LHR - Steeper Approaches trial 14 September 2015

If people didn't routinely do 160/4 then I would imagine the whole heathrow operation would fall to pieces. It's easily doable. However in less than ideal conditions you will sometimes be doing it with gear and flap and dragging it in. The increased angle and 160/4 is a less than ideal condition, so unless there's a strong headwind I'll be dragging it in and it'll completely negate the trial.
