As interesting as these photos are please keep in mind that every one of these aircraft fly over someones home. With the FAA’s recent adoption of NextGen for flight control airplanes are flying lower and more concentrated over communities across the nation ruining once quiet neighborhoods and destroying the health and quality of life for millions of people.

No offense to those in areas where it makes a difference, but I don’t think the impact at DIA will be noticeable. That airport is nowhere near where anyone lives.

A month? Potentially up to 20 years in some places…
