We have a major airport that has been here for ~100 years. But that doesn't stop the residences under the flight path from attempting to sue, and pushing for it to move to someone else's neighborhood.

People are selfish and shitty.

Depends. There is an airport not too far from here, but when we moved in 20 years ago, they were closed from 22:00 to 06:00. Passenger counts declined, and to become an air freight hub, they pressured politicians to be able to fly all night.

I can understand everyone who sues under these changing circumstances.
