NWI 1,841m
BLK 1,869m
SEN 1,856m
BHD 1,829m

It's essential for SOU to get their extension done fast in order to prevent its existing operators from having to resort to payload penalties with wet/windy/hot conditions. !
You mean like Easyjet did at Southend on those rare hot summer days when a stop en route was sometimes required? Then there were the divisions due to its CAT 1 ILS. Is Southampton CAT 1 both ends? Also is the 1887m available both ends?
