Hello,

I am learning to do my NPPL locally to LGW, and I was wondering; if there is any possibility someone can PM me a contact for the right person to contact to try for a visit. I have Birth Certificate, passport and 5 year traceable history if thats needed at a minimum.

I believe Swanwick might be more Interesting and appropriate, but any thoughts along with this.

I would greatly appreciate it please.

Kindest Regards,

Robbie

I'd try to arrange a visit to Terminal Control at Swanwick, and try to speak with some of the approach controllers - that's probably the best way of appreciating the complexity of the TMA airspace. Also FIS might be worth a visit while you're there too.

This thread has some discussion about arranging visits:
