Planes are flying way too early in the morning. I can hear them. It’s ridiculous and I do not want them flying at 10:30 pm at night.

These flights are waking me up early every morning, helacopters have woken me up at 1 am. I think they are turning because of Lego Land. Small planes have been flying over the canyon behind my house for years. They only have to be 300 ft.

It’s started already… it seems like every 7min a plane is taking off. Almost unbearable. Unable to sit in our yard and hold a conversation. This is impossible. We signed up for a local, small plane airport and are being given another John Wayne! Something has to be done!

Hi, this is the result of the criminal "Strategic Plan" of the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority. Palomar airport is old and toxic. We need a new airport at MCAS. Yuma International Airport and Salt Lake City'a new airport share their airport with the military. San Diego County should follow their example. Move Palomar to MCAS. End of lawsuits and waste of taxpayers money. Thank You City of Carlsbad and CF4A.

Please stop these commercial flights. They disrupt our normally quiet neighborhoods and impact our health.

The county needs to stop overstepping in the matters at Carlsbad airport and respect the city of Carlsbad and north county residents… and the court order. What is happening is an outrage!

The blatant disregard for the recommended flight path endanger many homes and schools . In fact, in March 2026 , Palomar is now on FAA hot list for safety concerns as training flights routinely ignore the 1000 foot rule and fly right over schools too low. 5000 or more kids in danger. Don't say it's just NIMBY. I don't live anywhere near but can see it isn't right to enda

Amazing how Palomar Airport and the airlines are thumbing their noses at local residents and rules. It’s the new American (country) way, lead by Democrats, that rules do not need to be followed…

Carlsbad citizens voted against expanding access to commercial airlines at Palomar airport years ago. Recent expansions clearly go against both citizens' wishes and established laws.

The new jets noise is bad for us now in old Carlsbad. We were never in the flight path at 5 miles out.

Due to increase of activity and size of jets landing, I and my neighbors in flight path experience great deal pollution affecting our homes and health. We live in San Marcos with jet fuel, soot affecting us, from planes descending approaching runway. The planes are considerably way too low for comfort. Please stop the American Airlines and United Airlines and all other airline commercial flights from being allowed to land at this small airport.

As local Carlsbad homeowners, we oppose the pollution and noise pollution that would come from big jets at Paloma’s airport. Overnight flights should also not be allowed.

Stop the big planes. FAA says Carlsbad Airport, unsafe, and they would make it worse.

The Palomar Airport is unsafe for large aircraft especially an increase in number. Keep it small and safe. We live here.
