This proposal is for a Permanent change to the notified airspace design, and the change level is TBC.
London City Airport is installing EMAS (Engineer Material Arrestor System) providing an arrestor bed at both ends of its runway, enhancing safety and reducing the risk to aircraft and passengers should an aeroplane overrun or undershoot a runway. The EMAS will be placed in the existing RESAs (Runway End Safety Areas) and the future design sees changes to the Threshold (THR) locations. These changes support the airport's sustainability ambitions by enabling cleaner, quieter and more fuel-efficient new-generation aircraft to safely operate. A review of the Instrument Flight Procedures are therefore required to support this change.
