The flight information service is provided to all aircraft in contact on the 122.505 Mhz frequency, regarding the conditions of use of the runway, circuit in use of reported traffic, barometric pressure values and surface wind. This service is carried out by qualified professional personnel, in direct “point to point” telephone contact with the radar operators of the Pisa CTR.
The service covers the entire operation of the airport.
The AFIS operator opens and closes flight plans; upon the pilot’s request, they send flight plans and confirm their acceptance by the competent authority.
Available instrumental meteorological data, such as surface wind direction and speed, atmospheric pressure (QNE – QNH), outside temperature, and dew point, are communicated by the AFIS operator to all aircraft in radio contact. Any weather bulletins (METAR and/or TAF) will be provided upon request through the relevant weather office or the Enav Self-Briefing service.
