Airspace restrictions: where to check

Terasor holds no airspace restriction data. This section points at the authority that does; it does not tell you whether you may fly.

UK Civil Aviation AuthorityRules and guidance

The CAA page explains the rules and links the official map of UAS restriction zones, which is published separately by NATS UK AIS.

UK flight restriction zones near this point

From the UK AIP UAS dataset, AIRAC effective 6 August 2026. It carries UAS flight restriction zones only: no temporary restrictions or NOTAMs, and no general controlled airspace.

Nearest zones within 30 km, by distance to the zone boundary, showing 6 of 23 found.

  • HMP LEEDS (EGR3U036): flight restriction zone, 1.3 km away, surface to 700 ft above mean sea level.
  • LEEDS BRADFORD RWY 32 (EGR3U010C): runway protection zone, 4.5 km away, surface to 2,000 ft above surface.
  • LEEDS BRADFORD (EGR3U010A): flight restriction zone, 5.7 km away, surface to 2,000 ft above surface.
  • CARR GATE (EGR3U053): flight restriction zone, 9.1 km away, surface to 1,400 ft above mean sea level.
  • HMP WAKEFIELD (EGR3U048): flight restriction zone, 12.8 km away, surface to 600 ft above mean sea level.
  • LEEDS BRADFORD RWY 14 (EGR3U010B): runway protection zone, 14.9 km away, surface to 2,000 ft above surface.

None of these links covers everything. Temporary restrictions and short notice airspace closures, local rules about where you may take off and land, permission from the landowner, and privacy law all sit outside them and need checking separately.

Flight Window is a planning aid, not an authority to fly. It uses third party data that may be wrong or incomplete. A clear display is not permission to fly. Always check official weather and airspace sources before flying.
