Here we go, we are allowed 7 people to visit the tower. The dates available are Fri Oct 4 OR Sat Oct 19th. If all goes well there shouldn't be a problem with another visit so don't despair if your not 'choosen' this time around.

As for picking the names out, shall I do it right now here at home or leave it until next Sat at the bash in London for you to witness it? What do you think?. Do you wan't to know right now so you can book a day off or can you wait a week?

Do it asap (read NOW ;) ) so we can book time, transport, etc.

Please :)

BRL - If I'm not too late, can you pop my name in the hat.

I will of course plea that I should get a place in return for organising the Swanwick visit. ;)

Noted Paulo, wouldn't be fair would it but lets see what the 'Hat' comes up with...... ;)

Alternatively guys why don't you just organise it yourself, most atc visits I have had were done by myself and the ATCO's are normally very accomodating.

Just trying to save you from being disappointed!

Righto Caleldonian. Your volunteering to sort out the next one then..... :) Definitley not Prestwick though eh...... ;)

L take me out of the hat for the 4th October, can't make that one I'm afraid.

Count me in BRL! Should think that my dad will want to go along aswell!


Cheers,

If anyone needs a lift from either Redhill or some of the local stations, assuming you don't all drive then let me know. Given that the 4th is POETS day and I live locally it makes no odds to me.:D

19th Please
 

I won't be able to make 4th October so you may as well take me out of the hat for that one. Still interested in the 19th, tho'.

LB.

BRL

Thanks for your efforts - I can't make 4th, but I'm OK for 19th.

Ok, I have decided to do the draw thingy now. Just put all names into plastic container and this is what has come out.......

• Myself**
• Saab Dastard
• Evo7
• AerBabe
• Paulo
• Flyingforfun
• Sennadog

**Obviously I wasn't in the draw, so no shouting that its a fix please. :)
If you lot can't make it let me know asap. Details are in an e-mail that i am about to send. Don't despair those that didn't make it. If this goes well there may be more.

Evo7 is temporarily uncertain of password, but I will happily take his place. Either day is fine for me :)

Check your PMs you lot.. :)

Yeehee! I'm in. I take it the visit is on the 4th October? As I said if anyone needs a lift then PM me.:D

Enjoy, you lucky lot :D

Sorry, yes, its Friday 4th Oct 11am. :) Got something just as good in the pipeline for afterwards, just waiting to hear back from someone important. :)

Paulo, AerBabe, FFF I need your numbers asap. I have also arranged to visit the ops dept' of Astraeus afterwards to see what a skive they are all up at Gatwick ;).

So, does anyone fancy organising one 'up north' for those of us who get nosebleeds at the thought of Luton, let alone Gatwick?

I can't do it myself as I don't 'know' anybody as I'm fairly new to all this.

MAN would be great! LPL, EMA, LBA or even BHX or NCL are other options, and this might take the pressure off places on the next Gatwick one, too.

If only the powers that be realised just what an education and sefety benefit things like this can be!
