The councils priority is making money and not creating well paid jobs. 3 new hangars are shown on expansion plans replacing the Easyjet academy and the other modern buildings south of President Way but that could be years away and might never be built. Gulfstream wanted land now with the obvious place next to the Harrods hangars. The Council said no as that land is meant to be an apron for a second terminal.
