It is understood that testing of the proposed Raytheon wind farm radar mitigation solution is ongoing at Lowther Hill in South Scotland.
Raytheon promoted this solution heavily at the recent international Air Traffic Control exhibition in the Netherlands.
Our View
Our own assessment is that this solution will be good for the industry but that there are likely to be many wind farm sites where the solution is inappropriate because of NERLs operational coverage requirements below controlled airspace.
