This would have been in 1980, all arguments would all be forgotten by
now and London's airport provision would be in a better place than it
is now
SSE is sill going strong, as are the campaigns against a second runway
at Gtwick and a third at Heathrow.
The airspace in the SE is already some of the most congested in the world.
When was the last there was a blue sky over london on a clear day? We don't
need or want any more air traffic. Too bad if people can't take a flight with
24 hours notice. Instant gratification is something children expect, not
adults.
The vapour trails you see are from high flying aircraft, nothing to do
with London airports. Many of the air routes from Europe to North
America are visible from London.
I know, but its all still controlled by NATS. From watching the Skies Over
Britain programme on the BBC recently its obvious they're already close to
their limit. I can't so how even more aircraft will help. And thats before
we get onto people - like me - who live under airport flightpaths who are
sick of the constant drone of airliners overhead. Though the low flying
choppers are even worse but they're much less frequent.
