Letter of Agreement
New York ARTCC (ZNY) & Potomac TRACON (PCT)
Rev. 2 - April 7, 2020
Purpose
This agreement prescribes transfer of control procedures, radar handoff procedures, route/altitude assignments, and delegation of airspace between New York ARTCC (ZNY) and Potomac TRACON (PCT).
Scope
The procedures contained herein must apply unless prior coordination is effected.
Disclosure
vZNY and any other facilities mentioned in this document are affiliated with the Virtual Air Traffic Simulation (VATSIM) network. The procedures outlined in this document are intended exclusively for use in the VATSIM flight simulation environment and must never be used for actual flight or air traffic control operations. vZNY and any other facility mentioned in this document are not affiliated with the FAA in any manner.

General

  • New York Center (ZNY) delegates to Potomac TRACON (PCT) authority and responsibility for control of arrival, departure, and tower enroute aircraft within the approach control area depicted on Attachment 1.
  • Minimum radar separation between aircraft when transfer of control is accomplished shall be at least 10 nautical miles, constant or increasing.
  • The Center/TRACON delegated airspace shall be the transfer of control point (TCP).
  • Verbal coordination is required for overflight traffic on V39 and V143.
  • Regardless of the facility requesting holding and/or altitude/route changes which will affect additional sectors in the adjacent facility’s area, each facility shall be responsible for completing all its own necessary internal coordination.

    • Jet arrivals from LRP, (except those originating in the PHL Terminal Area) will be handed off to PCT descending to 15,000′. PCT will have control for turns of up to 45º right of course at the TCP. PCT is responsible for pointing out these aircraft to ZNY if necessary.
    • Jet arrivals originating in the PHL, WRI, and RDG Terminal Areas will be handed off to PCT climbing to 14,000′ not in trail with other LRP jet arrivals.
    • Jet arrivals from PSB/HAR, (except those originating in the MDT Terminal Area) will be handed off to PCT at or below 14,000′ descending to 13,000′. PCT will have control for turns of up to 30º left or right of course South of the centerline of V474.
    • Jet arrivals originating from the MDT Terminal Area will be handed off to PCT at 11,000′ not in trail with other PSB/HAR jet arrivals. PCT will have control for turns of up to 30º left or right of course South of the centerline of V474.
    • Prop arrivals from LRP/DELRO will be handed off to PCT descending to 12,000′.
    • Prop arrivals from TROYZ# will be handed off to PCT descending to 12,000′ and 250kts.
    • Prop arrivals from PSB/HAR will be handed off to PCT descending to 9,000’. PCT will have control for turns of up to 30º left or right of course South of the centerline of V474.
      Note: In the event of a simultaneous BWI or DCA prop arrival, the IAD prop will be descending to 10,000′.
    • Prop arrivals from the MDT Terminal Areas must be handled via tower en route control (TEC).
      Note: TEC routes are low-altitude IFR routes that require no level of air traffic control higher than approach-control facilities. These routes can be found using the Preferred Route Database.
    • PCT has control to change beacon code assignments for arrival aircraft south of the centerline of V474.
    • Prop arrivals not capable of speeds greater than 210kts from the PHL and WRI Terminal Areas must be handled via TEC.
  • DCA & DCA Satellite arrivals:
    • ZNY must provide in-trail spacing between jet arrivals from MXE and LRP/PSB.
    • Jet arrivals from MXE will be handed off to PCT to cross CLIPR or cross 20nm Northeast of BAL at 12,000′.
    • Jet arrivals from LRP/PSB will be handed off to PCT to cross SKILS or cross 20nm North of BAL at 12,000′.
    • Props from MXE will be handed off to PCT to cross TROYZ or cross 40nm Northeast of BAL at 11,000′.
    • Props from LRP will be handed off to PCT at 10,000′.
    • Props from HAR/PSB will be handed off to PCT descending to 9,000′.
    • PCT has control to change beacon code assignments for arrival aircraft within 30nm of BAL.
  • BWI & BWI Satellite Arrivals:
    • ZNY must provide in-trail spacing between jet arrivals from MXE and LRP.
    • Jet arrivals from MXE will be handed off to PCT to cross 25nm Southwest of MXE or cross 40nm North of BAL at 12,000′ and 250kts.
    • Jet arrivals from LRP will be handed off to PCT to cross 25nm South of LRP or cross 40nm North of BAL at 12,000′ and 250kts.
    • Props from MXE will be handed off to PCT to cross TROYZ or cross 40nm north of BAL at 11,000′.
    • Props from LRP will be handed off to PCT at 9,000′.
    • Props from HAR/PSB will be handed off to PCT descending to 9,000′.
    • PCT has control to change beacon code assignments for arrival aircraft within 40nm of BAL.
    • PCT may vector BWI arrivals toward BAL South of the centerline of V408. It shall be PCT's responsibility to separate SKILS arrivals from those over TRISH.

Departure Procedures

  • BWI, BWI Satellite, DCA, and DCA Satellite departures:
    • ZNY must advise PCT when departure clearances will be on an approval basis only.
    • Aircraft requesting 17,000′ or below must be cleared via the routes described in Attachment 3.
    • Departures must be cleared to 11,000′ or lower requested altitude.
    • ZNY has control for climb and/or turns 30° either side of course north of the centerline of the MXE267° radial.
    • PCT may clear aircraft routed via LRP, direct LRP without coordination.

Overflights

  • Verbal coordination is required for overflight traffic routed via V39/143.
  • RNAV overflight traffic routed via T291 and T295:
    • Must be at or below 11,000'.
