I'm sure this is a naive question.
Looking at the Glasgow / Hampden NOTAM, the RA(T) can be entered into with ATC Clearance from Glasgow. Hampden is already inside Glasgow CTR Class D so you need ATC clearance anyway to go there.
So whats the point of the RA(T)? To help with planning as Glasgow Approach aren't likely to give you clearance through it?
