Traffic
How much traffic an aerodrome can have and still be an AFIS aerodrome is not internationally regulated and is subject to national regulation by the relevant CAA- The traffic amount at AFIS aerodromes therefore varies a lot. The type of traffic also varies. In some countries only VFR flights are allowed. But in may both IFR, VFR, military and so on are allowed. There are no international restrictions on what types of flight an AFIS aerodrome can service.
