Point taken. Yes, my example was for the half-hour from 0530L to 0600, which explains why a quick search could only find one instance in recent years.

The following half-hour brings up a few more examples, including one that's recent enough to be viewable on WebTrak - 17th January this year, where 17 heavies landed on 09L between 0601L and 0630 in the following sequence:

B763-B772-B772-A388-B744-B772-B744-B744-B789-B772-A388-B744-B744-B77W-B788-A388-B763
