Hello All !
Just after a bit of advise please.
I am planning a flight between Fairoaks (EGTF) and Bristol (EGGD) IFR in a twin.
I have flown out of Fairoaks a few times before, but not IFR, and always to the South!
Here's my question ...
I want to route to the North-West of Fairoaks to join airway L9 by Compton. Which way is best to route? Obviously I need to stay out of the way of Heathrow being so close to the North.
With Compton being quite close to Heathrow, would I have problems joining the airway at FL80 or FL100 with those big boys on Compton departures climbing slowly?
Any advise would be very welcome!
