The meeting point.
The meeting point will be outside Luton Airport Parkway Train Station. There is ample room there for a meeting and see who needs lifts etc. As you approach the station building there are a few telephone boxes just to the left(to the right if you arrive by train). Opposite them are plenty of car parking spaces. Best to meet there about 15mins before meeting with Steve. The tower is only 5 mins away if that. Just follow the road around towards the terminal and you will see on the left some gates. Pull up outside them and wait for Steve. He will open the gates and let you in giving you a car park pass to display in your car. Have a good time.

Just saw this. I live in sunny Luton and occassionally fly out of there. "Jemstone blah blah blah...."
I'd love to pop up and see the ATCO's at Luton.
Vintage ATCO, any chance? Got a licence/security pass for Luton/passport x2.
On another note, any one know the cheeky ATCO in Cov Tower that tries to impersonate my accent? He's a laugh.

Yes 1500 is the meeting time at the tower for both visits. I would advise you all to meet at the train station first as there is not much room to wait around by the gates for the tower. Some people are arriving by train so could do with a lift around the corner.
Reddo, If you get no joy with Steve then you can go if someone drops out but I am sure Steve will be able to help you sort out a visit.

Righto, I'll check my roster. (have to get back to you)
Oh, if another spot becomes available, Checkboard might be interested too.
Oh darn it. Unless I get a roster change (ahahaha) I'm in LPL.

Big, big thank you to BRL for organising the visit and Steve/vinatge ATCO for showing us round. It was great to see you guys in action. Absolutely fascinating to watch all the little asterisks manoeuvering around Luton. Any Prpruners out flying today - we were watching!
To those going next weekend - you're going to love it.
