Media portray Leeds Bradford airport unfairly.

So the NIMBY woman interviewed on Look North tonight lives on the Scotland Lane estate. She complains bitterly about the constant noise. Maybe it is one of the BBC business editors neighbours!

This estate was built right at the end of the runway AFTER it was operational. What the hell does she expect? Why buy a house within yards of the runway lights and then whinge about aircraft. I hope these people know that the vast majority have zero sympathy and are laughing at them. Totally ridiculous .

As for the BBC, they made sure that one of the comments they selected to show was one saying DSA should be Yorkshire's airport and LBA should be closed. Maybe it was the Mechanic!

I remember when they were applying to extend the runway "years ago". They interviewed a lady who had moved to a house on Scotland Lane recently and said "when we came to look round the house there weren't any movements, so we thought it would be quiet".
Shouldn't you check the area before you move?
