Bosses at London's Heathrow Airport are to rank airlines according to how noisy their aircraft are as part of a plan to try to make the area quieter.

Heathrow chiefs also want to increase fines for airlines that break noise limits and try new plane departure routes and steeper approaches.

Plans also include establishing a new noise insulation scheme for homes and offices around Heathrow.

A Fly Quiet programme is to begin later this year.
