The Airport Roundtable can make recommendations to the Airport Authority about ways to address noise concerns but the Airport Authority is the governing body in charge of the airport and this group is responsible for implementing policies to address airport noise. The Authority has absolutely no control over how and where the aircraft fly. Once the wheels of the aircraft leave the pavement, the aircraft is under the control of the Federal Aviation Administration Air Traffic Control. Safety is the #1 concern and keeping maximum separation between aircraft takes precedence over noise related concerns.
