You could turn it into a "secure" observation area.

Is that why it is consistently has the highest number (pro quota) of slot busters from any UK airport.
May I suggest that you come and join us at our slot busting airport... makes the job a lot easier! |
Just heard from my best mate in NATS that Gary D was the first controller to talk to Aircraft from the new Tower! Good on yer mate! Well deserved and hopefully catch up soon. Congrats to all who have made the move work. The real stars of NATS! and not the beancounters!:D

Gary D was indeed the first to talk to an aircraft from the new tower...shame the aircraft he spoke to was inbound from HKG and it was about 4.30am, as the pilot couldn't have sounded less bothered if he'd tried!!!!!!! Very amusing though!! :)

In my local rag: -
New air traffic control centre opens Airport operators have apologised in advance for increased noise levels as a new air traffic control centre opens. On Saturday, air traffic control operations for Heathrow Airport moved to a new state of the art £50m centre as part of the Terminal 5 project. Air traffic controllers have undergone an extensive training programme to familiarise themselves with the new view of the airport and new equipment, but as a precautionary measure the airport will be landing fewer planes at a time Out of interest, how many planes do you normally land at a time? |
