"They" being a spanish company that mismanages the airport at every opportunity. Reducing service quality. Cutting costs everywhere reducing security. They need the third runway to fly people in to the largest shopping mall in europe. Terminal 5
Do you know how much money it cost to do such a project. People like you just complain and dont think about the bigger picture. If you are so amazing why dont you open you own airport and see what the best you could do. Serious bore off
You lot need to live under the new flight path. You may have a different view. There has been no proof I've seen of the economic benefits, and I've been to all the consultations. The wording of questionnaires was deplorable, leaving you with 2 answers with the effect of 'what colour grey would you like?' answer? Very Light or Light. Towns like the one I live in now have never been consulted, yet will feel the effects horrendously. We have a good reason to complain. Our lives will be miserable after this.
Not true actually. Airplanes are developing all the time. Also the landings are adjusted, so the airplanes will fly higher for longer and create less noise.
The thrid runway is further away from the living areas. It also helps to regulate the landing times. Right now, an airplane is landing to heathrow every thirty seconds. With the third runway the number will be reduced. The third runway will be lomger than the old ones, making possible for bigger airplanes to land at Heathrow.
This discussion about the 3rd runway should have been finished with years ago. Still here we are! For all the money cost talking about it we could’ve built the thing by now!
If it ended years ago, Heathrow would’ve either died down or an entire village would have been destroyed, it’s a good thing they’re rly thinking abt this
SomeDawidGuy Heathrow (like many airports have done) payed the owners of those houses 300% more than they are worth so they can go find somewhere else to live and it won’t be hard for them. It’s a good deal really.
I would agree but the flight paths make it SO loud for many people living near the airport. I know that the planes don’t have a choice but I live directly in between two flight paths I could imagine trying to sleep when there constantly passing overhead every 40 seconds. If anything I think they should build like 4 or 5 runway airport on Borris island then build a fast transport link from central London. Borris island has tones of empty land so it wouldn’t disturb anyone.
Heathrow is the only airport we have that's actually in London (except City). In an ideal world it would be 24 hours and have 4 runways, this is the best we can do
@@mhfitness8029 How much would cost planning and building a new airport and upgrading local infrastructure to cope with new demand. You also need to connect the new "megaairport" to London via tube or railway. This would add more expenditure.

Most residents have lived in the area all their lives. Parents and grandparents lived here. Some move to the area because of work (not at airport). For many, it’s affordability. And how many can afford to be in London, near a place they work, but cannot afford to move out of the area. It’s not just about the money. Where to move to? How old are the people? Where do the work? Do they have children? There’s a lot more to it than selling your house for thrice the price. Great if you are single or a young couple. Maybe not so much if circumstances are different.

Whilst I acknowledge that the expansion would overtime benefit the U.K. and reduce the number of delayed flights (personal experience), it’s easy to think about the greater good, if you are not directly impacted. How we are to become carbon neutral by 2050, I don’t know. Heathrow should buy out or just evict onto the streets, everyone and everything within a 10-15km radius, and make all this surrounding area a green zone. That would stop any future complaints, right? Edit: I’d love to the see how nice it would be to enjoy a green space near the airport, with low flying aircraft constantly overhead. Lovely picnic lol

