Re: Airspace maps

Thanks John,

Another quick question, from where to where does UL9 stretch?
I can find UL10 which stretches from Belfast to MMKU and some other ones.

Kind regards,
Dirk.

first time listener questions

Hi all,

I found this great website: http://www.flightradar24.com/#!/
Just listening to the Shannon ATC and i have a question,
a private jet was cleared for taxi when ATC informed him that the military was operating in P10. What does that mean?

Dirk.
