¡ Welcome to Colombia - Bienvenidos a Bogotá !
¡ Hello !
I’m Andrés, a 20 years old Colombian aviation lover, I’m studying Aeronautical Engineering, I’m on my 3rd year, SKBO is my home airport and the beginning of my dreams and my motivations as an Aeronautical student, and I’m here to invite you to this great event that will take place at Aeropuerto Internacional El Dorado Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento.
Throughout my stay here in Infinite Flight, I’ve been so interested to show the world that Colombia is a perfect country to fly, to the south with Leticia and its colorful amazonic landscapes , to the north with Cartagena, Barranquilla and Santa Marta’s airports and coasts , to Pasto with its dangerous and tricky approach and landing, also Bogotá, the busiest cargo airport in South America and second on passengers.
Well, here you are, during these lasts months, I’ve been collecting some flights around the world that IFC will like to fly, obviously from SKBO, it’s a long long list, and as you may will see, my home airport ran out of gates to complete the whole event, so, with that long list I just want to show off my airport haha.
Of course, I want to tell the story about the name of the airport, It would be a little awkward to tell, but here is it, Luis Carlos Galán was a liberal politician who ran for the presidency, but as you may know, between the 80s and the 90s, Colombia experienced a serious time of violence on behalf of the drug trafficking promoted by Escobar and other nefarious characters, Galan was murdered in the central square of Soacha (Municipality near Bogotá) during a campaign speech , then as a tribute, The Colombian Government named Bogota’s airport like that, but for everyone it’s better to called as El Dorado, which in fact is named like that because of the breathe-taking afternoon landscapes and of course, El Dorado Legend, a gold piece exposed to the public on Museo del Oro in Bogotá Downtown.
I have nothing else to tell you, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2021 🎄
THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CLOSED/CANCELLED DUE TO THE LACK OF RESPONSES, I’LL MAKE IT AGAIN ASAP, AND A SURPRISE IT’S COMING :O

NOTAMS
-
Please follow ATC Instructions if IFATC’s present , likewise, use El Dorado Unicom frequency correctly
-
I am not responsible for any reports or violations
-
As you may see, during the preparation of this event, SKBO ran out of gates, so please be patience, I’ll manage to assign you one
-
If you see a route that you like, but it is already assigned, don’t worry, write the route you want down below and I will try to assign you a gate
-
Spawn in 5-15 minutes before the start hour
-
Reply in the chat with the route that you want and I’ll assign that one :)
-
For international flights operated by Avianca, Do Not cross through Venezuela, that means you have to make sure that you aren’t in Venezuelan Air Field (Maiquetia FIR), The other airlines like Iberia, Lufthansa, etc, can cross Maiquetia FIR. (a little of realism to this event)
-
Also, as you may know, SKBO is an airport that is located into the city, and it’s located with mountains ahead, so the use of the charts and differents aeronautical procedures is strongly recommend
-
It’s possible that your flight, due to lack of gates, be delayed
-
Thanks for join to this Fly-Out, such a dream for me :’)

Airport Diagrams and procedures
This is like a whole diagram of El Dorado.
When you taxi to Runway 13R or Runway 31L with low visual
Another diagram
This is, in my opinion, the common departure procedure used in SKBO, you can use ZIP VOR to the North, or SOA VOR to the south, there’s no flight that departures straight out (Obvious reasons)
Recommend Procedures
North:
ZIP2D: Only for 31L/R Runways
OSUS1R: Transition to GIKPU, but feel free to follow your FPL
ZIP2C: Heavy flights uses this procedure often
DANS1R: Sincerely, I’ve never seen a flight use this procedure in real world, but feel free to use it, It could be fun
East
USID1B (13L/R ),USID2A (31 L/R): Rare procedure
South
BOGU2C: Runways 31 L/R
POVS2U: Runways 13 L/R
VAPO1R: Commonly used
KAMI2C: Commonly used
West
EPO1R: Commonly used
TOBK1R,VASI1U,VASI1T: Commonly used - Strongly Recommend
Also I recommend to all of you to use FPLTOIF if you don’t know how to use it, feel free to ask me for your FPL for your flight
If you want a different real flight , feel free to request it
