Aircraft carrier-based flight training for aircraft stationed at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island is scheduled to occur in the late morning to early evening Monday through Thursday, Jan. 23-26 and the morning to afternoon Friday, Jan. 27 at Ault Field.
No Field Carrier Landing Practice operations are scheduled to occur at the Outlying Field in Coupeville.
People living in local communities should remain aware that the aforementioned operations are not the only operations out of NAS Whidbey Island, particularly at Ault Field, which is a 24-hour-a-day operational facility. There are many other training evolutions that people may hear. However the aircraft carrier flight training operations are types of operations that involve lower altitude flight training in close vicinity to the airfield.
Both runways at Ault Field are now open. The base will make every effort to let the community know if there are additions to published schedules.
Comments, including noise complaints, can be directed to NAS Whidbey Island’s comment line at 360-257-6665, or to comments.NASWI@navy.mil
