No it's the noise which has created the oversensitivity!

The lack of noise allowed you to sleep in?

Runway resurfacing alters night-time flight patterns

Runway resurfacing is an essential maintenance task that comes round roughly once every decade. Last year we resurfaced the southern runway. During 2014, we'll be resurfacing the northern runway. Because Heathrow is so busy, this work needs to takes place at night.

That will mean changes to the pattern of night-time flights. From 23rd March to 31st October, most aircraft flying after 10.30pm and before 6am will use the southern runway.

Since Heathrow has relatively few night flights, the changes won't affect many aircraft ? mostly arrivals after 4.30am. There will be no additional night flights.

What does this mean for you?

If you live under the flight path for the southern runway, you'll experience more night-time aircraft noise than usual

If you live under the flight path for the northern runway, you'll experience less.

Back to the noise.


Westerly operations today.


But flights must have been further north as the noise sounded 1/3 to 1/2 of last weeks levels, that could be down to wind direction but the wind is very light so probably not.


From 6.30 did noise did become more intrusive but right now 9.00am nothing ?


See flight path below shows many flight are not over ED but over the Thames this morning.

Probably poorly attended because for most people this isn't a big problem.

....................................


Looks like I made a lucky guess, eh... Talk about a wolf in sheep's clothing.


Anyhow, I'd appreciate hearing about Tuesday's meeting, please.

Just back home in ED.

Drone central.

watching top gear and the aircraft noise is constant.

drone drone drone.. In the background constant rumble.



99% of people don't want to make a fuss about negative issues.


maybe the ostrich in them stops them from making a fuss.

      Should facial recognition be mandatory for retail outlets?

      I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.

      Should facial recognition be mandatory for retail outlets?

      By beansprout · Posted

      Just shows, to me, once proud to be a citizen of UK.. now.. well if we pay/contribute to services - nhs, police, fire etc and folk who have made this there home - no matter what creed or culture.. for the love c of God, can someone  please explain to me.. how we have working royals who like them or not, have tried and continue to actually support and make a change and then we have Andrew.. who just destroys everything.. not just him, or royalty but his own children..  I had great admiration for The Queen - and respect.. as have a huge number of people.. but.. these old traditions where gosh.. live rent free and can’t get chucked out until I believe 2070? From what I scanned..well he has and continues to have it all.. has to go thru what old rules? Etc.  doubt very much he has even kept the upkeep maintenance up on his abode.. and do the shite keeps on pulling up.. What has Andrew done for UK or for that matter since he was 20?? Do please tell me       Totally off topic, before anyone jumps down my throat.. I just do not get how anyone is proud to be British at this point in time. Whoever is in power, seems to be able to help themselves to the public purse with no redress at all - Covid is a great example of lining of pockets.. Millions  given to Rowanda, so one is led to believe, to help with refugee problem and one can’t get a plane load off!  I simply do not get it at all. Use of food banks in UK growing yearly, homeless as well, nhs, police, fire service etc all on their knees..

      Green/Sedum Flat Roof

      By ElenaR · Posted

      Have applied the green roof at a number of properties and no issues you are concerned about detected. Have issues with cats defecating in the vicinity, however, they are not selecting the green roof specifically. Use decent compost, slow release fertiliser specific for green roofs, and lay it methodically not leaving blank patches. It looks amazing when cared for and adds value.

      Should facial recognition be mandatory for retail outlets?

      By vladi · Posted

      Some suggestions for mandatory action might include:- 1. Permit retailers to display facial images on the premises  of previous offenders at their local store. 2. Sound an alert and display images on screens inside the store when the FR flags up a person entering who is on the national database of shoplifters. 3. Physically bar recognised shoplifters from the premises. Should they attempt to force entry then charges should be pressed under aggravated trespass, which  a criminal offence under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. 4. Change the law to allow retailers to have enhanced powers of citizens arrest. What would you suggest? The UK seems to have the most lenient policy towards shoplifting , probably because of other demands on the police force. On the plus side, they may have more time for it now that non-crime hate incidents will no longer be investigated. Other countries, such as the USA have much more sever punishment as does Singapore where repeat offenders or aggravated cases can be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison, a fine, or both.
