It has been a week now that helicopter training has started on the grounds of the former St Luke’s Hospital just next to the new building of the Malta Enterprise.

Who comes up with the idea of training pilots twice daily for hours in the morning and a good solid hour at night from 8 p.m. onwards? Yes 8 p.m. when one is relaxed at home trying to watch TV; you can see the picture but not hear the sound.

This training is practically done in the backyards of the buildings surrounding these grounds.

Is this going to be a permanent training ground for new pilots?

Does health and safety come into this?

What does noise pollution mean? What chance do we have to control noise pollution when the authorities are the main culprits?
