INTRODUCTION
This first edition of the British Soaring Yearbook fulfils a long-overdue need for up-to-date reference data on the soaring movement in Britain.
The Yearbook is published as a private undertaking, but with the blessing of the British Gliding Association's Executive Committee.
Acknowledgements are due to the BGA Administrator and staff; the editor of "Sailplane and Gliding"; to the credited contributors of specific sections; and many other soaring enthusiasts all of whom have combined so enthusiastically to help produce this booklet.
As the first edition, this Yearbook is experimental in format and content, and any suggestions for future editions are welcomed by the compiler. Similary any corrections and amendments will also be gratefully received, c/o the publishers.

FOREWORD(by W. G. Scull, B.G.A. Director of Operations)
How often have you reached for a copy of "Sailplane & Gliding" to check some point or other? And how often have you had difficulty in finding what you want because you couldn't find the index or the copy ?
The idea of a Soaring Yearbook is not new; other countries have comparable publications and there has long been a need for something similar here. Now, at last, we have it. This book puts together a wealth of useful information in a handy reference form in so doing it does gliding a service.
It is relevant to mention that the Compiler, Gordon Camp, has been gliding for many years, has all three Diamonds and has flown in National Championships nearly every season since 1964, as well as being an Instructor, Technical Inspector, Competition Director and a past Chairman of the B.G.A.'s Competitions Committee. Clearly he is well-qualified to produce a book such as this, which most glider pilots in Britain will find extremely useful.

GLIDING AND UK AIRSPACE 1981by MIKE EMMETT (CHAIRMAN, BGA AIRSPACE COMMITTEE)
This article is intended to clarify the current airspace maze as it affects glider pilots. The information relates to the UK mainland only, and does not necessarily apply to powered aircraft.
AERODROME TRAFFIC ZONE (ATZ)All Airfields, including gliding sites, have an ATZ, which comprises the airspace extending from the surface to 2,000ft. above the level of the airfield and within a distance of H NM of its boundaries, except any part of that airspace which is within the ATZ of an adjacent airfield designated the controlling airfield.
It follows that large airfields have large ATZ's; furthermore it is obviously unwise to linger near the extended centre-line of a busy runway, even when outside the ATZ.
An aircraft may not take off, fly or land within an ATZ without permission if the airfield is operated by the Government, the Armed Forces, the CAA, or if it is licensed by the CAA or has an ATC unit or an Aeronautical Flight Information Unit. At airfields in none of these categories (including many gliding sites, regardless of how busy they are) an itinerant aircraft may legally penetrate the ATZ, providing the pilot conforms to the traffic pattern or keeps clear of the circuit airspace, and observes the normal rules of good airmanship to avoid collisions.
Some airfields are designated "Prior Permission Required" (PPR). This usually means a telephone call, but full details are set out in the AGA section of the UK Air Pilot. All military airfields are effectively PPR and should be avoided.
MILITARY AERODROME TRAFFIC ZONE (MATZ)A standard MATZ comprises the airspace within 5 NM radius of the centre of the airfield extending from the surface to 3,000ft. above the surface. In addition there is a projecting stub 5 NM long and 4 NM wide extending from 1,000ft. to 3,000ft. above the surface, aligned with the approach to the main runway, although in some MATZ's the stub may be absent or smaller. In the future there may be MATZ's of different sizes and some with stubs on both sides of the basic cylinder.
The rules applicable to the penetration of a MATZ are not compulsory for civil aircraft, but inside every MATZ there is an ATZ (see above).
AREAS OF INTENSE AERIAL ACTIVITY (AIAA)The RAC section of the UK Air Pilot defines an AIAA as an airspace which is not otherwise protected by regulated airspace, where the intensity of civil and/or military flying is exceptionally high; or an airspace within which aircraft regularly participate in unusual manoeuvres.
37
Twenty-one such areas are currently listed, but curiously only the Honington Military Control Zone is shown on the 1 :500000 topographical charts used by most glider pilots.
Gliders may penetrate these areas, but in view of the hazards, a sharp lookout is advisable.
A chart is available which shows all AlAA's and the military low flying system (see below).
CONTROLLED AIRSPACEControlled Airspace sometimes occupies the same bit of sky as Special Rules Airspace (peculiar to the U.K.) and can lead to confusion.
