I've just hand a very nostalgic time reading all these posts and looking at the photos. Does anyone know if there was ever a digital copy made of the video "In safe Hands"?.
I know it was shown at CATC for many years, I think even after APC moved to LATCC because the radar procedures didn't really change.

I'd love to see the above video again, in fact I'd pay money to watch this again.
Better still, how about youtube?

No, I remember that one as well, but the one that I am referring to was made in the late eighties (I think), long before AD arrived on the scene.
Several of the "stars" of this video climbed the managerial ladder and probably getting pretty close to retirement.

No, the film to which I refer was produced, directed and edited by AD. A short video about being an ATCO at EGLL, soundtrack PURE by THE LIGHTNING SEEDS. Not broadcast on on network TV, but shown at the CATC when AD came to visit.

That's an old video, so I'm sure it has been remarked on before, but I still love the part at around 2:55 showing simultaneous easterly landings and westerly takeoffs.
"busiest international airspace in the world"???
