The major area in which the Government and Boris might
lock horns will be the expansion of Heathrow.


Irrespective of who is for and against it - what's the chances of a
third runway opening before oil is $400 a barrel?

Incidentally, one of the new items in the USA at the moment is airlines
"flying slower" in order to save fuel. One unexpected consequence of
that is the need to make airports more efficient in order to turn the
planes round quicker to make up time.
