MAC, AT M ., Additionally, under national aviation law, an aircraft shall not take-off from or land at any place in the State save at an aerodrome licensed under S.I. 355 of 2008 – Aerodromes and Visual Ground Aids Order., Another recognised hazard from the reduced traffic at aerodromes is the increased presence of wildlife habitation at aerodromes., The rate of SMI in 2021 was at its lowest rate since 2013., While the welcome gradual phased unlocking in 2021 was later than the traditional springtime return to the VFR season, it did benefit the peak summer-autumn season.

Shining of lasers at aircraft Weather related go around Deviation from ATC Clearance In 2014, the IAA received 1,162 occurrence reports from Irish AT S p r oviders., At the European level EASA is the European Aviation Safety Agency., Safety requirements for aerodromes are not based around the type of licence held; instead they are in proportion to the type of aircraft that use it and other considerations (such as whether night or low visi- bility operations are permitted there)., The most common occurrence submitted by ATS was ‘Laser shone at aircraft’., The majority of incidents recorded involve General Aviation (GA) aircraft, reflecting that whereas most GA VFR flights are conducted outside control areas and zones, some infringements into the outer mar- gins of controlled airspace by GA aircraft do occur.
