Brisbane data for November 2009, compliments of
Airservices Australia spokesman Matt Wardell
On average in Brisbane, there was about 70 noise complaints a month from about 25 different people, with most complaints from the suburbs of Coorparoo, Camp Hill and Holland Park.
For Nov 09, complaints doubled.
46 people made 164 complaints
...seven Coorparoo residents were responsible for 15 complaints, while five in Camp Hill lodged seven complaints.
In Holland Park, just three people were responsible for 62 complaints last month
Half of the noise complaints were made by 15 people.
Mr Albanese, whose seat of Grayndler abuts Sydney airport…
Mr Rudd, whose seat of Griffith is less than 10km from Brisbane airport…
Wayne Swan, whose electorate is badly affected by aircraft noise from Brisbane airport
There's the real reason.
