UPLOAD OR SEND US YOUR VIDEOS AND STORIES
Many people don’t really understand what it is to leave under a flight path, with the noise of planes overhead.
We are suggesting you make a short video of what it is like. It can be done on your phone. Best to make it no more than 2 minutes. (Twitter, for example only takes videos of no more than 2 minutes, 20 seconds). Ideally upload it to twitter or other social media sites but, if you email it to us (johnstewart2@btconnect.com) we can do it for you. We will also put it on this website.
We are also suggesting you write a short account - no more than 150 words - of what it is like to live under the flight path. Again, the ideal would be for you to put it on soicial media yourself but we can do it for you iof you email it to us.

Stockwell, South London, directly under London City's concentrated flight paths. All City planes lower than 2,000 ft. A passionate call for the flight paths to be alternated when they are looked at again in 2026/27 to provide some respite from the noise.
