Perhaps they need to include these warnings in the ERSA? Of the financial consequences for doing so, even 1ft into such airspace you will be issued with a 4 to 5 figure fine.
There are Fly Neighbourly Agreements - is this what you are referring to? The ERSA has details on these (GEN SP section).
I didn't think you could be fined for infringing these. Have you been fined - could you supply more details on who issued the fines if so?
Otherwise are these just restricted areas created on the basis of environmental sensitivity? I know there used to be some at one point - again these would be in ERSA and infringements would be same as infringing any other restricted airspace surely?
Or is this something else again not administered as part of airspace stuff?
