The letter sent to residents to confirm the end of BAA's buy-up,
also reveals that BAA is still considering applying for planning
permission for a third runway.

Why don't they just reinstate the third runway that currently exists?


Because its clearances have been infringed by new building. Because
it crosses the two east-west runways (09-27L and 09-27R) and using it
would mean that those two runways would have to be closed.

Next question?
