A PARALYMPIC cyclist who was banned for a doping violation plans to shut down Heathrow airport with a toy drone in protest over a third runway.

Bronze medallist James Brown, who has just finished a ban for missing drug tests in 2016, is one of four people who say they will fly miniature drones within 3.1 miles of the airfield next month. 

That is according to a statement released by new environmental campaign group Heathrow Pause.
