That noise around the airport

As you may have read in The Inquirer or other newspapers, some Delaware County residents and many of its political leaders are opposed to a plan the FAA is studying that's designed to reduce flgiht delays in and out of PHL. The FAA is expected later this spring to choose one of four alternatives for rerouting air traffic, or leaving flight paths as they are now. Read the most recent Inquirer story on the issue,

The FAA has not done a good job reaching out to us in Delaware County. We have to give Congressman Sestak credit for bringing attention to the airport issue. I hate to see a plan that can help the horrible airport ontime performance get scuttled, but i don't need to hear aircraft all day long. I work in federal regulatory advocacy for a living, and this administration has not done a good job coming up with good proposals. I'm sure there's a better way. I'm also sure that this administration won't find it.
