Sorry, but Brunel would not have been seen dead overseeing the plans of a third runway - he would have been down in East London designing the Silver-Boris airport.
Too right. But that is why you are welcome to keep Isambard in your fantasy team for your fantasy airport - he was an amazing engineer, but not the best of cost accountants, and you can be sure 'elf and safety would want a few words with him!

Now when I am dissing IKB just to disagree with Silver, we know this thread really is well past its sell by date

And Silver giving US grammar lessons. Come on!
