Flying in vZME

Arriving Aircraft

  • Please brief for arrival. Review your instrument procedures and become familiar with them while in flight or before flight.
  • Comply with all crossing restrictions on your instrument procedures. If you're unable to comply with a crossing restriction, please promptly notify ATC.
  • If operating text- or receive-only, please navigate first before reading back ATC instructions. Navigation should take first priority. Abbreviated replies for acknowledgment of ATC instructions are encouraged.
  • Please have and brief for the precision approach (ILS) regardless of weather conditions or type of approach in use. If arriving from the northeast or southeast, brief for runway 36R or 18L (depending on landing direction), if inbound from the northwest or southwest, brief for the 36L or 18R approach.
  • Please obtain ATIS information prior to contacting the approach controller. When you are handed off from the center controller to the approach controller, you are not expected to switch right away. Go ahead and obtain the ATIS information quickly and then when you contact the approach controller, advise him you have the letter.
  • Verify integrity of your route of flight via current FAA aeronautical charts and procedures. Don't trust online route generators! If you do notice a discrepancy, notify ATC.
  • If you do not understand an instruction or clearance, please tell ATC you're unable to comply and ask the controller to clarify. Remember, pilots and controllers work as a team.
  • In the event of an accidental or inadvertent disconnect from the VATSIM network, please be cautious about reconnecting to the network.
