Flying into Canberra last Saturday night (from Melbourne) I was amazed at how low over Gungahlin the plane passed on approach to Canberra airport.
I previously thought it was residents of Hackett or NSW that had problems with planes yet finding this letter it seems that Gungahlin has a serious problem with the airport.

I now understand the delays and red tape in Canberra getting (even limited) international flights.
