Southend Airport (LSA) Consultation

(this has been sent to local Medway Councillors to see if Medway Council are assessing this and responding). Consultation finishes on Wednesday 13th September - so if you feel you may be affected, you need to respond. Planes fly over the Cliffe arae on their way to LSA Runway 5 (estimated at 30% of arrivals) at a height of 2,500' to 3,000'. The document is available from the LSA website http://southendairport.com/corporate-and-community/proposed-arrival-routes

Parish Council Response

What is this Consultation about?
This consultation only concerns aircraft arriving at LSA. It does not concern departures.
This change would introduce additional arrival routes to complement those already in operation and these additional routes are designed to replicate where possible the flight paths being flown today.
These additional routes would bring aircraft to the final ‘straight in’ approach for both runways (approximately the last 7nm). After aircraft are aligned with the runway they would follow the same final approach path as today
There are two ways to respond – by email, and by post.
