EGKK -> LOWI + Update

Hi,

I have not posted in a little while as i have been busy on other projects. I have done a few other flights and had a few ATC days that I have not logged as they were not very eventful.

EGKK -> LOWI
This was a nice flight I have been trying to get right for a while, the problem with this route is;
1: Fuel
2: Mountains

Getting there is not a problem of course but the problem this time was crashing into the mountains (My apologies to any skiers). Next time I shall fly to Munich then from there to LOWI. I think its about time I downloaded the routing information for that airport.


UPDATE:
I have been getting a LOT of help with the routing for EGSS I shall be providing links to the documents ill be using for routing (The published routes available from the CAA), Thanks Mike! Anyone intending on visiting EGSs whilst I am on ATC, please ask which contact point you should be coming in to if you don't have the routes.

There is a holding at ABBOT which I will be making a lot of use of so expect that if you visit me and there is a queue then I will probably use ABBOT holding to get you down to approach altitude.

Lastly I have worked out how to use the ATIS recording system so When I am on ATC I will update the ATIS recording every hour and assign a sequence identifier to it so if you have listened to this please tell me what information you have when you contact then I know if you have heard my message or just looked up METAR for yourself (which some people do).

If anyone has suggestions how I can improve my ATC skills, things you would like me to do differently or any special handling then feel free to contact me via this blog, on the mumble server or even post a comment.

All comments are welcome.
