The 2006 Annual Monitoring Report, the latest currently available, shows that there were close to 58,000 departing aircraft in 2006. At "£2 per plane that takes off", that amounts to £116,000 in 2006.
I know, and you know, that this is nowhere near the true figure - so I was just pointing out that Tim Jeans (if correctly quoted) seems to have got his figures in a twist.
