Aerodrome Information
Vagar AFIS is not a control position and only provides general aerodrome, traffic, and weather information. Vagar AFIS does, however, control startup requests.
Taxiing

Lining Up / Taking Off
Whilst Vagar AFIS does not control the traffic on its frequency, it does still have tools to manage traffic flow.
You are not permitted to enter a runway or take off unless you are told the runway is "free". If the runway is "occupied", you must wait and not obstruct any aircraft in receipt of a "runway is free" advisory.
You may be told that the runway is "free for line-up". In this case, you may choose to line-up or continue holding, but must not take off until told the runway is "free".
