With the discussion here regarding infringements there are some real and relevant bomb shells in this report. It is well worth a read.
"The current Airspace design model, on all levels, is unfit for purpose. The Department for Transport should seek to radically change or replace Section70 and the CAA should replace all relevant guidance. This should lay out clear direction and objectives, as well as the methodology used to arrive their conclusion."
"The CAA shouldlook to radically change the policy objective behind airspace design changes. The Inquiryrecommends that the Department for Transport and the CAA adopt, or base theirpolicyon,‘safety, proportionality and need’."
There is that word again which has come up so often - "proportionality".
"It is the view held by many in the civil aviation community that the current legislation, policies and procedures laidout by the Department for Transport and the CAA areout of date and fail to adequately or properly balance the needs ofall sectors of aviation."
Which seems to be a reoccurring theme.
