Thank you for your interest, engagement and feedback on Aberdeen International Airport’s Airspace Change Proposal (ACP).
Our consultation window has now closed, and we are collating and reviewing all responses to inform our consultation response document which will be submitted to the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). We will notify you once this is available, and we are grateful for your participation in this process to date.
As a reminder, during this public consultation we were gathering feedback on two proposed changes to the airspace surrounding the airport. These proposals are part of an industry-wide drive, led by the CAA who regulate the UK’s airspace, to modernise UK airspace infrastructure.
The two proposals are:
- The introduction of modern satellite-based arrival procedures which would be used by a very small percentage of arrivals for resilience and training purposes.
- The release of a section of the Controlled Airspace (CAS) which is not routinely used by the aircraft arriving or departing from Aberdeen Airport for the benefit of other airspace users.
