Establishment of a TMZ Luxembourg over German territory
Taking effect
with AIRAC date 08 March 2012, a Transponder Mandatory Zone (TMZ) will be
established over German territory.
DFS representatives and those responsible
for this field within the Luxembourg air navigation service provider ANA have
defined this TMZ in consultation with airspace users. The purpose of this
measure is to increase air safety. Map
Changes within the area of responsibility of BREMEN ACC
There will be
editorial changes for Lübeck-Blankensee airport (EDHL) concerning instrument
approach and departure procedures. These changes relate to the following:
completed extension of the runway, adjustment of obstacle clearance
altitude/height and replacement of existing middle marker (MM).
Changes within the area of responsibility of Munich ACC/UAC
With effect from AIRAC date 8 March 2012, the night route system will be
expanded by the routes shown below for flights in north-westerly direction:
In addition, UQ856 south of the existing (U)L856 will be implemented. UQ856

Paperless Strip System PSS
After the successful implementation of PSS in
the southern and northern control sectors of the DFS Control Centre Munich, this
system will also be introduced in the eastern control sector extending from
Erlangen to Leipzig in the night between 3 and 4 March 2012.
At the
beginning of this advanced implementation phase, sector capacities in the
eastern sectors of Munich FIR will be adjusted to ensure safe handling of air
traffic. This is why delays due to air traffic flow management (ATFCM) measures
cannot be completely ruled out. Afterwards, sector capacities will gradually be
raised again.
