Noise level at Leipzig/Halle Airport slightly lower at night

Some complaints distort the picture of noise pollution

According to this, the complaint situation has not changed significantly in terms of the number of residents complaining about aircraft noise. According to Puchmüller, there were two complainants who automatically submitted hundreds of individual complaints. One man is said to have built his own monitoring system that automatically sends a complaint email when a certain noise level is exceeded. Such cases could lead to a distorted picture of the situation, said Puchmüller.

Deutsche Flugsicherung (DFS) presented the results of the latest FLK audit. It was examined whether the departure procedure from the southern runway to the north could be shifted further to the east during eastern operations in order to relieve the corridor between Krostitz and Delitzsch without creating additional stress on the ground. Criticism came from representatives of the district of North Saxony and the municipalities of Krostitz and Jesewitz. The FLK then called on DFS to submit additional studies.
