An imaginary air navigation OIS consisting of an inclined plane, symmetrical about the centre-line of the <RUNWAY>, beginning 60,96 metres (200 feet) outward of the <RUNWAY_ENDPOINT>, at the <<TERRAIN_ELEVATION>> of the <RUNWAY_ENDPOINT>, and extending for 12 903,04 metres (42 332 feet, or 7 nautical miles minus 200 feet of <RUNWAY_PRIMARY_OIS>); runway approach OIS. The slope of this <SURFACE> is 50 to 1 along the centre-line of the <RUNWAY> extended until it reaches a height of 152,4 metres (500 feet) above the <<TERRAIN_ELEVATION>> of the <RUNWAY_ENDPOINT> with the lowest <<TERRAIN_ELEVATION>> on the <AIRPORT>. It then continues horizontally to a point 12 964 metres (42 532 feet or 7 nautical miles) from the <RUNWAY_ENDPOINT>. The <<WIDTH>> of this <SURFACE> at the <RUNWAY_ENDPOINT> is the same as the <RUNWAY_PRIMARY_OIS>, it flares uniformly, and the <<WIDTH>> at 12 964 metres (42 532 feet) distance is 4 236,4 metres (13 899 feet).

RUNWAY_CONICAL_OIS

An imaginary air navigation OIS extending from the periphery of the <RUNWAY_INNER_HORIZONTAL_OIS> outward and upward at a slope of 20 to 1 for a horizontal distance of 2 133,6 metres (7 000 feet) to a height of 152,4 metres (500 feet) above the height of the lowest height <RUNWAY_ENDPOINT> and 4 419,6 metres (14 500 feet) from the centre-line of the <RUNWAY>; runway conical OIS.

RUNWAY_CONICAL_OUTER-
_HORIZONTAL_TRANSITIONAL-
_OIS

An imaginary air navigation OIS connecting the side of the <RUNWAY_APPROACH_OIS> to the sides of both the <RUNWAY_CONICAL_OIS> and <RUNWAY_OUTER_HORIZONTAL_OIS>; runway conical outer horizontal transitional OIS. This triangular <SURFACE> extends outward, perpendicular to the extended centre-line of the <RUNWAY> from the edges of the <RUNWAY_APPROACH_OIS>, at a 7 to 1 slope. The slope of this <SURFACE> is referenced to the centre-line of the <RUNWAY>.

RUNWAY_DISPLACED_THRESHOLD

RUNWAY_INNER_HORIZONTAL-
_OIS

An imaginary air navigation OIS defined by two half circles centred on the <RUNWAY_ENDPOINT>s and joined by tangents; runway inner horizontal OIS. The <<RADIUS>>s of the half circles are 2 286 metres (7 500 feet) and the tangents are parallel to the centre-line of the <RUNWAY> at a distance of 2 286 metres (7 500 feet). This <SURFACE> extends horizontally outward from the periphery of the <RUNWAY_PRIMARY_APPROACH_TRANSITIONAL_OIS> at a <<TERRAIN_ELEVATION>> of 45,7 metres (150 feet) above the <<TERRAIN_ELEVATION>> of the <RUNWAY_ENDPOINT> of lowest <<TERRAIN_ELEVATION>>.
