Entry is subject to prior N'Djamena control authorization on 119.7MHz or alternate 118.1MHz. All unauthorized aircraft will be forced to land at N'Djamena. It is strongly advised that crews of aircraft flying within a sector less than 80 NM to the North, if equipped with SSR transponder should display code A2000.
