Introduction
Tower is responsible for all movements on the runways as well as for all movements within the Control Zone (CTR): e.g. LOWW_TWR: 10NM radius, GND to 2500ft MSL).
Tower is also responsible for Ground and Delivery operations if they are not online. Tower also decides which runways are in use.

VATEUD-TD Radio Communication |
Wikipedia: Buchstabentafel |
Radio Communication - Basics
Because Communication is crucially important for Air Traffic Control a fixed format and syntax us used, in order to minimize the risk of misunderstandings and to keep messages short. Worldwide English is the primary language in use, however in most countries you are also allowed to use the local language. In Austria VFR flights can choose their language whereas IFR flights are mostly conducted in English.
Basic Rules
In order to achieve the goals set above the following rules important:
- Listen before you talk
It's impossible for two radio stations to transmit on the same frequency at the same time. If this is done, the radio signal will be blocked and this will result in a nasty noise on the frequency. Therefore it's important that every station monitors the frequency for about 5 seconds before transmitting, to make sure there’s no ongoing radio traffic. If you hear an ongoing conversation, wait until the conversation is over before you begin to transmit. Don’t start your communication if there is a read-back expected on the last transmission even if there is a short pause.
- Think before you talk
The radio traffic flow should be as smooth as possible. To achieve this it's vital to "think first" before transmitting so that a clear, concise and uninterrupted message can be sent.
- As far as possible use standard phraseology and syntax
To prevent misunderstandings and to maintain the radio traffic as effective as possible, stick to standardized phraseology and skip slang and of course private messages.

Every participant on the network has his own Callsign. Controller Positions are identified by their location and their Function (e.g. Wien Radar, Graz Tower), Aircraft either by their Registration (e.g. OE-ALB) or an Airline Callsign followed by a combination of numbers and letters (e.g. AUA25LM, SWR387). To pronounce these letters and digits the ICAO-Alphabet is used.
To initiate the contact between two stations an initial call has to be made. This call has the following structure:
- Station1: Station 2, Station 1, Message
Station 2: Station 1, Station 2, Message - e.g.: Austrian 251 is calling Wien Tower:
AUA251: Wien Tower, Austrian 251, with you.
LOWW_TWR: Austrian 251, Wien Tower, Servus!
In Subsequent calls the calling station part can be ommited.
When a controller (or aircraft) transmits a message to a station it is very important that the receiving station acknowledge the message and reads back any required parts.. If the receiving station does not acknowledge, the transmitted message is considered as a lost transmission and the sender should resend the message or check if the receiving station got the message.
Items that must always be read back in full are all clearances (including altitudes, heaings, speeds, radials etc), runway in use, altimeter setting (QNH or QFE) and transition level, and all frequencies. For a controller, this is extremely important to remember, since if a pilot's readback is incorrect, the controller has to ask for confirmation, i.e a new readback. There are also items that should not be read back to reduce unnesessary radio transmissions. In short, this includes everything not mentioned above, but a few examples are: wind, temperature and other weather information (except altimeter settings) and traffic information in detail.
When giving an instruction the Callsign is stated at the beginning, when reading back you usually add it at the end of your transmission (although you are allowed to do it at the beginning too).
Examples:
- LOWW_APP: AUA251, turn left heading 290, descend to Altitude 5000 feet, QNH 1019.
AUA251: Turn left heading 290, descending to altitude 5000 feet QNH 1019, AUA251 - LOWW_GND: OE-DLT, taxi to Holding Point Runway 29 via taxiway Exit 12, M and A1, give way to Speedbird Airbus A320 crossing you right to left on M.
OE-DLT: Taxiing to H/P Rwy 29 via Exit 12, M and A1, giving way to Speedbird Airbus A320 on M, OE-DLT. - LOWW_TWR: NLY2678, wind 330 degrees at 6 knots, Rwy 29, cleared for takeoff.
NLY2678: Rwy 29, cleared for takeoff, NLY2678.
Aircraft and basic Flying Principles
METAR and TAF
METAR
The word METAR comes from the French phrase "message d’observation météorologique régulière pour l’aviation". It is thought to be a contraction of the French words MÉTéorologique ("Weather") Aviation Régulière ("Routine").
