Residents who live around Santa Monica Airport will get no relief from aircraft noise because the City Council has shelved a controversial proposal to pay student pilots to practice elsewhere. The measure, which was rejected Tuesday night, would have offered flight schools at the airport $150 every time student pilots and their instructors moved to other airports in the region to work on takeoffs, landings and other maneuvers.

For decades, people have been building closer to the airports. To me, it's like....well, it's like building next to an airport. Foolish people, often will whine when things go wrong, for which they had already ignored their own advice.

This means the city has less money to improve the city.

I suggest the local government take care of this problem by condemning everything within 5 miles of the airport, enacting eminent domain, and demolishing all of it. Set a precedent.
