Subject: RE: Extremely low flying aircraft concern

Good afternoon, Vince...
The tower reports that Runway 26 has been in use all day today, so aircraft in the pattern would be traveling toward the east and beginning to descend when passing over your area, then turning south and finally to the west as they align with the runway for landing.  The tower reports two low approaches to Runway 8 this morning, but it is unlikely that either of those arrivals would account for the low aircraft you saw at 9:20 AM.

Please be assured that I will continue to press the area flight schools to respect our noise sensitive areas, and to teach our noise abatement procedures to their instructors and students.  I will be making a particular effort to reach out to the schools prior to the beginning of the fall semester.
Regards
Steven
