We believe investing in STEM experiences and STEM curricula will best prepare our young learners to thrive in the workforce of the future, along with using STEM education to bridge the ethnic and gender gaps found predominantly in math and science fields. #STEMeducation

Infringements of the LTMA are a symptom of the needlessly large and complex design of the airspace. Oppressive altitude limits imposed on #GeneralAviation traffic pose their own safety risks. @UK_CAA needs to make cutting LTMA down to size a priority in its classification review.
Airspace Safety @airspacesafety Latest hot-spot narrative focuses around the London Control Area (LTMA) - made up of 24 different areas across a volume of airspace approximately 100 NM from West to East and, in some areas, 90 NM from North to South: airspacesafety.com/updates
