TERMINAL ASSISTANCE May be established at aerodromes where the flight crew need on-ground assistance with regard
to the collecting and filing of flight documents, and with any other operational services during a
ground stop.

TERMINAL WATCH May be established at aerodromes where flight crew need information which is not available on
the normal ATS channels, in order to carry out a more efficient and economical operation. This
service should be available for aircraft approaching such aerodromes from Top Of Descent and on
departure until reaching Top Of Climb.

FLIGHT ASSISTANCE Normally covers such operational services as may be requested by an aircraft in flight in order to
overcome unforeseen circumstances in a more efficient manner. Such assistance shall be
requested by the P-I-C when deeming it necessary, but should also be initiated by the relevant
dispatch office when unforeseen circumstances arise, such as SIGMET.

FLIGHT WATCH Is established for flights over routes or portions of routes, where special weather/operational
conditions exist and for flights operating with marginal fuel.
