If you look here:

you will see that there has already been a public-funded study into this issue which made a number of recommendations. It was about 6 years ago, so it would be interesting to know if any of the recoemmendations have been acted on. It certainly doesn't seem that relations between the aerodrome management and (some) local residents have been restored.
