As this a a Rumour network, a few of us were led to believe that a paper written by a navigator on 101 sqn was spotted by a Bean Counter/Treasury and then put forward. Unfortunately the "idiots" refused to accept most arguments against and carried on regardless, obviously common sense ( single runway being the most obvious reason not to pursue this farcical idea ) within many officials mind's when mentioning saving money. Well said originator went far, became Air Attache at Washington in later years!
