Aircraft Noise Issues

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has procedures to respond to the public about aircraft noise questions or complaints within the United States. You can find information below to contact an FAA official if you have a question, concern, or complaint:

• Report noise associated with an airport, concerns about wildlife disturbances, or get information about ongoing noise abatement studies and FAA’s sound insulation program
• Report noise not associated with an airport or civil helicopter noise
• Report a safety or noise issue caused by low flying aircraft

If you think FAA officials are not responsive to your inquiry, you can contact FAA’s Aviation Noise Ombudsman. The Noise Ombudsman serves as a public liaison for issues about aircraft noise questions or complaints.
