The project, expected to cost approximately 1.5 billion baht, and that the number of flights is anticipated to rise from 50 to 73 daily.

Great news thank you George.

So, more flights (and I live directly under the outgoing flight path when the wind blows from the north).

The new Ferry terminal down south.

The new bridge to the mainland.

Better order more water trucks chaps.

 

Oh. I nearly forgot.

That probably means that we can forget the 22:00 to 06:00 quiet time.

I don't think so. 75 operations of both start and landing is not a lot within a 16 hours window; i.e., a separation time of about 6 minutes. Busy airports operates with 2-3 minutes.
