Hey, Bren, we should have a whole new thread about JK, it seems that Gonzo, Snow, point seven and co need learn something about LHR ATC social history. Remember the tally board in the 6th floor SBU? JK was the one who held the record for 'the most aircraft cleared for take-off at any one time', what with his conditionals from inside the Bravos etc.

Presumably then, from what you say, he also made the record for 'the most aircraft on various final approaches at any one time'...? Was he 'young enough' to have operated in the old N.side tower? Certainly a living legend. Good luck to him.

Can you remember any more of the unnoficial 'records' and the 'record breakers'? Perhaps Shack can re-kindle a fading memory too. That would be a lot more interesting than the 'Emirates aborted landing' thread.
