A lot of the arguments above that are supposed to be against expansion at LHR are actually arguments for it.
Same can be said for expansion at LGW, all bias and subjective!
Not really, I am talking about comments such as this
So half the airport terminals are OK, the other half T3 and T4 are not so OK. Overall, an OK airport, not really good enough for our supposed UK 'hub'.
As well as other posts about how bad they think LHR is now or was once upon a time.
We should not develop the airport because it needs developing is not really an argument against it. Likewise, the fact BA cancels domestic flights at the first sign of trouble is not a reason
not to build a SH runway and encourage more domestic flights but an argument
for it.
Talking about environmental air pollution is also a bit misleading without comparing against the extra pollution created now from aircraft holding and the general reduction likely to come, as a result of cleaner vehicles and aircraft from mid 2030's when this project would likely be completed.
Projected surface access costs too need to be taken in context with the life of the project and against the existing cost of those improvements that would likely happen even if the new runway didn't go ahead.
