[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The smartest thing that came out of the working group recently was an acknowledgment last Thursday that the Potomac river north of the airport is just too narrow to provide any noise abatement. [/quote] Area residents know it already. Those on the Working Group who who pushed the flight path towards Bethesda in 2021 aka towards the river had only one goal in mind - to move it further away from their own house. [/quote] They did it knowing that it would increase the noise for Bethesda when they asked the FAA for an early turn to the west at low altitudes. Airplanes turning require more thrust. Therefore more noise. Residents of Glen Echo were never told that a new waypoint was placed over their neighborhood.[/quote]
