Radio and Transponder Mandatory Zones – NATMAC Consultation Report

At a meeting of the National Air Traffic Management Advisory Committee (NATMAC) on 15 October 2020, the CAA presented proposals to amend our Airspace Policy Statement on Radio Mandatory Zones (RMZ) and Transponder Mandatory Zones (TMZ). This led to a consultation with the members of the NATMAC from 26 October 2020 to 18 December 2020.

The CAA has now concluded its assessment of the responses from members of the NATMAC. This report provides an overview of the key themes identified by NATMAC members, a detailed consultation response document, and a brief on how the CAA intends to progress the amendment of the Policy for RMZ and TMZ.
