Purpose of this change

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

This change proposal is about the restoration of the DSA airspace that has been subject to a CAA-sponsored ACP for the ‘Consideration of the removal of Doncaster-Sheffield Airport Airspace’ (ACP-2022-082). It will include the RNP Arrivals and Departures predicated on existing Noise Preferential Routes (NPRs) that form part of the Airports Section 106 Agreement, as previously consulted upon in 2016-17 and introduced in 2018. This proposal does not conflict with the stated aims of the UK Airspace Modernisation Strategy.

Stage 1 : Define

This step has been started

During stage 1, the sponsor submits a statement of need, setting out the objectives of their airspace change proposal and the issues or opportunities it seeks to address. Subject to the CAA accepting that the airspace change process is the appropriate mechanism to achieve the objectives of the proposal, the sponsor will go on to develop the current-day scenario and design principles. The change sponsor will share the current-day scenario and proposed design principles with relevant stakeholders so they can comment accordingly, and take those comments into account.
