Airport seeks legal clarification on night flying

[markietg]

I worked for over 10years in hotels in Leeds city centre, usually on the front desk. We often got complaints about noise coming from outside the hotel. I used to love to handle these with my delicate put answer “we are a CITY CENTRE hotel, you are bound to get some noise especially at weekends” If they wanted peace and quiet go stay in the countryside.

Also just added my comments to the YEP article for what its worth as I doubt anyone at the newspaper will bother to read the comments, but we have to do something to stop all the negativity towards LBA driven by a few hundred NIMBY's. Many thousands of jobs here are at risk all for the sake of a few hundred protestors. If they don't like it they should clear off to some remote Scottish Island were they can live a peace and quiet. Oh sorry no doubt they'd then be complaining about the sheep baying through the night.

Would certainly make it easier for them to pull the wool over the eyes of the local Scottish Council!!

Ocht Aye, Ye ken.

No doubt. I can just see it in the Highland Gazette or BBC Scotland....

'Yes there were sheep here when we moved in, but not as many as there are now. Keeping me awake. Much noisier than they used to be. I need my sleep. And then there's all that lethal methane poisoning the atmosphere too. Baa Baa. Blah. Blah!'

Cat 1 sheep then, very noisy!

Has anyone got a link which shows what each aircraft type is rated at in the Quota Count?

Apparently noisiest at Fleece Bradford Airport!

The LBA quota count is based on the London system which is explained here.

I think another thing that seriously needs taking into account is that we are a much more 24/7 society in this day and age. Don't get me wrong daytime is still the main/norm but more and more things continue during the night. And as is well documented what was here first - airport or residents? Should really be the end of the argument but that's just wishful thinking of course

Best airport baa none!

Thank you

Least we will see more late evening baa-rcelona flights!

Or even direct links from Ewer in Indonesia and Ramingining in Australia on Royal Air Maroc. Hope the clever ones amongst you will work those slightly tenuous links out!

Another woolly post

 

[Bigman]

But maybe a texel cross might be quieter at night than a Swaledale

 

[Finger66]

If this all rules in LBA's favour then they who shall not be named might start acting a bit sheepish

 

[ls27]

And may be flock off

I’ve seen a few wealthy sheep up at LBA, they all drive Lamborghinis.

Is that Ewe Grant?

I know all these jokes are wildly off topic but we have to do something until the result of all this is announced. Let’s hope the joke will be on those who cannot be named and that we will be laughing our socks off.
