Use of stands

In Rønne, there are 3 main aprons.
Apron East is the primary passenger parking.
Apron West is for private A/C
GA parking (North) is a grass field.

IFR clearance

Initial contact is with Tower. As Bornhold is surrounded by Swedish Airspace, the clearance comes via Sweden. Therefore you can expect some delay in your clearance, and quite often you will get start-up and taxi before the clearance is obtained.

Remember to state if you require the latest MET-Report.

As there are no SIDs in Rønne your departure clearance will sound like this:

“Sweden control Clears you to Destination via [Point]/[Flightplan route], 4000’, expect level change, squawk 1234, after departure Direct [Point]”

Push-back

All stands are taxi-out. No pushback required.

Taxi

Runway 28R/10L is not used on Vatsim, hence you can expect to use this runway as a taxiway.

Runways

In Aarhus, there are 2 runways. Whereas RWY 10R/28L is the primary. RWY 28L have ILS CATII and 10R have ILS.
Runway 28R/10L is not to be used.

SIDs

There are no SIDs in Aalborg, hence you will always be cleared via a WP.
For flights bound for EKRK/EKCH, this will be either TESPI or TNO.

STARs

There are no STAR's in Aarhus.
Expect direct to ILS fix or Vectors.

Approach

ILS is the only approach type normally used.
You might receive "Via [FIX] Cleared ILS Runway XX" Meaning after that FIX you are cleared for the ILS approach. The FIXEs are The 4 in each picture below.
Visual Approaches can be approved for all A/C types on request to the APP controller.
