Dublin Airport has rejected claims that it is in breach of planning permission granted for the North Runway.
Airport operator, daa, said it is "fully participating and engaging" with the Fingal County Council investigation into the runway that opened last August. The operator recently undertook a review of the departure flight paths from the North Runway and identified that some Instrument Flight Procedures were not aligned with modelling assumptions included in daa's planning submissions.
A daa spokesman said the review found that the Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs) needed to be updated and the revised SIDs were approved by the Irish Aviation Authority and became operational on February 23.
