LHR is used by a great swathe of the populous from Norfolk down to
Wales and the west country.
In the area south of Brum and west of LHR there's no LH capable runway
in anything like an airport friendly place. BOH, NQY and CWL (for length)
are the only ones that come to mind with long enough runways. All are geographically as appealing as Boris Island, ie in the back end of nowhere
The Commission is not meant to be partial to any particular geographical area in its terms of reference
If runway(s) are needed why not fill in the void south of Brum and west of LHR
Is the south east to have 5, 6 or 7 LH capable runways and the area described nil?
