LL Operational Requirements

[ShuttleSixYankee]

As I understand it operations start from the new Control Tower at Heathrow on the 13th Jan 2007. (Correct me if I'm mistaken)
I gather EFPS will be in operation in the new tower as well.
Are there going to be any further operational requirements in terms of the number of ATCO's required in the tower at any one time?

Cheers,

Not according to the Company Intranet.....

Seems like they hope to have it on line before Terminal 5 in 2008. No other exact date has been set.

Wishful thinking...

not enough controllers are likely to have completed their training

Is that equipment training or the physical training required for the extended walk from the car park?
