Battersea procedures

As i dont visit Battersea much there are times when an element of confusion occurs with regard to the marshalling signals.

I think the common error for us low time guys going in to Battersea is flying to the marshaller . However I am still confused about making turns do we do turns on the spot or more of a sweeping moving turn?? as I have had mixed reports

Battersea is so tight, and often with parked hels on the spots that you should always aim to do spot turns, making sure that the area where your tail is going into is clear. The marshallers are very professional and slick, so try and do what they indicate.
Its a great place to operate in and out of, so enjoy.
