=== South Korea LOA ===
See [[RKRR Incheon FIR]] for more information on South Korean airspace.
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK, North Korea) and the Republic of Korea (ROK, South Korea) are at a friendly, peace state on IVAO per the rules and regulations R&R 1.3, as stated below:
<code>1.3 - When simulating real world aviation in the IVAO environment, we will avoid, at any price, to simulate or to become involved in real world ethnical, political and religious conflicts and problems. We also will not allow the simulation of any form of aggression or war. IVAO is an entertaining and educational network where every world citizen, without any exception, is welcome to join the fun and pursue there virtual aviation experience</code>
However, the IVAO XE Division will still respect the prohibited airspace from both RK and ZK covering the DMZ. Meaning, a controller can prohibit VFR flight through crossing the DMZ, but if a pilot requests to fly IFR direct from South Korea to North Korea with a route that will pass over the DMZ prohibited areas, traffic permitting, Pyongyang control can approve this to promote rule 1.3.
In the real world, flights sometimes do take place direct from RKSI to ZKPY. The realistic routes to be filed and flown are:
<code>RKSI NOPIK Y697 GONAV Y644 AGAVO G597 DONVO A326 SANKO B332 TOMUK B332 PONIL W1 GK ZKPY </code>
(Note, NOPIK used if RKSI is using 33L, 33R, or 34. Replace NOPIK With BINIL if 15L, 15R, and 16 are in use)
<code>ZKPY BODOK B332 PONIL B332 TOMUK B332 SANKO A326 DONVO G597 AGAVO Y644 REBIT RKSI </code>
For aircraft transitioning Pyongyang airspace, handoffs shall be made at or before '''KANSU''' from the Y233, B467-Y437, or B332-Z56 airways. North Korea has adapted RVSM airspace and flight levels can be used, however, meters are also sometimes used depending on the controller and pilot.
Direct handoffs can be made at '''MESOV''' to join the N513 or L771 airspace, if Pyongyang Control approves it.
All handoffs to Incheon will be given to RKKP_E_CTR or RKKP_CTR (Incheon Control). DMZ transitions must always be pre-coordinated with both Incheon and Pyongyang, if online.
At no time may war simulation, military exercises, or military aircraft may be done online per IVAO R&R 1.3 due to this politically sensitive area.
Enroute handoffs will be given at '''KANSU'''. Direct handoffs can be made at '''MESOV'''. If aircraft is cruising at a meter level, change to a feet FL. All handoffs from South Korea will be given at flight levels only. Follow the Russian and Chinese LOA guide for meters coordination.
