Nav Canada and Transport Canada designate training areas and Dunrobin is within the Ottawa area's. As well Dunrobin is not far from Ottawa's navigation aid, Ottawa VOR (YOW). This too brings both light and larger aircraft to the area of Dunrobin.<br /><br />I will mention your commments to COPA Flight 8 members, but we are mostly licensed pilots and don't do much training. The flight schools at Ottawa, Carp and Rockcliffe are more likely where you should be directing you comments.<br /><br />You are welcome to attend COPA Flight 8 Meetings to make your views known to pilots. Our next meeting will be at Rockcliffe Airport on 22 September at 7:30 PM.Michael Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17881160865679740901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429311486394377221.post-67932327805691297082010-08-07T11:29:17.966-04:002010-08-07T11:29:17.966-04:00The training exercises of pilots in small planes i...The training exercises of pilots in small planes is driving me crazy. On a beautiful sunny day like today I would like to be able to enjoy my back yard in Dunrobin. Instead I am subject to non stop circling of planes over head all day long. Could you please remind your pilots to vary thier flight patterns and try to spread it out a little bit more so those on the ground can enjoy or weekends and properties.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429311486394377221.post-76886031173798495352010-06-10T09:22:08.355-04:002010-06-10T09:22:08.355-04:00That could be it, but also I believe it is a volum...That could be it, but also I believe it is a volume issue related to flight training activities in smaller aircraft, all lumped together as Cessnas.Michael Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17881160865679740901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429311486394377221.post-31458016102048367412010-06-09T23:17:28.919-04:002010-06-09T23:17:28.919-04:00The Cessna causing noise complaints was likely the...The Cessna causing noise complaints was likely the Caravan that operates from the north field. I once observed it doing a 180 turn low overhead Merivale High School and it made a heck of a racket! Not that I complained, but it really got my attention.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
