00:01Leeds Bradford Airport has welcomed a decision which found it did not break night flying rules
00:06over the past three years. The ruling from Leeds City Council came after campaigners accused the
00:10airport of breaching limits during summer seasons. The council said the airport had not exceeded the
00:15night flight cap and agreed it could increase night flights each year if quieter aircraft
00:21were used within lower noise categories. The group for action on Leeds Bradford Airport said
00:28it's disappointed and is now considering a legal challenge. The airport chief executive Vincent
00:34Hodder called the ruling an important milestone and he said the framework for rules should be updated
00:40for modern operations.
