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

The Boris impression hit differently in December 2020

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.

“It could cost more than a 100, 000 pounds!” Well, he isn’t wrong

2:54 "We got there first, and now we're the worst"


I love this man

[ilregulator]

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

[catfAtT]

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

[imautuber]

It's obvious, just build it underground like they did with the railway.

Such a shame you didn't make any more of this show, just come across them today, they're awesome!

"More than a hundred thousand pounds"
Hahahahaha

[j.s.]

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.

You know it's a BRITISH airport if even the planes have to queue

[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

I just realised this is the first time Mark appeared in a Jay Foreman video, at 7:15

[jacefairis]

to clarify: Heathrow was at the time the busiest airport by international traffic (Dubai has since passed it), but it's not the busiest by total passengers. That'd be Hartsfield-Jackson in Atlanta, which pulls over 100 million passengers per year -- 20 million more than Heathrow. Heathrow is the busiest airport in Europe though.

Hartsfield-Jackson is fuckin massive, btw. It has 5 runways, spills out of the original unincorperated area into 3 different cities, has been the busiest since 1998 and had the most planes take off since 2005 (except 2014 weirdly), and has the largest single airline hub (Delta accounts for 75% of its traffic).

This portrayal of Boris Johnson has aged perfectly

[JDLoxx]

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

[hamanakohamaneko]

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)

[Zero_Ninety]

Fuck me, how did you get Boris Johnson to agree to appear on your show?
