Unlicensed airfields should be allowed to be included in the AIP and be permitted to submit NOTAMS.
CAP 793 states:
This proved too large a hurdle when we (the LAASG) were concluding negotiations for training from unlicensed airfields. Surely an airfield with an ICAO designator, such as Popham, should be included in the UK AIP and be able to submit relevant NOTAMS.
This serves a dual purpose of promoting access to UK airfields to both UK and foreign users, and improving safety by allowing the airfields to publish issues which affect those pilots.
