An airspace of defined dimensions, above the land areas or territorial waters of a State, within which the flight of aircraft is prohibited. This term is used only when the flight of civil aircraft within the designated airspace is not permitted at any time under any circumstances.
An airspace of defined dimensions, above the land areas or territorial waters of a State, within which the flight of aircraft is restricted in accordance with certain specified conditions. This term is used whenever the flight of civil aircraft within the designated airspace is not absolutely prohibited but may be made only if specified conditions are complied with. Thus, prohibition of flight except at certain specified times leads to the designation of the airspace as a "Restricted Area", as would prohibition except in certain meteorological conditions. Similarly, prohibition of flight unless special permission has been obtained leads to the designation of a "Restriction Area". However, conditions of flight imposed as a result of application of the Rules of the Air or air traffic services practices or procedures, (For example, compliance with minimum safe heights or with rules stemming from the establishment of controlled airspace) do not constitute conditions calling for designation of a "Restricted Area".
An airspace of defined dimensions within which activities dangerous to the flight of aircraft may exist at specified times. This term is used only when the potential danger to aircraft has not led to the designation of the airspace as "Restricted" or "Prohibited". The effect of the creation of the Danger Area is to caution operators or pilots of aircraft that it is necessary for them to assess the dangers in relation to their responsibility for the safety of their aircraft.
