Aero-News Quote of the Day

"Implementation of a noise complaint system is the first concrete result of a now years-long process of collaboration between the FAA, homeowners and helicopter operators. But while this is a step in the right direction, we are still waiting for a final determination from the Secretary of Transportation on the progress of all six voluntary measures set out in the FAA's initial report on helicopter noise. Much more progress needs to be made and it is my hope that this noise complaint system—along with the data it collects—will provide us the necessary information to better identify the bad actors and bring about noise relief to all Los Angeles residents.”
