I believe this should be supported. LGW has the best rail connections particularly compared LHR. The current congestion on the single runway causes aircraft to hold, engines idling, unnecessarily causing pollution and environmental bar. Modern aircraft noise is much lower and while departure noise may be more difficult to mitigate, it does not disturb us in the way it used to. Again, more flexible runway capacity will enable better approach options reducing fuel waste.
