Interesting comments about the London LARS service and the rationale for its introduction. I wondered if its introduction is there to help stop infringements of the London TMA, Heathrow CTZ, London City CTZ, Stansted CTR, Gatwick CTR, Luton CTR as well as providing a RAS or RIS to participating aircraft over a geograpically large area, in which case it will take more than one radar controller to do it properly and safely. If on the other hand its primary function is to provide a kind of "Flight following" to stop infrigements then can it properly called a LARS service with the implications of RAS and RIS that that title implies?
