T2 - AFIS

T2 Endorsement for AFIS operations in EKDK

By reading this training document, you will get an understanding of how to control an AFIS airport in the EKDK FIR.
After completion of this page, you will need to pass a small test, covering the subjects mentioned in this document.

After completion of the test, you will receive the T2 Endorsement for all AFIS stations within EKDK FIR (Not including EKVG)

You cannot get your S3 rating without completion of this course as some APP airspace provides top-down for AFIS airports.

Introduction

In Denmark, we have 7 RMZ//TIA/TIZ(AFIS) AD:

  • EKOD - Odense (TIZ/RMZ)
  • EKEB - Esbjerg (TIZ/RMZ & TIA/RMZ)
  • EKSB - Sønderborg (TIZ/RMZ)
  • EKVG - Vagar
  • EKSN - Sindal (TIZ/RMZ)
  • EKVD - Vamdrup (TIZ/RMZ)
  • EKST - Stauning (TIZ/RMZ)

The 3 later mentioned do not hold any commercial traffic.

RMZ - Radio Mandatory Zone / TIA - Traffic Information Area / TIZ - Traffic Information Zone
AFIS - Aerodrome Flight Information Service

All airspace are class G meaning:

  • IFR & VFR receive Flight information
  • Maximum speed 250 knots IAS
  • IFR - Two-way radio communication
  • IFR have SSR mode A+C
  • No clearance

However, when controlling an RMZ//TIA/TIZ some extra rules apply, these are:

SSR mode A+C for VFR (If fitted) & Two-way radio communication for VFR

The AFIS Station itself does not have radar, hence you will rely only on the information given by the pilots
