Acording to IVAO Rules & Regulations, a Guest Controller Approval is required in order to a member log in on a FRA restricted position of a foreign Division.

The Portuguese Division is a member of the GCA program so in order to apply for a GCA you must contact our Training Department so they will enter in contact with you in order to establish an individual procedure.

Keep in mind that the candidate must have a perfect knowledge of our local procedures and good knowledge of the Portuguese language.

Other factors in order to get your GCA are:

  • being at least an ADC with two hundred (200) hours logged as controller;
  • a good knowledge of the Portuguese cities and relevant ground landmarks due to VFR flights (when applying for a Domestic GCA);
  • a maximum of 2 (two) different GCAs;

After successful theoretical and practical exams with an authorized examiner, you will have a remark in your member profile.
