No it doesn't as the Tower at LTN isn't airside anyway (but is situated inside a controlled-access security compound with a controlled entry system).

Ring NATS Luton's Admin on 01582 395229/395230 and ask to arrange a visit. They'll liaise with an ATC Watch Manager for you to fix up a mutually convenient time and date: but avoid nights, weekends & BHs when the ATC staffing tends to be minimal, and so there may not be anyone free to host you. :ok:

Is this possible at LBA as I've phoned the airport(not ATC) and they said no. Do you think they'll mind if I phone them direct at the ATC? I've seen the number on AIS but it's down to the old thing should I bother them directly!!!!

I have just come back from a visit to ATC and the ATCO's complain they are seeing far less of people than before - and here is why... I went and the car stopped at the security gate to go airside, it was underneath shoes checking, metal detectors, clear pockets, three forms to fill in triplicate, passport checked and cleared. Meanwhile I didn't even see it but security guards were doing a thorough search on my vehicle and found, god forbid, a bottle of water that I had in the car which was held until my return. Then there was the issue of the bottle of wine which had to be held back as well that I wanted to give the ATCO's as a thank you for a visit.. liquid... detained!

so it isn't the easiest start - now try bringing in say 12 students to show them around and repeat that 12 times, and by the time you have finished the form filling the shift that you wanted to see have changed over!
