Cyprus ATC
Anyone here perhaps a civilian ATC working in Cyprus???
I would like to know if Larnaca Approach is still procedural or do they now have radar. Another question is do the ATC's there work TWR/APP combined or is it seperate positions.
I could only find a really old website which I dont think has been updated for a couple of years where it says Larnaca approach would be getting new state of the art radar soon (this was in 2002).
I know that ACC is radar and based in Nicosia.
I am also interested in the working conditions / pay for working in Cyprus. If any cypriot ATC could PM me, I would really appreciate it.

From what I have been told today, Larnaca is Procedural Approach.
They're still planning to get a radar there.... Then then again they were planning to get it installed way before i started working as an ATCA in Cy.
The ATCO's at LCA do both the TWR/APP job .
Not sure on the working conditions/pay, although there is a requirement to speak Greek as well as the usual English, before they'll employ you.
Hope this helps.
