the new route if the airport is on the Westerly runway. Otherwise there is no effect at all on any other flights. Imagination is a wonderful thing. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14745#post-196951 Wed, 26 Aug 2015 09:46:20 +0000 kaputnik 196951@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>We've also noticed the approaches over Arthur's Seat have changed, swinging west from in-a-Restalrig-village sort of a direction to a directly-over-out-flat sort of direction.</p> <p>However thanks to the hill they're still pretty high and we've got the rumble of traffic on London Road and the trains held at the signal on the approach to Waverley to blot out the noise. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14745#post-196949 Wed, 26 Aug 2015 09:28:44 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 196949@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Does this new route for the commercial aircraft have a knock-on with slightly altering the routes of everyone else? Our house is virtually below the flightpath in Duddingston, which isn't really a problem as they're still pretty high, though we do occasionally get a surprisingly low pass, but the angles seem to have changed all over the place recently (and not just the usual that happens when the wind is particularly strong in a different direction). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14745#post-196945 Wed, 26 Aug 2015 09:20:50 +0000 chdot 196945@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/transport/call-to-stop-edinburgh-airport-flight-path-trial-1-3869004" rel="nofollow">http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/transport/call-to-stop-edinburgh-airport-flight-path-trial-1-3869004</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14745#post-196935 Wed, 26 Aug 2015 08:23:39 +0000 chdot 196935@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>By email</p> <p>"</p> <p>You Feature a story on the Edinburgh Airport route trial here <a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14745" rel="nofollow">http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14745</a></p> <p>can you consider supporting the local residents who are against this?</p> <p><a href="https://www.change.org/p/edinburgh-airport-stop-the-new-flight-path-trial" rel="nofollow">https://www.change.org/p/edinburgh-airport-stop-the-new-flight-path-trial</a></p> <p>There's also some posts/stories on local sites for Blackness, Uphall and Ecclesmachan.</p> <p>thanks<br /> George</p> <p>" </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14745#post-187185 Tue, 28 Apr 2015 17:43:46 +0000 chdot 187185@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"</p> <p>EDINBURGH Airport will trial a new take off route that has the potential to double the number of planes using the city.</p> <p>The route, which will be tested for six months from June 25, will see south-bound planes routed over Broxburn and Uphall, before turning east over the Forth, then south over East Lothian.</p> <p>"</p> <p><a href="http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/transport/edinburgh-airport-flight-path-change-could-double-flights-1-3757016" rel="nofollow">http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/transport/edinburgh-airport-flight-path-change-could-double-flights-1-3757016</a> </p>
