Heathrow Tower Visit.

Hi all. Got a visit to Heathrow Tower sorted on Saturday 11th March @ 1030.

Please put your names below if you are interested. This visit will also include a visit to the AIS who are based there too.

Max of six. There will be a good chat about Zone Infingements and stuff like that too.

Stick me on the reserve list, please - probably won't make it if the dropout rate is low, but worth a look !

Cheers

Talking

It looks to me as if you have more than enough bod's, but do let me know if anyone drops out, as I'd love to come.

Thumbs up

Good response so far. Keep putting your names down here, we can do another visit or two if demand is there for it I am told.

I give this another day or so before the list of who is going comes out. Don't despair though, as I say, we can do a few more visits if you want. Simply put your name down here if you would like to go.

I must state that the primary reason for these visits is to get talking to ATCO's and their managers and giving them feedback on the relationship between controller and pilot. This in the past has been quite successful with good feedback being given from both sides. This visit will also include a visit to TC in the afternoon for a talk and discusion on zone infringements and a look at some clips of them that have happened recently.

Just seen this.
Very keen, and would have been first to reply.
If not possible this time, yes please for another.

Sounds great, excellent idea. Unfortunately I too will be arriving on Air Canada AC860 from Halifax around that time. If you can arrange any other dates I would be very interested.
