The Deputy's suggestion is good. I thank Mr. Fitzpatrick for agreeing to it.

I have some questions for the witnesses. At the moment, the procedure is that the planes taking off on the new runway are banking to the right, while those taking off from the original runway are going straight on. I am sure other people have asked this before but I do so for my own benefit. Is there the possibility for planes on the new runway to go straight out and those on the southern runway to bank to the left instead?

Is there a reason this cannot be done? Is the area heavily populated? Does this aspect involve the Air Corps or Baldonnel? I do not know what the issue is.
