Survey flights during the nights of Nov. 1 to 3

At BER, survey flights conducted by the German air traffic control (DFS) are scheduled for the nights of November 1 to 3. A relatively quiet twin-engine propeller aircraft, the Beechcraft Super King Air 350, will be used for these flights. During the survey flights, all departure routes and approach procedures (except ILS) will be flown, with certain regions often being overflown consecutively and at low altitudes. Overflights of populated areas will be avoided as much as possible, depending on the prescribed flight profiles.

As usual, the survey flights will take place at night, as daytime air traffic does not permit them. Therefore, the flights are generally exempt from nighttime flight restrictions. The survey is required by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) at regular intervals.
