Seaplanes over Jerrabomberra Wetlands

[Martin Butterfield via Canberrabirds <>]

It doesn't matter that the punters are rich.  This is an atrocity!

Hi Deb and Rod,

From the ABC today, 

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-03-15/trial-seaplanes-taking-off-from-lake-burley-griffin-sydney-route/102096748?utm_campaign=abc_news_web&utm_content=link&utm_medium=content_shared&utm_source=abc_news_web

It is part of a trial where (extremely rich) people can get flights from Rose Bay in Sydney to Lake Burley Griffin, with scenic flights also proposed. 

The article is unclear as to whether there has been any consultation with environmental groups to mitigate any damage. 

Kind regards,

Alberta.

We were at Jerra Wetlands today and noticed that 2 Seaplanes flew over Kellys and the wetlands,  they were lower than we would have expected.

Should they be doing this?
