I did a liaison vist there years ago when I first arrived at Farnbrorough. The wind was south westerly favouring runway 24, but this didn't have ILS, so there was a Monarch '720 doing visual and ILS circuits on 27, interleaving with an Andover doing 5.5 deg MLS approaches; on the reciprocal 09 there was a Hunter doing 1 in 1s, and there was the odd departure/arrival on runway 24; yes it did get busy!!
