Purpose of this change

This proposal is for a Temporary change to the notified airspace design, for which a scaled airspace change process applies and a change level is not applicable.

The Sponsor intends to conduct both BVLOS training and system test and evaluation activity in and around the area of Radnor

Range. Due to the substantial terrain within the range complex and its surrounding area it is necessary to conduct a series of test flights

to establish operating ranges and heights for a variety of UAS platforms. This is coupled with the identification of potential locations to

site signal rebroadcast stations, thus ensuring signal continuity.
