     The Civil Aviation Department (CAD) today (June 30) reminded the public that temporary restricted flying zones (RFZs) will be established in the area around Stonecutters Island, Victoria Harbour and Tathong Channel from July 2 to July 6. All aircraft, including planes, helicopters and small unmanned aircraft (SUA), will be restricted from entering the area concerned. Other flying activities will also be restricted within the temporary RFZs.

     "To facilitate arrangements for special operations, CAD will establish temporary RFZs in the area around Stonecutters Island, Victoria Harbour and Tathong Channel (see the area indicated by a red dotted line in the attachments) with effect during respective periods between July 2 and July 6. No aircraft will be permitted to enter the zones, except for Government Flying Service flights.

     Other flying activities, such as the flying of model aircraft, kites and captive balloons, and mass release of small balloons, will also be restricted within the temporary RFZs," a spokesman for CAD said.

     Airlines and pilots have been informed of the establishment of the temporary RFZs via the Notice to Airmen. CAD has also announced the details of the temporary RFZs on the electronic portal for small unmanned aircraft "eSUA".
