BA/VS simultaneous departure

[V12]

Curious to know if there was a simultaneous arrival in JFK too?
…or did someone win??

I can’t see any mention online.

VS3 landed before BA1

..VS10.51 ,BA 11.00

Details are still on FR 24 for both aircraft at the mo

But the important thing is who burned the least amount of fuel?

[Kiltrash]

BA left Heathrow and went up over the West Coast of Scotland but VS went West over the ROI.
So their planner picked a shorter distance route?

Maybe, maybe not.
