Atc question

What does atis do exactly because misha had set up for Istanbul and it gave me some sort of Wikipedia article or something?

Automatic terminal information service. It gives information about runway in use, weather etc.

Oh so it gives me an idea of which runway I might expect?

It’s basically continuously broadcasted information that notifies pilots for conditions near the airport. It will tell you which runway(s) are in use, how strong winds are and so on.

Next time a search will get you to places

Okay thanks for answering my question!
