LIT SUPVR CTLR DESCRIBED OPERROR WHEN CTLR ASSUMED MIL DEP WAS CLRED AS NOTED ON STRIP; BUT FAILED TO TURN AS EXPECTED TO CLR HIGHER MVA.

Narrative

A C130 DEPARTED LRF FILED IFR ON A LCL FLT PLAN THAT INCLUDES ALT RESTRS AND FIXES. AFTER DEP THE CTLR WORKING THE ACFT SAW THE C130 WAS ON THE BEGEE DEP AND ONLY TOLD ACFT RADAR CONTACT. THAT IS STANDARD PROC WHEN AN ACFT IS ON THE BEGEE DEP. ACFT CONTINUED HDG 250 DEGS INSTEAD OF TURNING AT THE 8 MI FIX AS REQUIRED ON THE BEGEE DEP. WHEN THE CTLR NOTICED THAT ACFT DIDN'T TURN IT WAS TOO LATE TO AVOID A 3200 FT MVA AND ACFT ENTERED THE AREA AT 3000 FT. THE C130 SAID THAT LRF TWR GAVE HIM RWY HDG. ON THE BEGEE DEP THE ACFT ARE REQUIRED TO BE ON COURSE BY OUR LOA WITH LRF. AFTER I TALKED TO LRF TWR THEY SAID THERE WAS TROUBLE ENTERING ACFT'S FLT PLAN AT BASE OPS. THE BEGEE DEP IS ONLY SUPPOSED TO BE ISSUED TO ACFT REMAINING IN LIT AIRSPACE; BUT WAS USED IN THIS INSTANCE FOR AN ACFT LEAVING OUR AIRSPACE. ACFT LEAVING LIT AIRSPACE ARE GIVEN RWY HDG BY LRF TWR BY OUR LOA; SO LRF TWR GAVE ACFT RWY HDG. THE STRIP THE CTLR HAD ONLY SHOWED THAT THE C130 WAS ON THE BEGEE DEP BECAUSE WE USE HALF STRIPS AND IT IS NORMAL FOR THE LAST HALF TO BE TORN OFF BY FLT DATA BEFORE PLACING THE STRIP AT THE RADAR POS. THE BEGEE GOES TO A FIX N OF LRF WHERE THE IFR FLT PLAN IS AUTOMATICALLY CANCELED. IN THIS CASE THE FD CTLR TORE OFF THE END OF THE STRIP EVEN THOUGH THE FLT PLAN DIDN'T END AT THE BEGEE INTXN. THIS WAS CLASSIFIED AS AN OE FOR THE LIT RADAR CTLR. IN MY OPINION THE MAIN CAUSE OF THE PROB WAS THE LRF TWR NOT FOLLOWING THE LOA REGARDING FLT PLANS. WHEN LIT SEES A BEGEE DEP WE KNOW NOT TO WORRY ABOUT THE MVA. IN THIS CASE THE C130 WAS GIVEN RWY HDG CONTRARY TO OUR LOA REGARDING THE BEGEE. IT WAS COMPLICATED BY THE FD CTLR AT LIT NOT NOTICING THE NON STANDARD STRIP. YOU ONLY HAVE ABOUT 4 MI TO NOTICE THE C130 HAS NOT TURNED AND THEN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BEFORE GETTING TO THE 3200 FT MVA. TO KEEP THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN LRF MUST FOLLOW THE LOA REGARDING FLT PLANS AND DEP INSTRUCTIONS. LIT NEEDS TO STOP TEARING OFF THE END OF THE HALF STRIPS AND PLACE THE COMPLETE STRIP AT THE RADAR POS. EVEN THOUGH I BELIEVE THE MAIN CAUSE OF THIS WAS LRF ACTIONS; OVER TIME LIT HAS BECOME COMPLACENT ABOUT FLT STRIPS. IN THIS CASE IT WOULD HAVE GIVEN THE LIT RADAR CTLR A BETTER CHANCE TO NOTICE THE FLT PLAN PROB BEFORE THE OE HAPPENED IF THE FULL FLT PLAN HAD BEEN AT THE RADAR POS.
