The unconstitutional ‘taking’ of property by low-flying aircraft.

There can be no doubt that the expansion of aviation has greatly benefited the private, commercial, and military components of American society. It is equally beyond doubt, however, that this benefit has not been secured without corresponding disadvantages which, to some extent, have fallen upon a few individuals; specifically, those who own property in the vicinity of airports. The noise, vibration and possibility of crash which harass these persons are the inevitable by-products of the take-off and landing procedures followed by all fixed wing aircraft. With the advent of the jet aircraft, the discomfort and inconveniences suffered by them have become particularly acute.
