Would you like to see a public information session about the future of aviation training and flight paths held in Lismore?

The Lismore App reported yesterday about Lismore residents' concerns about plane noise over residential areas of Lismore.

It also raised concerns about the potential increase in air traffic when the planned international flight school goes ahead in the future, and who is responsible for monitoring and regulating flight paths and noise.

Lismore City Council is responsible for maintaining and managing the airport, and the airport is open for use by any pilot who wants to land at the strip - and who pays a fee for it.

Noise complaints are supposed to be dealt with by the national regulating body, Airservices Australia,

Northern Rivers Aero Club (NRAC) head of operations, Bill Kiernan, said the current noise problem was not with the pilots in training at NRAC, but with the other pilots who flew into Lismore from other places.

Bill is keen to see a public information session held where members of the public, Council, NRAC and Airservices Australia come together to discuss what the future holds for Lismore Regional Airport.

If you think this is a good idea that might bring clarity to the current and future situation of planes flying over Lismore, please leave your comments on the Lismore App Facebook page.
