lhr v lgw
itchin, I am sure some of your arguments have some limited validity and are naturally espoused by those in favour of lhr out of self interest. they are no reasons though to be totally blinkered to the idea
that expansion can only work at lhr. an arrogant view. it seems you would continue to cram a quart into a pint pot just to accomodate a " few hundred thousand" BA customers. by your reasoning france should not have built CDG but added more capacity to orly and le bourget.
PS ditch the silly monniker. it doesnt do your credibility any good.
