Stage B - (Confirmation of readiness - Q1/Q2 2022) Please address feedback to with the subject line - AVOKA Feedback. Feedback received alongside wider stakeholder engagement will be used to assist development of the new partly automated notification and assessment process detailed in Phase 3. The CAA would welcome feedback on the new form's effectiveness. Where the new online notification form is being used, the operators should note within the application if they are trial participants.Where the CAA are required to be notified, the DAP 1924 or the new online notification form can be utilised to support the provision of the required data. Operators are to note the mandatory requirement now in force to notify the CAA of any crane that is (or is proposed to be) at or above 100 metres AGL regardless of proximity to aerodromes or height of surrounding structures. To assist with identifying relevant aerodromes, the Non-Trial Crane Notification Areas - 6km can be used to identify aerodromes with safeguarded areas. Within this guidance, the crane users are encouraged to liaise directly with local aerodrome license holders/operators. During this step, all operators who are not taking part in the trial are to continue to use the notification guidance (on this page).Operators who wish to take part in the trial should contact Airspace Regulation to discuss participation. All trial participants should use the new online notification form. Selected operators who are taking part in the trial will utilise the CAP1096 published guidance.Stage A - (Second trial - 1st October 2021 to 31st March 2022) Close Phase 1 - Endedĭue to a recent change to the Air Navigation Order, there is now a mandatory requirement to notify the CAA of all cranes of a height of 100 m Above Ground Level (AGL) and more. During this step, all operators are to use the process outlined in Phase 1 Stage A (2). During this process the CAA will continue to engage with the industry and stakeholders to prepare for subsequent phases. The CAA will utilise this period to reflect upon the trial results to identify potential improvements and amendments to the CAP1096 process. Stage B - (Trial reflection - 1st June 2021 to 30th September 2021) Where the CAA are required to be notified, the DAP 1924 can be utilised to support the provision to the required data. However, where any crane is expected to extend to a height of 90m or more, to assist crane operators, the CAA upon request will attempt to provide comment, guidance or recommendation on a case-by-case basis.
