Heathrow Visit
As my "name" suggests, I am an ex Heathrow controller from the late 70's. I will be visiting the UK in early November, is a tower visit possible given the new location and security measures, if so can some one give a contact point? PM me if you prefer.

I believe it takes two days just to reach the tower with all the security. Anyway, good luck. I've not been up there!

Give Gonzo a PM....sure he can help.

If you happen to fly in/out of T3 it'll make things much easier!
