I'll repeat myself, why would a 3rd runway be needed while there was a
flight cap in place?


and it what legally binding agreement is a flight cap imposed?


The T5 planning inquiry, the flight cap was a condition of building it,
that condition was accepted by the Transport Minister.

It was a condition which of course is just that a condition which is not
legally binding. As you have found out what one Transport Minister can
