tupolev154 0 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Hello It seems that it's not possible to create an accepted (PFPX) flightplan (including SID) from LOWW to LSZH. Can somebody explain to me why there are no airways over Middle and Eastern Austria (except some in Lower Airspace) and why SIDs cannot be used? Thank you for informing me!

2302ts 6 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Hey Thats because there are no airways anymore in Austria since November 2016, Austrian airspace was changed to a "Free Route Airspace" (actually together with Slovenia, its now SAXFRA, Slovenian Austrian Cross border Free Route Airspace). Thats means only DIRECTS over Austria; there are some exceptions for traffic into and out of Vienna, Bratislava, Lubljanja and I think Munich - basically "mandatory direct routes" are in place there. Some more detailed info here: https://eaip.austrocontrol.at/lo/170428/enr_6.htm Chapter 6.8 is a chart with all the usable fixes. Hope that helps, lg Raffael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
