August 4th: Dangerous circles over campers at Horseneck Beach

Earlier today, aircraft N760BW was tracked flying as low as 800 feet above ground level over Horseneck Beach, where campers and beachgoers were present. That’s below what the FAA deems safe for flying over populated or recreational areas.

Why This Matters

  • Over crowded areas like beaches, neighborhoods, or parks: Planes must stay at least 1,000 feet above the highest nearby obstacle (this includes buildings, trees, or dunes)
  • Campers and beachgoers expect peace and safety—not loud, disruptive buzzes from low-flying planes.
