This afternoon has been somewhat unpleasant.  Not as bad as the worst days, but still . . .

Does anyone know if runway 13/31 is closed?

I never know where to look on that link that people frequently provide.  Where does it show the announcements regarding runway closures?

"Weather conditions at LGA Airport have caused flight disruptions. Check with your airline to determine the status of your flight."

Yes, the website shows that it's closed this weekend.  Here's the link http://webtrak5.bksv.com/panynj4  Then look in the messages pop up window.

TIME TO WAKE UP!!!

Indeed, top of the morning to ya.  (Now, where's that damn coffee mug?!?)

With LaGuardia's expansion moving forward, I'd suggest this plane noise issue will be the biggest detractor to our property value and quality of life in the foreseeable future.  And, dare I say much more so than the advent of Hipsters (btw, welcome welcome one & all). 

Now that Rep. Grace Meng's endeavors on this issue has failed in Congress (https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20160714/jackson-heights/plea-fix-queens-plane-noise-ignored-new-federal-bill-grace-meng-says), we need to amp up the pressure even more to make sure the affected communities have a voice at the table.  For those willing & able, I'd urge everyone to stay informed, get involved (Queens Quiet Skies) and communicate with your elected officials.  With regard to the last, I hope we aren't bring brushed off simply because there was one Town Hall held last year.

Finally, here's a primer on all players involved for those new to da hood--

Stay cool & enjoy the weekend.

Well at least we took care all the eyesores stuff.

Expect to finish 2022 we got plenty of time left to decide to move... ::)
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-07-20/new-york-s-8-billion-airport-still-won-t-get-you-to-l-a

And I hope that it won't end up like other cities where the airport is dominated by one airline hub, causi ng other airlines' ticket to be very expensive. So we might got nice and good looking airport but end up using JFK or Newark for price reason.

Thank you for catching that Bloomie article, JinJH, which mentions the "perimeter rule."  If I understood Rep. Crowley's comments correctly during the Town Hall, I shudder at the thought of bigger and more, but not necessarily quieter, planes utilizing LaGuardia.  While I'm not sure of the economics/profit margins of short haul vs. long haul flights for Delta, a key stakeholder, we need to ensure our voice is heard as well, moving away or otherwise.

In the past, the FAA has taken ZERO notice of people's complaints.

Not only that, in their press releases, they minimize and invalidate our concerns.

It is a delusion to believe they will take us into consideration in the future.

They do what they want.

Isn't that obvious by the bombardment of noise we have to suffer?

My guess is, they will scrap that perimeter rule and one day the rule simply won't be there...

NO ONE CARES. Seems like the people in charge care more about a pop up convenience store on 37th ave  than this quality of life issue.

okay,
 the summary of a thru k's collected work is that everyone who's in charge of everything completely ignores everyone else, always has and always will and we must do something ourselves, bypassing "them."

at the rish of being dismissed as a non-visionary, i have one question.

what?

Due to how quickly things "flame" on this board...
I won't be responding to personal comments...
Thanks for the discussions everyone!

But I will continue to post my thoughts into the great cyber world here...on this cool site...
About this, the most  fascinating neighborhood in all of NYC...Jackson Heights
Where there is positive inspiration to be found in the most surprising places... 
And where I am taught something new every day.

Including not to get involved in online bickering.  Which is actually quite an important lesson in today's world!
