Private planes are enormous contributors to air pollution and noise. It is in our collective and individual interests to stop any expansion at Hanscom field for our health and that of our grandchildren and our planet.

We must stop growing private jet traffic. The harms to our shared environment, the public, health, and future generations far outweigh the benefits to a select few.

In case you think this is just wealthy people, I am a single mother renting in the area.

This project will increase the volume of toxic chemicals that are sprayed into the air. If you have a conscience, you will not allow the Hanscom Jet expansion project to proceed.

Unless the Hanscom expansion is restricted to all-electric jets, it is a bad idea economically and environmentally. I am a retired teacher and mom living in Concord MA.

This will directly and negatively affect the environment, and my family and three children. Rich people don’t need more places to land their private, gas-guzzling jets.

Planes are loud enough to damage hearing and stop all talking when they approach over our house.

These flights contribute significantly to global warming, there is no benefit to surrounding communities.

I agree that we should not be encouraging more private jet travel

Encouraging this increase in CO2 by expanding private jet capacity at Hanscom is OPPOSITE to the reductions in CO2 urged by the latest IPPC report.

Please do not let the expansion of private jet hangar space proceed at Hanscomb AFB. The amount of carbon emitted by these jets is obscene!

Not fair for the local communities to have to bear the brunt of more air and noise pollution so a few can have the convenience of their private jet use.

This is a setback for our fight against Climate Change. We need to have LESS private aircraft.

I live in the direct line of the runway and see small jets constantly throughout the day and night already. This expansion would impact me and my family, as well as my property drastically if larger and/or more aircraft were to be allowed.
