Please stop these jets from frying the planet just for the convenience of the uber-rich

We must reduce pollution from fossil fuels—not INCREASE it!

The air traffic we put up with in North Lincoln is already too much. It’s info at to ask up to deal with any more.

Why do we need more private, luxury jets flying into Massachusetts? How does that help us meet our Green goals?

Having more private jets spewing more greenhouse gases into our atmosphere will certainly cause even more climate problems than we already have. It is also outrageous that anyone would think of putting so many noisy jets right next to Minuteman National Historical Park. A park that honors the birth of our nation and where people can see where the opening battles of the Revolutionary War took place.

Please protect our air quality. Expansion serves the few and hurts the masses

I see no reason why Hanscom airport, or any other airport, should encourage the use of luxury private jet planes! The ultra-wealthy need to be reminded that they and their children live on this planet, too, and that jet travel is exacerbating climate change, which is already wreaking disaster in much of the world.

This proposed expansion makes zero sense, unless you're a user of these aircraft. What percentage of MA residents come under this category?

This is an oligarch project, not a middle-class project.

Why should the public subsidize the entitled behavior of narcissistic rich people? Let them eat the cake of commercial air travel! No new hangars for private jets!!

Until jets can run on a carbon neutral fuel, there should be no expansion, especially of private jets which have an excessive carbon footprint per person. Encouraging this development is directly contrary to the states net zero by 2050 goals.

It is painful to realize that one private jet flight undoes all my efforts to curb ghg pollution.

Limiting air traffic is essential in an area already heavy with necessary air traffic from Hanscom's Air Force base, and Logan International airport in Boston
