# Overview Stuttgart is a medium-sized and very interesting airport, especially when there's a lot of traffic. With only one runway, preplanning is important to run the airport efficiently. Like in reality, the typical traffic at the airport is a mix of VFR and short to medium haul IFR flights. **Stuttgart is an unrestricted airport.** DEL and GND are unrestricted and can be staffed by all controllers with an **S1** rating or higher who have passed the **required moodle courses**. TWR can be staffed by all controllers with an **S2** rating or higher. All radar positions can be staffed by all controllers with an **S3** rating or higher.

Due to the high amount of complexity of the airport, it is highly recommended that **S1-rated controllers** have gained a great deal of experience at other unrestricted airports before staffing positions at Stuttgart.

**Training:** Controllers with the S1 rating can staff TWR during their training (active EDDS\_TWR solo endorsement required). Controllers with the S2 rating can staff APP positions during their training (active EDDS\_APP solo endorsement required - sector NOR not included). ### Stuttgart ATC Stations
