Back to the original thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I take it that the new Atsin does not apply whilst vectoring a/c onto the approach of the following airfields runways:-

Birmingham RW24
Bournemouth RW08
Bristol RW27
Cardiff RW12
Durham Tees Valley RW05
Edinburgh RW30
Leeds Bradford RW14
London City RW28

As ENR-1-6-1-3 Para 4 clearly states:-

Radar Vectoring-Controlled Airspace

At certain airfields where the airspace does not encompass the radar vectoring area, aircraft may be vectored outside the notified airspace for approaches to certain runways (Listed Above).

and then says

Whilst the a/c is outside CAS a RAS will be provided.
and
To reduce RTF loading, pilots will not be informed of the change of service given in these circumstances.

i.e. not only do you not require a correct readback for the change in service, you don't even need to tell him in the first place!

Does the ATSIN override this, I would guess not as it is in the AIP, pilots are notified of this exception and therefore expect not only to sometimes leave CAS when approaching these airfields runways but not to be told when they do
