Just noticed a massive NOTAM covering a huge area of Kent that it’s in place from this Monday through to Oct!
This is a bit of a blow. I was planning to do some shooting there in a couple of weeks.
Anyone know any more or who we might be able to contact to get permission?
There are 2 NOTAMS covering the same huge area.
This is the first one starting Monday -
LFXX/QRTCA/IV/BO/W/000/015/5050N00137E035 A) LFFF;EGTT B) FROM: 21/05/17 06:00 C) TO: 21/05/21 16:00 E) CHANNEL TEMPORARY AREAS - FR AIRAC AIP SUP 080/21 - UK AIC Y 029/2021: OBJECT :

ALL AREAS NOT ACTIVATED - 18 MAY 2021:
ALL AREAS NOT ACTIVATED - 19 MAY 2021:
ALL AREAS NOT ACTIVATED - 20 MAY 2021:

What does ALL AREAS NOT ACTIVATED mean???
Then the main one:

LFFF/QRTCA/IV/BO/W/000/015/5050N00137E035 A) LFFF B) FROM: 21/05/20 06:00 C) TO: 21/10/29 16:00 E) SHIPS AIR EMISSION CONTROL OPERATION AND RESCUE AND RESEARCH MISSIONS IN THE CHANNEL STRAIT - AIP SUP AIRAC 080/21:

The 2nd one only mentions the French Authorities. So does it actually have effect if flying within the UK?
Any more info much appreciated.
