Florian Harms Posted April 1, 2011 at 06:53 PM Posted April 1, 2011 at 06:53 PM my workspace on my "traditional" position EDWW_CTR (beware, snaps are bigger), snap shouts out of a rollback session, a calm moment: I am working with an old computer, equipped with 2 screens, a bit of ram, and as you can see, euroscope. The 16x10, resolution 1680x1050, is the overview monitor, my major working area, the "big picture" for all crossing traffics, in and outbounds: the 4x3 monitor is a 20", resolution 1600x1200. It is carrying most lists and is mainly used for details e.g. to beam an aircraft to the 10dme fix. so it is my seperate approach screen... you might think its a bit colored, but it works fine for me. most colors are aligned to some snaps i have found of other atc solutions (more or less): So: blue aircrafts are tracked, orange are coming or are inside my airspace but are not tracked, and the dark purple ones have left my airspace.

Charts: https://www.ippc.no/norway_aip/current/AIP/AD/ENGM/engm.html I was half tempted to post about Point Merge and ask if you guys were doing it. Are those RNAV waypoints on each segment of the arc? If so, how many pilots do you have that can do it?

Even Rognlien Posted April 8, 2011 at 04:04 PM Posted April 8, 2011 at 04:04 PM Point Merge at Oslo Gardermoen runway 01R/L. The capital airport in Norway is the first airport in the world using this new approach system:*image* Effective from AIRAC 1104 wich was released yesterday. Charts: https://www.ippc.no/norway_aip/current/AIP/AD/ENGM/engm.html I was half tempted to post about Point Merge and ask if you guys were doing it. Are those RNAV waypoints on each segment of the arc? If so, how many pilots do you have that can do it? Yes, all points are RNAV waypoints and all aicrafts must be RNAV equipped in order to fly the approach. The arcs you see are parts of the STARs, so it's very easy to set up for the pilot. All pilots with AIRAC 1104 or later should have no problems flying the approach correctly, and if they have an old AIRAC they will get vectors all the way to the ILS. Most of the norwegian vatsim pilots do have the latest AIRAC since there have been a lot of discussion about Point merge on our flightsim forum. Of course there's still a lot of pilots with old AIRACs, but hopefully it will get better after a while.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam De Roose 1088100 Posted April 16, 2011 at 12:56 PM Posted April 16, 2011 at 12:56 PM Here is my scope: This picture was taken during a group flight, when I was controlling Brussels Arrival (EBBR_APP). Traffic on the left side of the eastern flow went to 25L and on the right side went to BUN, then left turn onto 25R. Yellow tags are notified flights and the blue ones are [Mod - Happy Thoughts]umed. And of course the history dots are from the UK[Mod - Happy Thoughts]istant plugin. And this is our Ground Radar for Brussels (based on the real one and probably already shown by Tom ): Sam Best Regards Sam De Roose Belux vACC - ACCBE2- Training Director sam.deroose (at) beluxvacc.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Wand Posted April 20, 2011 at 02:55 PM Posted April 20, 2011 at 02:55 PM I have an image in my head suggesting that Point Merge can work at EGLL. If there is no procedure available so pilots can simply enter it as a STAR, you can pretty much forget about it on VATSIM. I've tried giving 6 inbounds a DME arc yesterday, and got the following results: 1 flew it correctly 2 messed up clockwise and counterclockwise 2 reported unable and requested vectors 1 reported his aircraft wasn't equiped to receive VOR/DMEs ... he flew the PMDG MD11 VATSIM Instructor (I1) / ACCSUI2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
