# Overview Niederrhein is a small airport at Germany's border with the Netherlands. It hosts primarily Ryanair flights to and from various destinations; additionally, due to its history as a military air base, it still has some basic military infrastructure and thus sees occasional military flights. **Niederrhein is an unrestricted airport** and **part of the [S1 minor program](https://knowledgebase.vatsim-germany.org/books/langen-fir-edgg-cw9/page/s1-basic-lesson "EDGG S1 minor program")**. TWR can be staffed by all controllers with an **S1** rating or higher who have passed the **required moodle courses**. Further information on the radar stations can be found in the [EDDL SOP](https://knowledgebase.vatsim-germany.org/books/sops-fir-langen/chapter/eddl-dusseldorf-airport "EDDL SOP (VATGER Knowledgebase)"). ### Niederrhein ATC Stations