A METAR is a codified observation message indicating airfield weather conditions observed at a given time. Such a message is established every hour, even sometimes every 30 minutes or shorter due to fast and heavy weather changes which affects the traffic flow.
Sample:
LOWW 011220Z 33007KT 280V020 3000 R34/1500 +RASH FEW040 BKN058TCU 16/07 Q1014 RETS WS RWY34 34231091 BECMG -SHRA SCT030CB
Detailed Explaination:
1.) Location Identifier: LOWW
The four-letter ICAO code of the observing location.
2.) Day of Month/Zulu Time: 011220Z
3.) Wind: 33007KT
Wind direction (true heading), rounded to the nearest ten degrees and always expressed as three digits. Direction can be given as VRB if wind direction is variable and wind speed is at most 3 knots.
plus
average wind speed of last 10 minutes in knots.
or
maximum gust wind speed in knots.
If it is calm, the wind is given as 00000KT.
4.) Variable Wind Direction: 280V020
This field is used if the total variation of wind direction during the last 10 minutes is 60 degrees or more and wind speed is more than 3 knots. The direction extrema are given in clockwise order
5.) Horizontal Visibility: 3000
Usually, only the minimum visibility is reported. If the minimum is less than 1500m and the maximum is over 5000m, the maximum visibility and its direction are indicated by a second visibility group following the minimum visibility.
6.) RVR Runway Visual Range: R34/1500
Runway designator and runway visibility in meters.
7.) Significant Weather: +RASH
Intensity is expressed by: + = heavy, - = light, nothing = moderate
Proximity is described by: VC = ViCinity (within 8km)
BC = Banc - fog bench BL = Blowing DR = Drifting FZ = Freezing MI = Mince - thin fog layer SH = Shower TS = Thunderstorm DZ = Drizzle GR = Grêle - hail (diameter > 5mm) GS = Grêsil - hail (diameter < 5mm) IC = Ice Crystal PE = Ice Pellets RA = Rain SG = Snow Grains SN = Snow BR = Brume - mist (vis 1000 to 3000m) DU = Dust FG = Fog (vis < 1000m) FU = Fumée - smoke (vis < 3000m) HZ = Haze SA = Sand VA = Vulcanic Ashes DS = Dust Storm FC = Funnel Clouds PO = Dust Spins SQ = Squall SS = Sand Storm
8.) Clouds and Ceiling: FEW040 BKN058TCU
Cloud coverage:
FEW = few - 1 to 2 octas SCT = scattered - 3 to 4 octas BKN = broken - 5 to 7 octas OVC = overcast - 8 octas
Cloud types:
CB = cumulunimbus TCU = towering cumuli or cumulus congestus
Also common:
SKC = Sky Clear (no clouds) OVC/// = clouds covering the sky and which base is below aerodrome level VV/// = sky not visible VV002 = vertical visibility is 200ft CAVOK = ceiling and visibility is OK (vis > 10km and SKC)
9.) Temperature and Dew Point: 16/07
The difference between temperature and dew pont is called "spread", the smaller the spread the higher the risk of precipitation.
10.) Pressure, QNH (altimeter setting): Q1014
QNH = 1014 hPa (hectopascals - 1hPa = 1mb - millibar)
11.) Recent Weather: RETS
Recent Thunderstorm
Also:
RERA = recent rain RESN = recent snow NOSIG = no significant change

TAF Terminal Aerodrome Forecast
METAR describes the current weather conditions, a TAF message
contains forecast information. Many of the elements are similar to
those used in METARs. An example of a TAF message:
LOWW 011400Z 011524 31008KT 9999 FEW040 BKN060 TX16/15Z TN10/24Z TEMPO 1521 32013KT -SHRA BKN045 PROB30 TEMPO 1520 31015G25KT 6000 SHRA BKN040 FEW045TCU BECMG 2324 CAVOK
The first two groups (LOWW 01140Z) are identical to METAR groups: location identifier and issuing day and time. The third group (011524) tells the period for which the forecast is given. The first two numbers denote day of month. The next four numbers give the validity hours. In this example, the forecast is valid from 15:00 to 24:00. After these code groups, a description of the forecast weather phenomena follows.
How is an Aerodrome Organized?
