Thanks for the background Jarvy, I didn't make any assumptions about you - other than that you might not be familair with the new T3 car park. This thread is commenting on several items about LHR, my 2 cents was just the car park. It is generally understood that LHR is a mess that the politicians dare not touch (over the past 30 years) and there is little that ANY owner can do to rectify it, other than level it.
I am looking forward to seeing the new T2 - because they are building it from scratch and (within confines of space) will be able to do anything in three dimensions. The brand new, built from scratch T4 opened in 1986 and not many people liked it. The brand new, built from scratch T5 opened in 2008 and it had (has?) problems. So I'm not expecting much from the new T2!
