In a May 11 letter to FAA Administrator Michael Huerta, Governor Hogan asks the FAA to “immediately return to the pre-NextGen flight patterns” at BWI Marshall Airport and Reagan National Airport.
The FAA has said that NextGen technology and procedures are boosting safety in the skies and also saving the airlines billions of dollars in fuel costs. In his letter, Gov. Hogan acknowledges that the current flight patterns are saving the airlines a lot of money but he wrote, “I will not have the citizens of Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Howard and Montgomery Counties pay a human cost with their health and emotional well-being.”

The airports and planes were there when you bought the house. Too bad. Don't buy a home near a church if you don't like church bells or near a vol. fire dept if the siren bothers you.
Legislate a higher operating cost for airline companies so they realize less revenue causing less taxable income for the state. Brilliant!
Sounds like some rich people in some fancy neighborhoods have been complaining to their elected officials. They want the routes to go back to their poor neighborhood lanes.
