There is now 52% more low altitude plane traffic over Park Slope, according to the FHA. The Brooklyn Paper reports that this traffic is the result of new airspace design patterns implemented in 2007 that bring planes headed for LaGuardia through a corridor from Bay Ridge, over Park Slope to the Long Island Expressway. Helicopters are also directed over Park Slope and Prospect Park, as per information gathered through the Freedom of Information Act by an irate Park Slope resident, who is also a pilot. The new traffic patterns are meant to alleviate congestion at LGA, and other local airports. For some residents, according to the article, the noise is unbearable. What say you Park Slopers?

Might wanna try a dress. They’re all the rage at fashion week this season.

fsrg- I was referring to a thread that was on b’stoner quite awhile ago about this same thing.
Just great, DH, pick on those of us who buy our clothes at J.Crew, but have no problem with planes flying overhead! What can I say? J.Crew does a 28″ inseam!!
HAHAHAHA!!
Jackal – actually offended you compared the way Park Slope men dress to Williamsburg 22 year olds. Last time I walked on 7th Ave it looked like a J Crew ad.
Yes, I do live in Park Slope, but obviously when I say there are zero exceptions I mean zero exceptions except for me. Why do I even have to explain this to you people?
lechecal – which are you?
and Bxgrl – where does it say that PS or anyone from PS has tried to get the flightpaths changed???
> But wait – don’t you live in Park Slope?!?
LOLechacal. I never would have pinned him as a Sarah Lawrence type.
