Plane Sense from Plane Sense

Plane Sense is a local community group pushing back on an unlawful flight path change. This time it’s our community, next time it could be yours.

The affected residents have a legitimate expectation that Wellington Airport (having public law responsibilities) would consult before any proposal to divert aircraft over their suburbs. The consultation they are now offering was required by law BEFORE the DMAPs flight path change was developed.

Change is divisive, so it's frustrating that a proper consultation process didn't happen before implementing the DMAPs flight path change. We are arguing a lack of fair process before the change. If the residents had been consulted beforehand, they could have had a say before the status quo for the last 60 years was altered. Those residents, who knew a change in noise would be an issue for them and their health, could have had their say and been considered.

Plane Sense is holding Wellington International Airport Airways New Zealand, Civil Aviation Authority of NZ and Wellington City Council (as a shareholder) to account for a change over the northern suburbs on 1 December 2022. As well as significant legal issues, there are public health and safety concerns for residents and our local environment. Plane Sense is fundraising to commence a judicial review. Have questions?

Decks decks Ashton building

Pete Ashton from Decks Decks

Decks and structures need maintenance . Just because it stood up to the Christmas crowd is no guarantee it is safe . Mould left unchecked can trap moist in timber rapidly increasing the rot time .
Nails and fixings can corrode away to nothing , leaving just luck to hold the structure in place . It can be a few bolts that need replacing or something more complicated but don't leave it until the luck runs out . Contact Pete Ashton 7 days 0274403242
