As I said last night, today (until 3pm) they are using 27R and its approach is a km or so north of 27L - so, yes, it will appear as if it's more along the Thames. They are using 27L tonight... and the planes are flying directly overhead bits of ED as its approach corridor is further south than 27R. There's really no mystery here. In days gone by, you must have inadvertently timed your visits to Dulwich Park with them using 9R/L or 27R. Now you're unfortunately synched with when they're using 27L and so you are noticing more planes.

I live in Nunhead and I don't think I ever hear planes that loud. That sounds like Hounslow or something.

Fazer, I'm guessing you're aware what's causing the Airbus warble.

Apparently Lufthansa and Air France are in the process of installing these devices to their A320s to silence the wailing. BA not so keen (apparently).

Are you sure it wasn't a 176?

So (to be somewhat mercenary for a minute) does this the noise over ED will be worse or better?

So why keep reading the thread? I'm seriously interested. Is it a 'guilty pleasure' or does it really irritate you?

It's a simple case of moronics.


1. The urge to comment on a thread with meaningless irrelevant statements.

2. An urge to tell others how they should think, what they should how they should feel and what they should be saying / doing.

3. A lack of understanding of other people issues and problems.

4. A complete failure in common sense.

5. A desire to be seen as important or funny by making fun of others problems or simply belittling others points of views or issue concerns etc.

6. An inflated sense of their own importance vs other.

7. A moronic Ego.

8. A dead area of the brain which blocks logical thought.


moronics is a growing problem Artful has a bad case which has been developed over many years through a combination of genetics reading online illogical drivel and having lived in a fantasy online community where the members are unwilling incapable or unable "due to also being morons" to correct moronic comments / posts.


moronics is difficult fix, as it become embedded in the ego the sufferer is unable to see it makes them look foolish and stupid.


And we all suffer the constant nonsense it causes.

The flight path seems to pass over southern and central SE22,but I'm not sure what the current flight path is so I don't know if it's worse. It could change the Heathrow flight path, but the City flights can be noisier as they're lower and turning.

The city flights are way less intrusive smaller aircraft which fly over faster and less frequently.


Heathrow is the problem big lumbering whistling jets every 2 mins 40 seconds whining and groaning droning constantly one after the other on the same path.

From 4.30 am.

My experience is very different. Every low flying noisy flight that has woken me up is a late-running London City flight. It may just be where I am, but they seem much louder and jarring especially the prop planes.

But it will get a whole lot worse.

EU rules to modernise flightpath technology are being lazilly implemented or proposed to be implemented. London City Airport are proposing to use new technology that means aircraft will much more accurately follow pre planned standard flight paths. So it means much more intrusive noise for people close the centrelines - some have dubbed it 'noise ghettos' will be created.

This is compunded b Lnodon City Airport having agreement from Tower Hamlets Council to icnrease flgihts from 80,000 to 120,000 per annum.

27% of the time the flights paths for London City Airport fly over Easy Dulwuch, Dulwich, Herne Hill, Brixton Battersea. The fly between 3,000-2,000 ft during their descent.

So a real problem, that will be magnified and dramatically increased.


If you oppose this then do respond to the public consultation - I've put the various links:

James thanks for that.


I still believe that 90% of the aircraft noise we suffer comes from Heathrow bound aircraft.


City Airport flights are currently far quieter and way less frequent.


Proof of this is evident when following live satellite flight data.


Heathrow is THE problem!




We must not get sidetracked by city airport. !

    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
