A new aviation safety podcast is launched today by the CAA in conjunction with the Flaps podcast team. Known as Airspace the podcast is initially part of the Airspace & Safety initiative (ASI) work to inform the aviation community of changes resulting from next year’s London 2012 Olympics, but will also feature other safety and airspace issues.
The first edition focuses on the airspace restrictions that the Government will be putting in place during the Olympics and can be heard or downloaded at

Among the issues covered are: how the restrictions will be put in place; how to use the restricted zone; and details of the enhanced air traffic service that will be in place to assist pilots.
Further Airspace podcasts will follow later this year as part of the ASI Olympics programme and will feature topics including how to use the enhanced flight planning system for the restricted zone and what to do if you’re intercepted by a military aircraft during the Games. <a href=”http://www.caa.co.uk”>Click here for more</a>
