vATIS

Since ES v3.2.2 it is possible to have up to 4 simultaneous ATIS-connections, however in Sweden we use vATIS. Which offers the same number of ATIS-connections, but also easier addition of RWYCC (Runway condition codes) or NOTAMs.

To use vATIS you need to download the software itself, and import a profile, both of which are linked below.

Note: Whenever a new update is released for the vATIS profile, you have to re-import it into vATIS, just replacing the .json with a newer one is NOT enough.


vATIS can be downloaded here

Documentation and more information available on the vATIS website


https://wx.awos.se/ shows AWOS/ATIS for many airports in Sweden.

  • ESSA is available, but unlisted, see here, it shows runways in use IRL and SCCs.
LVP:

When LVP is in force it can be added to the APT COND-window with LVP as free text, or activated by clicking on the APT COND text above the text field, and selecting LVP in the list.

Adding free text:
  • SCCs (surface condition codes) can be added as free text to the ARPT COND-window.
  • NOTAMs can be added as free text to the NOTAMS window.
    • i.e. TWY Y3 CLSD or GLIDE PATH RWY 17 OUT OF SERVICE

when adding free text to the APT COND or NOTAMS fields, take care to remove colon symbols ( : ) or double spaces ( ) where included, as the remaining text after will be ignored if the symbol/double space is not removed.
