Don’t forget that the routing isn’t fixed. The jet SID takes you on runway heading for fifteen miles or so before a turn to the south for another fifteen miles then another turn southeast towards Dean Cross. This would take you pretty much overhead Prestwick but in all likelyhood you would have been turned by my colleagues on the ScACC Galloway sector towards Dean Cross before that. A 05 departure should take you a similar way with a left turn to the west at about 5 DME. Hoiwever, if it is quiet a right turn can be given towards Dean Cross which saves quite a few miles. Used to be the norm, now less so I’m afraid. As for heights, most aircraft will exceed the minimum altitude restrictions by thousands of feet.

In general you are likely to fly over or near to Kilmarnock, Dumfries, Lake Windermere, Preston, Manchester, Birmingham and Luton on a flight to Stansted.
