Message Indicators

There are different indicators for different types of messages:

SS	Ø Top priority indicator. Ø Only for distress messages related to an aircraft incident.
QX	Ø Priority indicator. Ø Very high transmission costs (200% of standard cost).
QU	Ø Stand for “urgent message”. Ø Has priority in transmission, but high transmission cost (150% of standard cost) Ø To be used for standard operational messages, unless otherwise operationally required. Ø Not to be used to obtain a quick action or reply.
QK	Ø Standard indicator. Ø Standard transmission costs.
QD	Ø For message with a non-urgent character. Ø Almost as fast as QU, but low transmission cost (60% of standard cost).

Distribution

The departure message is to be distributed as follows:

Standard distribution

Additional distribution

Departure message is to be sent to:

Ø Any downline station.

Ø Companies and function designators as specified in IDS and/or other airline internal publication.

Ø Recipients of the OPS plan or diversion message in cases where an OPS plan or diversion message has been sent.

For delayed and diverted flights: 

Ø Departure message to be addressed to all stations having received a delay or diversion message for that flight.

In case of technical delays:

Ø Supplementary addresses as published in IDS and/or other airline internal publication.

„ Delay codes

General

Delay codes are used to express the reason for delay or other handling irregularities in aeroplane movement messages. They must be applied impartially, as a means to identify corrective action.

In case of doubt of interpretation, the SI part of the movement message may be used for supplementary explanation.

Subcodes are to be specified in the SI part of the movement message.

The supplementary information indicator SI is followed by a space. It must begin a new line.

TOW and TOF information at SI for continental flights;

Take-off mass and take-off fuel shall be copied from loadsheet and fuelling order respectively.

TOW = Actual take-off mass according to loadsheet.

TOF = Actual take-off fuel according to fuelling order.

The mass figures shall be rounded up to the next 100 kg.

Loadmessage

The Loadmessage shall be transmitted

Ø for all multi sector flights to the next station except the last station of the multi sector flight

Ø to the alternate station, if the landing at the next scheduled destination seems doubtful.

Ø from the scheduled destination station to the alternate station if the aircraft is diverted during flight

The load message will be completed by transferring all load details into the shaded boxes of the Loadsheet for every destination of the flight in the sequence of routing. Last minute changes must be considered in the load message.

The station dispatching the load message is responsible for the correct transmission of the message. A cross-check therefore shall be made between the Loadsheet and the copy of the Teletype Loadmessage. In case of discrepancies, a second message shall be sent giving the appropriate correction. In this case the indication “COR” - corrected version- shall be stated in the message.

Container/pallet distribution message (CPM)

Purpose

The container/pallet distribution message:

Ø Is a basis for load planning at transit stations.

Ø Gives information for the disposition of adequate equipment and manpower for the unloading.

Ø Gives information to calculate the unloading sequence (e.g. to prevent tail-tipping).

The container/pallet distribution message is built up as follows:

1. Address and communication references.

2. Standard message identifier and flight record.

3. ULD information.

4. Bulk load information.

5. Supplementary information.

Load category codes:

1. Mass of ULD and load category code or group of load category codes must be separated by an oblique.

2. The codes listed below are to be used for the identification of the different load categories:

Code Description

B	Local baggage
BF	First class baggage (red priority baggage)
BC	Business class baggage (blue priority baggage)
BY	Economy class baggage
BT	Transfer baggage
C	Cargo
D	Crew baggage
E	Extra equipment (e.g. additional catering, unmanifested flight spares, etc.)
H	ULD and/or its load to be transhipped to a connecting flight (onward destination and/or flight to be shown in SI element).
M	Mail
N	No container or pallet at position (empty position/”no-fit”)
T	Transfer load (the letter ”T” must be added to the appropriate load category code, e.g. ”BT” for transfer baggage)
U	Unserviceable container/pallet
X	Empty container or pallet

The flight/truck service numbers of in- and outbound flight/truck must be mentioned.

A separate IN- and OUT message is to be dispatched:

If the departure of the outbound flight/truck is more than 3 hours after arrival of the inbound flight/truck, or if arrival and departure are on a different day.

The IN message must be dispatched not later than 3 hours after arrival of the inbound flight/truck.

Dispatch by transit stations

A separate IN- and OUT message is to be dispatched if arrival and departure are on different days (e.g. arrival before midnight, departure after midnight).

Number of return flight or truck service:

1. This information is required only in UCMs dispatched by turn-around stations.

2. The airline designator need not be given.

3. Flight or truck service number and number of return flight or truck service must be separated by an oblique.
