RE: Is noise really the problem....?
It has always been about NOISE and PERCIEVED DANGER.
It was 50 years ago.
Did you really expect to make BIGGER planes with LOUDER engines and think you could have LESS problems ????
Some of you are LARGE spoiled children who want THEIR way just like they had it as a CHILD.
Grow up or lose ALL your playpens.
Some of you do not see yourselves as MOST of the rest of the adults do.
TOO BAD.
