Farnborough Airport Airspace Strategy

The current airspace arrangement around and above Farnborough Airport came in to effect in February 2020. To achieve this the Airport followed the CAA Airspace Change Process. The final part of that process is the CAA’s assessment of the Post Implementation Review carried out by the Airport, in line with specific CAA requirements.

The CAA published their findings on 15th April 2025 and concluded that “the change has produced the intended outcomes, and that the implemented design satisfactorily achieves, within acceptable tolerance limits, the objectives and terms of the CAA’s approval. As a result, the airspace change is confirmed.”

The Airport is already working on their next Airspace Change as part of the Government’s Airspace Modernisation Policy. All documentation regarding this change is available on the CAA Airspace Change Portal and regular updates are provided at FACC meetings.
