If you have to ask you don't need to know.

Anyone else got some Christmas wisecracks?

Isnt Spey saying what does the no MATZ penetration bit matter since you don't need to (but are wise to ) ask for MATZ penetration. As for the wires , thats scary.

Cable hazard at Odiham is marked on 1/2 and 1/4 mil CAA charts; if you use someone elses publication (which won't necessarily be checked for accuracy as rigorously as the CAA one) it might not be; Jeppessen policy for instance is NOT to show cable hazards on their VFR/GPS charts. There's a similar hazard at Lasham too, this time 3700ft amsl!!
