Wiggy, as ex Shanwick ATC, I would naturally state that you always get what you ask for ! Has that not been your experience ? Yes, not too much fighting over the tracks nowadays . Hopefully, we will get back to normal soon (sentiments not least because my son flies for BA). Although, in this case, the Speedbird made a right turn out immediately after departure & headed up towards Manchester; whereas the Virgin went straight out towards STU. Would they both have already received their OAC clearance at this time (CPDLC) ? In my day , they would have had to call up on VHF & would have received it a bit later on.
