S1 + S2 Training

S1 + S2 Training Syllabus - Reykjavik CTA

Within Iceland, we have two training airports on which you will be initially trained on they are:

  • BIKF - Keflavik
  • BIRK - Reykjavik

Our S1 and S2 training is combined, so you will do the whole ground and tower syllabus in one split over multiple training sessions.

S1 Training

  • You will begin your training on our Moodle page, where you will be taken through the setup of Euroscope and some basic fundamentals needed to know to be a controller.
  • Once compleated you will then arrange your first session with your mentor. Your mentor will then take you through the basics of the following topics below:

Euroscope

  • Confirming setup of Euroscope sector file
  • Logging onto the network with the correct callsign
  • Setting up an ATIS
  • Departure List
  • Tag familiarisation
  • Assigning SIDS, squawks and flight levels

Procedures

  • Understand the basic procedures for delivery/ground
  • Issue correct clearances IFR/VFR
  • Pushback
  • Taxi
  • Hand Offs

Phraseology

  • Understand the correct phraseology (ICAO)
  • Correct understanding of ATIS phraseology

All of the above will initially be completed on sweatbox before moving onto online practical training

Theory Exam

Once all is complete, after 2-3 sessions, you will be issued your theory test to obtain your S1 rating so you can then transition onto network training.

Online Practical Training

Once passed the theory, you will then be issued your S1 rating and will progress onto practical online training with your mentor on ground position.

Once your mentor is happy, you will then be released to control GND positions at BIKF and BIRK without your mentor.

That completes the S1 portion of the training
