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.<br>
 
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.<br>

====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):<br>
 
<br>
 
QNH      < 0977: TA + 3000 ft.<br>
 
QNH 0978 - 1013: TA + 2000 ft.<br>
 
QNH 1014 - 1050: TA + 1000 ft.<br>
 
QNH 1051 >    : TA = TL<br>
 
<br>
 
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.<br>

WIEN SCHWECHAT<br>
 
The airport of the Austrian capital Vienna is located south-east of the city and is connected by a train (called CAT – City Airport Train) as well as a motorway to the viennese city center. The airport is famous as a east-west junction with over 15.9 Million passengers a year. The profitable Eastern Europe routes are provided by the homecarrier Austrian.<br>
 
<br>
 
In the year 2005 the “Flughafen Wien AG” started to build the so called SKYLINK, an additional terminal in the eastern part of the airport which offers space for 91 check-in counters as well as 51 additional gates (5 of them are A380-approved). In the year 2006 the new air traffic control tower was opened. With it’s height of 109 meters, it’s the tallest control tower in Europe. It can be seen from far away, so it got a landmark for the airport.<br>
 
<br>
 
Terminal 1 offers space for the carriers of Star Alliance, Aeroflot and Emirates. Terminal 1A is located right opposite of Terminal 1 and is a temporarily building to bridge the capacity constraint until the new SKYLINK Terminal will be finished in 2008. In this Terminal there are mainly located no-frill airlines, such as NIKI, Air Berlin, Germanwings and so on.
 
<br>
 
The airport offers 2 asphalt runways with orientations 11/29 (3.500 meters) and 16/34 (3.600 meters). All of them are equipped with a ILS system, 2 of them offer CAT IIIb. <br>
 
 
 
===LOWL===
 
LINZ HOERSCHING<br>
 
Originally, Linz airport was located at the industrial harbour, where today’s gliding airfield is located at. In 1938 the airport was relocated to its present position “Hoersching” due to the construction of “Chemie Linz”, a big chemical industry factory. During world war 2 it was used as air force base. In 1956 the civilian passenger traffic started. Until the terminal building was erected in 1976 all flights from and to Linz airport were handled on the military apron which wasn’t very comfortable.<br>
 
<br>
 
Today’s airport equipment is state-of-the-art and offers a 3000 meters long and 60 meters wide asphalt runway which is equipped for an ILS CAT IIIb approach on RWY27 and an ILS CAT I approach on RWY09. Due to this fact, the airport is open and certified for all type of aircrafts. Until 1989 Linz was able to welcome the supersonic aircraft Concorde several times. Furthermore a 600 meters long grass runway is available mostly for general aviation aircrafts.<br>
 
<br>
 
In the southern part of the airport the air base “Vogler” is located which is the home base for two Hercules C130 aircraft of the Austrian military. In the year 2006 the airport was used by 762.000 passengers. Cargo plays an important role in Linz as 32.000 tons of cargo was handeld. The yearly number of movements varies between 13.500 and 14.500.<br>
 
<br>
 
In the past years Linz was found as an ideal airport for no-frills airlines like Ryanair, Niki, HLX, especially for their holiday flights. The newest route is offered by Air Berlin and Fly Niki and connects Linz to Nuremberg. The network carriers Austrian and Lufthansa also operate out of Linz.<br>

SALZBURG MAXGLAN<br>
 
Welcome to Salzburg. Salzburg – W.A. Mozart has become Austria´s second largest airport since the days when there was only a grass runway and some wooden barracks around 1926; the airport is named after the famous composer. The airport, located in the Maxglan district is nowadays not only a great destination for low-cost carriers, but also a destination for some well known companies from all over the world. Salzburg is having its peak time during the winter-charter season.<br>
 
<br>
 
The technical equipment of the airport is state of the art and the arrival as well as the departure procedures can be quite challenging for some pilots. Salzburg has a CAT I ILS DME approach procedure. Because of its unique proximity to Mount Untersberg, runway 34 offers the possibility for a circling approach.
 
<br><br>
 
With the beginning of the year 2000, besides many other GA companies, Red Bull bought the eastern part of the airfield and built two huge hangars - made entirely of glass – for its own airplanes. These hangars are better known today as hangars 7+8 – the aircrafts and the hangar parked there are not only a visitor attraction but they’re also the home of Red Bulls air race group showing jets, choppers and long gone oldtimers.<br>
 
 
 
===LOWI===
 
INNSBRUCK KRANEBITTEN<br>
 
The airport was opened 1925 and is located on the west side of Innsbruck near the river Inn just about 3.5km away from the centre. Innsbruck became famous of his difficult west approach and was a long time one of the five most dangerous airports in the world. Since 29 February 1964, when an Bristol Brittania 312 (British Eagle Airlines) crashed into a southern mountain Glungezer (2610m), only special trained pilots are allowed to land in Innsbruck.
 
<br><br>
 
Also specialities in Innsbruck are the 2 LOC/DME approaches. The OEV locator from the east has a 5 degrees offset to the runway, compared to the OEJ locator from the west which is leading the aircraft north over the airport. Both instrument approaches end latest at AB (Absam NDB) where the visual part begins.
 
<br><br>
 
Innsbruck is the base of Austrian Arrows (former Tyrolean Airways), Tyrolean Jet Services and Welcome Air. In the year 2005 the airport handled 40.389 movements and 738.296 passengers. That’s an increase of 2.57% for movements and 1.40% for passengers compared to the year 2004.
 
<br><br>
 
In winter time the traffic is increasing significantly (more than 100 movements/day), mostly on Saturdays, as a result of the charter flights from Europe and Russia to the great ski region Tyrol in the middle of the Alps in Austria.<br>
 
 
 
===LOWK===
 
KLAGENFURT WOERTHERSEE<br>
 
Klagenfurt Airport is located a couple of miles NE of Lake Wörthersee right in the heart of Carinthia in Austria. Like many other major airports in Austria in the 1950s, Klagenfurt had only one grass runway. In 1958 the concrete runway was built. During the Seventies, years with a strong economy, Carinthia became a more important holiday destination, thought flying wasn’t the first choice of travel of people then. Nevertheless it became necessary to build the first passenger terminal, in 1981 the runway was extended to its current length and in 2003 a CAT II/III landing system was added.<br>
 
<br>
 
At the beginning Klagenfurt was only serviced by Austrias home carrier Austrian Airlines. Today Klagenfurt/Alpe-Adria-Airport, as it is called, is the destination of many low-cost carriers such as Ryanair, Hapag Lloyd Express and Thomsonfly.<br>
 
<br>
 
South of the airport the Karawanken mountains are located which give the airport a unique location. Klagenfurt is also home of a lot of General Aviation companies as well as flying schools and Parachuters Clubs since the old grass runway still exists.<br>
 
<br>
 
During the yearly Beach Volleyball Grand Slam Klagenfurt is also a seasonal destination of well known airlines from all over Europe.<br>
