Hawarden RMZ now operational
Hawarden class G airspace RMZ has become operational from 30 March, so now spacing of aircraft will be the responsibility of the Radar Operator, who because of the limitations of the radar system and the delay in RTF, has to keep us at least 3000ft and 5 miles apart.
(A good pilot holding onto the aircraft's control column, and therefore in direct control of his aircraft, is quite adept at maintaining a much smaller separation when aware of other aircraft, using the 'see and avoid' technique.)
This RMZ has most likely been prompted because the number of Baluga flights sometimes doubles to more than one a day.
Hawarden will not be manned 24hrs, so I don't know what the procedure will be outside these hours.
