R 158 = North of the river to 1400ft
R157 = West to hyde park to 1400ft
R159 = East over Isle if dogs to 1400ft
Currently a filming NOTAM to 2100ft but its a request.
So if they clear you in the class D CTR at say 1500 to 2500ft??
Can you or cant you??
Asking for a friend...
They don’t clear 1500ft-2500ft VFR in that corner probably due to Heathrow? between Canary Wharf and Vauxhall Bridge it’s likely max 1400ft VFR (keep away laterally from Shard
), east of Canary Wharf you get max 2kft if Heathrow are on 27, maybe less if they are on 09, I doubt one can go west of Vauxhall Bridge unless following Thames river at 500ft agl?
If they clear you it’s up to you to take it, if you are IFR in IMC in SEP to Biggin via North-West on vectors or directs and you can’t see the ground, I suggest you take it
, if you are VFR on own navigation with “London in-sight” you friend will find it hard to debate
