Aberdeen International Airport is consulting on two proposed changes to the airspace surrounding the airport. These proposals are part of an industry-wide drive, led by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) who regulate the UK’s airspace, to modernise UK airspace infrastructure. This is part of a UK-wide airspace modernisation programme, which you can find out more about here.
As part of this consultation, we are asking for feedback from stakeholders and the community on the following two proposals:
- The introduction of modern satellite-based arrival procedures which would be used by a very small percentage of arrivals for resilience and training purposes.
- The release of a section of the Controlled Airspace (CAS) which is not routinely used by the aircraft arriving or departing from Aberdeen International Airport for the benefit of other airspace users.
The consultation will run for 12 weeks from Monday 29 April – Sunday 21 July 2024.
This consultation is being held to share information, and importantly, receive feedback on the proposed airspace solutions.
