I certainly have seen 'VFR' arrivals into 500 OVC 1500m, they always seem to be straight ins - sometimes even following a set of conveniently located navaids and waypoints!. At places like Lydd,Shoreham,Fairoaks,Denham,etc, I suspect these arrivals will increase during the period. At places like South End, Southampton, Bournemouth, Farnborough, etc. I suspect they will actually be off limits without a real slot in that they probably will be very busy.

I must admit Shoreham as an example of the restrictive nature of the slots allocation during the Olympic period is a good example, 33 IFR movements maximum in 24 hours with a peak time allocation of two movements per hour. Movements of course are a departure OR arrival IFR.

Peter - have you booked yourself any slots yet?
