안녕하세요 - Annyong Haseyo

Welcome to the RKRR Incheon Flight Information Region (FIR) wiki page for South Korea's 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 South Korean 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 Incheon Control

China LOA and Meters

All handoffs to Chinese airspace will be given to Shanghai Control (ZSHA_CTR) on an airway at 2 waypoints and at a meters flight level to meet Chinese RVSM airspace requirements.

Exceptions between these two waypoints can be made at the waypoint IKADI (Chinese airspace) direct to PALSA or TOLIS (Korean airspace) to join the Y655 or aircraft inbound Jeju (RKPC) can be given the TOLIS 1T (runway 25) or TOLIS 1P (runway 07) arrival.
