Whats happening at Heathrow?
Just saw a few planes go around and everything's landing 27L at the moment!

Anything?

Ask for an airband scanner for Christmas. They're really good if you want to listen in on the hows and whys of a nearby airfield, and you learn a lot too.

To cut a long story short, there was a CAT A Police Heli operating 2nm out on the 27R approach so it was 27L SRO for a while.
