EGCC [Manchester] SIDs (Standard Instrument Departures) have a height limit of 5000'. A Hon1Y off 24L causes a RIGHT turn initially [to avoid Knutsford], before commencing the left turn to the HON VOR.
All slot times are in Zulu [or UTC as it's now called] and are issiued anywhere up to 4 hours in advance.
If you look at the profiles 419, you will see that a lot of us are in the aviation industry [I'm in ATC], but if you can listen in, then you will soon pick up the "jargon"
No a scanner is not illegal, BUT you can be prosecuted for "illegal use" of it.
Hope that this diatribe has clarified it somewhat