They are doing the most to facilitate this expansion to be as smooth and advantageous for the locals and the wider region as a whole. This is essentially free regeneration as far as I see it.
I strongly disagree. Firstly this is an area that is full and teeming with well built residential areas,farmland and regenerated moorland already. It is not a barren unlived in area What they wont talk about is that the area they plan on demolishing used to be a waste heap. It was so poisonious they actually have generators that reduce the toxicity of the earth there (this is harmondsworth moor im talking about) currently north of the airport on the left of the picture. This area was built as a result of collaboration between the council and the business park involved with the airport and is a perfect example of how to correctly regenerate an area. But we dont have councillors looking after us any more so this proposed "regeneration" looks far more aggeesive in comparison. Additionally the north side of the airport is home to HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people in west drayton hayes stockley uxbridge cowley and denham sipson and harmondsworth. These areas already suffer from high pollution being sandwiched in between the M25 and the M4 i live on the coast but when i visit my parents there within 3 days im coughing out black stuff from the pollution. Currently the north side does not experience noise pollution from the airport just from the motorways. I hope this wont ruin our environment there. Also the areas they plan on destroying include communities that existed BEFORE the airport was built. Some listed buildings are more than 800 years old but will be destroyed like the famous barn in harmondsworth. Many of my family members have worked in around and for the airport at times. Its the reason they moved to live there to work to help improve our communities. Their commitment is klnow rewardes with a runway less than 800 metres from their house. Heathrow can talk about the neccessity of expansion but they already have one of the largest and highest capacity airports in the world. This expansion is for rich bussiness and economic reasons not for the land or the people. Im not against industrial progress but i dont want to see our homes ruined. ER help us pls
Alex Rogers . It looks like you’re very passionate about this subject so copy it over to the consultation since sending it here won’t really help. Either way you haven’t convinced me. I just can’t justify not doing this project since it’s so important for the nation. Honestly if I lived in the area I would be exhilarated at the free regeneration and growth this would bring and of course the compensation money too. I hate to sound like a commie but at this point we all have to do something for the common good of the nation. To compete globally it’s the only way!
@@R3adybreck Its not like any of the infrastructure you mention is new? Heathrow has been there for over 60 years and the motorways have been there for coming on for 50. People move there knowing that there is an airport there and have known for years there have been plans to expand it. The flight paths for the new runway mirror that of the existing runways so the planes will be less than 1000m further north than they currently already fly.
Its definitely worth it, in terms of how much the extra runway will bring in to the economy, especially after Brexit. So I think it's fine for the to pay a premium for the houses and land so the people in them villages and towns can relocate with money to spare.
@@dknowles60 They probably would have done that, but there's commuting issues and distance issues. Everybody's favourite Jay Foreman did a video which basically explained there's no good solution... and this was 5 years ago! ua-cam.com/video/KXmpdJO9UOc/v-deo.html
The T5 extension will displace wildlife habitats going back hundreds of years. Small wooded areas and not forgetting the river that runs through, with natural river beds. I'm pro expansion but being somebody who walks this area weekly, it will have a massive impact on the wildlife ecosystem there. When and if work starts, wildlife will be stuck between groundwork with the T5 Extension and the M25 with nowhere to go. Have you considered this? What plans do you have in place for ensuring current wildlife is moved to other areas? I'm a huge aviation fan but the T5 Extension I'm afraid cuts way too deep into the green area and will also impact traffic flow in local villages, Wraysbury, Datchet, Poyle and Colnbrook.
Building a runway is a lot of effort. Manchester is a two-runway airport which currently handles 35% the passenger capacity of LHR. Would it not be cheaper/more efficient to add better infrastructure to MAN? With HS2 completed in the 2030s, it will effectively serve London too.
I love ❤️ 🇬🇧 UK it makes perfect sense for them to keep improving their airports and infrastructure so, they can compete with other world class airports and the countries around the globe 🌏.
@@ronclark9724 Or we can do both. Expand Heathrow and the other airports together. If residents are worried you should move home. You don't have any rights when National Security and Infrastructure is at stake.
You dont "need" to expand. Expanding will literally cause chose for London. London is runny at 100 percent capacity mainly because of the amount of tourists Heathrow brings in. Expanding Heathrow will just make it worse.
No one check the difference between "effected" and "affected" before publishing this? Simple English would be nice if you're expected to build an airport
What I rekon is, you should build a new airport, with a circular runway, connect with existing airports with a combination of Hyperloop and solar frikin roadways. Job done! I'll expect my cheque by the end of the month. Cheers
Circular runway.. And you expect that to work how exactly? Planes going around and around in circles? They would hit each other. Planes come into land at around 150-200MPH.. How are you going to expect them to be able to turn in a circle WHILST going that speed? Or how would they take off while going in a circle as turning would cause the speed to lower? Physics doesn't work like that my friend. That's like having a roundabout and trying to land a plane on it, it won't work, especially with several planes on it at several different speeds that would just be a crash fest waiting to happen...
@@charliemccameron4812 I hope your not doubting my qualification to suggest a circular runway. I have watched most of a UA-cam video that explains just what an amazing idea this is and how it will solve many problems that the author said exist. It's on the internet, so it can't be a bad idea.
You need to have £110,000 in pocket to train fully to become a first officer. If you're in that financial situation then go for it and I wish you luck!
We aim to do this, we aim to do that. That's like the opposite of giving guarantees. I've aimed to drink less alcohol. I still get pissed every night, but at least I have stated my intention.
If the runway was built there would actually be a smaller environmental impact than if they did not build it; planes release the most emissions when taxiing on the ground, so faster takeoffs means the less emissions there would be
They're giving so many new spaces for the public to gain support. Once the runway (the only thing they really care about) is in place, the other projects will magically be delayed into oblivion.
@@serrianarchipelago7582 France is discussing a ban on local flights as they are 40x more emitting than train and if your point is about transcontinental flights, I would agree if people were flying for important reasons which is rarely the case...
FR tho Newark is one of the most poorly designed airports in the US, and it either needs to be HEAVILY revamped or just discarded entirely. If Newark were to have a decent expansion plan it would actually bring substantial benefits to the airport and its travelers.
I'm enthusiastic but not an expert. It looks like the new facilities wont be enough after 5 or 10 years. I hope the 4th runway is being planned as we speak.

