Yes.

Thanks Dave

So, let's say the CAA made an exception that LHR could use 3.15degree Glideslope for noise/environmental reasons rather than obstacle clearance....by my calculations it would be OK when LHR is on westerlies and LCY is on easterlies that the LCY inbounds could be at 2,200ft rather than 2,000ft?
