Areas in which Gliders may not fly, regardless of the weather<br />
Heathrow CTR Prestwick SRZ<br />
Gatwick CTR/SRZ/SRA Manston SRZ<br />
London TMA Glasgow SRZ<br />
Birmingham CTR/SRZ/SR A Liverpool SRZ<br />
Cardiff CTR/SRZ/SRA<br />
Blackpool SRZ<br />
Manchester CTR (except for a small portion up to 1,250ft AGL)<br />
Stanstead SRA, only the portion between Standsted and Luton between 3,500ft AMSL<br />
and FL 65.<br />
Luton SRZ/SRA<br />
Bristol SRA/SRZ Ri . cao . .<br />
Brize Norton SRZ But see below.<br />
Edinburgh SRZ<br />
Areas in which Gliders may fly provided certain rules are followed<br />
Luton SRA<br />
Part of this may be used for taking off or landing at Dunstable (London <strong>Gliding</strong> <strong>Club</strong>).<br />
These rules are complicated and should be studied before flying into the area: refer to<br />
Air Pilot, RAC Section.<br />
Bristol SRA/SRZ<br />
Part of this may be used for gliding under a Letter of Agreement with the Mendips<br />
<strong>Gliding</strong> <strong>Club</strong>, with whom contact should be made before using the airspace.<br />
Brize Norton SRZ<br />
Gliders may penetrate the SRZ at weekends in VMC provided that.<br />
a) Transits are made for cross-country record attempts on triangular routes which<br />
cannot be arranged to avoid the SRZ.<br />
b) On the day of the proposed flight the pilot must contact the ATC Watch Supervisor<br />
on Carterton 842551 and pass an approximate Zone Boundary ETA. At this time,<br />
but not later, ATC may refuse permission for operational or safety reasons.<br />
c) The pilot must call Brize Norton on 130.4 MHz before penetration. In the absence of<br />
any reply the pilot may continue, assuming responsibility for lookout and separation<br />
within the ATZ, while listening out on 130.4 MHz.<br />
Edinburgh SRZ/SRA<br />
Transits are available to gliders contacting Edinburgh on 130.4 MHz. It will be neces<br />
sary to activate the frequency by telephone before departure.<br />
AREAS OF INTENSE AIR ACTIVITY (AIAA)<br />
An AIAA is airspace which is not otherwise protected by regulated airspace, but where<br />
the intensity of civil and/or military flying is exceptionally high, or within which aircraft<br />
regularly participate in unusual manoeuvres.<br />
Twelve AlAA's are currently listed, and shown on the 1:500000 topographical<br />
charts used by most glider pilots.<br />
Gliders may penetrate these areas, but in view of the hazards, a sharp lookout is<br />
advisable.<br />
