How ATC Plans the show contol
This information outlines the Show Air Traffic Control :
-------------------------------------------------------
The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) will establish temporary restricted airspace around Farnborough between 7 to 21 July during this year’s International Air Display.
Details of the Restricted Airspace (Temporary) - RA(T) - are provided in Aeronautical Information Circular 35/2008 (Mauve 259) ‘Restriction of Flying Regulations - Farnborough 7-21 July 2008’. In addition, two AIP Supplements (S 17/2008 and 18/2008) describing general arrangements for the display and for helicopter operations during the period are available online through The Ais at http://www.nats-uk.ead-it.com/public/index.php.html
Details of airspace restrictions feature on the daily Aeronautical Information Service (AIS) freephone telephone service (0500 354802) and are included in Preflight Information Bulletins (PIB), also available from the AIS website.
Peter Marks from the CAA’s Directorate of Airspace Policy said: “The Farnborough airspace restriction is put in place to provide a secure environment for the display aircraft, which range from airliners to the Red Arrows, and its size is kept to the absolute minimum that will accommodate their display routines.
“Any infringement of the restricted airspace would, at best, cause the cancellation of a particular part of the show so all pilots will need to ensure they are fully and properly briefed before flying.”
