Now I've sometimes wondered, in idle moments, if we are going to rebuild all the Heathrow terminals, how much extra effort will it be to build new runways north-south as well, adequately separated for parallel operations standards, and avoiding any air traffic movements over London, which seems the nub of the argument. They do fit between the M4 and ther A30 !
