Ensure VATSIM ATIS Information Policy compliance #36

Closed pedro2555 closed 5 years ago

pedro2555 commented 6 years ago

For ATIS Information: ATIS information must contain only Aerodrome Name or Identifier, ATIS Information letter, Observation Time, Weather, Active Runway, Expected Approach Type, Frequency to contact first and appropriate aviation-safety related operational information. Operational information should include only information that is applicable in the VATSIM environment. Real-world operational information that cannot be effectively implemented on VATSIM (e.g., lighting and/or equipment outages) should not be included in any ATIS information. Controllers should attempt to limit the ATIS Information to as few lines as possible.

All information provided that is not Aerodrome Name or Identifier, ATIS Information letter, Observation Time, Weather, Active Runway, Expected Approach Type, Frequency to contact first, is operational related.

While possible, we do not have available features such as NDB / VOR out of service, for example, for this exact reason.

Controllers should attempt to limit the ATIS Information to as few lines as possible.

Technically, we only return one line.
