That piece of sky is extremely familiar to me. It is in cloud right now. I am looking at it as I type.

But for the 1000 feet, I assume that sometimes almost head-on conflict between LHR base approach and LCY departure is played out very frequently - that must sorely push the odds ?

I wonder whether London ATC's special new Mode S kit got a look in this morning, or whether it all happened too fast. (See http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?t=287326 post #15 )

Opposite track climbing and descending .... classic.
