Legally compliant? No
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? Not specified
There is far too much housing in the vicinity of the airport and it would appear that Southend Council have failed in their duty of care towards those near the airport and under the main flight path by allowing night flights and a proposed limit of 53,300 flights per year. The future of the airport is unsustainable, mostly due to insufficient allowance made to local infrastructure and insufficient attention paid to those who have objected to airport expansion.
