Yes of course, but they dont let us little guys anywhere near
Heathrow, let alone over the top of it! I think the clearances
were to climb straight ahead to 3000ft, maintain runway
heading, then contact approach. I would guess the planes
on final were about a minute apart, the closest being on
short final. The first 3 were just told to go around. The 4th
was asked if he could make the other runway. He said no,
so was told to go around. Dont think Id have liked to be
anywhere below 4000 feet there at the time!
