There has been a substantial increase in noticeable noise from low flying aircraft that are now traversing over Redwood City, Atherton, Menlo Park, Palo Alto and other nearby neighborhoods.  The increased noise is mostly the result of new flights from a startup company called Surf Air that has initiated commercial operations into and out of San Carlos Airport (KSQL).  

After receiving funding of $65 million, Surf Air has been expanding services and will have up to 21 scheduled arrivals into KSQL.  This is a substantial increase in service from the original 7 flights when Surf Air first began flying into KSQL.  

That means the current approach corridor, as approved by the FAA, will see a significant increase in noisy flights over neighborhoods in Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Atherton and Redwood City.  

This also means a substantial increase in departure noise for Redwood Shores, Redwood City, Atherton and Menlo Park.

Many of the affected neighborhoods are located near the Middlefield Road corridor.  In addition, these aircraft fly over or near Encinal Elementary, Walter Hays Elementary and Menlo Atherton High School.  

If you find the noise objectionable, OR

if you are concerned about the negative impact on your property’s value, OR

if you are concerned about potential accidents due to aircraft flying over our homes and schools,

then please indicate your objection to Surf Air's flight path into San Carlos airport by signing this petition.

Thank you for your participation and please reach out to your neighbors to get them involved.
