Yes, but increased flights at night are putting noise levels on people that already live in that area , Lex. I would hate it. And as far as Church bells, or even living near trains, which I like, that's ok by me. Church bells are only on a Sunday, and probably an hour on their practice night. So not overly intrusive.

Not nice if you're under the flight path.

I wonder about the timescale of the extra 7000 flights; if night flights are increasing by 2.3 per-centage points, that can't be that many extra a week: [url]https://leamingtonobserver.co.uk/news/more-night-flights-at-birmingham-airport-prompts-concerns-54084/[/url]
