I did my BA Famil Course as part of my ATCO training about 3 years ago. Went to Lisbon and Zurich. I remember the approach into Zuroch very well. Betwixt two rather formidable looking mountains and in receipt of some rather uncomfortable vortex wake - "the worst I've ever encountered" according to the Captain.

The flight to Lisbon was uneventful, apart from the fact that we were lucky enough to be departing LL just after Concorde. Fortunately I had me camera with me (how sad!) and got some smashing photos.

Ah those were the days......
