| This CAA chart http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/7/London%20Helicopter%20Route%20Chart%20%28June%202014%29.pdf gives some idea of why we get so much helicopter noise in Chiswick. Westbound traffic from the heliport in Battersea flies along the river. But the helicopter route then turns north at Kew Bridge and follows the line of the North Circular as far as Hangar Lane, before again heading west. This is so that that helicopters don't conflict with aircraft on final approach to Heathrow. |
