OK for Stansted it depends on the runway in use and the direction of approach. If inbound from the west (Puckeridge)or north (BKY or Audley End) then it would be report approaching the airfield boundary or Hap then cleared to land. From the east (Greta Dunmow) hold at the Diamond hangar, or if it is 23 in use and the Helo is familiar with the airfield then hold by the Control tower, Then Tfc info given when approaching the CTB, and clearance given to cross the runway at the threshold and then routing to the HAP. Outbounds are the reverse. Simple really(clears throat thinking of all the times it hasn't worked quite as planned)............
