Default Heathrow to be phased out?

A compromise might be to keep Terminals 4 and 5, and the south Runway,
and build a town to the North. That way all the businesses around
Heathrow would still have an airport, but it only be as big as
Gatwick.


Terminal 4 is difficult to serve by the existing and planned railways, so it
would be better to close that.
