This is a Farnborough flow restriction currently during implementation phase of the airspace. Farnborough will get busier. Gliding from Lasham remains safe and a lot of work has gone into ensure that. However it is everyone's responsibility regardless of ATZ or not to avoid the overhead of airfields especially below 2000ft. Lasham launches cables up to a max alt of 3600ft AMSL every single day sometimes over 100-150 times. How that doesn't qualify for a danger area who knows. But it certainly isn't the place to be on a Sunny Saturday!
