I would like to oppose to the cargo flights. Having experienced the airport way back when the airport was still in action, i remember the noise, the house checking and the cracks in my walls but more importantly my son and all the kids in the area with blue or brown hinaler. It can't be a coincidence that none of the kids around us no long need prescription for those hinalers we all had in our drawers. If you don't care about noise polution at the very least we have a duty of care in our children health. Planes use the most fuel, and produce the most harmful emissions, during takeoff. On short flights, as much as 25 percent of the total fuel consumed is used at this time. Please dont compromise on what matters the most, our children.
