The planes are getting larger and larger and the noise level is increasing, especially on Fridays and Sundays with corporate jets. I can read the numbers as they fly over my neighborhood!

Live in the Mason Mill neighborhood and I hear the jets on approach to PDK all too well!

The frequency and the altitude of the helicopters flying over the neighborhood is absolutely ridiculous ever sense the touring companies started

Although it is only one flight at around Midnight and 1:00 am, sometimes it can be disconcerting given the practice of organization's creeping into our lives little by little. Small not-so-loud panes now, but I can see them getting larger and louder over time.

I have lived here 29 years and, in the past, defended the airport because it was here way before me. The noise has gotten so much worse in the last couple of years.

PDK has steadily become noisier in the 20 years I've lived in Drew Valley. Complaints are either ignored or stonewalled. Pilots are either not getting the message or are ignoring it. It's time to put some teeth into the situation.

Other than Angel flights, flying in and over the neighborhood at 3am should not be allowed. A curfew could help. At least for jets.

The airport does not enforce recommended flight paths of aircrafts and helicopters buzz our neighborhood where they could be making high altitude arrivals/dept into PDK.

Planes and helos are flying much lower over Ashford park, Redding Rd/Redding Way area than usual.

I concur with this petition to set Standard Instrument Departure Procedures to direct airport traffic over major roads rather than neighborhoods is a win win.

Stop the noise from PDK. Our community wants to preserve it as a small, private airport.

I hope we can get some reduction to the noise in the middle of the night.

Let's find a way to have this "relationship" work for everyone. How can we compromise, take care of each other as caring and cooperative neighbors? Please, PDK, remember that you are part of an important In-Town neighborhood, and that your actions affect others.

The late night flights that buzz DV have got to stop! What ever happened to the voluntary curfew that no flights after 11pm? also, what's the deal with the late night pilot that rockets out over Drew Valley instead of going down Buford Hwy to a certain altitude then turn right? That was what FAA had issued orders for and agreed to! Enough is enough!

Especially at 1am, 2am, etc...! Would be great to get control over this?

Dobbins Air Force planes and larger aircrafts such as these SHOULD NOT fly out of smaller Peachtree Dekalb too.

I thought planes were about to crash into my house twice last week due to low flights and noise. Help!
