Carlos Palo 969743 Posted May 31, 2007 at 01:34 AM Posted May 31, 2007 at 01:34 AM Today I was flying to EGLL when I wondered what the prefered runways are. I couldn't find any info about runway preference in the charts for Heathrow. I once heard of the 'week-rule' where in even weeks runway 09R/27L are in use and the odd weeks 09L/27R. Is this correct or is there always the same preference for runway usage?

Martin Leat 860888 Posted May 31, 2007 at 04:11 AM Posted May 31, 2007 at 04:11 AM When landing on the 27's we do switch on a weekly basis. For info on that see here http://www.vatsim-uk.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8053&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=. When landing on the 09's we always land 09L and depart 09R. Hope that helps Martin Leat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
