I am happy to hear that.
My question relates to timing. The new runway has been in operation for 22 months. It is a little bit of an issue if the DAA is saying that it will take another six months, or thereabouts, to get to a point where another potential flight path is identified - or not - that reduces the number of people being overflown. If a third-party contractor is being used, and I mention the busyness of the airport, which I entirely accept, and the fact the DAA will not be planning it anyway - is there any way we can speed up this process?
