RADAR-SIMVIDP – Indira Gandhi International Airport
Delhi, India · 28.556°N 77.095°E · elevation 778 ft
Control the traffic at Indira Gandhi International Airport in radar-sim, a free air traffic control simulator that runs in the browser: as tower you issue take-off and landing clearances on 09/27, 10/28, 11L/29R and 11R/29L, as approach you vector and sequence the arrivals onto the ILS. No download, no account.

Runways
| Runway | Length | Width | Surface | True heading |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 09/27 | 2,816 m (9,239 ft) | 45 m | asphalt | 092° / 272° |
| 10/28 | 3,813 m (12,510 ft) | 45 m | asphalt | 105° / 285° |
| 11L/29R | 4,170 m (13,681 ft) | 45 m | asphalt | 104° / 284° |
| 11R/29L | 4,430 m (14,534 ft) | 60 m | asphalt | 104° / 284° |
The airport has 4 runways. The parallel runways 09/27, 10/28, 11L/29R and 11R/29L: 11L/29R – 11R/29L (381 m) lies closer than 760 m and is worked as one runway, arrivals to both ends separated like on a single final; 09/27 – 10/28 (788 m) allows segregated operations only (760–1035 m): approaches on one and departures or missed approaches on the other, but no simultaneous approaches; the other combinations are far enough apart (1035 m) for independent parallel approaches. The runways in use depend on the traffic level and the wind: one (the best headwind among the longest, here 11R/29L with 4,430 m) on low, two on medium, and on high every runway with a headwind component and at most 20 kt crosswind.
Airspace
The simulated control zone is a circle of 5 NM around the field with extensions along the instrument runways, up to 3,500 ft. In approach sessions arrivals check in over an entry fix and are vectored or sent direct to the initial approach fix of the runway in use; in tower sessions a virtual approach controller does this and hands them over established on the ILS inside 10 NM.
