I know, slow news day.

However, for those of you who live with the constant noise of aircraft landing and taking off (I would be one, living just SW of the Traffic Circle), the big change is that CA (commercial airliners) will be following an east/west departure/arrival pattern for the most part, unless the need arises for a fully instrument approach.  In that case, the GA runway just off Sheridan *can* be used as long as the vehicle weighs 100,000 lbs or less.  In inclement weather, vehicles up to 150,000 lbs can use that runway.

Lasts 6 months, so enjoy the peace/quiet while you can.
