Visado de tránsito para el Reino Unido

Soy ciudadano de Pakistán y tengo pasaporte ordinario. Tengo un visado B-1/B-2 para EE.UU. y quiero volar de San Francisco a Sofía, Bulgaria (pronto obtendré un visado Schengen). Casi todos los vuelos que he encontrado tienen una escala en Londres Heathrow. ¿Necesito un visado de tránsito?

P.D. He leído otros hilos aquí y también he comprobado el sitio web . Sin embargo, todavía no estoy seguro de si necesito un visado, ya que no estoy seguro de si pasaré por el control de fronteras del Reino Unido. Después de pasar por las dos posibilidades, dice que sí necesito un visado, pero también enumera una serie de condiciones que, si se cumplen, permiten transitar sin visado. No estoy seguro de si las cumplo todas.

Además, este enlace (para los titulares de pasaportes sudafricanos) dice que "los pasajeros que transitan hacia cualquiera de los 25 países Schengen y que son titulares de un visado Schengen de categoría C deben obtener igualmente un visado para el Reino Unido", por lo que me pregunto si todavía podría necesitar un visado de tránsito.

No es necesario un visado para una "escala" en Londres Heathrow. [Una "escala" en un contexto internacional dura más de veinticuatro horas]. Ciertamente, puede hacer un tránsito aéreo, y según recuerdo, el horario de los vuelos de SFO a SOF en LHR le dará tiempo para hacerlo.

Si ha entrado en EE.UU. en los últimos seis meses con el visado en cuestión, también puede hacer un tránsito por tierra (es necesario para un cambio de aeropuerto o una pernoctación).
