Chief Executive, Heathrow Airport
Heathrow Third Runway NW OptionColin Matthews, Chief Executive
UK priority for trade and economic growth
Top global destinations by GMP served by other European hubs but not by Heathrow
Without capacity for frequent direct long-haul flights the UK is being cut off from important markets
Unique importance of a hubA hub airport is uniquely important to establishing long-haul flights. Transfer passengers allow airlines to fly to more destinations more frequently than could be supported by local demand alone.
Heathrow supporting the UK in the ‘global race’
Transfer passengers allow Heathrow to serve destinations not served by any other UK airport
202 of the UK’s top 300 companies have HQs within a 25 mile radius of Heathrow.
Heathrow – best placed…for business and the economy
Best placed for passengers
With only 17 milesof new railwayHeathrow couldbe further integratedto the southern,western andHigh Speed 2 railnetworks, openingup 2,000 miles ofthe rail network forpassengers and increase use of public transport to Heathrow to 50%
Heathrow is getting quieter
Even with a third runway, in 2030 there will be around 10-15% fewer people within Heathrow’s noise footprint than today.
Quieter planes
Phase out noisiest aircraft
90% next generation e.g. A380, 787, A350, A320NEO
Only quieter aircraft get new take-off and landing slots
Quieter operating procedures
New flight paths to avoid populated areas
Steeper approaches – 3.2 versus 3 degrees
Displaced thresholds – 700m further down runway for smaller aircraft
Runway location
Each mile west means aircraft are ~300 feet higher over London
Respite
Alternate runways used for departures and arrivals
Periods without over-flight for every community
Noise insulation
100% insulation costs for high noise areas or significant new noise

Background
• Air travel is here to stay
• Heathrow is most travellers airport of choice
• Heathrow is well run (but full)
• The success of Heathrow is crucial
• Capacity where it is most needed
• Simple and quick and cost effective
• Significantly improves the noise climate
• Minimises land take and impact on local communities
Heathrow Hub
I. Northerly runway extended to approx 6,600m
II. A link to the nearby mainline railway and Crossrail
III. Car parking, reception area and possibly a terminal co-located with the station
IV. Realignment or bridging of M25
Four Individual concepts moulded into one plan
1. Simple and quick2. Cost effective using private capital3. No village communities destroyed4. Relatively small number of residences lost5. Integrated ground transportation solution6. Early morning noise reduction7. Periods of respite still possible
Benefits
1. Global- Aviation industry can grow within Government limits
2. Local–Much smaller land take and lower impact on areas of special protection–Improves air quality by spreading NOX emissions–Improves the noise climate compared to today
Environment
Noise is a crucial consideration
Modern runway approach
We can improve the noise climate NOW
1. Inset thresholds of 27L & 27R2. Measure arrival noise with penalties for poor
performance3. Lower landing gear with maximum 7 miles to
touch down4. Change continuous descents to constant rate
descents with a minimum of 1000 ft/min5. Lower take-off noise limit6. 10 mile arc on radar screens
1. Precise arrival paths and offset centre lines2. Respite achieved by regular changes to arrival
routings3. Whole day alternation possible for some
communities4. Reduced noise by better approach drag
management5. Two stage steeper approaches
We can improve the noise climate SOON
1. No new communities need to be affected2. Deep landings possible particularly in the sensitive
early morning period3. Respite can be provided. e.g.
– By alternating curved approaches– By alternating centre lines– By restricting capacity at certain times– By segregating heavy/light traffic
With the Heathrow Hub
Modern runway approach
• Could be used to provide further capacity
• Could be used to eliminate Night Flights
• Would permit deeper landings on both runways and reduce noise levels at certain times
• Could provide spare capacity to improve resilience
Just a thought…A short extension to 27L
• Capacity where it is most needed
• Simple and quick and cost effective
• Significantly improves the noise climate
• Minimises land take and impact on local communities

The Need for cross-party agreement and delivery
• Two Key Strategic Reasons:
• Provide Confidence and Certainty in the Market
• Improve Efficiency
@ACEImpact
Join us on Twitter:
The need for cross party support
Provide confidence and certainty
• To international investors who can help finance infrastructure improvements
• To reduce the risk premium (associated with political uncertainty) charged by financiers
• To consumers and the general public as to the action that will be taken, and how externalities will be mitigated
• To industry, allowing it to develop and nurture the skills required to deliver new capacity
• That the UK will continue to be a key strategic aviation hub
@ACEImpact
Join us on Twitter:
The need for cross party support
Improving efficiency
• Allow the market to account for aviation investments within their business plans and investment profiles
• Allow the construction sector to design and plan whole life solutions
• Allow the construction sector to invest in delivery tools that reduce the long term costs of delivery
• Allow government to develop future policies with certainty, as international trade will develops

Join us on Twitter:
NIP, Airports, Airports Commission • As the main document for guiding investment into
UK Infrastructure, the proposed way forward for aviation will need to be built into NIP
• Aviation within NIP currently only covers specific investments at airports, such as terminals, runway extensions etc. but provides no context for wider aviation policy leaving a policy gap
• The NIP should provides all parties with a tool for planning and delivering investment
• Need to engage HMT / IUK and DfT etc. in the final report
Publication of the Airports Commission’s final report - Summer 2015

NIPSEF - cross party support & Delivery
• Government can use resources such as NIPSEF to reinforce the need for investment, and bolster cross party support
• Improve the extent to which aviation stakeholders are active members within NIPSEF, to improve feedback to government
• Industry is happy to aid government in achieving not only cross party but also public support for investment
• Delivery Model options:
• ODA
• Cross Rail
• HS2 ?
