Quite, Ian. LGW is ridiculously busy for a single runway, and the density of operations exceed that of just about anywhere else at peak times. It's unusual to get anything other than a land after, crossing 100-150', during peak times, but still you won't have two aircraft cleared to land at the same time. And there is far less RT confusion and repetition because the controllers speak clearer and slower, and use standard RTF. But obviously the LGW controllers are inferior because they're not American and they don't sound cool...
