Finché nel 2022, il 90% delle denunce sull’aeroporto di Dublino proveniva da una persona, che ha fatto oltre 23.000 reclami in un anno

for those wondering that breaks down to roughly
63 complaints every single day
good grief that person needs to get a life
That one person… r/Ireland
My spirit animal
Its an automated system, when noise went over a certain DB limit it would send a complaint automatically.
Man buys cheap house beside airport, gets annoyed by frequent airplanes.
I remember seeing this early on in the year, crazy stuff
That’s just plane wrong
I heard this guy was exposed as having a decibel meter attached to a raspberry pi. When it exceeded the allowed decibels it automatically sent a complaint.
Which is fine and grand, but the issue was depending on where the pilots took off or landed on the runway and the direction the wind was going meant sometimes the decibels recorded seemed louder than they were.
A difference of 2 meters on the runway (which is nothing in terms of a plane wheel, meant the allowed decibel level would be broken by about half a decibel.
Wind going in the direction of the decibel meter could carry excess “noise” that wouldn’t have been noticed otherwise.
He made himself non credible by not building in a tolerance and hovering it be a nuisance.

Monday morning in work… “So what did you do over the weekend?”
And I’ll do it again.
Some people really just don’t understand how human beings think.
If he’d actually considered how to make his point, he could’ve set up the device to log and record sounds once they exceeded the DB limit, then submitted a single, well-documented complaint outlining the exact frequency and exact volume of the noise. That would have been really compelling and hard to ignore.
Instead, he decided to flood a random complaints inbox, making it impossible for anyone else to use it, and now, instead of having everyone on his side he’s famous as the freak who sent 90% of the complaints. If you remove his spam, the number of complaints made by other people *doubled* over the course of a year, but because he flooded the system, that number is completely masked.
People could have thought of him as the guy with the horrible noise situation near the airport, and instead they think of him as “that weirdo crank with nothing better to do, who makes things worse for everyone.”
The other 10% were about the T1 toilets
You’d think Michael O’Leary would be too busy for that carry on.
Does the decibel level breach planning or other regulations or what is the angle of the complainant?
