Sleep deprivation, televisions being drowned out, and high stress levels caused by aircraft noise have driven some Brisbane residents to rally outside Brisbane Airport Corporation headquarters on Wednesday.
The rally drew about 100 people to the BAC office, brandishing placards such as “Why destroy our city”, “Stop the noise atrocity” and “Fix the flight path”.
