Gensler Architecture firm has revealed its concept for the new London Britannia Airport. The proposed floating airport for London, located in the Thames Estuary, is an entirely new approach to modern airport design.

The Floating airport will include 4 floating runways tied to the seabed and the terminals will be connected by underwater tunnels.

Another crazy idea for the Kent people to live with, Stansted one of the nicer airports is running at less than 50 per cent capacity and Manston at even less, with the advantage its near to the channel ports and fast rail link to London. and the added capacity could be up and running today not in 10/15 years time.
Don’t put all your eggs in one basket, what about the fog you get in the estuary
The SS Montgomery is a real problem, again sorry for the people of Kent, because why is it OK to make safe for an airport but not for the people in Kent, don’t they matter?
