LUTON tower visit.
We have had a good offer from one of the atco's at Luton to be our sponser for a tower visit. Much the same as the gatwick one, put your names down here and a draw will be made. There was a lot of interest for gatwick and i hope there is a lot for this one too.
(The gatwick visit will also incude a visit to the HQ of one of the charters based there and also a possible visit to the big maintenance hangar on the south side of the field. Similar can be arranged for Luton if the interest is there. Not promising anything though, will just have to see what comes up nearer the time.)
Names please.........

Why do it if it's not fun?

As much as I'd love to visit Luton, I feel that would just be a bit too greedy since I've already been to Swanwick and was lucky enough to be picked for Gatwick.
I'll tell you what, BRL - in the unlikely event that you don't get enough people wanting to go, put my name down. But if others want to go, I should probably give them a chance.

As an Elstree flyer, it would be very helpful to meet those nice people on 129.55 (who will still give you a LARS-type service if they can).
Please put me down too, though it looks like I may have read this post too late.....

pandh,
Unfortunately you won't meet them on a visit to Luton Tower, the 129.55 people live at the London Terminal Control Centre at West Drayton.
Just for info the approach control for Luton, Stansted, Gatwick and Heathrow is done from the LTCC.
Thames and SVFR are currently still at Heathrow Tower, don't know for how much longer tho'......
