New planning aplication.

A public work of art, featuring three steel beacons ingraved with aircraft assosiated with Southend, looks like SE5a, Spitfire, B170 & A319 so covering all ages of the airports history, would have been nice to see Viscount or carvair included.

A rather wet, cold and windy Southend on Saturday 28th April…

Ex-easyjet lease aircraft G-EZIG departing Southend on an airtest.

EZFU Departing Southend for Faro

EZFU tucking the the gear

EZFU returning to Southend from Faro from sun to rain…

Almost home

reverse thrust in use

At the central taxiway, bet it was warmer and dryer where they came from!

Royal Air Force Sea King ZH544 popped in out of the clag for a short stop during crew instrument training

and departed again

As you all know Southend has had major developments over the last year or so. Taxiway Alpha that ran past the pan is nolonger a taxiway…

A new one has been put in for the Terminal.

Vulcan 426

View from the minibus… not often you get stuck behind a Vulcan on tow…

We preformed a low power engine run on Foxtrot (Northside) this included a slow truddle up to the hold point. Aircraft preformed faultlessly and it was great to see her move under her own power once more, even if we did got wet… VERY wet….

Mmmm Vulcan

At rest after the run.

Baby Fart…

Don’t you just hate it when you have had a good sort out tidy everything up and then you can not find anything you need to find…

It’s amazing how one little question can spark so may memories, just wish I could remember more about them but not being born until 1975 I missed a great deal of classic aircraft and teams.

I admit I am not under the flight path, I am about 2miles from the airport I can see take offs on 24 but never hear them, I would have thought many of these compo claims will be thrown out, can’t beleve the council member who bought her house three years ago never knew it was under the flight path!

Plus you have to wait a year and a day after the expantion is complete (the teminal id not finished a sit is going to be extended) before launching action then you have to have sound monitering equpment set up to check the noise levels.

The new agreement on noise:

NOISE COMPENSATION & PURCHASE SCHEMES
a. Within 1 year of the bringing into use of the extended runway the airport shall introduce:
i. a Property Purchase Scheme – providing for the offering to purchase of properties
affected by both high levels of noise (69 LeqdB(A) over the period 0700-2300hrs or more)
and an increase in noise equating to 3 LeqdB(A) or more; and
ii. a Noise Insulation Grant Scheme – offering to pay 100% of the cost of installing
secondary double glazing or 50% of the cost of installing primary double glazing to any
residential property which suffers from both a medium to high level of noise (63 LeqdB(A)
over the period 0700-2300hrs or more) and an increase in noise equating to 3
LeqdB(A) or more.
b. For the purpose of these schemes the standard mode long term average noise contour for
the first full 92 day summer period in which the extended runway is in operation shall be
taken as the base year from which to apply these measures
