Tower, approach, ground, and ATIS

Published rows are the frequencies stored for ZBAA. Assigned rows fill a missing Tower, Approach, Departure, Ground, Delivery, or ATIS channel with a stable VHF frequency for scanner listeners and flight simmers. Assigned channels are listen-only until you confirm the chart.

FacilityMHzSourceUsage note
Tower118.500PublishedBEIJING EAST TWR: Published Tower frequency at 118.500 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.
Tower118.600PublishedRWY 01/19 TWR: Published Tower frequency at 118.600 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.
Approach119.600PublishedBEIJING APP AREA 1: Published Approach frequency at 119.600 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for arrival sequencing and radar vectors.
Approach119.700PublishedBEIJING APP AREA 4: Published Approach frequency at 119.700 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for arrival sequencing and radar vectors.
Departure124.900AssignedAssigned VHF for airband scanner listeners and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers. The open record has no Departure frequency, so 124.900 MHz is the stable channel for the initial climb and the SID handoff after tower. Listen only, and confirm the chart before you transmit.
Ground121.700PublishedGND EAST: Published Ground frequency at 121.700 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for taxi instructions on the movement area.
Delivery121.600PublishedBEIJING DEL: Published Delivery frequency at 121.600 MHz. Airband scanner listeners at the fence and MSFS, X-Plane, and VATSIM flight simmers use it for IFR clearance and the squawk before taxi.
ATIS127.600PublishedBEIJING ATIS: Published ATIS frequency at 127.600 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).
