Could EGD129 not be Notamed as deactivated when there is no para activity.
EGD129 creates a choke point with aircraft transiting north/south trying to avoid Bicester gliding site.
You would have thought so wouldn't you.... Not my call its a military zone and we have no control over its operation we are just one of the airspace users. The main reason its held open all the time is to give the Hercs the opportunity for short notice tasking which can be 24x7.
