    "Tory mayor of London, Boris Johnson" wow that's a throwback.

    I seem to be 7 years too late...but did anything actually change with Heathrow? Or is it still the same today?

    “It could cost more than a 100,000 pounds!” Well, he isn’t wrong
  • @jdhuyck
    You know it's a BRITISH airport if even the planes have to queue
  • My dad works in the aviation industry and it’s really incredible how well Heathrow operates even with just two runways, they’ve got all this fancy technology and staff dedicated to ordering planes perfectly so that they can reduce minimum times between landings. It’s quite incredible already, and there’s plans to change the system to operate as effectively a twin-single runway system to increase the capacity just a little bit extra.

    Imagine your walking home and you just see some guy shouting SHUT UP at the sky.

    it always amazes me how people can move next to an ariport and then start to be annoyed by the noise

    I just realised this is the first time Mark appeared in a Jay Foreman video, at 7:15
  • @letthetunesflow
    Slams fist “Owwwww!” 😂….Not sure why that made me laugh so hard but it sure did! Your humour is just impeccably delightful!
  • @imautuber
    It's obvious, just build it underground like they did with the railway.

    I am very impressed with that shot at 7:51. You had just one take to get it right before the ship passed, and you nailed it. More impressively, you managed to resist finishing your martini while waiting for the ship. 8:56 Wiser words were never spoken.
  • Man, never knew this channel was so huge. Can't believe they could get big man Boris on for an interview.
  • @Frahamen
    Solution: just start a pandemic and nobody will fly anyway.
  • In case anyone was wondering, the commision in Parliament mentioned in this video decided to add a third runway to Heathrow with a legally binding limit on noise, time restraints, and a promise to never build a 4th runway
  • 5:14 One, wait no, Two corrections: 1. Narita isn't on reclaimed land, it was built inland far from the city center. The one you were talking about is probably Haneda, where land was reclaimed next to the city center. 2. The order you said was Kansai, Narita (Actually Haneda), Chubu, Nagasaki, but the images are actually Haneda, Kansai, Chubu, and presumably Nagasaki (Idk how Nagasaki Airport looks like, never been there)

    I love the gabberhouse sample when you mentioned Schiphol.
