Stansted Aerozone open for Planewatch members, 15th April

Post by andygolfer » Thu Feb 15, 2018 8:16 am

At our meeting with the Planewatch team and MAG last month we asked if the Aerozone could be opened for viewing on Sunday 15th April which is the Sunday before the commonwealth Heads of Government conference in London from 16th to 20th, as we anticipate there will be some interesting government aircraft visiting on that date in preparation for the conference. We have had agreement from the airport on this proposal and more details (times etc) will follow later.

It will be restricted to Planewatch members only as they only want vetted people present at the Aerozone or it’s surroundings. We did put forward a proposal to create a temporary public viewing area for the day but because of the vetting necessity that suggestion was turned down. We felt it would help keep people away from the business area but unfortunately that was not considered a strong enough reason for considering our proposal. The police did say that there will be higher profile security in place at the business park for the arrivals so please be aware that it may be closed off at times.

A reminder that if you are not a member you can apply to join the Planewatch scheme (which is free) to make use of these open days although there’s a bit of a backlog on application processing at present. Here’s a link: http://www.essex.police.uk/about/plane_watch.aspx
