16. 7th ATC Flight Detachment SPECIAL USE AIRSPACE  Restricted Areas (EDRs) mainly include military training terrain; extend from the ground up to varying altitudes, and are predominantly active Mon - Fri and in some cases permanently.  Specific restricted areas with the additional TRA (Temporary Reserved Airspace) serve military exercise flights. These areas are active Mon - Fri, their vertical limits are variable, and the lower limits are partly below FL 100. They are established for uncontrolled VFR flights in single and two seat combat jet aircraft. Military aircraft are not separated from each other.  Danger Areas (EDD) exist over the North Sea and the Baltic Sea and should be avoided in the interest of safety.  See AP/2A for listing & effective times.