Der TWR (Flugplatzkontrollstelle) ist zuständig für den :
Flugplatzverkehr Personen und Fahrzeugverkehr auf Manövrierflächen
Nachdem Follow-Me Fahrzeuge nicht mehr eingesetzt werden dürfen entfällt hier der zweite Punkt.
Die Flugplatzkontrollstelle kann nun auch weiter untergliedert werden in die Positionen Delivery (DEL), Ground/Rollkontrolle (GND) sowie Tower/Turm (TWR).
Die nächst höher gelegene "Instanz" ist die APP (Anflugkontrollstelle)
Kontrollierte An- und Abflüge
Die Anflugkontrollstelle in Wien ist für An- und Abflüge zuständig und kann bei Bedarf sektorisiert werden. So kann man den LOWW_APP in jeweils einen Nord-Süd Sektor teilen, oder aber in einen Upper-Lower Sektor
aufteilen. Zu Spitzenzeiten werden die Sektoren nach beiden Verfahren geteilt, noch dazu wird eine Director-Position eingerichtet, die LFZ vom Lower Approach auf das ILS führen.
Darüber befindet sich die ACC (CTR) Bezirkskontrollstelle
Für alle übrigen kontrollierten Flüge
Bei VATSIM bearbeitet der LOVV_CTR das gesamte Bundesgebiet und übernimmt auch die Tätigkeit des TWR & APP auf allen österreichischen Flughäfen, sollten diese nicht online sein. Das Gebiet Tirol & Vorarlberg
über FL165 wird nicht von LOVV kontrolliert, sondern im Auftrag der ACG von der deutschen Flugsicherung mitbetreut (EDMM).
>br>
Alle drei Kontrollstellen üben den Kontrolldienst gemäß §68 Abs.1 LVR aus und erfüllen folgende Aufgaben:
Sicherheit gewährleisten durch Vermeidung von Zusammenstößen zwischen Luftfahrzeugen Vermeidung von Zusammenstößen zwischen Luftfahrzeugen und Hindernissen auf den Manövrierflächen Wirtschaftlichkeit gewährleisten durch raschen, flüssigen und geordneten Ablauf des Verkehrs
Diese Aufgaben gelten auch für den Controller in VATSIM, wenn auch aus anderen Beweggründen. In dem Wunsch so nahe an die Realität wie möglich zu kommen, sind diese Leitfäden unerlässlich.
Working Delivery Positions
Clearence Delivery is responsible for checking and correcting flightplans of departing aircraft.
Flightplan Structure
Flight plans are documents filed by pilots with the local Civil Aviation Authority prior to departure. They generally include basic information such as departure and arrival points, estimated time en route, alternate airports in case of bad weather, type of flight (whether instrument flight rules or visual flight rules), pilot's name and number of people on board.
For IFR flights, flight plans are used by air traffic control to initiate tracking and routing services. For VFR flights, their only purpose is to provide needed information should search and rescue operations be required.
Routing Types
Aircraft routing types used in flight planning are: Airway, Navaid and Direct. A route may be composed of segments of different routing types.
Airway
Airway routing occurs along pre-defined pathways called Airways. Mostly aircraft are required to fly airways between the departure and destination airports. The rules cover altitude, airspeed, and requirements for entering and leaving the airway (SIDs and STARs).
Navaid
Navaid routing occurs between Navaids (short for Navigational Aids) which are not always connected by airways. Navaid routing is typically only allowed in the continental U.S. If a flight plan specifies Navaid routing between two Navaids which are connected via an airway, the rules for that particular airway must be followed as if the aircraft was flying Airway routing between those two Navaids. Allowable altitudes are covered in Flight Levels.
Direct
Direct routing occurs when one or both of the route segment endpoints are at a latitude/longitude which is not located at a Navaid.
Issuing IFR Routing Clearances
DEL gives routing clearances to all departing aircraft with the following information:
Destination of aircraft SID (= Standard instrument departure) Normally the filed SID is given Initial climb altitude after departure (5000ft) Squawk (Squawk assignments for LOWW are 4600 to 4620) QNH (Local QNH of airport according to latest METAR) CTOT (= Calculated take-off time) Slot time (Normally not used on the VATSIM network)
The bold marked points are mandatory, all other points are optional.
