The only photos I actually took at LHR were of a BA 747 crossing the road, I was busy collecting regs, he was the one with the photos, so I will get him to pick his best. We drove round the perimeter to see how T5 was getting on, then parked up at Hatton Cross, (bear in mind this was about 5am), walked up to the end of the Concorde runway, near the long stay car park (is that the south runway?), then back to the long stay to get the bus to the terminals, saw some action from the car park next to the radar tower, then went to T2 car park and was thrown out! (even got big signs up there saying ‘no spotting’.) so be warned!

Bus back to long stay, then walked upto the visitors centre (now it was just gone 10am), stayed there a bit, then walked back to long stay and stayed there a while under the arrivals. He struggled with photos there cos of the sun.

Had to head back to Hatton Cross as we were meeting someone that works for BA maintainence, at 3pm they switched runways and so we were sat under the arrivals again, this time the photos were better.

Saw plenty of Virgins, my first Royal Air Moroc, and a Royal Jordanian, and plenty and I mean plenty of police…….they were patrolling in 2s (vehicles that is) and as we were leaving they had pulled a couple of vans over and there were armed officers all over and around the vans.
