I live in the Fairdale area. Airplanes have been coming off the south bound runway, and kept us up all night long from 3:00-5:30 a.m. this morning. I think they can do better than that.

We are having flight over Clarksville again tonight. The people over here have asked that I call you, and let you know whenever this happens. Just letting you know another night of lost sleep in Clarksville.

The planes are causing our roofs to turn black, and the vibration is causing cracks.

I would like to know what the new flight pattern is and when it changed. I would like to see what the flights looked like one week ago today, and compare them with today.

Let me know what the airport is going to do. I am about to let my attorney get going on this thing. I am just waiting to know what the airport is going to do. It has been long enough.

Starting a few months ago, UPS jets have been taking off to the north, then turning 180 degrees and then going south. The planes turn right over Crescent Hill area. Why the change? The flights are very noisy. It is not predictable either; some nights they don’t fly over. Why do the pilots have to fly over heavily populated areas?

I would like to make a very strong complaint that the new runways will seriously affect the quality of my life.

I called you yesterday about Tuesday nights flights over Indiana with the wind direction out of the north. Well we are getting the same thing again tonight. We have checked all three news channels again and they are saying the wind is out of the west northwest at 1 to 3 MPH. I need to here from you. I need to know why the planes are coming in from the north with the wind out of the north. This is not supposed to be happening. We are supposed to be getting relief when the wind is in this direction.
