My Main issue is with Air Noise for both departing and arrivals at Gatwick. I consider the current noise level to be above SOAEL, in the recent hot weather I was unable to have my bedroom windows open as planes would take off every 15 seconds up to around 12:30 ish then start again at around 5:30 am, also when watching the TV if I want to have the door open for fresh air I need to pause the TV until the plane has gone over otherwise I would not be able to hear the TV, these affect my quality of life, I did register a complaint on the Gatwick Airport website which was automatically acknowledged as being received but I got no response from Gatwick Airport. There is a 40 acre forest on one side of my property and a large field on the other, WHY do the departure planes need to fly directly over my property, flightpaths need to be considered and changes made as the current flightpath is having an adverse affect on my mental wellbeing
