Intriguing why they are using outdated plans and aerial images that don’t show the newly built terminal extension. Think the outline plans for a south pier extension have been around for a while but don’t see that happening any time soon. I thought a extra pier on the new extension towards the old runway was more likely if at all. Not much insensitive to expand if no foreseen growth in passengers or flights. Much talked about increased capacity for NAM flights with WB aircraft so far has not materialised for example.

Disappointing that they designers are actively avoiding a duel carriageway, but then again this might clever move to help get it through planning as it would potentially meet less resistance.
