Rather nice, isn't it! Enjoy it whilst you can.


If you don't like it, don't buy a house under the flight path. It's
that simple.

Yes, I'll cheerfully accept there might still be the odd resident who
hasn't moved since Heathrow opened. 64 years ago. (Did you know

Yes, but never more than two in use at any one time, just like today
(well, OK, not today!). You can just about make out the outlines of the
four closed (and partly built-over) runways from modern aerial views.
