Um...VFR tower guys (the subject of this subthread
is non-radar towers) don't give vectors.



Is there an official definition of a "VFR tower" or a "non-radar tower"?


A VFR tower is a tower with no radar at all in the cab or a DBRITE that
has not been certified for separation services. An example of a VFR
tower are all contract and non federal towers. Grand Forks, ND is VFR,
Van Nuys is VFR, etc. Almost all class D towers are VFR.
