I am in support of growing Gatwick

Fully support the project and think it will be great for the local economy

Since covid restrictions there has been a huge increase in noisy , polluting air traffic in this area. Are people trying to 'Save the Planet' or not?

The expansion of the airport capacity will have beneficial impact on local and wider prosperity and also increase competition between the airlines

I think they should be in North Runway because planes are always queueing up to get onto the original runway
-
Gatwick Airport should have the planning permission approved for the Northern runway as it will help grow the community and create jobs in and around the local area which has to be a bonus.
-
Unreasonable added aircraft activity over residential towns
-
I feel it will bring an increase in economic growth to the surrounding areas
-
I would like to see Gatwick improve with more routes employing more people
-
We should not be building any new commercial airport capacity, including new runways because this will enable and encourage more flying when we are facing a crisis in our climate.
-
Ground noise emanating from the airport can often be continuous. Engine noise on approach, low frequency reverse thrust noise, engine noise exiting the runway and positioning to stand. Immediately,...
