# PVD ATCT/TRACON (Version 1.0)
|
||
This is a recreation of the real-world FAA facility PVD for [Endless ATC](https://steamcommunity.com/app/666610).
|
||
The PVD ATCT/TRACON in the real-world covers the Providence International Airport (KPVD) and its surrounding satellites,
|
||
New Bedford (KEWB) and Groton-New London (KGON).
|
||
|
||
All data in this is based on the FAA's data (AIRAC 2102) which it provides to the public for free. Minimum altitudes are based off
|
||
the real-world PVD MVA map (also provided to the public by the FAA).
|
||
|
||
## Airports
|
||
### `KPVD` T.F. Green International Airport
|
||
T. F. Green International Airport is a public international airport in Warwick, Rhode Island, United States, 6 miles
|
||
south of the state's capital and largest city of Providence. Opened in 1931, the airport was named for former Rhode Island
|
||
governor and longtime senator Theodore Francis Green. While KPVD is located underneath Class C airspace in real life,
|
||
this is not implemented.
|
||
|
||
### `KEWB` New Bedford Regional Airport
|
||
New Bedford Regional Airport is a Part 139 Commercial-Service Airport, municipally-owned and available for public use.
|
||
The airport is located three nautical miles northwest of the City of New Bedford, a city in Bristol County,
|
||
Massachusetts, United States.
|
||
|
||
### `KGON` Groton-New London Airport
|
||
Groton–New London Airport is a state-owned public-use airport located three nautical miles southeast of the central
|
||
business district of Groton, a town in New London County, Connecticut, United States.
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### STARs
|
||
In this version of PVD, all 2 STARs are implemented:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>WIPOR2 (at ORW)</li>
|
||
<li>JORDN2</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
All aircraft will arrive inbound direct their gate. From there, you can click on the `APP` button to put them on the
|
||
STAR transition.
|
||
|
||
##### A note on vector segments
|
||
On the JORDN2 arrival, all aircraft leave the final fix (MINNK) on a 015 heading regardless of the runway configuration.
|
||
In a land 16/23 config, aircraft will be on a right base for runway 23 on the WIPOR3 arrival. In the land 5/34 config, aircraft
|
||
will be put on a 10 mile left base for runway 5.
|
||
|
||
#### SIDs
|
||
There are no SIDs at PVD. All aircraft will leave the PVD airspace via PUT or JUMPR.
