Coleman Rader

The Approach Control room is situated in the Coleman Tower. It used to be at Heidelberg Army Airfield and when it shut down, it was moved to Coleman . First the facility used the station call sign : Heidelberg Approach, but was then renamed Coleman Radar. Approach control was done since the early 1970s as conventional Approach. Radar approch was established on the 12 June 2002. We are the only U.S Army Unit in Germany which does it and has an Appoach airspace.

We provide App Controll  for the whole Rhein Neckar Region including the following military and civilian airfields:
