We have passed through the UK via London Gatwick and Manchester (Manchester arrival video will follow when we have a bandwidth gap to upload). We arrived 40 minutes late at Manchester and incurred further delays as one of the crew members rostered for the trip to copenhagen (Hoppie !) slept through all his alarms despite his Captains (Malc) best efforts to raise him.
Once underway we enjoyed excellent ATC from Worldflight control who pulled out all the stops to help us maximise a 99knot tail wind at mach 0.89, then best speed descent, cancelled speed restriction under FL100, superb vectoring in place of cancelled terminal arrival procedure and all of this meant we were just 10 minutes late onto the stand at Copenhagen.
Thanks to all the guys at Worldflight ATC HQ we have now lost count (Malc has anyway) of how many times you have helped out this week. We really are "inbound" now as we start the long trip south east back to Sydney......
