Routes (NPRs) cease when The direction that our runway operates is dependent on weather conditions, they are over 4000ft particularly wind. Aircraft prefer to land and take-off into wind. When aircraft are arriving from the east and departing to the west this is Runway 27. We use this direction about 70% of the time. When aircraft are arriving from the west and departing to the east this is Runway 09. The runway names come from the compass heading they are travelling towards( 090° or 270°). We set departure noise limits on aircraft. These are recorded at two noise monitors, one in each departure direction. 6 0 – 4000 ft Example of typical summer season departure 4000 – 6000 ft tracks from Runway 27 over one day 6000 – 10,000 ft Bristol Airport .

Background on Application for Partial Slot Coordination
BACKGROUND ON APPLICATION FOR PARTIAL SLOT COORDINATION What is an airport ‘slot’? A ‘slot’ is the permission given by an airport ‘coordinator’ for an aircraft to arrive or depart at a specific airport at a specified time on a specified day. This permission allows an aircraft - along with its crew and any passengers - access to the airport infrastructure, including runway, terminal facilities, baggage handling and operational requirements such as aircraft refuelling. Why have slots? The management of airport slots is required at airports where the available airport infrastructure is insufficient to meet the demand of airlines and other aircraft operators. It also gives airports greater control of when flights arrive and depart. What is coordination? Airport coordination is a means of managing airport capacity through the application of a set of rules set out by the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Coordination involves the allocation of constrained or limited airport capacity to airlines and other aircraft operators to ensure a viable airport and air transport operation. The process of slot allocation is designed to achieve the maximum utilisation of scarce airport capacity within an acceptable level of delay. If an airport is designated as Level 3 coordinated, it enables the control of slot allocation along with the monitoring of slot usage to ensure carriers adhere to the given slot. What are ‘airport levels’? For the purposes of airport coordination, airports are categorized by the responsible authorities (the Department for Transport in the UK) according to the following levels of congestion: a) Level 1: airports where the capacity of the airport infrastructure is generally adequate to meet the demands of airport users at all times.

Appendix B Airports Located Within the Green Belt
Appendix B Airports Located within the Green Belt Newcastle In its 1994 Master Plan, the case was made for the removal of part of the Airport site from the Tyne and Wear Green Belt. The approach was adopted by all relevant local planning authorities and the main part of the Airport site was duly removed from the Green Belt and allocated for Airport related development within the Newcastle upon Tyne Unitary Development Plan (UDP) (Adopted 1998). The most recent Airport Master Plan states: “The main benefit of this approach [removal of the main Airport site from the Green Belt] has been to enable the Airport to grow with certainty. The expansion of the terminal, car parking and freight facilities was seen to be of overriding importance to the economy of the region and to meet passenger demand, and allocation within the green belt was seen to be inappropriate for this level of growth.” Manchester The majority of Manchester Airport’s Operational Area is located within the Green Belt and designated as a Major Developed Site. The recently submitted Manchester Core Strategy highlights that a review of the Green Belt was undertaken in response to the North West RS (which allowed for detailed changes to accommodate airport expansion, similar to the dRS in the context of Bristol Airport) the results of which have informed an amendment of the Green Belt to remove areas needed for airport development. Policy MA1 states: “The growth of Manchester Airport to accommodate 45 million passengers per annum by 2030 will be supported, and it is designated as a Strategic Site.
