23 is the runway which crosses the main two right? if so, i saw an AA jet land there about 2 weeks ago.
Ummmm, last time I checked, there was a huge hole in it. Gonze??? (And you agreed with me.......hahahahahhahaha! )

Ice - Your very right. As I see it, Heathrow is it's own worst enemy. Unfortunately it is a pure lack of surrounding space and abilty to physically expand the ground area (with T5, there isn't much more room on that block of land, is there?). If we look at the proposal of the new '3rd runway', the land that is being "reclaimed"is causing the expansion lobby to jump up and down (now, we'll not get into the old NIMBY argument will we!). Poor little airport.
