41
MAJCOM Departure method: (MADOODS)
MAJCOM Certified (5.30) - In restricted areas or during contingency ops, MAJCOMs may develop and authorize departure procedures. These are for specific aircraft at specific locations. Aircrew must complete specific training before using these.
42
ATC Departure method: (MADOODS)
- HDG and an altitude (not considered radar vectors)
- Do not apply wind drift corrections
43
Diverse departure method: (MADOODS)
IFR departure that allows the PIC to turn in any direction to avoid obstacles as long as the assessment shows no obstacles in std departure profile
Acceptable if only low close-in obstacles penetrate the 40:1 obstacle identification surface. Not specifically cleared by ATC, cannot file on flight plans
Do not fly Diverse Departure if RWY has a standalone graphic ODP or published ODP listed in the “Trouble T” section, ODP in this case is defined as:
Non-STD climb gradient
Non-STD wx minimums
Departure procedures
Trouble T means: Takeoff minimums are not STD and/or departure procedures are published
Trouble A means: Alternate minimums not STD
Assessment area limited to 25 NM from airfield in non-mountainous areas, 46 NM in mountainous areas
44

- Visual climb over airport (VCOA)
- Reduced Takeoff Runway Length (RTRL)
- Any combination of these above 4
47
Visual Climb Over Airport (VCOA)
Labeled VCOA: For IFR aircraft operating in VMC equal to or greater than the specified visibility and ceiling, to visually conduct climbing turns over the airfield to the published “climb-to” altitude. Upon reaching this altitude, aircraft may proceed with the instrument portion of the departure
- MAJCOMs may authorize VCOA. Pilots remain within the published visibility distance, will not exceed the radius from the center of the airfield while climbing, and will visually identify obstacles throughout the climb
- Advise ATC asap of intent to fly VCOA
- Can’t make up your own VCOA
- No VCOA at night unless using NVDs
- VCOA does not guarantee obstacle-free flight path during visual part of the maneuver
- May be graphical or textual ODP
48
Reduced Takeoff Runway Length (RTRL)
Inside of Takeoff Minimums, dictates takeoff occurrence at a certain point on the runway: If all obstacles penetrate 40:1 by 35 ft or less, limiting the takeoff runway to allow STD climb gradient to clear those.
49
Omnidirectional departure method (MADOODS):
Turn in any direction after reaching a certain altitude. No track guidance
Labeled Omnidirectional Departures: No track guidance provided or available. Similar to Diverse Departure, but the difference is that Omnidirectionals may be published even with 40:1 penetrations. May only be flown when specifically published.
50
Omnidirectional departure designs:
- Departure restrictions not published when obstacles do not penetrate 40:1 and an additional 246 feet of required obstacle clearance exists. Pilots may turn in any direction upon reaching 400 ft above DER elevation
- 200 ft/nm climb to an altitude at which omnidirectional turns may be made when obstacles preclude turns at 400 ft
- May define a minimum climb gradient higher than 200 ft/NM to a specified altitude before turns are permitted
- May identify sectors for which either a minimum climb gradient or minimum turn altitude is specified
- Pilots must maintain at least standard IFR climb gradient from the altitude at which turns in any direction are allowed until reaching a minimum IFR altitude
51
Diverse Vector Area (DVA) method (MADOODS):
May be created to allow radar vectors to be used in lieu of an ODP
Pilots will determine if DVA is published and if aircraft is capable of meeting published climb gradients. Advise ATC when requesting clearance or ASAP if unable to meet DVA climb gradient
52
Standard Instrument Departure (SIDs) method: (MADOODS)
