VFR-Night in the Bremen FIR
VFR-Night is all about visual flying. Every sixth Friday from 19:30 to 22:00 local time, controllers open up selected airports within the Bremen FIR, bringing real VFR feeling to the VATSIM network.
This time, VFR-Night takes you to Schleswig-Holstein.
The region offers a long Baltic Sea and North Sea coast, beautiful islands, and endless inland scenery – the perfect setting for varied VFR flights. Recommended airfields include Sylt (EDXW), Flensburg (EDXF), Husum (EDXJ), St. Michael (EDXM), Grube (EDHB) and Lübeck (EDHL). Whether you’re gliding over Sylt’s beaches, exploring the North Frisian coastline, or approaching the city of Lübeck – you’ll get that true holiday feeling mixed with northern German charm right in the cockpit.
With each event, the location changes: sometimes it’s the coast with its islands, other times it’s the inland with lakes, rivers, and wide open landscapes. This keeps every VFR-Night varied, exciting, and unmistakably North German.
Whether it’s short hops between fields, pattern work at the runways, sightseeing along the coastline, or relaxed tours over northern Germany – VFR-Night is the perfect opportunity to discover the northernmost state of Germany in a casual and friendly atmosphere. It’s also a great chance for both pilots and controllers to sharpen their VFR skills within the framework of mentoring programs.
So climb into your aircraft, enjoy northern Germany from above, take advantage of the hands-on learning opportunities VFR-Night provides, and soak up the laid-back, coastal atmosphere that makes this event so unique.
