Interesting NOTAMs / Flight Reports / temporary flight restriction zones

What I find odd is the fact that it’s not centred on Belfast international airport. It appears to be centred somewhere in the Irish Sea

it looks quite central to Belfast City Airport - George Best

Approach frequencies can start from 50 miles out from an airport, it doesn’t have to be centered actually on it.

That’s my GIS side coming out :rofl: a ‘buffer’ is usually centred on the source point, but as Le60Lad said it appears to be centred on the city airport.
Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but when I zoom out all restrictions disappear ? I wasn’t able to see the full circle so couldn’t work out where the centre was

Really FFS! :roll_eyes: :joy:

Hi, just saw this notam centered on Leeds bradford airport but c 22km radius. I think it might relate to some back up radar system but guess that doesn’t directly affect drone flights. Does anyone know for sure. Thanks.

@JDNT yes, confirmed.

SSR = Secondary Surveillance Radar. Safe for you to ignore that one.

We normally filter out the NOTAMs which aren’t relevant to drone ops.

Will get these added to the exclusion list :slight_smile:

Thanks Pingspike.

@JDNT those SSR NOTAMs have now been excluded from Drone Scene, you won’t see them anymore :slight_smile:

Blimey… I applied to fly in a Temporary Danger Area and the approval was authorised within 10 minutes! :grin: I’ve whinged a few times about TDA’s and the radius of them, but that’s very good service…

I guess you applied for a date and time? .. or was it just a general “ish” application to confirm on the day?

I gave a specific time and date. I’m not entirely sure if you can confirm on the day?

Did you let “the weather” know your intentions, too? :winking_face_with_tongue::scream::rofl:

I did mention in my request ’ weather permitting '… If it’s called off I’ll try another day. :slightly_smiling_face:
