Port Hopes Moves Reduce Airport Noise

Port of Hood River Executive Director Michael McElwee says a couple of developments have hopefully helped to bring noise down at the Ken Jernstedt Airfield.  McElwee says one of those involved a tenant moving some pilot training operations to other locations.  In addition, voluntary “fly friendly” rules asking pilots to take steps to reduce noise were put in place.  McElwee says with the summer season arriving and airport use picking up, the Port will keep monitoring the situation.
