Backtracking the runway according to the image above is NOT authorized during the event. Pilots connecting with a Code F aircraft on stand 5B will get taxi instructions via taxiway T to the runway holding point.

Pilots are requested to refrain from flying Code F aircraft to Rovaniemi during the event.

Re-routing

Rovaniemi Delivery may assign a modified flight plan route with the en-route clearance. Please be prepared to reprogram your route if necessary. There are mandatory routes to ESNQ, ENTC and flights towards Sweden which you can view in our route planner at fss.vatsim-scandinavia.org. Flights southbound may also be re-routed to avoid arriving traffic.

Target Start-up Approval Time (TSAT)

Pilots may be assigned a TSAT after the en-route clearance. The given TSAT is calculated based on the amount of departures and arrivals to Rovaniemi. The goal of using TSAT is to avoid spending unessessary time at the holiding point when the engines are turned on.

Rovaniemi Delivery will transfer departing traffic to Tower when the TSAT time is reached. If the stands are getting too crowded, departing traffic may need to aborb some delay on the taxiway instead.

Push back procedures

Stands Push back procedure
3B, 4B, 5B, 6B, 6C, 8B, 13, 14 and 16 Push back is normally not required but provided by pilot request
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 Push back is required
7B, 8C, 23 No push back

Take-off

Departures will be assigned a departure gap by our Flow Managers. Therefore pilots are requested to be ready for departure when reaching the runway holding point in order not to miss the coordinated gap.

Departing traffic are assigned a heading and altitude by Rovaniemi Delivery to be followed after departure.

Maintain TWR frequency until 2000 FT, then contact Rovaniemi Radar frequency 129.900

Do not climb above 4000 FT unless cleared by ATC
