Third runway and T4

[RHG]

sometimes i wonder if i should bake a batch of muffins, much more calmer than the spread of emotional bullets i see flying around.

The runway and terminal extension plans were already in place as part of masterplan. Just a matter of when...

You may not understand half of that according to your reply. But is ok, the video say it all.

Err, sorry but none of that has anything about your bizarre and still unsubstantiated claims about a 'failed' system and redesign of T1,2 & 3 required. And posting links in Chinese to an English language message board is another mark of genius. Added to that the top link is about a third runway at your beloved HKG that won't exist for at least another decade and I have got to go with Savage25 here ; what on earth are you smoking ?.

Whilst the SkyTrain fulfils a function I am not in favour of any airport that forces passengers onto a train or bus etc. Unfortunately this comes about by extension, such as HKIA and ICN. LHR in the very least managed to keep T1-3 all in the same place for what feels and looks like centuries so it's done a reasonable job given its limitations, moreso when considering Tube access.

Airports like Beijing and KUL were built from Day1 to use a train and this is something I can't agree with. Even BKK stands up to scrutiny in this company.

Changi works, given the nature of expansion through the years, and still better than even a couple of newer facilities. I knock Changi for not building a suitable T3 to handle all SIA flights but, credit where it's due.

Nope. I've looked back through your posts made since you made those two bizarre claims and I can find nothing but more inane nonsense and what seems to be a peculiar obsession with HKIA, none of which explain those two statements.

So I'll ask again ; in what way is the Skytrain a 'failure design' and how would you redesign T1, 2 & 3 ?.

Wow ! It's you who thinks the skytrain is a failure, not me. And you expect me to think of a better design for you ? You for real ?
What's your basis on saying the skytrain a failure ? And how is your proposed Circle line be able to negate your perceived problems of the skytrain and produce a better inter-airport transport than the existing skytrain ?

Simple questions. I'm waiting ...

Tell me what happen when we started to build T3. What happen to the skytrain? when hey have to stop for major rework? Then try to put youself in same situation if T4 will be up soon?

When I say circle line. It is not the circle line MRT in the first place. What I hope is a train service run round the airport terminal, both way. So you can reach any terminals in any direction without going to the different "gate". This kind of system has been used in different airport in the world.

The skytrian is only good when we have only T1 and T2. ie point to point. Worse is skytrain itself is single track without backup (well, backup is thru buses).

Keep you mind open and study more design from different airport will help you to think better.

Look back on my previous post on HKIA plan or new extension and 3rd runway. May be you have forgotten.

Any options for us to help you think better and post something that actually makes sense ?.

You seem to have a handy knack of finding a bigger spade each time you post about Changi to dig an even bigger hole.

I am still waiting for your suggestions on how to redesign T1, 2 & 3 and how the Skytrain is a 'failure design' ?.

Can you please furnish us a detailed explanation on your idea of a circle line( type of train, routing) ?

Run like Usain Bolt?!

Usain runs out of puff between gates. Think you'd need to run like a good marathoner.

Can I have some of whatever it is you're smoking?

They should really run a circle line under ground between the 3 (or the 4th) terminals. Just like many large modern airport in the world including the one in HKIA.

Skytrain failure ?? What do you propose than ? Aladdin & friends to transport people on their magic carpet around the airport ?
