PA7, assume that you are a Vagabond?
Nope - guess again. Far more cryptic than that (and I can just about do the Sun Quickie Crossword!)

Hey Wee J - how the devil are you? Good to see that you are not too busy pushing clip folders around!! Don't tell me that you are missing ATC! Drop 'er indoors an email when you get 5 mins.

Farnborough ... the busiest LARS unit in the UK.
Are there figures anywhere to support this? It was said recently, (I don't know if it was here or on the Flyer board), that one of the RAF units was the busiest. Waddington rings a bell, I think.

Cool

Yes, NATS publishes it's own figures, and bear in mind that Waddington is open 24 hrs. Farnborough isn't. In 2003 a LARS aircraft called Farnborough on average every 3.5 minutes. I think A Watch spoke to every one of them (...sorry, in-joke).

(Hello Mr M, don't do clip folders but looking forward to 6 weeks off in the summer. And I miss it like a hole in the skull....)

Are you accusing A Watch of actually opening LARS time for an EG me thinks
