I've put up the latest 'currently known restrictions' for the rest of the year on http://www.flyontrack.co.uk - it's not as busy as mid Summer, but there are a few restrictions to come yet -Old Warden and Duxford events for example, some Red Arrows events left, and other things I hadn't though of like the Ryder Cup in S. Wales coming up. Worth a couple of minutes for browsing. There's also a competition running on the competitions tag.
HOWEVER - the 4 days of the Pope's visit 16th-19th Sept are not mentioned and there will be restrictions in that period - please refer to NOTAM or the freephone 0500-354802 day by day to find out where they are.

I wonder if the Pope will be enforcing the No-Fly zone with his original 88mm AckAck gun, .. see if the old magic is still there :rolleyes:

I hear from a mate who knows these things that during the Olympics in 2012, there will be many restrictions to GA flying, including a rumour of a complete no-fly restriction in the South East. :eek:

Discuss that!!

an interesting thought but since the new government have identified all health and safety officers as working against the future recovery of the uk with any luck we will have a new sport at the olypics called tar and feather H+S officers.
