Are there areas where only SSR are in use for radar service?

Hi!

I seem to remember that quite a few new ATC-units in europe have phased out PSR and are operating only on SSR-replies, however I can't remember which centres/units. Am I totally wrong? Can anybody enlighten me? :-)

ACC in Poland is using SSR only, but lateral separation mimimum is set to 7NM.

[FDMS]

Abu Dhabi Approach is SSR only. Seperation is 5nm.

PSR

Canada has phased out almost all its PSR's (assuming we are only talking of civil ops here).

[M609]

Norway has only PSR at Oslo Gardermoen and a few MIL units. (Apporach)

[Quintilian]

M609, confirm only SSR in use at Gardermoen?

[YZFATC]

Only SSR here (Southern Northern Canada).

Regarding Norway, you have PSR at (at least) ENGM, ENBR, ENVA and ENBO.

I think you at least need one PSR to have less than 5nm minimum sep. (in Norway CAA requires 2 for some reason)

The Eurocontrol 'Blue Book' might be of some help to you. Don't know why it's called the Blue Book but you can get it here.
