The Air Traffic and Navigation Services (ATNS) of South Africa has announced the immediate reinstatement of the instrument approach procedure at Polokwane International Airport (PTG) in Polokwane, Limpopo. This crucial flight procedure is now fully operational, enhancing air navigation safety and efficiency at the airport.
The reinstatement follows the exemption approval granted by the South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) on Tuesday, 08 April 2025, covering flight procedures at several key South African airports, including Polokwane International Airport (PTG).
ATNS is also actively maintaining and updating flight procedures for the following airports:
- Richards Bay Airport (RCB) – Richards Bay
- Upington Airport (UTN) – Upington
- Bram Fischer International Airport (BFN) – Bloemfontein
These procedures are expected to be submitted to SACAA by 30 April 2025. Upon approval, an Alternative Means of Compliance (AMOC) application will be filed, allowing temporary operational use of the updated procedures during the official publication process.
ATNS reaffirms its dedication to air safety, procedural accuracy, and service excellence across South Africa's aviation network. The organization will continue to keep stakeholders and the aviation community informed as progress is made through its Flight Procedure Maintenance Programme.
