No, that's wrong. I have the opening book and the info from the time. The original runways were to be where the industrial estate is now. No, the rules HAVE changed and they are building it with an entirely different affect noise-wise. This is why residents, many of whom have been in the path for nearly 50 years are annoyed and with good reason.
Because government thinks it can just sell off assets then wash its hands of any consequences and then as we've seen in the media the last few weeks, apply for FOI information and you get 50 blacked out pages.
