Quieter please

Residents concerned about the amount of noise coming from planes

The planes from Skydive are noisy going up.

We suspect that they have poor or no mufflers.

A pleasant young man at the airport terminal told us that Skydive's new turboprop is quieter but we find it equally noisy.

Some of the planes circle overhead for 15 to 20 minutes trying to climb extra high.

This noise, especially in the evening, spoils the quiet hours for everyone.

No jumping after 6 p.m. please.
