Purpose of this change

This proposal is for a Permanent change to the notified airspace design, and the change level is 2C.

EGCN (Doncaster Sheffield Airport - DSA) will suspend operations including ATS provision at 1500UTC 18 Nov22.

As a result, the aerodrome information (AD2), controlled airspace (CAS) for which DSA is the nominated unit providing service, the DSA air traffic zone (ATZ) and associated procedures that are currently managed by DSAATC/Operations, will need to be removed from the UK AIP.

Another certified ANSP, subject to approval by the CAA, could manage part or all of the current published construct; there will be no opportunity to amend the current construct. The last date to submit considerations to manage the current construct(s) is the 17 Feb 23. Other sections of the AIP, where DSA is referenced, may require removal/amending. The UK VFR charts will also require amending.
