SEQ PLN

SEQ PLN is used by EKCH_B_GND only when EKCH_C_GND (121.730) is online — B-GND takes the planner role while C-GND covers the other ground sector. The layout uses the GND aspect (same family as AA + AD and CLR DEL).

Bay overview

Bay	Strip type	Notes
Messages	Messages	Coordination / free-text.
Final	Arrival locked	Locked.
RWY ARR	Arrival locked	Locked.
TWY ARR	APN-ARR	Locked in this scope.
Startup (SEQ)	Cleared	Active — same strip behaviour as Cleared in CLR DEL; SI rules differ.
Push back	APN-PUSH	Matches Push back in AA + AD.
TWY DEP (upper / lower)	Departure locked	Locked.
Others	Uncleared	Active — SEQ PLN can issue clearances directly.
SAS	Uncleared	Same uncleared family.
Norwegian	Uncleared	Same uncleared family.

Uncleared strips

Others, SAS, and Norwegian match CLR DEL uncleared strips and are active so SEQ PLN can clear aircraft when needed.

Startup (SEQ)

All cleared departures sit in Startup (SEQ). Clickspots match Cleared strips in CLR DEL.

Note

The SI box shows white (strip is owned by SEQ PLN). SI always targets Apron Departure (AD) — click SI to split and send. Manual TRF SI is also available. Manual moves within this scope are limited to Startup (SEQ) ↔ Push back.

How SEQ PLN fits into staffing

From CLR DEL Cleared, automatic SI handoff depends on how many apron controllers are online:

• Two or fewer → SI to Apron Departure.
• Three → SI to SEQ PLN (this scope).

When DEL+SEQ is active on delivery, strips stay with EKCH_DEL in Cleared; the SI indicator changes (white vs orange) and delivery handles the handoff to apron at startup time.
