Tegal and VATSIM

[EasternT3]

I'm looking at getting tegal in the next lot of airports I buy to fly some Air Berlin routes, but I fly permanently on VATSIM, do VATSIM allow flights in and out of Tegal with it being shut in real life

Hi,

 

Here is a post with some good info on the subject directly from VATSIM.  By the sounds of it, VATSIM pilots can and will still fly in to Tegel, as they still do Tempelhof, however there will be no IFR guidance for approaches and listed approaches and departures cannot be cleared.

"Starting on November 9th (2020), EDDT will be closed on VATSIM. This means that we cannot allow IFR arrivals or departures in EDDT. If you still want to fly to Tegel, you can only do so after an IFR cancellation, below airspace Charlie and on Unicom. Even if you have approach procedures for EDDT (STARs, transitions), we will not clear you for them, as they are no longer free of conflicts with the new BER procedures. Instead, we will try to get you into uncontrolled airspace as early as possible to keep our approach sector clear."

 

 

Cheers,
