skies in Leatherhead

Dear all,

I live in Leatherhead (KT22) and on clear days there are a large number of flights passing overhead at relatively low altitudes, both climbing and descending. I was wondering if there were any maps of this airspace that chart what arrivals / departures are permitted to enter this area. Obviously, we are in a meeting place for flights into / out of LHR and LGW. I am assuming that on westerly departures from LHR there are flights that climb straightahead and pass Leatherhead on the standard SID.

I hope someone can help with this one.

MM

You're close to the Ockham stack for LHR inbounds. Also depending on runway direction in use at LHR and LGW you may see aircraft climbing/descending on SID's/STAR's. NATS AIS Web site has the map details.
