Thanks to the PPRUNE community for your replies. I had googled around but the cost was not clear and as I suspected, it's an arm and a leg! Prestwick sounds the best bet, so I will give them a call.

LHR goarounds today (nov 6) 0945, anyone know more?

Saw 4 or 5 A/C go around from their approaches to 27R this AM just before 10am. I think an SAS 737 was the last to land before this happened. Anyone have any more info?

It does have similarities to the BA38 incident. This one had P+W engines. Dont know if the FOHE was a RR part or common to all 777's. Anyway, all are OK which is the main thing.
