Permanent airspace change proposals under CAP725

Please note that many of the airspace change proposal reference numbers below have been amended to ensure that they are aligned with those which are automatically generated by our Airspace Change Proposal Project Tracker (December 2017).

Proposals to change airspace design and (shortly) some ATC operational procedures (“PPRs”) decisions are made by the CAA. In practice, CAA employees are authorised by the CAA Board to make decisions as published in CAP 1616. Level 1 airspace design change decisions can be made either by the CAA's Group Director of Safety and Airspace or the Head Airspace, Air Traffic Management and Aerodromes.
