- In this video I'm going to talk about Airways or "Highways in the sky" and look at some of the important things you need to know about them.

I was thinking when i searched for a good tutorial on fsx, I've searched so long and I was thinking: if I know how to play fsx, I'm going to do a good tutorial myself. And then I found you, there is no way I can improve you! You're tutorials are just so good!
+xander de jong Never say never! The flight sim community are always looking to improve so if you feel there's a particular subject you can talk about and help others with then do it! :) There's still plenty of simmers out there who are WAY WAY more experienced and smarter than I am lol
Thank you very much, i think that low altitude airways are also called victor airways.
+silo granz Yep they certainly are, and high altitude are also known as Jet Airways. I think that naming convention originated in America and is still used today, so you have "V123" and "J456" airway names. Not sure if those names are used elsewhere in the world.
Hello. When does the airplane have to follow the airway and when does not? I assume that jets, airliners etc. needs to follow the routes, but what about small planes and short flights? In Your example if we wish to fly directly from city to city (because of shorter flight) - can we do this? And 2nd question - a little connected with this subject - are there any areas on the sky not controlled by any ground tower? (like on the ocean?) How the planes does not crash then? Thank You in advance for Your reply and thank You for all Your videos.
Larger aircraft usually fly by IFR rules, so ATC tells them where to go, what airways to use etc. Small planes fly using VFR, so they can go where they want a lot of the time and they don't fly as high. As for uncontrolled airspace like oceans, planes can be tracked by Satellites and they often communicate with other planes who are close enough to speak to ATC. So ATC will basically say to a plane... "Hey American Airlines, you've got a British Airways about 50 miles ahead of you, could you give them a call and ask if they're ok?" The American Airlines then contacts the BA plane, BA says they're fine then the AA speaks to ATC again to let them know that the BA is responding and flying normally.
1. Think of airways like highways that connect places. You start with a SID from your home to the highway and stay on the highway and finally leave it via a STRA/Transition. In most countries it is mandatory to file a FP with airways but ATC can and will give directs. Some airspace (like Austria) are a FRA (=Freeroute airspace). You navigate form FIX to FIX/VOR/NDB. Eurocontrol wants more countries in Europe to employ this and so far quite a few have. Austria and Slovenia are the only one that have a 24h full airspace FRA. Even short flights have to follow airways (if filed a normal IFR flight plan). VFR flights are different. You would file a route including towns and landmarks. It odes mean that you gave to follow this route but in comparison to IFR you can choose your altitude freely (if there are no restrictions or airspace you must not penetrate).
2. I can't think of any place where the airspace is uncontrolled. In places with nor radar coverage (eg. in the Atlantic/pacific/Indian ocean) you would use oceanic procedures. You would ask for clearance prior to entering oceanic airspace, get assigned a speed and altitude and after that are allowed to commence your flight. in busy areas tracks (=predefined group of fixes) would be punished which ease operations. they communicate via HF radio or CPDLC.

What is difference between airway and ats route?
