Military ATC over Matlock Derbyshire
I have been asked about frequencies for military traffic over Matlock, Derbyshire. Unfortunately you are situated underneath a large chunk of civilian airspace, so there are no fixed military frequencies for this area. However, there is a military corridor called the 'Lichfield corridor' streching West to East roughly from Lichfield in staffordshire to RAF Newton (now closed) in Nottinghamshire which facilitates the crossing of military traffic to and from airbases on the eastern side of the Uk to their training ranges in Wales etc. For the military airband listener it is possible to listen in on fast jet traffic and also quite frequently Brize Norton based tanker aircraft transiting these corridors but, as far as I know there are not any specific allocated frequencies for this? I could list all the London Military allocated frequencies but time doesn't allow now, if anybody would like me to do this I might bow to pressure from readers!
