Flight Path

Anyone know why no easterly landings into Heathrow for the last three weeks? Except for an hour last week. I know all about changing landing and take off rules. This has bee the longest I've know. I'm not knocking it as it's so quite.

High pressure over Scandinavia gives us in the UK an Easterley wind hence theLanding direction from Windsor. Usually any wind over 5 mph from the East will result in Easterly arrivals. Aircraft still have to land into wind for safety considerations.
