Does anyone have any experience setting up ATC from Tempelhof so that it mimics the air corridors of yore? When I was a kid in 1974 I flew THF-FRA on a Pan Am 727 a few times and I want to recreate that...

By setting up ATC what do you mean exactly, the frequencies for the airport? Or changing ATC boundaries? Adding/Changing frequencies is very easy in ADE, and you can use Edit Voicepack to create the names, but I don't know how to edit control areas.

Set up the parameters for how the routings/headings/waypoints and atc communication protocols were for the three corridor setups. Has anyone done this yet? |

I've never seen anything like that, Calclassics would have if anything but I can't say I've read about anything like that over there. It would be cool to have retro ATC boundaries.

I suspect its not possible, but would love to hear if it is. I changed the Flight Level of some of my 1979 flightplans to 10,000ft into / out of Templehof to reflect the flying of this era

There's no real way to do it with default ATC.
It's possible to create the routes and altitude/speed restrictions with AIG Traffic Controller. I've been meaning to do some experimenting, but I haven't gotten around to it.

One must assume nobody remained at that altitude all the way to FRA or MUC, for example. I have always been curious as to what the go ahead was from the controllers for that. It's something they had to be very precise about, no doubt. And upon corridor entry also. My understanding is that most traffic used the central of the three corridors, so as to minimize the time required to fly in one -- since it was the shortest of the thre, and even though it created a less than perfect straight line between Berlin and many destinations, it was often the fastest route. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin_Air_Safety_Center |
