Where the noise comes from

Yagoona hears traffic from 2 distinct sources:

Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport

live map →

15 overflights/day (63%) · typically 5,600 ft

Yagoona sits under Kingsford Smith's western flows — departures climbing out and arrivals sequencing across the region pass at moderate altitude through the day.

Bankstown Airport

live map →

9 overflights/day (37%) · typically 800 ft

Below that, Bankstown's light aircraft cross the suburb between the field and the north — circuit traffic and departures, typically around a thousand feet in daylight hours.

Light-aircraft counts are tracked overflights only — many training and private aircraft carry no ADS-B transponder, so true numbers are higher.
