5.5.2  Paragliding and hang gliding in the airspace of the Slovak Republic

Conditions and procedures for performance of the paragliding and hang gliding in the airspace of the Slovak Republic are defined by the Directive LZ 1 issued by the Flight Amateur Association of the Slovak Republic.

5.5.2.1  Performance of the paragliding and hang gliding
5.5.2.1.1 Areas marked by the paragliding and hang gliding symbol

For the areas listed in the para. ENR 5.5.2.2 table, the chart symbol of the paragliding and hang gliding means navigation warning for performance of the paragliding and hang gliding in the area defined as circle radius 1,5 NM with centre at middle point of take-off area and vertically from GND to the upper limit of the airspace class G.

When the paragliding and hang gliding area interferes into the airspace class C or D, prohibited area (P), restricted area (R), danger area (D), temporary segregated area (TSA) or temporary reserved airspace (TRA), this area is limited by horizontal limits of such airspaces/areas at the time of their activation.

This navigation warning is valid from BMCT to EECT all year round. The paragliding and hang gliding chart symbol is displayed also in the Aeronautical Chart - ICAO 1 : 500 000 and on the Aerial Sporting and Recreational Activities Index Chart.

5.5.2.1.2 Due to increased safety requirements pilots are recommended to fly around the paragliding and hang gliding areas at least 1 NM outside the published area.
5.5.2.2 In the table, there are the take-off areas with the paragliding and hang gliding symbol located within an uncontrolled airspace, where the paragliding and hang gliding flights may be expected.

5.5.3  Glider flights in the airspace of the Slovak Republic

5.5.3.1  Flights within airspace classes C and D

Within airspace classes C and D airspace, glider flights without two-way radio contact with the appropriate ATC unit are forbidden.

5.5.3.2  Areas dedicated to glider flights are:

  1. Areas of defined lateral and vertical limits, within airspace classes C or D. Once activated, the airspace class within the area dedicated to glider flights changes to class G. Airspace users are required to monitor a specified frequency.

  2. The areas are mainly used by gliders (including hang-gliders and paragliders) and their tow aircraft.

  3. Other flights (including parachute descents) may enter the areas, however increased glider activity should be expected. Flight information service and alerting service to known traffic will be provided by appropriate ATS unit.

  4. Altimeter setting for respective areas is stated in para. ENR 5.5.3.4.

5.5.3.3  Activation of areas dedicated to glider flights
5.5.3.3.1  Areas activated by phone

Request to activate specified area dedicated to glider flights shall be passed from the designated user to the appropriate ATC unit by phone, stating his name, phone number on which the person will be available, name of the area and requested period of activation. Activation is subject to approval of appropriate ATC unit. Area dedicated to glider flights is activated for the time period specified in the approval issued by appropriate ATC unit. Time of activation can be changed on the request of the designated user and after approval of appropriate ATC unit. After obtaining the activation approval from appropriate ATC unit, as well as with any change, the designated user is obliged to inform military AMC (TEL: +421/960/46 22 31, +421/45/532 18 17).

Note: Designated user will provide the list of persons authorized to activate respective areas to LPS SR, š. p.

5.5.3.3.2  Areas activated according to prior coordination

Request to activate specified Area dedicated to glider flights shall be passed from the dedicated user on regular coordination meeting of the airspace users. Period of activation will be published in NOTAM after approval of the appropriate ATS authority. In the given day of planned activation, designated user shall pass information about real time of activation according to actual demand to the appropriate ATC and AMC unit by phone. Real time of activation must be within in period of planned activation.

Note: Area dedicated to glider flights is considered as activated according to real time of activation.
