Hey everyone! For those that weren’t at the last SNP, here’s the info. Every Saturday night, someone (could be more than one person) from my group, the ATC Event Group, will control the airport, while the rest do touch-and-goes.
Last week, we were at KICT. This week, we head over to Madagascar for patterns! FMMI has one runway, and is located in Africa. Hope to see you there!
Server: Training
Region: Madagascar, Africa
Airport: FMMI
Time: June 9th, 2018, 2100Z
NOTAM: ATC will be open from 2100Z to 2200Z. Feel free to stop by and do some touch-and-goes. Please only use the Bombardier CRJ-700 or CRJ-200 Attendees:
A radar pattern is similar to a pattern controlled by Tower, but is different because approach will be vectoring you. You’ll take off, Tower will hand you off to approach, you request an ILS approach, GPS approach, Visual approach or Radar Vectors. Then approach will hand you back off to Tower once they cleared you, you call in “inbound on the ILS for touch and go” for example, do a touch and go, and then repeat. Take off, request to approach, clear, request to tower, touch and go, repeat.
When handed off to Tower click “Call inbound” then click “Touch & Go”.
We will only be doing radar patterns if it is necessary, so if you’re handed off to approach at any point then refer to the above information on how to conuct yourself. It is very important you listen to all instructions so we can all have an enjoyable time, and the controllers can learn something in the process! 🙂
