Flight Information Center (FIC)
Introduction
The Flight Information Center provides VFR traffic with info service and takes care of the alarm service in the Austrian airspace. The info service contains the information necessary to safely conduct a VFR flight by providing weather information, informing about hazards en route as well as giving out traffic information.
The area covered by FIC (Callsign Wien Information, or short, Wien Info) is split into two sectors, Wien Information North (134.625) and Wien Information South (124.400). ???
TBD: Add Chart here
On VATSIM, we conduct FIC by using the logon LOVV_I_CTR, on frequency 124.400 only.
