"This is good news. Why only to 18th August though? Is this because the RAF is on holiday? Can we expect a reinstatement when they're all back from Lanzarote?"
No, because that is when the entry in the AIP will be revised and a trigger NOTAM will replace the J series NOTAM i filed last night. From now on EG R610 will only be established, for a limited defined period, when there is the actual type of flying taking place for which it was established.
This revocation of an airspace restriction follows a great deal of work by a number of individuals to ensure that airspace is used flexibly.
