I am very concerned about noise from Farnborough and Gatwick airports caused by increasing flights over my house. Farnborough airport was meant to measure noise as part of its review into its recent airspace change, but failed to do so. I offered the use of my garden to install noise measuring equipment, but had no reply. Farnborough is now applying to expand its operations. The noise is already unbearable and I wish to strongly object to the present operation, let alone any increase. We were not previously overflown by Gatwick but now suffer noise from that too. Aviation should be reduced, not increased. The noise is damaging to health and millions of families in the south east are now severely affected by this.
