Liverpool Airport SID STAR Altitudes
Hello everyone!
I live in Liverpool and have noticed aircraft have been flying over lower in the last week or two. Therefore I was wondering whether the SID/STAR/Both altitudes have been lowered, or if anyone knows why the aircraft are flying lower.
Thanks in advance,
Oliver

Not overly familiar with Liverpool, NOTAM's show a recent level change at Upton @FL170 for the Tipod 1E arrival so perhaps aircraft are flying a shallower descent E-W towards WAL than before. Don't know if there was any previous restriction.
More likely is Liverpool is greatly affected by the runway in use at MAN. MAN has been predominantly using 05 recently so traffic manoeuvring into Liverpool will be kept lower earlier to provide separation.
