Dear Sirs, Please affect changes as soon as possible in the flight paths of JFK landings. The changes in the past several years of the landing path have put an intolerable new burden on living in our home. The flights are so frequent and low at times that the house actually shakes, repeatedly. In warmer weather, not only does the house shake, but every 3-5 minutes all conversation must be suspended as there is no ability to hear each other with the windows open or if you are in the yard. The landing path needs to be modified in a manner to share the burden and spread out the noise. Height levels must be strictly enforced and consideration should be given to the amount of air traffic that crosses Long Island to land at JFK. For example, flights come north over the island (east of us) then turn west over the Long Island Sound and then head southwest towards JFK directly over our home in Stewart Manor. Why, when Long Island is an island, aren't flights kept over the sound or ocean w/o crossing the island? Route flights over the water, eliminate crossing the island to line up for the runway approach (go further east and come down the sound) and develop multiple flight paths to spread the frequency of the approach over every neighborhood. We live miles from JFK - our windows should not be rattling, our conversations should not be suspended and the house should not shake. Thank you, Lee A. Ackerman
