what a joke Labor are !!!!!
That new high powered repeater rifle I'm buying, might come in really handy on July 2.

In fact they made a very clever call there. Basically what they have proposed will appeal to the voters around the airport who are scared of aircraft noise, without effecting the operations substantially at all, as Ben Sandilands explains
Labor commits to 24-hour Badgerys Creek airport

Isn't that the bed that all the other reds are hiding under?

The govt's money is your money. The cupboard is bare.
Do you really want to be paying much higher taxes/markedly reduced welfare ? Then stop asking govts to do things.
Govts are incredibly inefficient at doing anything.
I'm guessing the Labor plan is to build it clear of habitation, say 200 clicks east of Alice, and run Greyhound buses to Sydney. Danger is though, that some rare flora/fauna may be disturbed. We'll have a ten year study into the problem.

, so the greenies will insist that it be built elsewhere.
Which of course will require another ten year study.....

& now electricity Bill Short guy, wants to bring back a pseudo carbon tax, which will jack up power bills & anything to do with transport costs will go up, on a day when deflation has just been announced to somehow satisfy a few green voters who still believe in global warming & might some how switch their sneate vote from greens to labor.

Hrmm, storm, meet teacup. It's not like reciprocal runway ops for noise abatement late at night are unknown. Brisbane, for example. It's also explicitly discussed in the draft Western Sydney Airport EIS as a means of minimising the number of residents affected by noise late night/early morning. That document seems to manage to talk about the operations strategy without once using the word 'curfew', too.
If it allays the (not unreasonable) concerns of western Sydney households about aircraft noise and helps get Badgerys Creek built, then good on them. As the Ben Sandilands article observes, both sides are falling over themselves to soothe western Sydney electorates before the election. Labor just twigged first to the wedge politics possibilities available in the EIS!

Badgerys Creek debacle has been going on for so long and now it still isn't going to be ready until the mid 2020s. Why don't they just get the Wagners on the job. After all didn't they build Wellcamp in about 18 months and have had Boeing 748s landing there.
If private enterprise can do that in 18 months and for $140 Million (if I remember correctly) then why does it take the pollies so long to get it done. Hell the Wagners could put in multiple runways, bigger than necessary Terminals and have it up and running BEFORE 2020.

What a shame it'd be to actually let an airport operate as an airport in this country....
On a serious note, I have no issues with reciprocal operations during the middle of the night, provided that should the wind conditions not be suitable, then there is still the freedom to use the most appropriate runway. Exactly as they do at Brisbane.
Otherwise....... may as well not even build it. Then there'd be no extra jobs. What would Labor think of that then?
