Stansted? Is Brown deliberately insulting him?
When GWB visited last year, Heathrow was disrupted for most of the day. So they decided to land Obama at Stansted instead.Edited by john_p on Tuesday 31st March 10:27
What's the bet Obama's landing at Heathrow in something more discreet?... either that or they were just taking the empty limo and entourage back to Mildenhall to stick in a Cargo plane

Obama is taking a helicopter from Stansted to Regents Park - but the rest are travelling in convoy.
Down the M11 - M25 - M1 i would think ?
or M11 - A13 - but would think that's a bit more open to problems
He will be on Marine one, which is also flown in, I believe in the back of a C5. (not Citreon)Down the M11 - M25 - M1 i would think ?

At Least 3 other Marine helicopters in formation/diversion/decoy.
These arrived Monday!
Years ago a Pan Am 747 mistook Northolt's main runway for the old runway 23 at Heathrow. It was in effect stuck at Northolt. They had to strip all the interior from the plane just to get it's take-off weight low enough to enable it to get out of Northolt.
After that the two gas towers had LH<---- and ---->NH painted on them as a helpful visual clue.

All this security is crazy, if someone really wanted to, they could just shoot him out of the sky using a decent home made SAM of some kind.
It'd probably crash over some densely populated area too no doubt.
(I REALLY hope this doesn't happen, I don't want frogmen in my U-bend)
That's not an ordinary 747 - it has military grade countermeasures on it. Although it's still a damn good target!It'd probably crash over some densely populated area too no doubt.
