In the Independent Herald today

Plane Sense from Plane Sense

The Independent Herald has reported on the public health, legal and safety issues raised with the High Court, about the 1 December 2022 DMAPS flight path change. The change results in a concentration of jet engines above our suburbs, decibels level of up to 80dB and exacerbated health conditions susceptible to loud noise and reduced sleep - including brain injury recovery, dementia, sensory and noise processing disorders, depression and more - in children, the elderly and vulnerable members of our community. Please support your neighbours in pushing back against this change, a process that was approved under time pressure and has regulatory issues.
