Can't see what all the fuss is about; it's been done before (Luton, Stansted, Farnborough, Edinburgh)
Another insightful post.
I suppose it is to be expected that someone comes on here and , quite rightly notes, that perhaps the largest and most complex VCR move that the UK has ever seen, invovling not only a new Flight Data presentation method, but also a different perspective, vastly different procedures associated with its' operation and a host of other new systems has all "been done before".
I think, Chevvron, you'll find that each element has been done before - but not every single one, on the same night, at (whether you like it or not) the busiest airport in the UK.
