Anyone have any good references or links wrt RADAR ? I appreciate some info may be a little sensitive.
Have trawled the Internet with poor response - particularly interested in range, coverage wrt to EGLL as I live nearby.
Just curious about what the big red & white rotating thing can actually see, for how far, to what altiutude for example, how do the overlapping radar beams interact ? Understand the basic principles about primary & secondary RADAR. Info about the new ground RADAR system at EGLL would also be welcome.
Often hear craft being passed off to Farnborough, or Solent for example, would like to get a better understanding of how it all fits together.
Now where is Heathrow Director when you need him !! ?
