November UKAB INSIGHT newsletter now available

November’s edition of AIRPROX INSIGHT features an Airprox between a PA28 flying an RNP procedure to Lydd Airport and a Cessna 182 that was transiting the area.

The article discusses the proliferation of RNP procedures outside controlled airspace and some considerations for all pilots, not just those flying the approaches or who operate under IFR. Notably, the annotation printed on all VFR charts that ‘Pilots are strongly recommended to contact aerodrome ATSU before flying within 10nm of any aerodrome marked with instrument approach feathers’ may not be of sufficient distance from the aerodrome to capture the extent of the activity.
