November 11, 20178 yr I am preparing for a flight from EGKK London Gatwick to EGPF Glasgow in the PMDG 737-600 NGX. I have been looking at the SIDs for a runway 26L departure, and it seems that the best departure north is to use the TIGER 1X SID. However, this involves turning south and east after take off, and then turning north to the Lambourne VOR. Is this the best option? I had assumed that there would be a departure that involved turning directly north after take off, but maybe this would conflict with Heathrow airspace? Is that correct?

November 11, 20178 yr I think Tiger is an ATC tactical SID used to alleviate congestion. LAM is normal for northerlies. Rob Jones.
November 11, 20178 yr Author So is there another (more direct) route to LAM if congestion is not an issue? EDIT: I have just noticed LAM 2X that includes a right turn after take off, and then east to KKE35, before turning north to LAM. I can use that one another day, since I already have the TIGER 1X SID programmed into the FMC for this flight Christopher Low AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU / 64GB DDR5-6000 RAM / 12GB Nvidia RTX 4070 Super GPU / Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite Wifi 7 / 1+2TB Samsung Evo Plus M2 Nvme UK2000 Beta Tester
