The total amount paid by a typical BA 747 from London to New York, with point-to-point passengers, is £32,214 -- government tax £13,428.09 -- Airport charges I believe the actual number of passengers originating in the UK and thus paying APD is about 70% of the flight, so thats about £22k in tax (APD). Airport charges remain the same (roughly, but in any case I think they go to Heathrow ltd) What value would you put on the externality of aircraft noise? Can't be that high -- houses under the heathrow flight path are far more valuable than the house I live in. [0] is literally under the flight path, half a mile from the end of the runway. [1] is far south of the airport and not going to have any planes overhead. I used to live a similar direction from Manchester airport, but far closer, and heard maybe 1 plane a month if it overshot the runway and had to go around and happened to go over me.
