Managing quality is the act of overseeing all the activities andtask needed to maintain a desired level of excellence. This involves a determination related to thepolicy of quality, designing and developing quality planning and assurance, and control ofquality and quality improvement. Present study will lay emphasis on London Heathrow. It is oneof the major international Airport established in London, United Kingdom. It is one of the sixthinternational airport which is serving greater London. The airport of Heathrow is utilised by over80 airlines and is flying to over 185 destinations in 84 countries. MAIN BODYArguments against on the decision of 3rd runway and sixth terminal at London Heathrow Airport.The UK has the 3rd largest aviation network in the world and London’s airport serves moreroute than any other airports in the whole Europe. But it has been analysed in the case study thatLondon and the south-east part are now facing long term capacity problem. This issue is havingan adverse impact on the UK economy and affecting the country’s global competitiveness. Forovercoming this problem, the cabinet has taken decision of 3rd runway and sixth terminal atLondon Heathrow Airport (Bell, (2016). This plan of cabinet is being opposed by the localresidents of London, South-East and the green group. They have argued that expanding the 3rdrunway and sixth terminal on the London Heathrow Airport will be useless and unnecessary. Itwill affect the life of the local residents and will also create huge amount of noise and airpollution. It has been analysed by the activists and the environmentalist that the expansion of theHeathrow Airport can take the lives of thousands of people. The more emersion of carbondioxide in the air can cause hurricane and even the hot drought. This can affect the living lives ofthe people adversely.

population density against the flight path will increase, the vast bill appalling geography, theconstant degradation of environment, increase in the noise and air pollution and the wretchedmanagement record of the owners of the London Heathrow Airport. By increasing the 3rd runwaythe density of population per unit area will increase which means the country has to spend a lotof resources and money to fulfil the needs and demands of so many number of people. Also theHeathrow Airport is one of the major densely populated area in the London. The Airport isseverely constrained in terms of space not only for its runways but also for its terminals. It hasbeen analysed from the local residents that the noise coming from all the flights flying fromairport is only intolerable. Further expanding the Airport will make their life worst.
