Sussex ATC Frequencies

I must apologise for not posting recently as I have been very busy with work etc. I have received a question on frequencies by a reader living 15 miles south of Gatwick.

Just in case you don't have the Gatwick frequencies here they are:

Approach Primary 126.825
Approach 118.95
129.02
135.575
ATIS 136.525
Clearances 121.95
Ground 121.8
Tower 124.225 Primary
134.225

As regards airways frequencies, you are right underneath the 'WILLO' sector which extends from surface to FL175 frequency: 133.175.

Above this are sectors S18 FL175 to FL255 (extending to FL335 over the channel).
Then S25 FL255 to FL305 and finally S1 FL305 to FL660.

I think there was also a question regarding oceanic clearance frequencies. There are two frequencies, one for aircraft registered west of 30W ie. US aircraft etc. which is 123.95 and for aircraft registered East of 30W ie. european aircraft the frequency is 127.65.

Well I hope thats useful, thats all I have time for right now. Please keep posting and let me know what you think about the site and what else you might like to see here. Thanks all, Mark.

Many thanks to your response to my question! My name is Caz, the person who lives south of Gatwick and just a few miles from the South Downs. I have quite a few questions but am a bit pushed for time right now as i have a young daughter who is getting a little bored! but many thanks for answering my initial question, it is extremely helpful and i think this site is a great idea. I will make contact again soon.
