Local regulations

IFR clearance

Request start-up and clearance from Landvetter Ground and state stand position and latest received ATIS letter.

Note that unless otherwise instructed, aircraft cleared via SID shall climb to 5000 ft.

This altitude is not included in the clearance, because it is stated in the SID charts.

Push-back is generally required at stands 5 – 40 and 68 – 78. In real life, push-back at Landvetter is handled between the flight crew and the ground engineer (the pilots are not required to get an approval for push-back by ATC). However, on VATSIM you should contact Ground to request push-back.

Taxi

Unless otherwise instructed by ATC, the standard taxi routes (arrival, departure RWY 03, departure RWY 21) shall be followed.

Note: Taxi clearances may not include the complete taxi route, as pilots are expected to follow the standard taxi routes.

When passing 2000 ft contact Göteborg Control on frequency 124.200, unless otherwise instructed.
