Depends where the flight patterns go to. Either way, considering that Downtown Tampa is about 5 miles from TPA, it makes absolutely no sense that downtown Tampa should be stunted because of the FAA. Downtown Miami has the same problem with the FAA in that MIA is about 5 miles away from downtown and the FAA imposes these stupid height limits when all aircraft has to do is to not fly over downtown Miami for takeoffs and landings. The same can be done for Tampa, and I don't know why it's so difficult for airlines to do so. It's one thing if BOS is too close to Downtown Boston (about 2 miles), but it's another thing that Miami and Tampa have to be stunted because of the stupidity of the FAA!
