Phew! Thank goodness you clarified that mate, you know I am not good at those TLA's!
MAX Happy to get rid of them mate, I am sure Dubai would love to add them to the list of 'Things to do' in the already saturated TMA. Also more than happy to give back some of the TMA airspace that we administer and oooh! while we are at it we can give Fujeirah and RAK. Stuff me, after all that we may even resemble a more typical Area unit...but lets not let fantasy get in the road!
It is certainly a carry over from the days of the Great Dane when he went on his airspace and procedures 'grabbing raid' on all the adjacent units.
