A, congrats on passing the thing at the place you've just done the major thing at. Now you have a nice new thing to bring back by here see!!

Yeah offcial AIP NPR at the mo remains 4DME/3000. The bods from the airport don't want us saying 'after noise right/left turn to....' as some a/c have shown that they are turning on passing 3000' right over Cowbridge, hence the re-evaluation of the NPR. Thats why they have to continue straight ahead to 4DME before turning as they pass west of Cowbridge.

With this new trial procedure there isn't a level restriction (unless no DME in which case its SA to 4000') so in theory they could continue straight ahead to 4DME any level then make the turn.


I gather you like the pics then??
