Temporary Depletion

During the recent AFOA conference in Dublin, Mark Lakin asked the regulator for more information regarding the removal of Temporary Depletion from CAP 168 and how airports were advised to deal with unforeseen events that may compromise RFFS cover.

Currently the expectation is to have a contingency plan in place and no compromise appears to exist.

Mark would like to invite any comments on what methods, and to what level, other UK airports deal with this situation.

SRG are also encouraging dialogue on the issue.

Your comments would be greatly appreciated.

AFOA will compile your comments and present them to SRG on your behalf.
