I SUPPORT NO big commercial jets, NO low-flying noisy and polluting planes over homes and schools, and NO all-night air freight!
Big Commercial jets LEAD TO all-night freight. Palomar has NO quiet hours, and NO flight path limits, so cargo jets could fly over our homes at 2 a.m.
We need LOCAL CONTROL. Let’s keep Palomar small, SAFE, community-focused, and friendly.

No big commercial jets. The airport has done absolutely nothing to alter the noise and air pollution coming from the airport. Jets fly all hours of the night and do not follow any type of quiet hours. We need local control of this airport.
Local airport is great--but if we don't push back and assert our legal rights, commercial interests will run us over. Enforced flight curfews, and flight path redirection to reduce noise levels and crash dangers will allow us all to coexist in a reasonable manner.
I don’t live on CLD flight path yet the commercial & private jets fly north at the AH lagoon at a low altitude which shows their disregard of the community & CLD’s inability to enforce regulations. More jets will make the issue worse. No to more jets at CLD
I live in the flight path and strongly oppose all expansion efforts at Palomar Airport. My safety and quality of life are already negatively impacted by airport expansion operations that overstep Carlsbad community airport controls.
The County needs to adopt and enforce mandatory noise abatement procedures for Palomar Airport. The County has not enforced the voluntary noise abatement procedures in the last 10-15 years and air traffic, esp. jet air traffic is increasing.
39 year United Line check airman, retired with 3 years as a FAA Primary Operations Inspector, grew up here, started my career flying out of Palomar Airport in 75, I know the traffic patterns here, the FARs, what ATC requires, flown thousands of noise abatement procedures. And this county mandate over the city of Carlsbad is wrong. It is the cart before the horse! The noise is un bearable from these commercial aircraft flying out of General Aviation McClellan (Palomar) Stupid move by Desmond.

I have lived near the airport for 10 years and the airplane noise is significantly worse. We are awaken before 6 am by large airplanes and the noise goes on till well after 10. It’s unacceptable that the impact on the community is being ignored!!!
