> How thoughtful of the court to value noise over passenger safety.
Thanks to lobbying by top-dollar consultants and lengthy legal battles, John
Wayne -- the third-busiest commercial airfield in Southern California -- is
now the most tightly controlled airport in the U.S. when it comes to noise.
A curfew mandates that no commercial planes can take off before 7 a.m. or
after 10 p.m. most days, nor can they land later than 11 p.m., except in
emergencies. Late arrivers are generally diverted to LAX. A 1985 settlement
resulted in passenger and traffic caps on the airport. Now the rich shits
want to add an S-shaped turn to the high takeoff angle to "steer the noise
away".

Most everyone in Orange County agrees that they need another airport.
However, there is the NIMBY factor...

For awhile, the deactivated Marine Corps Air Station at El Toro was under
consideration after it closed in 1999. Most of it has since been demolished,
including the runways. The last plane flew out of there in 2007.
