F-35 Fighter Jet Noise Unbearable In Vermont
Posted: September 24, 2013

Conflicting statements have been issued by a top military official regarding F-35 fighter jets which will be based with the Vermont Air National Guard.

Captain Haas then went back on his earlier comments saying that pilots at Eglin are in fact only using their afterburners about five percent of the time on the F-35 fighter jets: “I left you an incorrect impression,” he said. “I was talking about military aircraft in general.”

When he was confronted about the fact that just a day earlier he had said the afterburners would be used in general he said: “I was wrong when I gave you that information.”

It is obvious why the local residents are up-in-arms. Rosanne Greco, a council member in South Burlington said that the Haas’ recent contradictory comments are typical of the military when it comes to the issue of noise pollution.
