Woldingham's skies threatened by Biggin Hill airport expansion

Biggin Hill Airport Hotline: 01959 578580

FlightPath is an alliance of residents and other groups opposed to the further development of Biggin Hill Airport (BHA). At stake, is the protection of all residents affected by operations at, and flights to and from, BHA plus the protection of the local environment.

Woldingham Parish Council (WPC) is a member of, and fully supports the activities of FlightPath. This is because we already suffer from extensive low-altitude over-flying by executive jet planes using BHA and any further expansion of this airport will only increase their frequency. If BHA get their way, we could even see scheduled flights operating from this airport resulting in very much larger jets landing and taking off over Woldingham.

It is therefore in all residents best interests to be aware of the issues by logging on to the FlightPath website so as to appreciate the threats we face:

One easy way each of us can help, is to phone the airport's complaints "hotline" whenever you spot a plane overhead that is either too low or too noisy. The number to ring is 01959-578580 - let Biggin know that you are not going to live with the intrusion of their planes.

Unless we all help to oppose Biggin's expansion plans, Woldingham could end up having a problem the size of Stansted airport on our doorstep.
