The increased air traffic is not a good thing for the local community. We are right on the flight path & the planes are already loud. We do not benefit from any help to upgrade our windows. The current runway makes planes fly directly over our house. They turn to land above us & make a lot of noise. We are currently not eligible for the grant for windows even though the noise is clearly heard indoors & the planes are directly above us. The current zone for grants is inaccurate & no planes fly in this zone as they come in at low heights right above our home. This increased air traffic from the new runway will only increase the volume of noise.
