      >The figures show one individual living close to a main flight path in St Margaret’s, Co Dublin submitted 7,535 complaints in August 2024 – a daily average of 243 complaints

      By god. That’s a mental illness at that stage

      I’d love to hear people’s opinions on this. One individual accounting for a significant number of complaints and a handful of individuals making up the majority of total complaints the airport gets annually with regards to noise levels. I saw an aerial photo recently of the airport in the late 1940s and it’s surrounded by fields, absolutely no one within miles and miles of it. None of these people bought or built their homes and suddenly an international airport was spawned in their back yard. I appreciate aircraft and engines have changed significantly but the newer engines are getting quieter, and with the dual runway system in place, people in the flight path of the airport don’t have aircraft flying overhead as often because they alternate the use of both runways and the direction of operations. It might not be exclusively an “Irish thing” but there is a theme in Ireland with NIMBYs that halts progress (or at the very least slows it to a crawl) in so far as we are world class at pandering to it.

      They obviously have a noise meter in place, which is programmed up to a GSM unit of some kind, and an email is sent every time is recording an above limit sound.

      I don’t really see the issue if the airport aren’t keeping to their required noise levels they should be held to account.

      The only important point re this is – were the complaints valid?

      Well,…at this stage, if I where the airport, I would make noise out of spite…

      Fuck em, they obviously overlooked the airport getting busier over the years when they bought the gaff well tough shit, if they can’t deal with the noise sell it and move to quieter pastures

      Going to put this on LinkedIn and use it as a case study on tenacity and how it can be applied to B2B SaaS sales.

      How to get the airport to never listen to your complaints, ring them 200 odd times a day.

      I live in the flight path of another major airport, a plane is currently going over head. I’m deaf to the sound unless some helicopter or massive giant plane is going. I know it’s easy to say move house but christ…200 times a day is ridiculous.

      That’s crazy, a call every 6 mins, 24hrs a day to give out about planes, I don’t even think Ryanairs customer support has that volume of calls

      Airport has been there since 1936, every person under the age of 90 in Swords knew exactly what to expect when they bought there.
      Some people have absolutely no lives and will spend them dying on a hill that no sane person cares about.
      If they really had a problem, they would move, but these moans still want to go on holiday from Dublin as it’s so conveniently located. Be great if you could ban them and make them drive to Knock to go on holidays, then we will see if they stop complaining hahahaha

      I’d worry more about the mental health of the people submitting that many complaints than I would about the noise.

    21. illogicalpine on

      Its laughable that neanderthals like these are being given airtime. They live next to the largest airport on the island, of course there’s going to be noise from flights.

    22. lem0nhe4d on

      I mean firstly there is no way in hell this is done manually.

      It’s definitely done by someone that wrote a program to send a complaint every time the decibel level goes above what the airport allows for.

      You wouldn’t even need to buy any new equipment as the airport has their own decibel meters and you can get data from them live.

      It is a bit hard to feel sorry for your man. Looking up where he is the village is literally between the two runways, don’t really know what you would expect living there.

      I’m not saying to be rude but whoever did this needs a Psychiatric evaluation because no sane person makes an average of 243 noise complains every single day for a month if not a Psychiatric evaluation then they need a month prison for being a nuisance

    24. TeoKajLibroj on

      >DAA’s figures show the top five individual complainants each month accounted for 46,197 complaints last year – representing 65 per cent of the total number of complaints

      This is a sign of an unhealthy obsession. I live near the flight path and I hardly notice the planes.

    25. DCON-creates on

      That’s a complaint on average, every 4-6 minutes, if we include time spent asleep or not. So yeah, doubtful that it’s a real human…

    26. Thick_Koka_Noodle on

      This the lad with the sponsored Twitter posts about it?

    27. Top-Needleworker-863 on

      Why did these people choose to live near an airport in the first place.
