Effective 31 October 2025 The French vACC have introduced a new position PAR_LOW_CTR (135.410 MHz) that does not extend coverage into Brest or Reims airspace. Therefore, at SITET/XAMAB/XIDIL it extends only to FL295 and at the interface with LAC Dover and TC SE, up to FL265. The PAR_CTR (128.275 MHz) position continues to extend into Brest East airspace (FL295+ at SITET/XAMAB) and into Reims (FL265+) at the interface with London. The new position and ownership are reflected in the 2025/11a version of the sector file. Documentation Status The LoA has been updated. The London (EGTT) vMATS Part 2 and Agreed Levels Diagrams will be updated at their next revision.
