Instrument Departure Procedure (DP) Charts
Designed to expedite clearance delivery and to facilitate transition between takeoff and en route operations.

 


Instrument Departure (DP)
A set of instructions to follow under Instrument Flight rules when departing an airport. They guarantee clearance from obstacles and keep all the planes flying the departure going the same way.

Instrument Departure's Three Zones of Obstacle Clearance
The first zone is from the departure end, 500' to each side and 35' high in a 15-degree fan to each side for a distance of two miles in a 40:1 slope or 152 ft/nm.

INSTRUMENT DEPARTURE PROCEDURE (DP)- A preplanned instrument flight rule (IFR) air traffic control departure procedure printed for pilot use in graphic and/or textual form.

Standard Instrument Departure Procedure (SID or DP) − A planned IFR air traffic control departure procedure published for pilot use in graphic and textual form.

Standard instrument departure procedures (SIDS). Published procedures to expedite clearance delivery and to facilitate transition between takeoff and en route operations.

SID - standard instrument departure. A standard IFR departure route enabling air traffic controllers to issue abbreviated clearances and thus speed the flow of traffic.

A SID, or Standard Instrument Departure, defines a pathway out of an airport and onto the airway structure. A SID is sometimes called a Departure Procedure (DP). SIDs are unique to the associated airport.

SELCAL - Selective Calling
SSR - Secondary Surveillance Radar
SID - Standard Instrument Departure
SIGMET - Significant Meteorological Information
STAR - Standard Terminal Arrival Route
STOL - Short Takeoff and Landing ...

In addition, flight plans may also contain SIDs (standard instrument departures), or STARS (standard terminal arrival routes), which are both procedures and checkpoints used to enter and exit the airway system.
