Military jets over Palm Springs
The paper had a story about the loud military jets that have been flying over Palm Springs in increased numbers. It says: "Complaints about the military jet noise out of Palm Springs International Airport have grown so loud that city officials may ask federal officials to intervene. The Palm Springs City Council is expected to appoint two members to a subcommittee today to bolster efforts to help reduce noise at the airport. The council action comes after months of complaints by residents about the dramatic increase in military flights, many of them training missions, out of the small airport." Miss Penny Lane says: This weather has forced her to wear ear muffs so a little noise doesn't bother her.

"training missions" is a half truth. If all they wanted to do was "train" there is a base March AB on the other side of the mountain they would use. The real reason, it National Security... i.e. keeping jets in positions to intercept ;-). People should not complain so much about the 23 seconds of noise, those precious seconds of you life that are disturbed ensure the other precious years are actually good one. Economically as well as physical. yes the community receives money during this whole horrible noisy ordeal. People need to spend less time complaining and more time focusing on what they can do to help.
