"Heathrow and Gatwick airports: Ministers mull rail link" (twixtthe two)
New ways of connecting airports, such as a high-speed rail link
between Heathrow and Gatwick, are to be considered in the coming
months as the government reviews its aviation policy.
A 180mph (288km/h) train service between the two locations has been
proposed, The Times reported.
Makes sense, the Tories (sorry coalition's) secret agenda is to turn
Birmingham Airport into another London Airport, using HS2 as the
mechanism, presumably the new link would plug into HS2.
The runway extension at Birmingham to accommodate the largest jets
(fully laden) has already begun.