It is not a barren unlived in area What they wont talk about is that the area they plan on demolishing used to be a waste heap. It was so poisonious they actually have generators that reduce the toxicity of the earth there (this is harmondsworth moor im talking about) currently north of the airport on the left of the picture. This area was built as a result of collaboration between the council and the business park involved with the airport and is a perfect example of how to correctly regenerate an area. But we dont have councillors looking after us any more so this proposed "regeneration" looks far more aggeesive in comparison. Additionally the north side of the airport is home to HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people in west drayton hayes stockley uxbridge cowley and denham sipson and harmondsworth. These areas already suffer from high pollution being sandwiched in between the M25 and the M4 i live on the coast but when i visit my parents there within 3 days im coughing out black stuff from the pollution. Currently the north side does not experience noise pollution from the airport just from the motorways. I hope this wont ruin our environment there. Also the areas they plan on destroying include communities that existed BEFORE the airport was built. Some listed buildings are more than 800 years old but will be destroyed like the famous barn in harmondsworth. Many of my family members have worked in around and for the airport at times. Its the reason they moved to live there to work to help improve our communities. Their commitment is klnow rewardes with a runway less than 800 metres from their house. Heathrow can talk about the neccessity of expansion but they already have one of the largest and highest capacity airports in the world. This expansion is for rich bussiness and economic reasons not for the land or the people. Im not against industrial progress but i dont want to see our homes ruined. ER help us pls
Alex Rogers . It looks like you’re very passionate about this subject so copy it over to the consultation since sending it here won’t really help. Either way you haven’t convinced me. I just can’t justify not doing this project since it’s so important for the nation. Honestly if I lived in the area I would be exhilarated at the free regeneration and growth this would bring and of course the compensation money too. I hate to sound like a commie but at this point we all have to do something for the common good of the nation. To compete globally it’s the only way!
@@R3adybreck Its not like any of the infrastructure you mention is new? Heathrow has been there for over 60 years and the motorways have been there for coming on for 50. People move there knowing that there is an airport there and have known for years there have been plans to expand it. The flight paths for the new runway mirror that of the existing runways so the planes will be less than 1000m further north than they currently already fly.
Its definitely worth it, in terms of how much the extra runway will bring in to the economy, especially after Brexit. So I think it's fine for the to pay a premium for the houses and land so the people in them villages and towns can relocate with money to spare.
Brilliant ideas. People saying otherwise clearly don't want an economy of which we can all enjoy!
That's all very well, but what happens in 20 or so years when they need a 4th runway.
probably just send the planes to gatwick
@@orchadia2410 they should do that now
@@dknowles60 They probably would have done that, but there's commuting issues and distance issues. Everybody's favourite Jay Foreman did a video which basically explained there's no good solution... and this was 5 years ago! ua-cam.com/video/KXmpdJO9UOc/v-deo.html
Make more use of the 5 airports of London and expand them as well
By that time London will be flooded if you believe in the climate change nonsense...
You have our full support.
This expansion is long overdue!

