Also the disruption to west London will be so bad that most adult residents who are currently alive will never see a net benefit

Should we invest in something only if we can personally benefit from it? No wonder nothing gets done in this country. OAPs blocking everything everywhere.

I’m also not sure what disruption is supposedly going to impact people in West London unless it’s referring to those already in the doorstep of the airport rather than residents of Kensington, Hammersmith or Chiswick.

The previously proposed position of the 3rd runway would create two new flightpaths and put a lot of people directly under a low noisy route – people who suffer much less disruption now.

The Heathrow Hub / Extend the Runway plan would not put any new homes under a flightpath and reduce noise in West London, especially late night/early morning. Also much less would get demolished outside the airport perimeter.
