You're pretty much on the money there. Thankfully there are enough runways available to mitigate strong westerlies etc.

Although I'd take a bumpy landing over the long taxi back from 18R any day.

Problem these last few days have been Dusseldorf arrivals from the west, clipping along at close to 600 knots groundspeed, have to start them down almost at the English coast
