I think most of you guys are missing the point here. We all know what an utter shambles Heathrow is and it truly does need pressure taking off it. However a 3rd? runway is not gonna be built to alleviate this but to INCREASE traffic by 50%!
The government, BAA, designers etc are all mad!
Heathrow is voted the worst airport in the world and any expansion plans will only maintain it's top of the list position.
What is needed is diversification. Spread the load and take the pressure off this airport.
Why is it that the UK is
ALWAYS so blinkered when it comes to anything resembling common sense but goes ahead with its own unsupported ideals anyway only to experience the embarrassment of the whole world laughing at its ineptitude later. It's T5 all over again. Will they ever learn?
Heathrow is a national disgrace and no amount of elastoplast on a corpse will bring it back to life!
