[Avodah] R' Nissim Karelitz's Beis Din: Kohanim cannot fly / What about Beth David cemetery?

[Ben Rothke via Avodah]

Yes, but there are 4 runways at JFK

04R/22L
04L/22R
13R/31L
13L/31R

About ½ of all flights use 13R/31L.

With that, it remains, a sofek d'orisa.

Not all planes pass directly over the cemetery.  If they did, then it would
indeed be a problem.
