Non-Standard Departures

If an aircraft is unable to accept a SID, coordination with the relevant approach control unit is required and the agreed departure instructions should be passed to the aircraft.

VOR-DME Pronunciation

SFD and LAM are VOR-DME stations and should be pronounced as "Seaford" and "Lambourne" respectively.

Flights to London City

Due to the proximity of London City and its position, coordination with L (London Control) is required prior to issuing a clearance.

Transfer to Ground

Delivery should instruct aircraft to hold position and contact the provided ground control once they report ready.

Split Ground Operations

When GMC is split, aircraft on stands at Pier 1 (1-5), the south side of Pier 2 (10-12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 27, 28), remote stands 140-145 and 230-235, and Maintenance Areas 1-3, shall be transferred to GMC South. All other aircraft shall be transferred to GMC North.

Flow Restrictions

Delivery should hold aircraft on their frequency should taxiway/holding point congestion build or upon request from ground to reduce ground frequency congestion and workload. Flights to London City are to be coordinated prior to issuing a clearance and any delay requested should be absorbed on stand.
