There's an excellent resource on the Blackbushe website which is particularly relevant to their visitors but also gives an insight in to how the airspace is coordinated. Well worth a read before venturing to that part of the World.

2 weeks ago. I flew from the South-west to Biggin Hill, routing South of Lasham, via the Alton and Frensham VRPs, getting a service from Farnborough West. I see that my route and chosen level would still be valid today, so not much change for East-West routing. I can see that some N/S and variant routes could be a bit problematic. The Blackbushe site says Farnborough have 6-7 movements an hour, so there should be no delay in getting a crossing of the Class D. The major issue, from what I can see, is gliding from Lasham and people wanting to bimble about without an A-B plan.