Normal construction of a routing clearence:
Callsign, cleared to XXXX via XXXXX XX departure, (climb initially 5000ft), Squawk 46XX, QNH XXXX
Example:
Austrian 125, cleared to Frankfurt via LUGIM 1C departure, climb initially 5000ft, Squawk 4601, QNH 1020.
After a correct read-back of the pilot hand-off him to next higher position (i.e. GND)
Special Situations (High Traffic, Slots, ...)
Working Ground Positions
Ground is responsible for all movements of aircraft on ground, except the movements on the runway.
Ground takes over responsibility for Delivery if he is not online.
Start-up clearence
Start-up clearence can be given if no other aircraft is taxiing behind the starting-up aircraft and if the take-off is expected in 20 minutes or less.
Austrian 125, start-up approved, (Temperature Minus 3)
Push-back clearence
Push-back clearence can be given if no other aircraft is passing behind and the parking position requires push-back (i.e. position at the gate, … [refer to charts])
Austrian 125, push-back approved”
Combination of both phrases
During low traffic you can use these two phrases together
Austrian 125, start(-up) and push(-back) approved
Taxi Instructions
The easiest way giving taxi instructions to aircraft is to:
Taxi outgoing aircraft on taxiway MIKE (former OSCAR) ASAP. Taxi incoming aircraft on taxiway LIMA (former INDIA) ASAP.
In this way, collision of aircraft should be avoided. Incoming aircraft on runway 16/34 vacating via B3 to B10 should use taxiway DELTA and LIMA (former INDIA).
Ground Traffic Management
In case of a landing on runway 29 no aircraft is allowed to be in the extended runway centreline of runway 29 while landing aircraft is passing above. In this case aircraft should hold at ROMEO, FOXTROTT, SIERRA and GOLF and wait until the incoming aircraft touched down.
You can also advise aircraft to follow behind another aircraft or give way to other taxiing aircraft.
Austrian 125, follow Airbus 320 to holding-point runway 29 Austrian 125, give way to taxiing Airbus 320 passing from left to right
When an aircraft is approaching its assigned holding-point (and clear of possible traffic-conflict) a hand-off to next higher position (i.e. TWR) shall be initiated as soon as possible.
Austrian 125, contact Tower on 119.40
Intersection take-off
Intersection takeoffs can be granted by GND in coordination with TWR and in accordance or on pilot’s request.
Special Situations (High Traffic, Slots, ...)
Working Tower Positions
Tower is responsible for all movements on the runways as well as for all movements within the control zone (CTR), (10NM radius, GND to 2500ft MSL).
Tower is also responsible for ground and delivery if they are not online. He also decides which runways are in use.
ATIS
Bei der ATIS (Automatic Terminal Information Service) handelt es sich um eine automatisch generierte Informationsdurchsage für den Flugverkehr an größeren Flughäfen. Sie wird auf einer eigenen Frequenz in einer Endlosschleife gesendet und soll die aktiven Funkstationen am Flughafen entlasten.
Piloten, die unter IFR an- oder abfliegen, sind verpflichtet, vor dem Erstkontakt mit der zuständigen Flugverkehrskontrollstelle zunächst das ATIS abzuhören. Beim Erstkontakt nennt der Pilot den ATIS-Kennbuchbuchstaben, um dem Controller zu bestätigen, dass er die aktuelle Version abgehört hat.
Bestandteile einer ATIS Meldung:
Name des Flughafens Laufender ATIS-Kennbuchstabe Zeit der Beobachtung des Flugplatzwetters Aktive Landebahn Übergangshöhe Windrichtung und -geschwindigkeit Flugsichten besondere Wetterlagen (z.B. Regen) Hauptwolkenuntergrenze Temperatur und Taupunkt QNH Änderungstrend
Die ATIS wird alle 30 Minuten oder bei signifikanten Wetteränderungen erneuert.
Determination of active Runways
The runway utilization concept for LOWW is based on the fact that the airport layout with it's crossing runways normally does not allow simultaneous approaches to both runways.
Whenever possible runwys 11/29 and 16/34 will be used independently to allow departures on one runway (normally 16 or 29) while using the other runway for landing aircraft: independent runway configuration.
