Glasgow Airport Flight path

1. Can any of you guys tell me if the flightpath to any of the runways at GLA would take aircraft over Newton Mearns?

2. Also I seen a video a pilot made on here about a month ago that aircraft of American Operator Southwest had like dancing landing lights does any operators flying into GLA have this same modification done to them?

Thanks

A few go over Newton Mearns but not many, mainly EI from DUB and EZY’s that seem to fly over.

Thanks mate

Looked at that website and i’m no good at reading those charts so would that be a yes or a no to does the flightpath to any of the runways at GLA take aircraft over Newton Mearns?

Go to the NATS AIS website at www.ais.org.uk (you need to register, but it is free). Once you are registered click through the following links : Publications/UKAIP/The UK AIP Package/UKAIP/UKAIP/Aerodrome Data/Aerodromes Specific/Glasgow and all the CAA GLA charts are there. Arrivals are STARs, departures are SIDs.
In practise, on arrival, once past LANAK (126 Radial from the GOW at 20 DME) or even MARGO if things are quiet, you are radar vectored direct to the runway in use…..and one advantage of flying at 0200 is you tend to be cleared direct to an 8 mile final from the point you enter UK airspace!
