Hi Ian,

NATS say to register now and further info will be provided late Feb or early March. I'm sure you being ready from April will not be an issue. The trial flights are bound to go on for many months. If you don't yet have the right kit installed, just report in the forms the kit you will be using.

For the previous LPAT trials, I registered in Feb 2015 and they didn't contact me to actually do anything until the end of August 2015!

Regards,
Steve
