Skipness... No one is suggesting OR has suggested BA crews are less competent etc etc, blah blah blah... WHATEVER...
It is a FACT that BA crews AND BA Ops LHR have advised the handling agent (AVIANCE UK in EDI) - that they would rather go to GLA than land on 12/30 under ceretain conditions - Fair point, although other airlines and aircraft (same aircraft type), have landed with NO problems or issues.
Granted different operators may have slightly different minimums / operating criteria but in general, BA are the ones who do most of the humming and hawing.
Beleive me, AVIANCE GLA dont like it much when they are put on 'standby' to accept an A319/20/21 at very short notice!
