I feel that building a second runway would impact on the surrounding environment. Gatwick have been using their emergency runway regularly causing aircraft to thunder over the top of my home with night flights. I moved from under the flight path of Terminal 5 at London Heathrow which impacted on my sleep, my breathing and my anxiety. I now find the noise pollution has impacted my sleep, my health all over again and I will have to move home yet again. It seems that Gatwick really don’t care about anything else other than their profit margin since using their ‘spare runway’ the extra traffic this has generated in surrounding areas down the country roads and accidents on the M23, A264 and the A24 has multiplied too. Horsham used to be a no fly zone and now that has been abolished it has caused mayhem
