This is just a short update

The image shown above are the exact routes I would make my father take to follow the Great Western Main Line and flight paths into Heathrow.

This is just a quick update, but as a child I also was fascinated by the shapes of electricity pylons and I created as a young adult, a "death gauge" to predict exactly which order my grandparents were going to die in based on age, health, infirmity and independence (which failed of course)!

I was also a regular user of WikiAnswers (now largely defunct due to Google's AI Overview) and used the pseudonym "Diamond Christmas" reaching Silver contributor status and would answer questions about calendars, scales/key signatures and later questions about civil/nautical/astronomical twilight which was a strong interest I had in my early twenties.

A bit of trivia for you - when I had my flight path obsession, I used to notice that the specific flight path taken by  BA flights from London to Aberdeen (northbound) used to alternate between weekdays and weekends. During the week the flight path would fly from London to Edinburgh as the crow flies (passing over Leeds and the Pennines before turning right towards Aberdeen), whereas during the weekend the flight path would be from A to B pretty much as the crow flies following the A1 motorway over York and Newcastle before heading over the North Sea. The southbound flight path pretty much remains unaltered heading towards Scotland's central belt then over the Lake District and North Wales/Manchester before descending into Heathrow (pretty much following flight paths from other UK destinations to Heathrow).

Another route I would make my father take on London-Liverpool car trips was instructing my father to come off the M40 at J6 (Stokenchurch) then down towards Watlington, Wallingford and Goring before joining the M4 at J12 near Theale to match the Heathrow approach paths during Easterly Operations at Heathrow.

This update is unrelated to any signature milestones, but is merely on the petition page to educate the neurotypical public about autism and how it affects the daily lives of neurodivergent individuals (which is the tertiary aim of the petition).
