I am against any further expansion of Luton airport. You did not listen to the people of Stevenage during the previous consultation and expansions. The planes come in far to low across Stevenage when landing and cause lots of noise and pollution leaving residents of the town unable to enjoy relaxing on gardens, being able to listen to tv in homes with windows open in hot weather . Increased night flights disturbing sleep. You moved the holding area to Biggleswade area yet you are still flying landings across the whole of Stevenage which is actually taking plane out of thier way when they could follow straight flight path from holding area covering A1M area which would give minimal impack to the residents of Stevenage. There have been many requests for flights to be at higher altitude across Stevenage on landing but this lands litrally of deaf ears. You are Luton airport in Bedfordshire so why is it residents in Hertfordshire have to put up with the constant noise and nuisance of the aircraft. The flight path across Stevenage needs to be looked at before you look at any expansion. I would also look at since Covid is the expansion needed with the slowing of air travel!!! To clarify - until you work with people of Stevenage and stop impacting on our daily lives and sleep with the noise of the planes landing in Luton airport I am totally against any further expansion.
