The contours are averages. When operating on easterly departures (not all that common, but ?15% of the year) the take-off path from the northern runway (becoming the centre runway if the third runway is built) will go over Brentford, Acton Paddington. Fig 6.7 of the Future Noise Estimates report show a "daily range of 0 - 228" departures to BPK (Bedford) and BUZ (Leighton Buzzard)taking this route. There aren't enough days in the year for this to contribute massively to the contours - but when it happens you may notice it ! It won't happen in Uxbridge and Sunbury. |
