It's great to see that the conversation over the last year has turned from its never going to happen to constructive q's about glide slopes and a/c types. about time.. I have lived under the flight path for the last 30 years and
it doesn't bother me in the slightest although I do have to agree with someone's earlier comment about the EP helicopter on a Friday night! Its like their weekly outing over our houses has become so regular you can set your watch by it.
Anyway I was wondering and Express Flight I suspect you may know the answer to this but is SEN keeping its radar service? I saw it mentioned they've ordered a SSR but I would have thought SEN would have gone the same way as STN and farmed it's radar service out to NATS at Swanwick therefore reducing head count etc It would be good to know they've kept it.
