noise from Palo Alto airport

[[email protected]]

Every day these noisy, small private planes from
Palo Alto airport destroy my living space.

They fly too low, and this causes their low
frequency motor noise to enter my home and
drive me crazy.

Especially on weekend days, there is either one plane
entering or leaving my airsapce, so there is a constant
level of airplane nosie.

I was happy to read that this airport is a money
loser, and it might be shut down, but not until
2017, when the lease is up.

Is there a way to shut this nuisance down any sooner?

Okay, I now you're nothing more than a troll, but:

You could move.

Also, don't be in too much of a hurry to see an airport close, more
often than not they build other, even noisier industrial projects in the
airport space.

Is there any way to make you act like a civilized human being who
respects others' rights?

When did you move into your home?

That airport opened in 1935, after noise complaints forced it to move
from its original location in Stanford. Why should it be forced to
close or move again because people moved near the new airport?

If your family owned the place prior to 1935, you have a valid
complaint. If not, I'm sorry -- the airport was there first.

Go take some flying lessons, now when you hear the planes you will remember
the joy it brought you. Now instead of hating the planes you will love them.
This could improve your sex life.

Palo Alto airport is bordered on the northeast by the San Francisco
Bay, to the southeast by a water treatment plant and garbage dump, to
the south by an industrial park, to the west by a golf course, and to
the northwest by a slough and industrial area beyond that.

Residential areas exist about a mile away, west of the golf course and
west of the slough.

I'm sure some people who live there don't appreciate the noise, but,
damn, if PAO is an unacceptable siting, what place is?

Is people seriously started talking about closing it, I'd seriously
freak out!

Then move.

Some years ago I read the complaints on a local anti-aviation website
that were intent on closing "my" airport.

One of the longer complaint stories was written by a family who
considered themselves terrorised by our planes; but if one dug
through the whole history of their sufferings, it turned out they had
recently moved here from the vicinity of *another* airport, and were
appalled that there was again an airport close to their new home,
obviously set on irritating them again.

Now, if I was so aggravated by noise that I had to move, I'd make damned
sure I moved well *away* from any airport, and not 'by chance' put
myself in the same situation again. But not these guys.

My take is they bought cheap 'noisy' property, then started a local
anti-avaition campaign to oust the airport, and by this hoped to raise
the property value in time for their next move.

If true, they are further cementing their demonstration of ignorance, no
doubt.

An unresolved anti-airport campaign can only serve to reduce property
values. The airport is still there, and the campaign itself argues that the
airport is a negative aspect of the neighborhood. By drawing attention to
the airport as a detriment, the property values go down.

Without the campaign, one could easily just ignore the existence of the
airport when selling one's home. I presume that the presence of the airport
is not required to be disclosed, since these buyers weren't told when THEY
bought the house. But even if it is a required disclosure, many buyers
might not be scared off so long as the seller's aren't making a huge fuss
about how much they hate the airport.

Yes - run through security so the guards can't stop you. If it shuts
down SFO, it should shut down Palo Alto (you may want to practice at
SFO).
