I used to live alongside the main runway of a provincial airport and
enjoyed living there enormously. Much better than them building houses
on the land and I got to watch beautiful machines taking off all day.
I was situated roughly parallel with the point at which the airborne
aircraft initiate gear up - fantastic. Imagine that as a backdrop to
your summer barbecue.
If people don't like living near to Heathrow they shouldn't have
bloody well moved there in the first place.
The Great Central Railway (preserved steam railway at Loughborough) is
currently objecting to planning permission for an apartment
development alongside Loughborough station.

Some, particularly older people for whom enforced moving home is a
major stress, were there before this monstrosity grew to its present
proportions. ...

The number of inhabitants of the "ancient village" were few in number.
What you are whining on behalf of is the vast majority who cose to move
to live close to Heathrow *after* the construction of the airport.

That food needs to be as fresh as it can be. He's probably just
pissed that Concorde has stopped so he can't get that "just picked"
taste.