Controlled Airspace is either notified for Rule 21 of the Rules of the Air and Air Traffic Control Regulations or it is not. Rule 21 makes Airspace subject to permanent Instrument Flight Rules regardless of weather conditions. This involves the filing of flight plans, pilots holding instrument ratings, carriage of certain radio equipment, etc.
If it is not notified for Rule 21 it means that VMC flights are not subject to these requirements and therefore gliders flying in VMC are permitted.
AIRSPACE ABOVE FLIGHT LEVEL 245The entire country is controlled above FL 245 but none of the rules are applicable to gliders.
VISUAL METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (VMC)To comply with VMC, either above 3,000ft. outside Controlled Airspace or inside Controlled or Special Rules Airspace, a pilot must remain at least 1,000ft. vertically and at least 1 NM horizontally from cloud in a flight visibility of at least 5 NM, as interpreted by the pilot.
Bearing in mind that modern military and civil jet aircraft travel very fast and are capable of high rates of climb and descent and notwithstanding the minimum criteria stated above, it would be prudent to exercise the greatest care when flying where such traffic is known to exist.
AIRWAYSAirways are Rule 21, but an exception is made for gliders. The relevant paragraph in the Air Pilot states: "Gliders may cross an Airway, except a Purple Airway (see below), in VMC by day without compliance with any of the requirements ..." Note that the manner of crossing is not specified.
Some control areas may be treated as if they were airways: Daventry, Worthing and West Scottish.
Purple Airspace is established from time to time, to protect Royal Flights in fixed wing aircraft, within which ATC apply special procedures. Full details are promulgated by special notam and it is important that Gliding Clubs receive this information, because gliders are not permitted to fly in Purple Airspace.
38
CONTROL ZONES/AREAS (CTR/CTA),SPECIAL RULES ZONES/AREAS (SRZ/SRA), ANDTERMINAL CONTROL AREAS (TMA)
The Rules are complex, but the following tables are a simplified guide.
Areas in which Gliders may fly provided they maintain VMC.Cross Channel SRA Stansted SRZ/SRABournemouth/Southampton (but see below)
SRA/SRZ Leeds/Bradford SRA/SRZLyneham SRA/SRZ East Midlands SRA/SRZHalifax CTA Aberdeen SRA/SRZSouthend SRA/SRZ Newcastle SRA/SRZScottish TMA/SRA/CTR Manchester TMA
Areas in which Gliders may not fly, regardless of the weather Heathrow CTR/TMA Prestwick SRZ Gatwick CTR/SRZ/SRA Mansion SRZ Birmingham CTR/SRZ/SRA Lydd SRZ Cardiff CTR/SRZ/SRA Glasgow SRZ Blackpool SRZ Liverpool SRZ Manchester CTR (except for a small portion up to 1,250ft. AGL)Stansted SRA, only the portion between Stansted and Luton between
3,500ft. AMSL and FL 65.Luton SRZ/SRA ,Brize Norton SRZ I But see below.Edinburgh SRZ )
Areas in which Gliders may fly provided certain rules are followed.Luton SRAPart of this may be used for taking off or landing at Dunstable (London Gliding Club). These rules are complicated and should be studied before flying into the area: refer to Air Pilot, RAC Section.
Brize Norton SRZGliders may penetrate the SRZ at weekends in VMC provided that:a) Transits are made for cross-country record attempts on triangular
routes which cannot be arranged to avoid the SRZ.b) On the day of the proposed flight the pilot must contact the ATC
Watch Supervisor on Carterton 842551 and pass an approximate Zone Boundary ETA. At this time, but not later, ATC may refuse permission for operational or safety reasons.
39
c) The pilot must call Brize Norton on 130.4 MHz before penetration. In the absence of any reply the pilot may continue, assuming responsibility for lookout and separation within the ATZ, while listening out on 130.4 MHz.
Edinburgh SRZ/SRATransits are available to gliders contacting Edinburgh on 130.4 MHz. It will be necessary to activate the frequency by telephone before departure.
PROHIBITED AREASThese are the Atomic Energy Establishments at:
Winfrith Calder/Winscale Aldermastort Capenhurst
Harwell, Springfields and Dounreay are classed as "Restricted" in order to allow aircraft to land at adjacent major airfields, but for gliding purposes they should also be considered as "prohibited."
