Question

1. Why does the approved southern flight path (''SANEG'') out of the Legacy runway at Brisbane Airport not run along the Gateway motorway? a. Has any assessment been done on how many fewer people would be overflown using that pathway? b. Is assessment of this corridor for departures included within the NAP4B Terms of Reference? If not, why not? 2. The Aircraft Noise Ombudsman is looking into the exclusion of this option. Will Airservices postpone the planned mid-June 2026 NAP4B Package 3 decision for southern departures over land until that investigation is complete?
