Lookup the CTAF frequency for VATSIM and tune the frequency on one of the COM radios.
The CTAF frequency for the selected airport will be displayed along with options to tune the CTAF frequency
- SET COM1/2 ACTIVE - Moves the active frequency to standby and sets the active frequency to CTAF
- SET COM1/2 STANDBY - Sets the standby frequency to CTAF
If the CTAF frequency is not found, it displays the following message:
Refer to the airport charts for the CTAF frequency
Use tower if CTAF is not designated
If non-towered and CTAF is not designated use 122.9
To include as many airports as possible, this widget will check the VATSIM API, then if the CTAF was not found it checks the AviationAPI.
The VATSIM AIP API includes the VATSIM CTAF to be used when ATC is offline, including larger airports that do not have a designated CTAF frequency IRL. Many of the smaller airports that use CTAF IRL have not been setup in the VATSIM AIP database.
The AviationAPI Airports API has the IRL designated CTAF frequencies. These are mostly smaller airports used for GA operations.
Note: CTAF on VATSIM is currently for US airports only
