They never use both runways, because they are right next to each other. The shorter one is only used if the main runway is not available. They are so close to each other, it would make very little difference to approach and departure paths.GDB2222 said:Gatwick has two runways, although normally only the southern one is used.

The chances of that are close to zero, it was already rejected in favour or the 3rd runway at LHR.GDB2222 said:

Who'd have thought that an airport owner would be looking for ways of utilising an existing runway to increase capacity at almost zero cost?
