Coventry inbound

Hello, was based at Coventry for all my 7 years and never spoke to birmingham once , just get below 1500 QNH by Draycote VRP, give Cov a call a bit earlier than that maybe at Daventry and they will tell you to report at Draycote for joining instructions ( get the ATIS first, always goes down well with ATC) and a squawk that will let brum know Cov are looking after you, really very friendly lot. Doubt if you will need to hold as very little commercial traffic at Cov these days.
I assume you have a transponder. Keep a good lookout, can get quite busy around Draycote .
Good luck.
