Ground
General Information
Ground Control Responsibilities
The Ground Controller is responsible for the movement of vehicles and aircraft on the airport movement areas except for the active runway(s)
ATIS
Ground control shall confirm all pilots have the current ATIS code PRIOR to commencing taxi to the active runway. This can be achieved by requesting the pilot "state the current ATIS code". The ATIS is the responsibility of the tower controller.
Active Runway Operations
Except for runway crossings, Ground Control must transfer communication to Local Control if a vehicle/aircraft is to operate on a runway. Coordination for all runway crossings must be accomplished by requesting permission from local control by stating "(Number of Aircraft) to cross Runway (#) at Taxiway (Letter). Once approved and crossing has been granted and the crossing has been observed, ground control must state to local control "Runway (#) crossing complete"
Intersection Departures
Ground Control must advise local control of all intersection departures verbally.
Opposite Direction Departures
Ground Control must coordinate and obtain approval from Local Control, prior to taxiing an aircraft to a runway for an opposite-direction departure.
Pushback and Startup
Push back into a controlled area: Aircraft shall be instructed: "Push and Start Approved, tail facing (direction)." The direction should keep the aircraft pointed in the direction the aircraft will taxi.
Push back will not enter a controlled area: Aircraft shall be instructed: "Push and start at pilot's discretion."
Runway Assignments
The runway assignment should be the runway closest to the position of the aircraft based on the Active Runway Assignments as selected by the Local Controller.
Taxi Operations
As the taxiways at Jacksonville are simple, there are no defined routes for taxi.
NOTE: Do not direct an aircraft leaving the runway to hold short of the parallel taxiway without prior approval from LC.
Transfer of Communication
Departing aircraft shall be instructed to contact the local control frequency upon or slightly before holding short the runway for departure. Local control has the option to have the pilot "monitor" the frequency. If a pilot is going to monitor, ground control must send a private message via the controller client of the aircraft with their callsign and runway.
Tower
Active Runway Selection
The active runway shall be determined based on wind and known factors that may affect the safety of takeoff/landing operations.
East Operations is designated as the calm wind runway.
- East Ops: Runway 8 and 14. It is recommended that VFR traffic remaining in the pattern use runway 8.
- West Ops: Runway 26 and 32. It is recommended that VFR traffic remaining in the pattern use runway 26.

Departure releases must be obtained if automatic releases are suspended by TRACON.
Departure Procedures
LC will provide separation for aircraft in the LC airspace. LC shall provide initial radar separation between successive departures.

Arrival Procedures
J has control for turns and descent at or below 5,000 feet and within 10 miles of E airspace. E shall provide final approaches to JAX for Runway 32 when J is not staffed.
Responsibility
Provide overflight services and approach sequence to aircraft landing in the Jacksonville ATCT airspace. This includes the TEBOW# STAR.

Responsibility
S is a low-level arrival sector for CRG, NRB, and SGJ. S shall provide overflight service, arrival sequence, and departure sequence to airports within S’s airspace.
Depature Procedures
S serves as the initial departure controller for all airports within its boundaries except for JAX.
Ensure all departures are on course as soon as practical.
Aircraft shall be climbed to 5,000 or less (if filed) and handed off to the appropriate sector.
The JAX final and departure corridors shall be protected from northbound departures from S. Traffic should be routed around or above the final and departure corridors.
For departures from JAX, S has authorization for airspace penetration for climbs and turns. S assumes responsibilities for separation, but S maintains responsibility for issuing appropriate traffic information.
S is responsible for conducting departures from NIP when NIP is in east operation.
Arrival Procedures
During JAX west operations, S is responsible for sequencing arrivals to Runway 32 unless the “32 Final” has been released to S.
The St. Augustine Shelf Airspace may be activated when necessary due to traffic. Coordinate with DAB_APP or JAX_CTR for use of this shelf airspace.
S is responsible for conducting approaches into NIP when NIP is in west operation.
Responsibility
V is a low level arrival sector for GNV, and OCF. V shall provide overflight service, arrival sequence, and departure sequence to airports within V’s airspace.
Depature Procedures
V serves as the initial departure controller for all airports within its boundaries. Ensure all departures are on course as soon as practical. Aircraft shall be climbed to 10,000 feet or less (if filed) and handed off to the next appropriate sector.
Arrival Procedures-General
The sector responsible for the primary runway shall establish the approach sequence for all arrivals.
Communications transfer of arriving aircraft to LC must be accomplished no later than five nautical miles from the end of the arrival runway.
When simultaneous approaches are being conducted on converging runways, LC is responsible for ensuring runway separation. However, TRACON must provide enough spacing to minimize the possibility of a go-around.
When vectoring to final from parallel downwinds, aircraft on opposing base legs shall be assigned altitudes to ensure vertical separation unless other approved separation has been applied. This ensures separation in the event of an overshoot on final.
Coordinate with LC for any aircraft conducting approaches to other runways than the active arrival runway(s) in use.
Departure Procedures-General
During East Flow, Turbojets that are west or southwest bound should be vectored counterclockwise north of KJAX.
During West Flow, Turbojets that are northeast bound should be vectored clockwise north of KJAX.
Forward departure instructions to LC for aircraft executing practice missed approaches.
Ensure all departures are on course as soon as practical.
All departures should be on course before handoff to Enroute Control unless otherwise coordinated. Aircraft shall be climbed to 15,000 or less if filed.
Provide airspace for automatic departures and radar final.
Provide airspace for missed approach on all runways.
Handoff and Radar Tracking
Jacksonville ATCT is a VFR tower. No radar handoffs shall be initiated to LC.
TRACON controllers shall not drop the track on any arriving aircraft. This allows a controller to maintain radar identification during missed approach.
Release and Rolling Calls
TRACON sectors give automatic releases to all departures from Jacksonville ATCT when departures follow the standard departure procedures as specified in this document.
All other airports within TRACON’s boundaries shall request a departure release. Upon approval of the release, the release shall be good for five minutes.
Upon issuance of the takeoff clearance, a departure message shall be sent to the appropriate departure sector. This can be accomplished non-verbally by the LC ensuring the aircraft is squawking the appropriate squawk code and mode C is enabled when airborne.
VFR Aircraft within TRACON
VFR Aircraft entering the Class Charlie airspace will be given a discrete beacon code.
If an aircraft departs from JAX and does not request a flight following, the aircraft will be handed off from LC to TRACON and released to UNICOM once clear of the Class Charlie.
