TOO
Landing in the ASDA car park is not an option! It may be walking distance away but......

As to the capacity thing, my late father was convinced that a deal was done many years ago by HMG when Farnborough expanded and opened up to more private flights that they would take all the "private jet" trafffic from Heathrow to allow LHR to increase its capacity for civil aircraft. I recall when a kid that when we used to drive past LHR, on the south side where I believe the cargo centres now is (or maybe it's where T4 is), the biz jets used to be parked up, and operate from there
