Xin Chao - Hello and Welcome to Vietnam
Welcome to Ho Chi Minh Flight Infomation Region (FIR) Wiki Page for Vietnam Airspace, part of the IVAO XE East Asia Region Division! These sets of pages should help provide you with all the information you need while controlling Ho Chi Minh Airspace
Note: Please keep in mind, IVAO stresses that our network is at global peace without any conflicts between nations. We also strive to simulate realism. So, while it is ok to respect the prohibited airspace at the DMZ between the DPRK and ROK, on IVAO, direct flights are permissible between the two nations. At no time shall any war simulation be performed in Korean airspace as this is a huge violation against IVAO rules and regulations. That being said, enjoy Ho Chi Minh Control

En Route and Cruise
RVSM Airspace
Ho Chi Minh has RVSM Airspace From FL190 to FL410 and as such follows standard semi-circular rules in feet (FL).
360-179 odd flight levels (ex. FL290, FL310, FL230)
180-359 even flight levels (ex. FL300, FL240, FL380)
Transition Altitude
All of Ho Chi Minh FIR Airports has a transition altitude of 18000 feet and transition level of FL100.
Ho Chi Minh FIR uses QNH (standard 1013 hectopascals or miilibars)
Transponder Codes
En route transponder codes range from 3200-3277
Domestic Departures and Arrivals will get a range of 6000-6777
International Departures and Arrivals will get a range of 5000-5777
Avoid using squawk codes beginning with 40xx,00xx,20xx these are reserved for Manila and Singapore FIR
China LOA and Meters
All handoffs to Chinese airspace will be given to Sanya Control (ZJSA_CTR) on an airway at 5 waypoints and at a meters flight level to meet Chinese RVSM airspace requirements.
Traffic routed North Middle West will be on the M771,A1,P901,L642 airways and a handoff shall be initiated by BUNTA, ITBAM ,EXOTO , DONDA
Traffic routed Middle West will be on the M771 or N892 airway and a handoff shall be initiated by DONDA, MONBO
All aircraft entering Chinese airspace must be assigned a meters altitude by Ho Chi Minh control prior to initiating a handoff to Sanya or sent to UNICOM. Use the chart below to match the nearest meters level to the flight level they are cruising at or filed in Korean airspace. For example, if they are cruising at FL360, assigned 11,000 meters which will translate to FL361/36,100ft. When an aircraft enters Korean airspace from China, assign a cruise flight level nearest to their meters level as Chinese controllers normally do not assign a FL prior to handing off to Vietnamese controllers.
Philphines,Singapore LOA
Manila and Singapore has adapted RVSM airspace, the same as Ho Chi Minh airspace. Handoffs are normally done at mandatory reporting waypoints on a mix of RNAV and high altitude airways to WSJC_CTR and RPHI_CTR is the primary ATC position on IVAO, but if WSJC,RPHI_CTR is online, then all handoffs are made to them.
MESOX from L628 Airway
PANDI from N500 Airway
AKMON from M768 Airway
MELAS from N892 Airway
DUDIS from M771 and L644 Airway
ESPOB from L642 Airway
IPRIX from L637,M753,M755,M765 Airway
IGARI from N891 Airway
If Ho Chi Minh control prefers to give a direct, the direct points shall be to one of the above mention handoff points prior to entering Manila and Singapore airspace.
