A real mixed bag as a single runway airport traffic dictates.
ADNID SID was brilliant gave the tower a minute split on Sam and ADNIDS(previously BOGNAS), TMA loved it as it facilitated a an earlier climb.Only complainer was a resident who loved in WARNHAM and stirred a lot of trouble, unfortunately the airport owners were not up for the fight and basically caved in, they did want bad press before they were awarded a second runway.
EGG ON FACES I PRESUME.
New ANSP, a few GAtwick controllers staying with NATS, a few joining DFS, 6 new DFS trainess started this month. Interesting times ahead.
Tma did not love the adnid. You are confusing that Sid with the doken from egll. That was loved. The adnid was 50/50 at best for tc South
