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

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.

WIEN SCHWECHAT
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.

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.

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.
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.

LINZ HOERSCHING
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.

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.

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.

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.

SALZBURG MAXGLAN
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.

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.

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.
