PRIVILEGES OF AERODROME CONTROL VISUAL (ADV) RATING HOLDERS Air traffic controllers who have obtained the aerodrome control visual (ADV) rating at an aerodrome that publishes instrument approach and departure procedures, or air traffic controllers who move to an aerodrome with published instrument approach and departure procedures, should undergo a specific rating training at a certified initial training organisation to acquire competence equivalent to the aerodrome control (ADC) rating. The specific rating training should address the differences between ADV and ADC. For those air traffic controllers, the licence will contain the ADC rating following the successful completion of the specific rating training.
