"Heathrow and Gatwick airports: Ministers mull rail link" (twixt the two)
In message , at 00:18:09 on Sun, 9 Oct
2011, Richard J. remarked: How exactly does a rail link between LHR and LGW increase *air* capacity? The problem at Heathrow is said to be that the runways are 98% fully used. Gatwick is already the world's busiest single-runway airport. So how is this capacity increase achieved? Bigger planes at Gatwick (they see this as a way to increase from roughly 32m to 40m pax a year). And their "single runway agreement" expires in 2019. -- Roland Perry |
