please could you tell me the forthcoming flight schedule for and up to the 2012 olympics . thankyou
Glenn, as much as I and all spotters would love to see a schedule for VIP/bizjet/interesting movements for the London Olympics, I doubt we will find out until these aircraft are on the ground! Security will be tighter than we’ve known it for some years, whether the ATC controllers amongst the spotter would be able to publish details, only time will tell. But I’m sure if they can they will.
If not……we’re gonna have a lot of run circling the M25 for 2 days!!!!
