air planes

I know this is a controversial subject, but whatever.  So I was out for what I was hoping would be a nice summer night walk to Davis, and all I hear for the entire walk are extremely loud and low flying air planes.  Logan is sending every plane over our neighborhoods today...a new plane every 30 seconds.  So loud that you have to pause your conversation.  I was able to capture one on my phone cam, so nobody can deny it this time.

Anyways, I remember there being a lawsuit a few years back.  Something about the city of Somerville suing Massport for illegally overusing the new runway against what they communicated before creating the new runway.  Years have passed and nothing has happened with that, as far as I know.  Is there any hope in putting an end to this, or at least reducing it a bit?  It wasn't ever this bad 4+ years ago.  Just looking for more info, as the mayor's office doesn't seem to respond to emails about this.

This + 100.

Maybe someone should start a davis_square_airplane_noise community. These posts are getting frequent (and annoying) enough to warrant one.

So clearly these postings should be routed over the Atlantic?

The polar ice cap for preference.
