Bjarne Brueninghaus Posted July 16, 2020 at 11:35 PM Posted July 16, 2020 at 11:35 PM Hello. I‘m pretty new to vatsim, and have a question. Max favourite Airport is Weeze Niederrhein, ICAO Is EDLV. For sadness, there Is no atc for this Airport, probably cause it’s really small. What should i do When i‘m flying with IFR? Are there and frequencies i can contact? THX in advance.

Kirk Christie Posted July 16, 2020 at 11:47 PM Posted July 16, 2020 at 11:47 PM If there is an enroute/CTR controller online you should talk to them, as IFR aircraft must maintain 2 way communication with ATC. If there is no other ATC monitor unicom frequency 122.800 on both voice and text, and announce your intentions, like Taxiing, crossing or entering runways, departing, joining circuit legs, on final approach and landing. Refer to the pilot resource centre for more info. https://www.vatsim.net/pilot-resource-centre 1 Kirk Christie - VATPAC C3 VATPAC Undercover ATC Agent Worldflight Perth 737-800 Crew Member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you do not see any local aerodrome control for Niederrhein, check if EDDL_APP or EDGG_P_CTR/EDGG_CTR are active and contact them. I am not sure if the airport is located within the area of responsibility of EDDL_APP, but it certainly will be served by EDGG_P_CTR and by EDGG_CTR.

Tobias Dammers Posted July 17, 2020 at 04:22 PM Posted July 17, 2020 at 04:22 PM This VATSIM map is a starting point. You can also use software like VATspy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will help but if your are stall conserent just message the controller on about and see if there are providing coverage on the ground at the airport that your are flying in or out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
