I have been in my house in the Bluffs for 50 years and have never experienced the amount of noise from the airport this last year. That kind of noise causes many health issues, and there is a high cost to people when the air traffic goes directly over our homes. I've been told that the change from flying over the bay is lower fuel costs for the airlines. If that is true or not the cost to us as homeowners is unacceptable. There is no excuse for such noise.

Alaska Airlines is the worst at noise abatement, Southwest tends to be the best imho

It is time to put the planes back over the center of the bay and reinstitute the power reductions that greatly ameliorate the noise the residents of the Bluffs are suffering.

Please restore JWA flight paths to those agreed upon in the past. The new flight paths are destroying our neighborhoods.

There has been a noticeable change in how much louder the planes are over our home. It's awful and the pollution is much greater than before.
The planes should stay over the bay and throttle back as they once did.

I have lived in the Baycrest neighborhood for 20 years. This is the WORST it has EVER been. We have to keep windows closed now - and can't enjoy our beautiful weather as freely as we once did. This new take-off allowance is not acceptable. Planes always used to fly over the bay and avoid our homes - now they fly low and overhead. The FAA must return to prior take-off procedures and disallow the left turns over our neighborhoods. This FONSI is not accurate and must be overturned -we are being detrimentally impacted with each flight that departs JWA.

Could a lawsuit be in the offing? Or no rights there?

I used to fly privately so I know a little about aviation. It is clear some airlines are worse than others in caring. And yes, the situation is far worse than 6 months ago. Given how far south the routes are now, I suspect that many of the sound monitors are useless now. They are in fact running roughshod over the community.

Please GO BACK to the sound restriction ordinance that used to be in place a few years ago! The sound pollution is unbearable & the difference is very noticeable.

We have lived on the bluff front since 2011 - the change in plane noise has been material over this period - due to take of patterns. The recent changes have had a strong impact on the noise level on our patio and in our home. Several planes now fly directly over our house with full throttle. Only Southwest have been consistently respectful with quiet and consistent routine. Alaska and American should be banned in my opinion due to the excessive noise during take off. We have had several offers on our house fall through due to the increase in plane related noise and . Even people living in the Bluffs have noticed the increase in noise and chosen not to buy our house for that reason. This is costing us a lot of money- and causing a great deal of stress.

Have lived under the flight path for 36 years. The noise and filth from the planes is dreadful.
This is just not fair to do to the residents.
