Were the changed flight paths - the February SIDs - submitted to the IAA? I am wondering about the types of considerations the operator weighs up. Some of the query from the local community is around why one thing is being done but not another. People ask about option B, C, D and E. For example, is it the case that easterly departures are taking a different approach, with banking of 10°, not 30°? Could a similar standard apply on westerly departures?
