This "steeper glideslope" nonsense won't make a jot of difference to those living anywhere near the LHR approach path. A poor attempt at a "sweetener" from those intent on building a third runway at Heathrow despite the objections from Londoners.
I moved to the East End of London in 2012 partly to try and escape the constant aircraft noise above our old house in Fulham (midway between 27L and 27R). Now it's just as bad in Walthamstow since they changed the approach paths. I have aircraft from both the BNN and LAM stacks being routed directly over our borough.
I love flying and I love aeroplanes but this third runway idea is ludicrous.
Today I joined HACAN. How ironic.
