AIRSPACE OBSTRUCTION: HEATHROW (SOUTHALL)

A permanent aerodrome obstruction entry has been registered for the lower-altitude flight corridors near London Heathrow Airport. Remote pilots must adjust local site risk assessments to maintain required clearances.

LOCATION DETAILS—Merrick Place, Merrick Road, Southall, London (UB2 4AU) at coordinates 51°30'20"N, 000°22'38"W. ELEVATION VALUES—The tower structure reaches 431 ft AGL (Above Ground Level) and 537 ft AMSL (Above Mean Sea Level). Lighting Profile—Equipped with operational steady red safety lighting for night and low-visibility recognition. CONTEXT & RUNWAY RISK—Positioned within the Heathrow (EGLL) airfield's circling area. Due to direct proximity to intensive international commercial runway vectors, drone operators must maintain a defensive flight posture. COMPLIANCE DIRECTIVE—Remote operators are strictly required to preserve an unbroken visual line of sight, remain entirely clear of this structural vertical column, and yield unconditional right-of-way to all approaching or departing manned aircraft.

DATA CLASSIFICATION: Sourced via UK CAA NOTAM ID EGGN/A2115/24 (AIP EGLL AD 2.10 / Obstacle ID: 2024021538).
