In addition to the good post from eyeinthesky, we can see you about 150 miles west of Shannon by winding out the range on our conventional radar at Swanwick. The advance picture can be a useful guide on the need to carry out short-term tactical re-routes, or whether to open up another sector.....although we will already have a good idea of the track loadings several hours before that [from flow control].
