  • It's called approach procedures. It is necessary for aviation in instrument conditions to function. This is most likely practice for said procedures. Since aviation is more important than your garden, I'm gonna have to say: MOVE.

  • lol my grandmas house is like half a mile away from a airport its SO F***ING LOUD

  • check out my videos, i fly at faroaks quite often, and hopefully doing my solo flight soon

  • Dude Nice video! Music to my ears!

  • You're lucky to live there. I'd love to watch planes all day in the garden. If you don't like it then why did you move there?

  • @Toilu Are you saying you don't have planes flying over your garden?

  • @lucytoper No. They fly over my house terribly rarely and lower than in this video (about 1000-1200m) On a good summer day I'm lucky to see even three planes usually all Ryanair and they don't bother me at all.

  • So to sum up then Toilu, I often see one plane a minute (often more) fly over my garden. You see three planes a day. I don't think you're really qualified to comment, do you?

  • @lucytoper Yes I am? Anyone is qualified to comment to your video because I don't see any comment pending approval things? And I was just trying to tell you what's the point of living under a busy flightpath and then complaining about it? Just deal with it.

  • If that amount of aircraft noise bothers you, the sound of the birds chirping must drive you spare!

  • Awful. You have my sympathies. I live in Wanstead in NE London, and since June we not only have Heathrow at about the same as in your vid, but far worse, City Airport beneath at about 2500ft. They are completely intrusive and have ruined the area.

    It will continue whilst we have corrupt government which rolls over to aviation at the expense of residents' quality of life.

  • Thanks for your comment FTFLCY. I agree with your sentiments.

  • Lucytoper- I noticed the sky is filled with chemtrail-like smoke- I recorded some of this same type of "smoke" in several of my vids concerning noise- maybe there is a correlation?

  • Aircraft noise is always audible...above all if you live in rural areas away from big cities. Even when a plane is "en route" (letting off a contrail), flying at high altitude the noise will reach the ground for a couple of minutes. You´ll hear the noise if the plane is overflying your position.

  • If your an Aviation infusiast my house is in between 4 airports not too close but cernanley not far

  • Only three out of ten for spelling ..sorry.

  • why do you pepole move to the airport

    then conplain if it wasint for noise their be no point in having hears?

    am i right? its crazy cars with mufflers

    you can bearly here quite lawn mowers

    its a joke

  • Sorry, I can only give you four out of ten for spelling.

  • Nothing compared with my location just past the reservoirs near Heathrow

  • wow. That plane is still really high.

    You can hear that?!?

    Don't you get used to the "whispering noise"..?

    cheers

  • Alan, These are short answers as there is a limit on characters per post. I estimate height to be about 3-4000ft. Busiest time is 7-8am then in the evening say 6-8. (The rest of the day I'm at work) Yes they follow a pretty exact path. In my area I would say Gt Yeldham is noisiest. Not sure about the video positioning - try just audio with something like bird song in the background. Don't think I can answer your question re dual carriageway - it would be a complete guess.

  • Hi Lucy,

    I'm very sorry that some people have given you a hard time.

    I'm very grateful for your response as we (SOSAG) are challenging NATS proposals at the moment.

    Your video is very helpful.

    Best wishes,

    Alan.

  • Hi Alan,

    Thanks for your kind words.

    The real frightening thing as far as Stansted is concerned is that the new flight paths do NOT take into account the massive increase in air traffic that a second runway would bring.

    Wishing you luck

    Lucy

  • Hi Lucy,

    I hope you're well.

    As part of our (SOSAG's) attempt to publicise the potential blight posed by NATS latest plans (we are thinking of making a video too) I wonder if you could let me know:

    -questions to follow --

    My SOSAG colleagues found your video very helpful and we much appreciate you letting us know about your experiences.

    PS. We will be participating in the Airport Watch demo outside NATS HQ in London on 19th June.

    Best Wishes,

    Alan.

  • 1. What height do you think the planes are at when they pass over your area ?

    Alan.

  • 2. What's the busiest/noisiest time of day and days of the week ?

    Alan.

  • 3. Do the planes always follow a very exact path to the airport ?

    Alan.

  • 4. Which location in your area is the worst affected ?

    Alan.

  • 5. What do you think is the best place to make a video (ie. somewhere accessible that would be very quiet without the planes).

    Alan.

  • 6. At its worst how close would you have to be to a busy dual carriageway for the noise to be at a similar level ?

    That's the last question.

    Thanks very much for your help.

    Best wishes.

    Alan.

  • Roughly whereabouts do you live ?

    Something like this is planned for us mid-Suffolk (and other places) next Spring.

    Alan.

  • Many thanks for your comment Alan. Because of much bad feeling and vindictive comments aimed at me (which I have erased) I am not inclined to give my exact address, however, if I say I am in the Gt.Yeldham, Castle Hedingham, Sible Hedingham area of north Essex that will give you a pretty good idea.

    I just wish my poor recording would do proper justice to the intrusion we suffer here from aircraft approaching Stansted.

  • Everyone wants low fares, but they'll shout NIMBY as well. We all make sacrifices.

  • Cheap flights cost the earth.