The T5 extension will displace wildlife habitats going back hundreds of years. Small wooded areas and not forgetting the river that runs through, with natural river beds. I'm pro expansion but being somebody who walks this area weekly, it will have a massive impact on the wildlife ecosystem there. When and if work starts, wildlife will be stuck between groundwork with the T5 Extension and the M25 with nowhere to go. Have you considered this? What plans do you have in place for ensuring current wildlife is moved to other areas? I'm a huge aviation fan but the T5 Extension I'm afraid cuts way too deep into the green area and will also impact traffic flow in local villages, Wraysbury, Datchet, Poyle and Colnbrook.
Building a runway is a lot of effort. Manchester is a two-runway airport which currently handles 35% the passenger capacity of LHR. Would it not be cheaper/more efficient to add better infrastructure to MAN? With HS2 completed in the 2030s, it will effectively serve London too.
Always thought this. Rather than expand lhr why not move more traffic north 🤷♀️
Or Gatwick 🤷♂️
we were the first, and now we're the worst
-the goat, jay foreman
Please do it Heathrow I love you guys so much I know you guys can do it so let’s start building. ❤🎉😊
I love ❤️ 🇬🇧 UK it makes perfect sense for them to keep improving their airports and infrastructure so, they can compete with other world class airports and the countries around the globe 🌏.
They can also build a brand new large airport outside the urban area and not have as many residents impacted by enlarging Heathrow...
@@ronclark9724 Or we can do both. Expand Heathrow and the other airports together.
If residents are worried you should move home. You don't have any rights when National Security and Infrastructure is at stake.
@@kadsc3049 pffftt don't be stupid, your property and human rights number 1
What is the point of making Heathrow a cargo airport? Wouldn't that be just as good in Luton or Gatwick?
We will work with our neighbours: they watch, we demolish
A fourth runway will been more beneficial to the neighborhoods of Heathrow.
What neighbourhoods? They’re gonna get demolished

@@davidzweiban5549 yes

I hope you get to build it, we should all look to the future! Bravo 👍
You dont "need" to expand. Expanding will literally cause chose for London. London is runny at 100 percent capacity mainly because of the amount of tourists Heathrow brings in. Expanding Heathrow will just make it worse.
@Conor Malone did you read my full comment?
@Conor Malone yes it's running at max but London itself is also running at max. Expanding will make it worse.
No one check the difference between "effected" and "affected" before publishing this? Simple English would be nice if you're expected to build an airport
How will you get Boris out of the bulldozers’ way???
Love how they completely brush over the demolition of two villages in oursuit of more profits and vanity
What I rekon is, you should build a new airport, with a circular runway, connect with existing airports with a combination of Hyperloop and solar frikin roadways. Job done! I'll expect my cheque by the end of the month. Cheers
Circular runway.. And you expect that to work how exactly? Planes going around and around in circles? They would hit each other. Planes come into land at around 150-200MPH.. How are you going to expect them to be able to turn in a circle WHILST going that speed? Or how would they take off while going in a circle as turning would cause the speed to lower? Physics doesn't work like that my friend. That's like having a roundabout and trying to land a plane on it, it won't work, especially with several planes on it at several different speeds that would just be a crash fest waiting to happen...
@@charliemccameron4812 I hope your not doubting my qualification to suggest a circular runway. I have watched most of a UA-cam video that explains just what an amazing idea this is and how it will solve many problems that the author said exist. It's on the internet, so it can't be a bad idea.
we need to get this sorted out again post covid
We want to be a good neighboor.

