Remember going to work one morning and counting 35 diversions. No more space to park aircraft.
Disused runway and 17/35 full, north side taxiways full, some on BAC site and a Vanguard by the tower blocking that taxiway.
All of Courtlines 1-11s, Lufthansa 727s and 737s, Dan-Air comets, TMAC CL-44, Tridents, Viscounts, Vanguard, Alitalia DC-9.
Happy days.
