Gray letter: F-35 mission
The F-35 military jet for Boise is a terrible idea. I worked in the legal system in Los Angeles for 37 years. A homicide detective told me a good thing is one you would want existing right next to your home. With that in mind, airport director Rebecca Hupp and all other F-35 supporters need to move next to the airport. Come on down from the hills and enjoy all the forms of military jet pollution, especially the noise. The military jets invaded the Palm Springs-Coachella Valley international airport in California. The noise was unbearable both day and night. It took former Republican Congresswoman Mary Bono to curtail the jets and return quiet. Learn from others’ mistakes. The Treasure Valley is similar to the Coachella Valley. The military F-35 jet noise will destroy the peace of the valley, hills, river and canyons.
