specify minimum fuel in tanks FUE MVD- Amend manoeuvering (inst.app) distance at destination ACP MVF- Specify destination manoeuvering fuel ACP MVT- Specify destination manoeuvering time ACP MZF- Override default maximum zero fuel weight ACP NAT- Specify North Atlantic Routing NAV NM1- Display crew names, NM1 – NM9 1 GEN NTM-Q Request route specific NOTAMs using customer defined filter GEN OAL- Override computed fuel/time value to (final) primary alternate FUE OAR- Override computed fuel/time value to (initial) primary alternate FUE OFC- Calculate routing over flight charges NAV OWE- Override stored operating weight empty (dry operating weight) ACP PAC- Request Pacific routing NAV PIC- Send ICAO ATC plan as separate Sitatex (Type-B) message ATC PLD- Specify payload ACP PNR- Find Point of no return 1 ACP PRF- Specify fixed flight level profile, overriding normal flight level separation rules.

Contact the SITA Helpdesk for further information. 11.3 KEYWORDS: Descriptions KEYWORD: AFT- PURPOSE: Permits customers to send a flight plan or ATC plan to AFTN (Aeronautical Fixed Telecommunications Network) addresses. FORMAT: AFT- EXAMPLES: 1) AFT-CFP/EGLLSOTX/EGLLXSUM Forward complete flight plan to all specified AFTN addresses. 2) AFT-SHP/EGLLSOTX/EGLLXSUM Forward short flight plan to all specified AFTN addresses. 3) AFT-ATC/EGLLSOTX/EGLLXSUM Forward ICAO ATC plan to all specified AFTN addresses. 4) AFT-AUTF/EGLLSITX Forward ICAO ATC plan to AFTN addresses obtained from the FIR file only. 5) AFT-AUTP/EGLLSITX Forward ICAO ATC plan to AFTN addresses pre-stored in the parameter file only. 6) AFT-AUTO/EGLLSITX Forward ICAO ATC plan to AFTN addresses obtained from the FIR and parameter file. Note: Removes any duplicate addresses. 7) AFT-AUT*/EGLLSITX/P * AFT-AUTO, AUTP or AUTF Attach AFTN addresses relevant to AUTF, AUTP, or AUTO input to flight plan. Addresses will also be stored in the RFP file. Note: Flight plan is not filed automatically if /P is added to the transaction. ERROR MESSAGES: AFT- ADDRESS NUMBER (V) IS INVALID AFT- AT LEAST ONE ADDRESS NEEDED OR TOO MANY ENTERED AFT- INVALID TYPE- (V) MUST BE CFP, SHP or ATC AFT- INVALID TYPE- AUT MUST BE CFP,ATC,SHP OR AUT* AFT- AT LEAST ONE ADDRESS NEEDED OR TOO MANY ENTERED AFT- AFT-AUTP CAN ONLY BE USED IF ATC HAS BEEN USED AFT- AFT-AUTF CAN ONLY BE USED IF ATC HAS BEEN USED AFT- AFT-AUTO CAN ONLY BE USED IF ATC HAS BEEN USED AFT- AFT-INPUT MUST BE AUT*/P FOR RETURNING ADDS TO ORIGIN AFT- AFT-ORIGIN ADDRESS MUST BE ENTERED IF AFT-AUTO IS USED ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: • Ensure that the first AFTN address is the originating address. • Delay and cancellation of ICAO ATC plans can also be initiated. For further details, see the RFP transaction in section 3 of the Flight Planning Reference manual. • For information on how to store AFTN addresses (via TypeB and/or QLLC) within the parameter file please refer to section 5 of the Flight Planning Reference manual. KEYWORD: AFU- PURPOSE: To request mandatory additional fuel FORMAT: AFU- Entered as weight value in units - maximum 6 digits EXAMPLE: AFU-15000 Request 15000 kgs/lbs of additional fuel ERROR MESSAGES: AFU- MUST BE NUMERIC, MAXIMUM 6 DIGITS AFU- ENTRY OF UNLIMITED ADDITIONAL FUEL IS INVALID THIS WOULD GIVE A NIL PAYLOAD CALCULATION AFU- EXCEEDS MAXIMUM TANK WT OF (V) FOR (V) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: • Additional fuel takes precedence over payload. I.e. AFU is mandatory. • An input of AFU-999999 would cause a NIL PAYLOAD calculation, as the effect is to request max fuel uplift subject to restrictions of structural limitations and volumetric capacity. Therefore, if AFU-999999 is entered, a validation error message is received. • To request the maximum possible extra fuel uplift, see keywords XFU- or TFU-.
