In this report, it claimed that the passenger and cargo scheme of its site, which is 45km in the south of the capital and greater to that of Heathrow airport.

The other two schemes studied by the commission, set up by the government of the UK in 2012, were an extension of the current northern runway at Heathrow and a second runway at Gatwick. In 52 page manuscript which issued this week, Gatwick airport complaints of basic mistakes in the Davies discoveries.

Its own reports, including A Second Runway for Gatwick, Airports Commission Final Report and Areas of Concern negates the statements of Davies about Gatwick expansion would emphasis on short haul routes while Heathrow would use the extra capacity to boost new long haul contacts.

Both Heathrow and Gatwick realize that long haul services are very important and the key of cooperative freight demand. The report issued by Gatwick airport describes that the commission has put a great deal on the forecast freight volumes of the three schemes. But a question arises here that will Heathrow airport deliver fruitful benefits to freight operators?

The Davies report, sponsored by organizations including the Confederation of British Industry and the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport, admits that aviation supports protect the place of UK-based manufacturers in difficult worldwide supply chains.

It records that Heathrow airport controls the UK air freight market, it manages approximately 75 percent of the £140bn worth of the things passed through UK airports in 2014. The commission said that by 2030, pharmaceuticals and chemicals industries are expected to be among the top five export markets of UK because their products are transferred by air.

Gatwick declares that with a second runway it could again produce to competition Heathrow in air freight terms, which give further capacity, a large long-haul component and a condition which more accurate traffic forecasts would reveal. Stewart Wingate claims Heathrow could not provide a third runway in his lifetime and said that Gatwick is much static in the competition. If the government adopts the Davies judgments, Gatwick claims it will take the matter to the court.
