![]() Jeremy Lew wrote: I'm not defending the way these people are dealing with their issues, but the pratice area for the KBED-based flight school which is involved in these suits is 15-20 NM away from the airport. If that's "near", then it's practically impossible to live in eastern Massachusetts without being near three or four airports. It would be entirely unreasonable for prospective house buyers to consider that small plane noise might be a problem in this area. If anyone is interested, the practice area in question is NW of KBED, N of the Ft. Devens MOA. Yes the ironic thing is that the Fort Devens airfield (Moore Army Airfield, KAYE) would have made a lovely airport, especially for cargo operations, with excellent adjacent Rail and Freeway connections. The locals made sure this never happened when the Army Base closed. So now we have two large runways with X's all over them. (State police use one of the former runways for high speed driving training). With Moore field closed, the local airspace is available for a training area. |
