Operational procedures

6.4.1 Airport information

If you are going to visit an airport, it is important to make sure that it is open.

You should also look at the local rules for using the airport. The VFR Flight Guide

is a good help for this, especially if you know how to interpret the information.

6.4.1.1 Opening hours and service hours

The starting point could be a flight to Viborg Flyveplads EKVB.

Go to https://aim.naviair.dk/

Type ekvb (Viborg Airfield) in the search field.

Open the document with “Text” at the back.

Points 1 and 2: the location of the airfield.

Point 3: the airfield is approved for Visual

Meteorological Conditions, meaning that
the weather must be suitable for VFR

flights in order to use the airfield.

The airfield may also be used for VFR

night flights.

Point 4: Service hours (can be difficult to
interpret).

There are a number of abbreviations:

AD = Aerodrome - in Danish: flyvepladsen

ADO = Aerodrome Office - in Danish: lufthavnskontoret

ARO = Aerodrome Reporting Office, the reporting office. This is where we can

report our arrival or go in and report that we intend to fly from the airfield. If
the office is not open, there is self-service.
