Graham O. Ek A 380.

You are spot on with these observations. This maybe a logistical nightmare. If arriving behind it during the summer months expect delays . I will want to carry more fuel and expect to hold. The airport have said that a runway inspection will take place after it lands to begin with and a runway inspection will take place after every departure. ILS signal interferences may result in following aircraft being given an RNAV approach at short notice. ( these approaches require a significant brief beforehand).
With more movements this summer and the usual Monarch lunchtime rush, the arrivals hall maybe caos. I can see passengers being held on the jet .
