An update on "you splitter" at LGW atc ask for your company to place a ready message.
A question to all. Why at LGW do most operators (the reason we are given) file EOBT for -20mins on STD. Crew report -1hr, pax expect doors to close at STD (thats the time on the ticket mate) or later if still shopping or in the bar.
Usually end up getting ops to file new EOBT as lucky to close up by STD, increasing crew, ops and atc workload etc. Telephone companies make a few bucks though.
EOBT should imho be filed for STD that gives the system time to work.
