I have been asleep, has Ian a new VIP neighbour? Or an old VIP neighbour with worries?

Maybe it is for Ian...

[Irv Lee]

@skydriller I did consider whether Mr Shapps had misremembered ian's post code by the time he got back to the office after the rally but the AIC went out in late July

Google tells me it used to be the home of one Camilla Parker-Bowles.

Has she moved out of Highgrove then? You heard it here first.

Lacock was where the first EVER photograph was taken by William Henry Fox-Talbot in 1835; maybe it's something to do with that.

…having regard for the significance of the security considerations associated with this location by reason of it being the residence of a member of the Royal Family;

Surely it is Ray Mill House as opposed to Raymill House? (or at least according to Historic England)

[JAFO]

Also not to be confused with Ray Milland - something quite different and no evidence that Camilla ever spent any time there.

This is a good example of a permanent restricted area that has sprung up in the middle of the year. If you're still using a CAA chart, make sure you annotate it

[CloudHound]

I thought is was for the DoC’s daughter.

[Boxkite]

What a stupid place for a restricted area.
They obviously got fed up up with all those little aeroplanes coming through the choke point between Bristol CTA and Salisbury danger area, avoiding Colerne and Keevil, and avoiding Wadswick and all the other little airfields. Not to mention there's a VRP just 1.5 miles up the road.

"She was only a DoC's daughter, but....."
Any offers? seems too good to miss, restricted areas and all.

[Dave W]

Come on Irv; the whole point is to miss it.

And you an Examiner. Tssch.

It’s only up to 1600 ft on my regular trips through there I’d be around twice that

She was only the Duchess' daughter,
But she definitely knew what she oughta.
When 'planes they flew low,
She shouted out "No".
Convinced nude sunbathing they'd caught her.
