Ramp Frequencies

[megreene]

Is there anywhere that Ramp Frequencies are listed, other than company material? I had a LGA guy give me attitude because I didn't know of the existence of a second ramp freq. He said it was on my plates. I said where. He said cleared in to ramp. That was that.

Ramp Freq's

Assuming you are using Jeppesen charts, and are talking about New York, La Guardia...

I would say that the only "ground" frequencies are clearance on 135.200, Gnd on 121.700 and Copter Clearance on 121.870.

That being said, you can find ramp frequencies at certain airports e.g. KLAX 10-9B.

As far as La Guardia, I also looked in the AF/D and could find no reference to the ramp freq.

I'll take a look at our tailored charts tomorrow and see what we have printed on our charts for the airlines.

I have never seen published ramp freq. on LGA plates. I'm not sure about LGA but TEB sometimes implements "gate hold" and that freq. is on the atis.

Aren't ramp and other company freqs published on Jeppeson plates that some companies have custom made for them?

Looking at your porfile I guess you fly for Coex. If this is the case you sometimes park on the east side of your gates by air canada and just west of the old TWA hangars and the US air ramp. On this side by spot 21 (west end ZA) you use 129.87 and its usair/allegheny ramp control. I'm guessing this is the guy that gave you the attitude as they give it to us when we can make out what language their speaking in. as for your diff ramp freqs. It won't be on the jepps (only in certin places) but in your airport page published by your company if they do this. At allegheny we have a jepp size page for each airport with info such at deicing, parking, ops freqs, services ect...

a few years ago we (Allegheny) used delta/ACA/comair parking in LGA all the way at the end and didn't have the ramp/ops freq on our sheets. you had to get the info from your daily ops notices or whatever you company calls them.

btw clearance at LGA has been on 121.87 for the past week or so (this happens from time to time/don't know why) but 135.2 is OTS UFN.

Hope it helps

These frequencies are not on the standard jepp plates, however company special order plates might have them. I just checked the DFW plates, and there is no mentioning. One carrier I flew for gave us the list during groundschool, with the advice to keep them handy when flying into certain big airports. The same as the list of company freqs. I keep a dedicated little notepad for all this stuff, and it's nicely filled up

Thanks for the replies. I work for CHQ and we park gates 1-8. For gates 1-6 it is 129.87 and >6 it is 134.7, I think. When I was on the wrong freq for the gate, the ramp guy let me have it and told me to look closer at my Jeps. I responded that they were not on the jeps, he said something and I decided to just let it go. I just wanted to make sure I was not missing something obvious.

Actually,La Garbage ramp spots 1-6 are 129.87,7 and 8 are 131.47.These are for the Airways ops only-I dunno about the rest.The CLC freq (121.87) is on the ATIS (125.95 or 127.05) when 135.2 is OTS.

". I work for CHQ and we park gates 1-8. For gates 1-6 it is 129.87 and >6 it is 134.7, I think"

Sorry for the miss id on your company, according to my company ops plate the freqs you have above are correct.

at LGA there are gates 1A thru 8B.

Gates 1A-6B use 129.87
Gates 7A-8B use 131.47

the above info is from the Allegheny Flight ops manual, revision 61, updated 26 mar 03 so its pretty current. I'll make a photocopy of the FOM-jepp sheets we have and put it in the LGA crew room if you want.

Thanks, but I do have the correct freqs somewhere. My post was more of a misguided vent. Thanks though.

We need a top secret flightinfo frequency! How about 119.35?

119.35 - OK

megreene - that ramp guy is an a$$hole anyway
