FacilityMHzSourceUsage note
Tower118.800PublishedGokcen Tower: Published Tower frequency at 118.800 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for landing and takeoff clearances on local control.
Approach121.400AssignedAssigned VHF for airband scanner listeners and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers. The open record has no Approach frequency, so 121.400 MHz is the stable channel for arrival sequencing and radar vectors. Listen only, and confirm the chart before you transmit.
Departure126.250AssignedAssigned VHF for airband scanner listeners and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers. The open record has no Departure frequency, so 126.250 MHz is the stable channel for the initial climb and the SID handoff after tower. Listen only, and confirm the chart before you transmit.
Ground121.580PublishedGokcen Ground (Main-2): Published Ground frequency at 121.580 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for taxi instructions on the movement area.
Ground121.750PublishedGokcen Ground (Main-1): Published Ground frequency at 121.750 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for taxi instructions on the movement area.
Delivery129.950AssignedAssigned VHF for airband scanner listeners and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers. The open record has no Delivery frequency, so 129.950 MHz is the stable channel for IFR clearance and the squawk before taxi. Listen only, and confirm the chart before you transmit.
ATIS130.250PublishedD-ATIS for Arrivals: Published ATIS frequency at 130.250 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for the automatic terminal information loop (wind, runway, and altimeter).
ATIS128.200PublishedD-ATIS for Departures: Published ATIS frequency at 128.200 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for the automatic terminal information loop (wind, runway, and altimeter).
