what is your motive for slagging off at the crew and Rex as you have been for several posts? Are you seriously suggesting ysbk would have been the best option from there?
If so why? Brief the landing at bk from that position for us and explain why it would be the better option - I would assume with a southerly wind on that day they would be using the 11 rwys, how are they going to set themselves up for that from where they are? What altitude are they? What configuration? How long will it take to get into bk from there compared to sy? Why would it be shorter or better time-wise or facility wise or workload wise? Over what sort of area will they need to fly to set themselves up to land on 11c at bk? What traffic did bk have - would they need time to close the airspace and get circuit and inbound traffic clear?
Hope the crew are not reading what you are saying as I would think it is highly offensive.
