It won't happen - in any of our lifetimes. There needs to be a hub airport - in other words for BI to make any sense it would have to replace Heathrow. The cost of the project and the infrastructure to support it is stratospheric - nevermind the planning issues (cw the fast train to Birmingham) The only point to the discussion exercise is to demonstrate how Heathrow MUST expand or London will lose its role as a major hub for international flights. The document has laughable paragraphs about concern for air quality and climate change. |
