International events
Japan's airspace shares borders with the airspaces of many other countries, including:
- China and Taiwan (Shanghai and Taipei FIRs),
- Korea (Pyongyang and Incheon FIRs),
- the Philippines (Manila FIR),
- Russia (Khabarovsk, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and Vladivostok FIRs) and
- United States (Anchorage Oceanic and Oakland Oceanic FIRs).
We take full advantage of this on VATSIM and hold events with our neighbouring VATSIM divisions.
