Yep, "clear to land rwy 24, in the event of a missed approach remain north of the main". 06 was more interesting as they had to go through the 08 approach on left base, and then cross 08 again on final approach, unless you could persuade them to remain north of the main all the time I once had a C172 doing pleasure flights (from the speccys area) who was doing this all Sunday afternoon.

I once had Dave Huges (LFC CFI) on final 24 and a BY B737 on final for 26. I issued the "in the event of a missed approach etc" when the B737 said grumpily "Just like Heathrow".

I once went off rwy 24 four up in the back of a Tri-Pacer . . . we went round the fire station.
