| A third agreement allows gliders to cross TAY CTA via predefined corridors. These corridors are shown on the LoA schematic (refer SGC website), but the procedure needs to be studied in detail prior to use. It has been agreed with Prestwick ACC that the sectors are still classified alphabetically. The agreement only applies only to those who have read and telephone activated the procedure before launching. **Do not** invoke the procedure unless you know what you are doing. | A third agreement allows gliders to cross TAY CTA via predefined corridors.

| A fourth agreement allows gliders to penetrate the class D airspace to the West of the Edinburgh control zone. The procedure is complex and may only be used by pilots who have studied the LoA thoroughly and understand all the conditions. These include contacting the Edinburgh ATC Watch Manager by telephone to discuss details of the proposed flight, and the keeping of records of usage. No pilot should use this procedure without prior consultation with the CFI. | A fourth agreement allows gliders to penetrate the class D airspace to the West of the Edinburgh control zone.
