Here is a quick summary of some of the recommendations
that were sent to the FAA:
-
Most important is to immediately restore Burbank Airport's Runway 15 departure flight tracks to 2007 conditions.
-
Reject Burbank Airport's Proposed Procedures, SLAPP TWO and OROSZ THREE, that our community overwhelmingly opposed.
-
Remove Van Nuys Airport's waypoint PPRRY from all procedures.
-
Other recommendations include higher climb gradients so the jets can ascend faster; greater dispersion; and runway rotation encouraging departures to the east.
-
Long-term recommendations include studies re noise and curfews.
The Task Force is not disbanding and will be closely watching FAA's response.
FAA will be required to provide a progress report to the Task Force quarterly.
