Private pilots will plot the points and draw them on their paper charts, because that’s part of flying, that’s what we all do and no-one uses electronic navigation aids or sources of information.
If putting sarcasm on the internet, it is necessary to make it very obvious and you did that correctly
I’d add one thing:
Commercial pilots don’t worry about it as their ops department takes care of it.
Actually they fly almost totally in CAS and most of these RAs are OCAS. Also they fly under ATC control and when flying thus, ATC keep you away from anything active. This is why enroute notams are almost never looked at for such flights – one of the advantages of having an IR
Here is another – a Belgian pilot got a £5000 fine for this one some years ago
This time it is for just a short part of one day. On previous occassions the area was closed for several days, IIRC.
I called Brize and Farnborough about some of the restrictions as some of them have a component where is says if you are in receipt of a service then entry is possible.

Reply…..should be fine sir, we’re not actually too busy today and we’ve got everything on radar with enough space to keep everything moving. Give us an early call and you probably be right through.
How’d it go?
Easy peasy.
The Eastbourne air show in on mid August. There is likely to be a prohibited zone for the whole week.
My post #12 was something much smaller…
