One issue to monitor this week and which hopefully will go away.

All UK military airfields have switched to using 8.33kHz channels. Many have been NOTAM'ed but the AIP database hasn't yet updated, so the old 25kHz frequencies remain shown on pop-up menus. This should be resolved with the next AIRAC cycle on 12 July, but probably worth double checking.

There are a few which don't have NOTAMs, so it's unclear if they will change. Examples include Little Rissington which operates an Air/Ground service (Rissington Radio) for gliding activities at weekends.

Unfortunately, the point here is that the Military AIP is not accurate.
