Is APD worth around £2.5 billion a year to the UK? If so, channel all that into the new airport fund along with all the new ETS revenue from aviation, all the fuel duty, tax, all the UK visa revenue, and you could build it in the next decade - all paid for by the aviation industry directly - everybody's happy!
