3rd rwy
teevee you appear not to be aware that the 3rd rwy is to cater for an increase in movements of 280000 each year ie 140000 arrivals and 140000 departures so of course you are right, the status quo will be maintained. also there WILL be clamour for a 4th rwy at lhr despite what Sir Howard says and it too will be accompanied by another increase in aircraft movements and so it goes on....
