Summary

There is a new approach position called "Southern Mil" that has been established, covering RAF Odiham (EGVO) and RAF Benson (EGUB).

New Position

Callsign: Southern Mil
Logon: STHRN_APP
Frequency: 134.035 MHz

Note

Southern Mil is a Military Approach position, and therefore requires a Military Approach or Area Radar endorsement to control.

Southern Mil controls both RAF Odiham (EGVO) and RAF Benson (EGUB) top-down in the absence of any local approach unit, before Swanwick Mil.

Whilst Southern Mil may provide UK FIS, both EGVO and EGUB are not notified LARS providers.
