Purpose of this change

This proposal is for a Permanent change to the notified airspace design, and the change level is 1.

London Stansted Airport wishes to modernise airs pace arrangements for aircraft operating to and from the Airport at altitudes of 7,000 feet and below. In 2017, London Stansted introduced performance based navigation to two existing departure routes . The Airport now seeks to make further us e of the new technologies so that the operational efficiency and environmental benefits that modern aircraft offer can now be fully realised. In so doing, the optimised procedures that will be

developed will integrate fully with other airports and the wider changes to the airspace system and remove the Airport’s reliance on ground based navigational aids .
