And a polite reminder that its HEATHROW DIRECTOR who should be told on first contact and not LONDON! There is no point telling me what weather information you have either, I have no idea if that is correct or not.
It is quite amazing how many plans are filed with incorrect types. It doesn't help that the Paris computer doesn't currently have all the types and variations stored in it so London have been checking many of them. It makes a difference to us as an A340-600 climbs far better than an A340-300 so we can plan for that.
Bring on full Mode S and all the other systems that means we will no longer need to do all this............
