The two Stansted TMZs were established in 2009 as a result of the large number and severity of controlled airspace infringements in the vicinity of Stansted Airport.
What do I need?
To enter a TMZ you MUST have an operational Mode S transponder, with altitude information.
Suitably equipped aircraft may access a London Stansted TMZ without ATC approval although pilots are strongly recommended to establish communication with Farnborough LARS or Essex radar. Alternatively make use of the Listening Squawk (A7013).
But I don’t have a Mode S Transponder…
The pilot of an aircraft that wishes to operate in a London Stansted TMZ without a Mode S transponder may access the TMZ subject to specific ATC approval. This approval may be obtained from Farnborough Radar on frequency 132.800 MHz during their hours of operation or from Essex Radar on frequency 120.625 MHz at other times.
Airfields located within a London Stansted TMZ have specific entry and exit procedures. Check with individual airfields for details.
