Very nice graphics, Lloyd. Thanks for sharing. Pity that BAC have three of the four runways incorrectly titled on their airport new works visual summary. Not that that would be noticed by most people.

Do we know which airline or airlines will/might move into terminal 3?

[lloyd fox]

No James i don't however the new terminal will be both Domestic and International.
