French TMAs Activated By NOTAM
No responses in Rotorheads so I thought I would post in Private Flying as well - :
It's been a few years since I've flown to France but am hoping to do so this weekend - weather permitting. I will route via Jersey and then plan to tour around Normandy and Picardy.
I see there is a series of wide diameter TMAs activated by NOTAM (e.g. LFOP and LFOB) which take effect from sea level. Presumably transit through these TMAs is simply a matter of calling up the controlling ATC authority and making an appropriate request? Is there any reason I might be refused a transit? Interested also to understand the underlying reason why these have been activated.
Thanks, BE
