As posted on Facebook @MCASMiramarCA: The Marine Corps Air Station Miramar would like to advise local residents of an increase in jet aircraft noise due to ongoing flight operations. These operations may extend into the evening and nighttime hours and could result in elevated noise levels in surrounding communities.
We understand the impact this may have and sincerely appreciate the continued support and understanding of our neighbors. These flights are essential to ensuring our pilots are fully trained and mission-ready. For inquiries about aircraft noise please contact us at: miramarmedia@usmc.mil
Semper Fidelis
