Today, DfT released the details of its mandate on so-called Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). We welcome the fact that there’s no mention of ‘guilt free flying,' but the Gov’t have still managed to make several misleading claims 😤🧵 1/9 questions-statements.parliam…

Night flights (the up to 16 flights each night, 0430-0600) are driven overwhelmingly by passenger convenience of boarding times in the Far East (HKG, SIN) not by freight.

Heathrow expansion is unconscionable, unenvironmental and unnecessary. Our letter in this week’s Surrey Advertiser ⤵️

See Heathrow now denying it will no longer build 3rd runway. Either way, it says it wants to increase ATM to 505k. Against advice of @theCCCuk. Self-interest and no environmental consideration. cityam.com/heathrow-denies-r…

What's interesting is Heathrow seem to brief one thing to the press and another to residents, suggesting some internal wrangling is underway. Perhaps no-one knows the true status of the 3rd runway right now. Does nothing for the ongoing blight for residents though.
Replying to @NoR3Coalition
Key paragraph on the third runway. According to this piece, the third runway could be some way off

Heathrow back in dithering mode over their plans for a 3rd runway. Perhaps because of an election in the offing? Heathrow need to end the threat ASAP and the quickest way to do that is for the Airport to announce it is instead 100% focused on being a better, not bigger Airport.
