The Southern Echo are getting hysterical about proposed changes to the approaches to Southampton and Bournemouth without giving any concrete information as to what is actually changing. Could someone knowledgeable post information about what these changes actually are?

As reported in Friday's Daily Echo, the controversial scheme has been drawn up by Swanwick's National Air Traffic Services (NATS), which wants to accommodate more aircraft by moving the flightpath boundary by five miles.
If the scheme goes ahead the planes will be able to fly at just 5,500ft across much of the New Forest and over built-up residential areas, including Totton and Romsey.
