Local regulations
TWR/AFIS
In real life Säve is closed at night between 2200 and 0700 local time, except for ambulance flights. Between 2200 and 0700 TWR service is not available, and instead AFIS is provided. On VATSIM, traffic is of course welcome around the clock, but be aware that AFIS may be provided if you fly here at night.
Be advised that when AFIS is provided you will only receive information about other traffic, as well as meteorological information, but no separation is provided.
Start-up and IFR clearance
Start-up permission is compulsory for IFR departures.
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.
Take-off and climb
Contact Göteborg Control when airborne, unless otherwise instructed.
Flight planning
If departing towards ALSIE VOR (ALS), flight plan via VADIN M/UM852.