It's not their fault plus they are getting paid off more than what their house is actually worth
I TOTALLY WILL LOVE TO SEE THE THIRD RUNAWAY
Keyword: "Preferred" versus "approved." Let's hope this finally gets done.
Its about time Heathrow expand. Britain's place on the world is aviation
Notice how the "green spaces" are spaced to prevent residential expansion, so to enable a future development after this one!💁🏼♂️
Isn't that good so even more houses don't have to be knocked down in the future?
That tunnel reminds me of the GTA 5 jet base. Can't wait to jump the fence!
Do you employ pilots with no experience? I need a job.
Pilots with no experience? Yes. They are called women. It's diversity hiring and airlines love it.
You need to have £110,000 in pocket to train fully to become a first officer. If you're in that financial situation then go for it and I wish you luck!
@@willcottam5725Money isn't the issue, it's my claustrophobia.
We aim to do this, we aim to do that.
That's like the opposite of giving guarantees. I've aimed to drink less alcohol. I still get pissed every night, but at least I have stated my intention.
If the runway was built there would actually be a smaller environmental impact than if they did not build it; planes release the most emissions when taxiing on the ground, so faster takeoffs means the less emissions there would be
That's hilarious 😆
Effected or affected? 🤔
affected, and this from an American
So glad to see this taking off.
They're giving so many new spaces for the public to gain support. Once the runway (the only thing they really care about) is in place, the other projects will magically be delayed into oblivion.
Sounds like a plan! What about avgeeks? Are we going to have some top notch spotting locations, similar to what Manchester airport has done?
Probably not because Heathrow Airport Ltd doesn't make any money out of avgeeks, that's why there are no landside facilities now
Yay, more planes is exactly what the climate needs right now!
Emmanuel ROQUETTE planes are the most efficient of all the travel systems we have now, and probably decrease global pollution respectively so
@@serrianarchipelago7582 France is discussing a ban on local flights as they are 40x more emitting than train and if your point is about transcontinental flights, I would agree if people were flying for important reasons which is rarely the case...

Fantastic Heathrow Expansion Master Plan Future Airport
Hey Newark Airport, take notes... Use Heathrow and the RPAs plan as a guide... PLEASE
FR tho Newark is one of the most poorly designed airports in the US, and it either needs to be HEAVILY revamped or just discarded entirely. If Newark were to have a decent expansion plan it would actually bring substantial benefits to the airport and its travelers.
@@bigballer8473 I had the misfortune to fly into Newark on one trip.
@@bigballer8473 Look at the plan by the Regional Plan Association. Rpa dot org
John Clayden Newark the armpit of New Jersey.
I'm enthusiastic but not an expert. It looks like the new facilities wont be enough after 5 or 10 years. I hope the 4th runway is being planned as we speak.
Thames Estuary Airport is what's needed but all these back hand deal's get in the way of everything.
I love the music behind this video.
Heathrow really said: 💣🏠🛫😂
Real Meaning:
We need to use bombs to destroy the houses for a third runway
You don't just need a 3rd runway but a runway running North to South for use in strong cross winds.
this is long overdue. We need this to boost the economy
We like to keep heathrows unique community. 👍. Demolishes hundreds of homes.
lol First up next :"The future of London's airports" by Jay Foreman.
Heathrow desperately needed this.
By 2026 😂 probably the biggest aspiration in the video along with being ‘ greener ‘ . Impossible when your actually building another runway 🤥
I think this is a great idea
