A Long Island town long rattled by plane traffic in and out of John F. Kennedy Airport is suing for relief as noise complaints soar about low-flying jets. The town of Hempstead and three residents filed the legal action last week to try to force the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to update maps that outline noise impacts in the area — the first step in alleviating the deafening plane noise.
