But, BF ...

The BHX thing is only b'caus the ATIS met contents only make up about 25% of the total info - the remaining 75% covers everything from the flow control of the (now famous) wood pidgeons crossing btw 0900 and 0945 at 100 to 150 ft AAL to the 33 GS that has been out of service for the last year or so

Seriously - a v. good ATC unit, if they just could stop airport management from digging up everything & trying to fix everyting in one big (and rather protracted) go. Maybe look to MAN - changes are slow, but keep the ATIS below the recommended 30 sec.

Or - revert to stating "Airfield information : RCL avbl, stop-end lights avbl, threshold identifier lights avbl, wood pidgeons in progress, report type & info X Q1006 on first contact"

Doh! - forgot the THR elevation!
