I have put forward 4 dates in October. Just waiting to hear back for confirmation of one of them. Once the date is sorted, I will pick 6 names from the 'magic hat of joy' and will go from there.

There is a chance of doing this in November and also December so don't despair if you don't get pulled from the hat this time around.
Watch this space. :)

No longer interested, as Warped Factor's post has pointed out that Luton Approach are not there, which would be why I was interested.

For anyone that likes this sort of thing, I can report that a visit to Farnborough Radar is well worthwhile... arranged through PPRUNE, together with 1013.25 about a year ago... very interesting, and provides wonderful insight and appreciation of what goes on on the other side of the mic!

Does anyone have a contact at West Drayton, and can arrange a visit there?

Add me in please

Are 'late applicants' with a history of memory loss following PPRuNe do's allowed? No? That's me out then....:(

Id love to go if possible (can make any day / time except Mon & Wed afternoons).

Thanks

ME TOOOOOO PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
 

I can get to Luton via City Thameslink! so although LGW is my "Home Airport" I would love to see ATC ops!! ANYWHERE!! :D

CC,

Stay tuned.....

WF.

WF I'd be up for that as well. I'd like to have a chat with the 129.55 bods and thank them for their help over the years.

LowNSlow/CC,

See this thread.

WF.

The date for this event is FRIDAY 18TH OCTOBER. Not sure on a time yet, that will have to be arranged soon though, i reckon about midday or 1300ish. Got nothing lined up yet in regards to other visits but i am working on it now. I will do the 'draw' this Wednesday 09 October.

:( B*gger!

Take me out of your magic hat please BRL - can't make that date.

Here we go then, [list=a][*]Don D Cake[*]eveepee[*]Brockenspectre[*]Ianpoll[*]DistaffBeancounter[/list=a]

I need your Car reg numbers(will be using the atco compound) and your passport numbers, address and mobiles please.(Send to my e-mail address)

Those of you not on here there will be 2 more coming up. More details nearer the time. (November/December.)

The time of this will be 1430 Meet up at Luton Airport Parkway train station forcourt (Easy to find, loads of space) at about 1415ish. Pick up those not travelling in car then head off in cars to tower.

There is a free shuttle bus that runs frequently from Parkway to the terminal, and that's only a short walk from the tower.

YAY!!!!!!!
 

I am so looking forward to this!

Subject to trains (Connex and Thameslink) running to schedule I should be at Luton Airport between 1400hrs and 1417hrs on the day!

We'll have to set up some kind of recognition signal so I know which car(s) to flag down for a lift - don't want to find myself being arrested!!

:D :D

brockenspectre If you just make your way to the front of the station where the bus stops. If i decide to take the new car for a spin up that way(I might get the train) then you can come in mine but i know at least 1 other person is driving so they may be able to offer a lift in her powerful car. :)

BRL
As you finally accepted my enhanced bribe (of twice, including once after midnight ;) ), I feel that it is the least that I can do, to offer you a lift from the station. :D

I could pick up a total of 4, at a pinch - well it will be a pinch, if you are all big fellas :D

That is always assuming that I can find Luton Airport Parkway, as I only know the station in the centre of Luton. If all else fails - I'll look at the map. (Well, that's how I usually navigate!)

I suppose for recognition, I should stand there holding a large label PPRUNE 'cos that's what I will feel like :D

Required details being sent to you by email. :)

Ianpoll Please get in touch A.S.A.P.

Don D Cake is also driving so i will be getting the train. New car or not, I don't fancy the drive back down the M1 then round the M25 and then onto the M23/A23 on a friday afternoon/eve.:eek:

I will be at Parkway around 1400ish.
