I just emailed the 'close essendon airport' people this message;

I dont understand? You move next to or nearby an airport and then complain about the noise or danger, etc. So if you went and bought a house near a train line would you start a campaign to have the train line ripped up? Essendon airport has been there well before any of your houses were built, if you don't like it I suggest you move somewhere else. I currently do my flying at Moorabbin airport and believe me, it's 20 times busier than Essendon, yet none of the nearby residents complain, simply because the airport was there first, and they know that. There's a reason why houses that are near airports, train lines, freeways, etc, are cheaper than those that aren't. Maybe you guys should have thought of that before you bought your houses.

Interesting to see if they respond?
