Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This instrument temporarily exempted air traffic services from certain Manual of Standards separation requirements so they could clear Jetstar Boeing 787‑8 and Airbus A321 aircraft (ARN 510654) to perform land‑and‑hold‑short operations (LAHSO). Participation was voluntary for pilots and limited to operations at the ATS provider’s facility. The three‑year trial (1 Oct 2015–30 Sep 2018) aimed to boost runway efficiency for modern, high‑performance jets while preserving safety through pilot discretion.
