Terminal Control North
Airspace Change Proposal

STOP PRESS: Consultation now extended to 19 June

Airspace change is a complex process and NATS applies the utmost rigour to developing design proposals which give full consideration to all the issues surrounding safety, efficiency and the environment.

As a world leader in air traffic management, it is our intention to provide best practice airspace solutions that allow not only for the growth we have to accommodate, but also our responsibility to our neighbours and to the environment.

This development of the Terminal Control North airspace region covers a large part of London, southern and eastern England, an area with a population of 12 million people and home to some of the UK's busiest airports.

NATS is seeking feedback on this proposal before submitting it to the UK airspace regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority, for a decision.

This website is part of the consultation process and is designed to provide an overview of the proposals and how they affect diffferent parts of the region. If you think the changes are relevant to you the detailed consultation document is available through the link on each page of this site.

A post code search facility illustrates the changes and there is a downloadable DVD which provides an introduction to the proposal and outlines how the proposed changes affect different parts of the region.

This consultation process started on 21 February 2008, and runs until 19 June 2008 - a period of 17 weeks.

A feedback form is available on this site for you to register your views. All feedback received during this period will be analysed and summarised in a report which will be published on the NATS website by 22 July 2008.
