Two F/A-18 aircraft will conduct operations at LGB on Friday (9/13). We anticipate they will arrive Friday evening and depart Sunday (9/15) afternoon. Times are tentative and subject to change.

Military aircraft are exempt from noise regulations. However, the military has consistently demonstrated a desire to assist LGB in being a good neighbor and will follow standard noise abatement arrival and departure procedures, including modified arrival and departure flight profiles and minimum use of afterburners.

F/A-18 aircraft are noticeably louder than other aircraft and are easily heard in neighborhoods near LGB.
