1. NOTAM L4614 de-activates the ATZ and indicates no ATS provided in July. NOTAM L4612 mandates "NO AIRCRAFT IS PERMITTED TO OVERFLY THE AD AT LESS THAN 1000 FT AGL". What civil aviation legislation has been enacted to enable this to be mandated?
2. If there is no ATS being provided in July and at least part of the delay re-opening is caused by an ATCO shortage, is there going to be adequate time for ATC to train up new ATCOs (if indeed they have at last recruited any) to achieve Unit Endorsements for an apparent 1 September start of schheduled services?
1. Maybe the airfield is “congested” with workers trying to satisfy the CAA!
2. How do the trainee ATCOs train with no traffic?!?
3. How are minimum hours achieved for existing ATCOs?
