NOTAM Ceiling Confusion

1

Hi,

I am having trouble understanding certain NOTAMs/TFRs.

At London City (EGLC), it says “Aircraft larger than A318 not authorized (A223, E-Jets and C130s are allowed). Larger aircraft MUST divert.” This NOTAM has a ceiling of 10,000ft.

Does the NOTAM only apply to planes landing at the airport, or does it also apply to planes flying over the airport?

For example, if I’m flying a 777 en route to Heathrow, but I will be flying over London City at 6,000ft, will I be violating the NOTAM? Am I only allowed to fly inside the red circle above 10,000ft?

Thanks to anyone who answers.

Just for aircraft going in and out of LCY. Traffic overflying the NOTAM (even under 10K feet) are not effected.
