This page details our responses to the various official aviation consultations from last year. We endeavour to explain the aims and content of these consultations and, via our Newsletters and Blog posts, give guidance and help on how to understand and complete these sometimes very technical documents.
In addition we list the results of these consultations and various reports from the aviation industry and government.
