Narrative:
R3005 was shown inactive (cold) on sav's status information board. When an inbound aircraft was coordination with lhw tower, lhw tower advised R3005 area 'C' was active (hot) since XA30. Aircraft #1 and aircraft #2 were allowed to transit since sav did not know it was active (hot). Sav controller in charge called 'ZJX mission' which confirmed active (hot) status. Sav immediately vectored other aircraft away from R3005 area 'C' and changed the status information area to show correct status. Lhw tower works closely with R3005 range control (both united states army facilities). 'ZJX missions' has the responsibility to let all facilities know active times of R3005. R3005 range control coordinates with 'ZJX missions' on real-time basis of the restr area.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: OPDEV OCCURRED BECAUSE SAV APCH CTL WAS UNAWARE THE R3005 AREA WAS HOT. THE AREA HAD BEEN PENETRATED BY 2 GA ACFT.
Narrative: R3005 WAS SHOWN INACTIVE (COLD) ON SAV'S STATUS INFO BOARD. WHEN AN INBOUND ACFT WAS COORD WITH LHW TWR, LHW TWR ADVISED R3005 AREA 'C' WAS ACTIVE (HOT) SINCE XA30. ACFT #1 AND ACFT #2 WERE ALLOWED TO TRANSIT SINCE SAV DID NOT KNOW IT WAS ACTIVE (HOT). SAV CIC CALLED 'ZJX MISSION' WHICH CONFIRMED ACTIVE (HOT) STATUS. SAV IMMEDIATELY VECTORED OTHER ACFT AWAY FROM R3005 AREA 'C' AND CHANGED THE STATUS INFO AREA TO SHOW CORRECT STATUS. LHW TWR WORKS CLOSELY WITH R3005 RANGE CTL (BOTH UNITED STATES ARMY FACILITIES). 'ZJX MISSIONS' HAS THE RESPONSIBILITY TO LET ALL FACILITIES KNOW ACTIVE TIMES OF R3005. R3005 RANGE CTL COORDINATES WITH 'ZJX MISSIONS' ON REAL-TIME BASIS OF THE RESTR AREA.
