More Temporary Exclusion Zones.....
An update on my previous post, its not just French Nuclear Power installations with exclusion zones now. There is a similar zone near Bordeaux at the meeting of the Garronne and Dordogne rivers where they join to form the Gironde estury- it is a large petroleum depot/refinery.
So beware, they are springing up all over the place like a rash.....make sure you read the NOTAMS and look at your route a little more carefully than normal if planning below 3-4000ft asl. Where posible I would recommend calling your destination actually asking about any local restrictions.
Take care, Regards,
