London Heathrow is by far the most challenging airport I've flown into.

I've heard many rumours/stories that some pilots can't handle the pressure for landing at Heathrow so they divert to Manchester and/or quit their job.

I've also heard of many potential runway incursions, mid-air collisions during climb-out/final approach, etc. Scary stuff!
