Has any spokesperson from the BAA made any comment on TV or radio in the UK?
No. On the PM programme, they reported that BAA would not respond to any requests for interviews.

I know I'm being incredibly naive but a more balanced view from the UK media would be welcomed.
When T5 was being planned, all involved knew the nature of the British media and knew that any mistake would be writ large. The fact that the failures were of Titanic proportions produced a similar response.
In the BBC Radio 4 programme 'PM' today, they quoted BA staff who had to remain anonymous saying: "We told them about the problems during testing and they ignored us." As per my previous post - I am not surprised.
(Cheap shot coming up) At 18:45 the BAA website still says:
Terminal 5"Imagine Bond Street and Knightsbridge under one roof"
Except that they have car parking and you can leave with what you came for ... Seriously, someone in BAA should have told the web master to pull all such own goals as soon as it started to go wrong.
