I live in what should be an extremely peaceful rural area. We already suffer from aircraft noise from Gatwick airport. If this scheme for another runway goes ahead the noise and disturbance will become unbearable, particularly during the peak summer months. Being woken up at six in the morning by a plane overhead makes one's life a misery. The noise is made worse by the fact that in such a quiet rural location there is literally no other background noise such as there would be in a more urban location: no hum of traffic, just complete quiet which is then totally destroyed.
