As a result the poor Brize controllers really need a prerecorded message 'For Zone Transit contact Brize Zone 119.0'.
Because on the frequency card that comes with the map it has a little astrix by Brize saying for initial contact use LARS frequency (or something similar). I nearly did the same yesterday but requested a handover from Lyneham first who then told me to contact Brize on 119.0
