I object to this development because: 1) It will cause more air pollution. 2) It will cause more noise pollution. 3) It is unnecessary as less people are flying since Covid. 4) We already suffer with night flights which I thought weren't allowed. 5) The current planes cut the beacon rather than fly to it to save fuel and this is not policed now so who would police this when twice as many planes are flying overhead? 6) Gatwick have a poor employment history as they sacked everyone when Covid struck. So when less people fly they will reduce their staff, not conducive to good employer/employee relations. 7) Our roads in Sussex, Surrey & Kent are generally in very poor repair and more traffic would just make matters worse. 8) Our railways are at breaking point too so we don't need extra passengers.
