Philosophy

Within VATPAC airspace, radio phraseologies enable us (ATC and pilots) to communicate in the most efficient way possible. As a general principle all radio communications should be "Clear and Concise". Standard phraseology helps us to convey the required information in the shortest and clearest language possible. While standard phraseology is expected and accepted, reasonable variations are of course permissible, inevitable and commonly encountered.

A UIR Enroute control sector consists of multiple standard CTR sectors joined to form one super sector where an Upper Information Region (Above FL245) is then established. The UIR Enroute controller must release standard CTR sectors from the UIR sector as they are opened by additional controllers or pick up standard CTR that is vacated. Where traffic levels are such that the UIR Enroute controller cannot provide adequate service to the entire UIR, the UIR controller should close the UIR Enroute service and open an appropriate standard CTR position.
