Cleared to a remote at LGW yesterday. Couldn't park though, due snowclearing. Had to wait. 2 minutes
You must have been one of the lucky ones...you see EGKK shut at about 5am and didnt open again until 1645....so i am presuming that you flew in after 1645 when the XCD stated 6 per hour ?? If thats the case i would have expected that the stand was clear already...after all the had just shut for 12 hours following an inch of snow.
P.S, you dont have to be a pilot to know what you are talking about when it comes to the conditions, other peoples jobs include operating on a snow covered field and having to cope....or did you just think it was the jockies ???
