Many thnaks for the reply. I am not the nimby. I did query many years ago with HAL that no space was available at 09L hold, but they went ahead anyway. One assumes the fuel burn from T4 is not in the equation. My simple idea would be to run light weight departures = shorter & less noise footprint, and keep heavies on 09R with a mix of landings. The nimbies in the new scheme under 09R will get more arrivals - hence the nimby division between 09L all day arrivals and 09R fewer
