Tom Kasten and Kala discussed the TIPS meeting they attended on November 1, 2018. Discussion:
Tom Walsh shared that he received a complaint from a lady living on Frazier that a plane was making frequent passes above her home at 2:30am earlier in the week. Although she could not see the plane, she recognized the sound of the plane the next morning. Kala stated that it would be difficult to follow up on this complaint with Airgo due to the fact that it would be impossible to prove or assume who was actually flying in the middle of the night, plus individuals are allowed to fly at night and we can only hope they exercise common courtesy.
A motion was made by Tom Simpson and Seconded by John Denton to adjourn the meeting.
