I have just had a chat with a very helpful chap at DAP regarding operations within the restricted airspace. He advised me to put forward various suggestions via airspacesafety.com with a view to getting some dispensations/exemptions issued. Apparently exemptions are already being looked at for the air show at Dunsfold and some operators who undertake several local flights a day.
If I understood him correctly DAP are acting as advisors to DfT on what is sensible regarding exemptions.
I will be having a meeting with our based operators in the next couple of weeks and putting forward a co-ordinated response from the Aerodrome in the hope that we might be able to retain some normality to our operation, especially for those aircraft without SSR.
