<<Heathrow's runway 26 >>

Heathrow's runways are 27/09. They used to be 28/10 until the magnetic variation changed slightly. I was on watch the night they changed. They used every vehicle they had to try and shift the runways round... finally I added my trusty old Reliant Robin to the rope and we managed to pull them round in time for the first lander.
