HELICOPTER NOISE
HELICOPTER NOISE
(OP)
To what governmental agency do I complain about helicopter noise, which is intrusive, disruptive and annoying.
I don't have a problem with helicopters--just their noise.
We have commercial airliners overhead frequently and they are not a serious noise problem.
If there is no Government agency which will help, is there
an organization which may be effective in remedying this problem?

Try the FAA. But don't hold your breath.

Be aware that if the noisey aircraft are flying within the legal confines of their respective airspace and following all the applicable rules, there's nothing you can legally do, aside from starting a grass-roots campaign to have the rules changed. If you bought a home near an airport, the sales-person should have mentioned that fact when you negotiated & signed your contract. Chances are that the total cost of your property was already adjusted downward to reflect the property's modified [read "actual"] market worth.
Also be aware that if you complain a lot, you will no doubt be labeled a "chronic complainer" or worse... and ultimately be ignored by those that could actually assist you. Many of these kinds of situations can degenerate into frivolous [?] lawsuits, and that's like wrestlin' with a pig: everyone involved gets dirty, but the pig really enjoys it.
