> If you're building a new airport in the middle of nowhere because of noise problems why would you keep the old one open?. Then the people under the flight path would keep the noise AND pay for the new airport. If it's OK to keep LHR open running a city type operation then it's OK to build a third runway running a city type operation.

Exactly.

Of course cities like London, Paris, even Milan, can support more than one airport, but they can't sustain more than one HUB airport.

If all the hub-and-spoke traffic were compelled to move to a Thames Estuary airport, there is no way that keeping Heathrow open for point-to-point traffic (essentially another Gatwick) would make economic sense.
