London Southend Airport and Environs Joint Area Action Plan Preferred Options
Representation ID: 7944
Received: 10/04/2009
Respondent: Rochford and Southend East Constituancy Labour Party
We are concerned about the number of night flights proposed. We appreciate that 350 per month are currently allowed but this number is not used and an increase to the current number would put intolerable disruption to those living under the flight path. We call for a restriction on night flights to the current level of use. The averaging of night flights throughout the year must not be allowed. It is not acceptable for an increase in flights during the summer season balancing a reduction during winter months.
