I am not sure if I have missed this as a thread topic, but I have just received an email reminder as below and thought it worth bringing to the attention of those here with unlicensed airstrips that might wish to take part in the NATS survey:
A survey to validate the list of various unlicensed airfields and aerial sporting activity locations published in the Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP) and depicted on CAA VFR charts is being conducted. The reason for this survey is to establish whether existing published sites in the AIP are still current, operating, accurately reflected in AIS products, and to identify a principal point of contact for each site. Upon closure of this survey (planned) 28/02/2018, the CAA will establish criteria for what constitutes a ‘significant’ activity at unlicensed sites, and subsequently arrange for the revision of all future AIS products based on that criteria. All site owners or landowners where established aircraft and/or aerial sporting activities at unlicensed sites are requested to take part in this survey by completing the UK Unlicensed and Uncertificated Aeronautical Sites form. (link below):

Unlicensed sites which fail to complete this survey by 28/02/2018 may result in a location that is currently published in the AIP, and depicted on CAA VFR charts, being removed from future AIS products, including CAA VFR charts.
