APPENDIX

TARIFF FORMULAS AND COEFFICIENTS

 

(1)An air traffic service charge is composed of the sum of VC, BSC and FC for each discrete Aerodrome, TMA Access and Area movement undertaken, according to the following mass categories and locations:

(2)Each Rand-value coefficient in the table above is multiplied by—
(a)100% for a domestic flight;
(b)100% for a regional flight; and
(c)100% for an international flight,

except in the case of FCs for Aerodrome and TMA Access Charges at FAOR for aircraft with MCM ≤ 5 000 kg where the coefficient as stated in the table applies.

 

(3)As an illustration, assume the following flights:

 

Example 1

 

Domestic flight from FAOR to FACT, with aircraft with MCM = 100 000 kg and d = 686 miles

 

Charge  =[Aerodrome Charge at FAOR + TMA Access Charge at FAOR + Area Charge + TMA Access Charge at FACT + Aerodrome Charge at FACT] × 100%

 

= [[VCAero + BSCAero + FCAero] + [VCTMA + BSCTMA + FCTMA] + [VCArea + BSCArea + FCArea] + [VCTMA + BSCTMA + FCTMA] + (VCAero + BSCAero + FCAero]] × 100%

 

= [[R39,87 + (R161,99/100 x √100 000) + (R209,39/100 x √100 000)] + [R39,87 + (R198,35/100 x √100 000) + (R386,87/100 x √100 000)] + [R39,87 + (R198,35/100 x √100 000) + (R277,72/10 000 x √100 000 x (686-35-35))] + [R39,87 + (R198,35/100 x √100 000) + (R386,87/100 x √100 000)] + [R39,87+ (R198,35/100 x √100 000) + (R209,39/100 x √100 000)]] x 100%

 

= [(R39,87 x 5) + (R198,35/100 x √100 000 x 5) + (R198,35/100 x √100 000 x 2) + (R386,87/100 x √100 000 x 2) + (R277,72/10 000 x √100 000 x 616)] x 100%

 

= R12 514,42

 

Example 2

 

International flight from FAOR to international gateway, with aircraft with MCM = 4 500 kg and d = 211 miles

 

Charge = [Aerodrome Charge at FAOR + TMA Access Charge at FAOR] × 100%

 

=[[VCAero + BSCAero] × 100% + FCAero] + [[VCTMA + BSCTMA] × 100% + FCTMA]

 

= [[R39,87 + (R161,99/10 000 x 4 500)] x 100% + R85,49] + [[R39,87 + (R161,99/10 000 x 4 500)] x 100% + R161,99]

 

= [(R39,87 x 2) + (R161,99/10 000 x 4 500 x 2)] x 100% + R85,49 + R161,99

 

= R468,85
