I think not

No new airport will be built in the UK. Too expensive, no room, we will soon need every available bit of land to grow food, and what will the aircraft be powered by in say 2020? not Jet A1, as oil production will have peaked. Combined Airships/Aircraft may be ready by then, and will not need runways.