They all have a radius of 2 NM and extend to between 2,000ft. and 2,500ft. AMSL. It is most inadvisable to place oneself in the position of having to land within a Prohibited Area.
Short term Prohibited Areas may be established anywhere from time to time : information about these can be obtained from NOTAMS.
DANGER AREASThe U.K. is littered with Danger Areas of many types, shapes and sizes. They are active part-time, permanently or when notified by NOTAM. Full details will be found in the Air Pilot, RAC Section; the Chart of U.K. Airspace Restrictions is also useful.
Some glider pilots express the view that a Danger Area is not a Prohibited Area, so it would not be illegal to penetrate it. The following two points should be considered :
The Air Pilot lists only the type of activity most likely to be encountered, but in practice various hazards may be encountered in one area simultaneously.
Many Danger Areas contain areas over which flight is prohibited at times within the period of activity of the Danger Area by reason ot bye-laws made under the Military Lands Act 1892 and associated legislation. Violations of Danger Areas by civil aircraft are causing concern to the authorities: Aeronautical Information Circular 69/1980 explains that the act will be used to apply airspace restrictions to all Military Danger Areas where possible.
It is also worth noting that the Air Pilot does not list Danger Areas with upper limits 500ft. or less above the local surface, to which prohibiting bye-laws may also apply.
Glider pilots should therefore regard all Danger Areas as prohibited.
40
HAZARDOUS AREASOther types of hazard include Free Fall Parachute sites. The airspace is contained in a circle of H NM radius from the centre of the drop zone up to a maximum of Flight Level 120.
It may not be apparent to a glider pilot, observing the drop zone in flight, whether or not there is parachuting in progress; parachutists normally free-fall down to 2,000 ft. AGL and are extremely difficult to see. Beware !
AIC 76/1980 makes this point in relation to parachute training at Weston-on-the-Green, Oxfordshire.
HIGH INTENSITY RADIO TRANSMISSION AREAS
Within these areas there are powerful radio emissions which may cause interference with glider radios and electronic variometers.
One such area is so powerful that prolonged exposure could be injurious to health.
Details are in the Air Pilot, RAC Section.
RESTRICTED AREA—RAF KEMBLE
Introduced to protect the Red Arrows Aerobatic Team during training, the area is a circle of 5 NM radius extending to 6,000ft. AGL, active during the notified hours of Kemble Airfield, i.e. 0830—1600 local time Monday to Friday or when promulgated by NOTAM. The area will not normally be active at weekends.
Gliders may not enter this airspace without prior permission, obtainable either by contacting Kemble ATC on 122.1 MHz or by telephone on Kemble 261, as far in advance as possible.
Provided the area is not being used by the Red Arrows, pilots will be given clearance to transit, although there may be other flying in progress and pilots must take the usual care.
The RAC Section of the Air Pilot and AIC 6/1978 have full details.
UPPER HEYFORD RADAR ADVISORY SERVICE ZONE (RASZ)
Although not listed as an AIAA, the Upper Heyford RASZ is similar. Again the procedures are not mandatory for civil aircraft, but the Air Pilot contains the following advice :
"Since it will obviously be in the interest of Flight Safety for Upper Heyford ATC to have knowledge of all aircraft flying in the RASZ, pilots of gliders and non-radio equipped aircraft intending to operate within the zone are advised when possible to telephone ATC (Upper Heyford 2331, Extension 4217/4843) before take off in order to make known their intentions. However, flights made in accordance with standing arrangements are excluded from this procedure."
41
MILITARY LOW FLYING SYSTEMLow flying by high performance military aircraft takes place in most parts of the U.K. up to 2,000ft. above ground level, with the greatest concentration between 250ft. and 500ft.
All gliding sites are notified to the military authorities and all Club CFI's by now have a supply of forms for reporting any dangerous infringement of their ATZ to the Ministry of Defence.
THE AIRMISS SYSTEMGlider pilots are accustomed to flying in close proximity to each other and may not appreciate that it can be quite alarming for the pilot of a powered aircraft to suddenly encounter a glider at close quarters. The reluctance of most glider pilots to report Air Misses is generally not shared by the powered fraternity : this usually results in extra work for the Airspace Committee ! The Air Miss System is generally helpful and glider pilots should take advantage of it whenever appropriate. Full details are in the Air Pilot, RAC Section, but generally the procedure can be activated by a telephone call to the nearest airfield with an ATC service on the day of the incident.
