Members of the General Public who have joined the LGA Part 150 Study mailing list,
Attached please find the 14 CFR Part 150 Airport Noise and Land Use Compatibility Study Newsletter for LaGuardia Airport (LGA). This is the sixth in a series that the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is distributing to those interested in learning more about the LGA’s Part 150 Study process.
What i dont understand is, when JFK planes use 33LR for arrivals, they are above 3000ft 10 miles out.
But when JFK arrivals to 22L, it is less than 2000 ft 10 miles out... is this really necessary ?

That probably largely depends on the operations at LaGuardia at the same time.
I never ever see airplanes going in different directions at different altitudes at the same time. (La guardia - jfk crossing paths).
The entire air traffic control system, all over the world, is based on aircraft going in different directions at different altitudes at the same time. It keeps them from banging into each other.

What I meant is, right above us, where all these airplanes are going at 1700 feet, there doesn’t seem to be a reason why they couldn’t go at 3000 feet, because there aren’t other airplanes above them.

What about the planes between 1700 feet and 3000 feet going in different directions? Don't you thing there may be problems with them?

All the charted flight paths have mandated altitudes that pilots can't deviate from unless an emergency. The problem is that due to laziness or lack of staff, controllers put planes on visual for approach about 15/20 miles out. That means pilots determine the altitude!

Can't we ask the Nassau county to hire a controller for the county who will work at the JFK tower and that is under the county supervision?
If Port Authority accepts this, then it could be a non litigious way to deal with this.

Nope...but the ATC and pilots are laughing hysterical knowing you're down below complaining,
