Flights directly over house same time, every day.

    Hi all, I'm hoping some of you more in the know could shed some light on something for me.

    Over the last few weeks there has been at least 2 noticeable flights directly over my home at around 10.30pm (cargo to Liege) and a 4.30am flight. They're departing from runway 16/34 every time, regardless of weather conditions.

    I know that when I bought the house that it'd be on the flight path at times, which is fine, but this is every day at these times and it wakes my family up, which includes two young babies.

    Would there be any reason for the same flights to use this particular runway every day?

    10/28 is closed nightly for maintenance between 21:15 and 5:00. Traffic departing during these hours have to use 16/34.

    Interesting to know as I always wondered why airplanes are flying over Clontarf every evening and you rarely see one during the day.

    Living in Marino there's 5 AL planes land one after the other about 4am each morning.

    (Also have 2 young babies hence me being awake)
