Just curios.
Just to add slightly to Spiney's answer - on occasion Barton traffic will cause a problem to 24R traffic at Manchester, this is of course is when Barton are conducting aerobatics in the overhead and an extra 1000ft of airspace above the Barton ATZ is delegated to Barton Information. The standard Go-around procedure at Manchester assumes that traffic in the Barton ATZ will be below 2000ft, so when Barton is operating to to 3000ft then Manchester will also apply the non standard procedure.
