Yep F-35 is louder.
for a few seconds a day, a several times a day,,, whenever. I can handle that.

What I can’t handle is the INCREASED ambulance (and police) sirens coming down my street.

I had no idea the hospital would actually expand and increase ‘their business’ when I bought a house near the hospital.

See ?

All of the comparisons are from f-16,f-15 to the f-35. Here is a great noise study from Elgin airforce base..

http://www.valp.org/govt/media/webb-pp-pres.ppt you will need to donwload and open….

The issue of noise is going to be very real and completely disregarded by proponents. In some research that helped explain why it is so loud, is comparing the thrust. The f-35 at imtermediate throttle has the same rating as the f-16 at full afterburner. What this means is that the f-35 is probably as loud taxiing around the runway, as the f-16 is at take off. This is what I experienced in Las Vegas. Each time there are “transient” f-16 and f-15 at the airport, people notice and comment. You won’t be able to ignore the f-35.

They are masters of leaving no fingerprints.

This one is pretty good, read the description for how it was measured.

Others seem more subjective. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bbFRh3afLA

Has anyone done a property value study? In AZ, it was estimated to avg 17% decline. This could be a huge hit to local taxing districts.

Don’t take a stand, don’t step on any toes, hopefully the issue will go away and everyone will forget by next election.

Dave, try again and demand each of the elected trustees take a stand. Yea or nay.

Heck they even have a website where they could put it writing. But alas, there’s only short bios that amount to style over substance.

Link:

http://www.boiseschools.org/our_district/board_of_trustees/trustees_and_superintendency/

While we’re at it. BSD recently change their website and it’s, well, style over substance. It’s horrible. Who approves this stuff. I call the new look the Pinterest look with giant pictures and difficult navigation.

Dave, can you FOIA to determine how much they spent on redesigning the website?

Meanwhile, the school’s fence along Whitewater Parkway adjacent Whittier Elem. is all full of weeds and leaves. Still no sidewalk on Jefferson for 200′ adjacent Whittier.

EDITOR NOTE–We did suggest a broader response to include Board members. This is what we got. We welcome anything you are able to get through your contact and request of BSD.

Folks,,,We know how loud they are. A-10’s 24000 lbs of thrust. F-35’s 40000 lbs of thrust. Simple math.

EDITOR NOTE–There may even be a multiplayer in that simple math. Anyone with knowledge and FACTS please help out on the noise issue. Everything we have seen claims the F-35 is much more than twice as noisy as the A-10.
