Broadcast of arrival and departure times
Back in the dim and distant past when I was an ATCA at Heathrow, I seem to recall that the Air Controller broadcast the landing or take-off time of each aircraft. It was done mainly, I think, for the benefit of various people monitoring the frequency rather than that of the aircraft.
I was wondering if this is still done at Heathrow (or anywhere else for that matter) or has the introduction of modern technology removed the need for this practice?
