Aero-News Quote of the Day

“While I appreciate the FAA’s willingness to engage residents and hear their concerns directly, it is plain that voluntary actions will not be sufficient to address the real quality of life and safety issues raised by these persistent fly-overs. Residents living throughout Los Angeles are deeply impacted by the intrusive, disruptive and often non-emergency related helicopter traffic above their homes and neighborhoods." Source: Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA), who has promised to pick up the cause of helicopter noise in the LA area championed by outgoing Congressman Howard Berman (D-CA)
