ETHS Radar

Area of Responsibility

FaßbergFassberg Radar is responsible for departing and arriving traffic from/to ETHS. 

When online, FaßbergFassberg Radar activates its delegated AoR within the Bremen ACC sector Hannover (HAN). Full responsibility is delegated to FaßbergFassberg Radar for this airspace.

FaßbergFassberg Radar shall inform Bremen ACC sectors HAN, FRI and HAME  as well as Celle Radar (ETHC APP) about the opening and closing of AoR FaßbergFassberg immediately!

If Fassberg Radar is offline, Celle Radar (ETHC APP) will take over full responsibility for AoR Fassberg and top-down responsibilities at ETHS.

Procedures

Arriving Traffic

  • Arriving traffic is always coordinated individually between Bremen Radar, Celle Radar and FaßbergFassberg Radar ("Radar Handover")
  • It's expected that FaßbergFassberg Radar accepts or otherwise states the sector entry conditions during coordination.

Departing Traffic

  • Departing IFR traffic will be transferred from FaßbergFassberg Tower to FaßbergFassberg Radar initially. 
    • FaßbergFassberg Radar is responsible for verifying mode C readout and identifying the departing aircraft
    • Usually, FaßbergFassberg Radar shall coordinate a further climb with EDWW before departure release or coordinate a general release of the climb. Preferably, this coordination is combined with IFR clearance or departure release. If no further climb is coordinated, departing IFR traffic leaving the AoR shall be transferred to Bremen Radar after identification. 
ED-R 33A

During the activity of ED-R 33A, FaßbergFassberg Radar shall coordinate a crossing clearance for aircraft on an instrument approach. 

Approach Types

Runway 09

  • SRA
  • PAR

Runway 27

  • SRA
  • PAR

Since FaßbergFassberg Precision is currently not implemented on VATSIM, PAR approaches can only be conducted if traffic levels permit - if necessary, Bückeburg Radar can coordinate with civilian ATC to keep other inbound traffic outside of the airspace while a PAR approach is taking place; whether this is possible, however, depends on the current workload of civilian ATC