Possible runway configuratiosn are:
ARR RWY 11 / DEP RWY 16 >>> SE winds, if no simultaneous approach possible ARR RWY 34 / DEP RWY 29 >>> calm/NW winds ARR RWY 16 / DEP RWY 29 >>> calm/SW winds ARR RWY 11/16sim. / DEP RWY 16 >>> calm/SE winds, simultaneous approach possible
Simultaneous approaches to runways 11 and 16 are conducted only at Tower's discretion during certain weather conditions (visual reduction of separation). Aircrews are advised to show landing lights as soon as possible.
In case of technical uncertainties during final approach - that might be possible lead to a missed approach - aircrews are asked to inform ATC immediately.
Transition Altitude/Transition Level
Die Transition Altitude (TA) beträgt in Wien immer 5000 ft.
Der Transition Level (TL) ergibt sich in Abhängigkeit zum aktuellen Luftdruck (QNH):
QNH < 0977: TA + 3000 ft. QNH 0978 - 1013: TA + 2000 ft. QNH 1014 - 1050: TA + 1000 ft. QNH 1051 > : TA = TL
Zwischen der TA und dem TL befindet sich der Transition Layer, der einen Sicherheitsabstand von mindestens 1000 ft. zwischen dem "unteren Bereich" (Airport Elevation bis A5000 ft.) und dem "oberen Bereich" (Standard Luftdruck 1013 hPa bis Untergrenze TL) gewährleistet. Dadurch werden gefährliche Überschneidungen zwischen dem an- und abfliegenden Verkehr vermieden.
Runway Separation
The runway utilization concept for LOWW is based on the fact that the airport layout with its crossing runways normally does *not allow simultaneous approaches* to both runways. Whenever possible, runways 11/29 and 16/34 will be used independently to allow departures on one runway (normally 16 or 29) while using the other runway for landing aircraft (independent runway configuration).
Possible runway configurations are: ARR 11, DEP 16: SE winds, if no sim. apps possible* ARR 34, DEP 34: calm/NW winds ARR 16, DEP 29: calm/SW winds ARR 11/16 sim, DEP 16: calm/SE winds, if sim apps possible* * Simultaneous approaches to runways 11 and 16 are possible only at tower's discretion during certain weather conditions (visual reduction of separation). Aircrews are advised to show landing lights as soon as possible. In case of technical uncertainties during final approach that might possibly lead to a missed approach, aircrews are asked to inform ATC immediately.
Departing Traffic
Arriving Traffic
Merging Departing and Arriving Traffic
- Wake Turbulence Separation
- Conditional Clearances
VFR Traffic - Differences
VFR traffic can enter/leave the control zone (CTR) via sector SIERRA (to the south), sector ECHO (to the east) and along the Danube river on the route Klosterneuburg – Freudenau. Maximum altitude in these sectors is 1500ft or according to the VFR charts published online at vacc-sag.org.
VFR flights should be guided into downwind, base and final for landing.
Used phrases:
OE-AGA, enter control zone via VFR route Klosterneuburg – Freudenau, 1500ft or below, QNH 1020, Squawk 4604, report XXXX (i.e. Freudenau) OE-AGA hold (orbit) overhead XXXX (i.e. Freudenau) in XXXX (i.e. 2500ft)
OE-AGA, enter downwind for runway 29, report on downwind OE-AGA, enter base for runway 29, report on base
VFR Flights get their Clearence from Delivery as well. After startup, they will contact Tower for taxi. A possible VFR Clearence could be:
OE-AGA, verlassen Sie die Kontrollzone über Sichtflugstrecke Klosterneuburg, 1500 Fuß oder darunter, QNH 1014, Squawk 4607, Rechtskurve nach dem Abheben so bald als möglich. OE-AGA, leave controlzone via VFR-route Klosterneuburg, 1500 feet or below, QNH 1014, Squawk 4607, right turn after departure as soon as possible.
OE-AGA, steigen sie auf 3500 Fuß, melden Sie Donauturm. OE-AGA, climb 3500 feet, report Donauturm.
Note that Wien Tower/Turm can also be contacted in German.
Separation
Minimum separation between departing / arriving aircraft is 3NM
Use of the word take-off
The word take-off should only be used in combination with the take-off clearence (cleared for take-off). For other phrases use the word departure (ready for departure – NOT ready for take-off).
