BOAC are you saying you would have done the same then ?

Lyka - what are you talking about?

FR2054 plog was 5887kgs they took 6500kgs. 600kg extra.
FR5998 plog was 8917kgs they took 9200kgs. 300kg extra.
FR5389 plog was 11,828kgs they took 12,720kgs. 800kg extra. .
If some of you looked at the facts you will realise they took enough fuel.
Really ?!!!

Looking at the above figures, the FR5998 took just 283 kg extra into a known busy TMA at a major airport on a night with extensive FORECAST thunderstorm activity.

And as 737Jock says :-

I wonder what everybody else took? All those aircraft that didn't declare a Mayday
