Can I apologise for being a bit harsh earlier. The more I see of London City the more I understand just how demanding the place is for ATC. Where alse could you see an ANA 747-400 loom out of the clouds in the overhead leading 4 landing lights from a jet black cloud at about 3000ft ( you could read the titles with the naked eye) whilst you had traffic on approach on a runway at 90 degrees to the Heathrow inbounds.
The ATC is spot on. It bloody well has to be!!
(I'm scared)
