Along with your own thoughts and opposition to the F-35, here are some points you may want to make in a letter to Mr. Martin:
1. Since the possible bedding down of the F-35 would affect the Tucson community for more than 30 years, we need at least a of week of flyovers using the proposed flight path so that we can hear how loud it actually is.
2. A "tied-down" test is misleading and doesn't tell how loud the F-35 will be when it flys over the City.
3. We hear that the noise of the F-35 would spread to 4 times the area of the F-16 and would be twice as loud. Do you have a map showing the proposed noise contours?
4. Since live ordnance can't be loaded at TIA, how does the Air Force plan to handling the question of live ordnance at a municipal airport?
5. Why is Safford, San Carlos, and Bisbee included in this EIS when the F-35s are proposed to be assigned to TIA?___________________________________________________________________________________________ that AT LEAST 50% of the Tucson people are opposed to the city being destroyed by this.
