1B.2 Violation Reasons #

1B.2.1 #

Some of the possible scenarios that could result in a Violation being issued are listed below:

*Rendering issues may mean that aircraft did not see the other aircraft/buildings/objects, care should be taken to ensure that violations are only issued for aircraft that have blatantly done it on purpose

**Aircraft descending via VNAV may be issued a violation after a warning if they are unresponsive AND conflict with others

***Speed which results in rapid closure with other aircraft, loss of separation, or airspace disruption may be deemed “excessive”. Good judgment must{.red} be used

Fighter aircraft must not{.red} exceed 350KIAS when below 10,000ft and under ATC control, however pilots are expected to maintain a reasonable speed in the vicinity of other aircraft or when instructed to slow down by Controllers. Reporting for excessive speed can be issued when a lack of etiquette is shown. Standard speed restrictions for commercial aircraft also apply to military cargo aircraft (i.e. maximum 250 KIAS when below 10,000ft and under ATC control)

1B.2.2 #

A full list of the in-app options that can be selected for each position are listed below (including the Violation Level that the pilot will receive); however, it is important to note that Controllers must not{.red} pick a reason in order to decide if the pilot gets a Level 2 or Level 3 Violation. Each Violation is specifically paired with a Level, therefore Controllers must{.red} pick the correct reason and allow the system to automatically decide what Level Violation is issued:
