Good idea, suggested the name "British Minoan" in an earlier post, it's similar thinking!

Direct to heathrow abd perhaps make some smaller airports eg huy or randomly for example dtv or even syy a quick link into heathrow. No slots affected. Make the rubway bigger adx ils nexpand the apron. Might sound pie in the sky but the direct and properly timed no stop service tk heathrow could make a great feeder inti lhr . No impact on slots n free up the slots by transfering the rely smaller stuff from lhr there.
Final thing what is the smallest schedueld ac to fly into lhr ?. Any props ? Dont flame for this pls just a genuine interest In it n enjoy thr discussions here

Hmmm, interesting idea, sounds a little like the "Northolt as third runway" idea, that appears to have died a death now.

Four parallel rwys at Heathrow is a much better idea!

Would this be a stopgap until 2 more rwys are built at Heathrow? If it is to be instead of 2 more rwys at Heathrow, forget it!
