NAVAL AIR STATION WHIDBEY ISLAND, Wash. – The aircraft carrier-based flight training window announcement that is sent out each week is temporarily suspended due to ongoing global military operations and heightened operational security.
Navy authorities believe this is a prudent measure for the safety of its aircrew and the local community. This is not in response to a specific threat.
Comments, including noise complaints can be directed to NAS Whidbey Island’s comment line at (360) 257-6665 or written in an email to NASWI_Noise_Comments@us.navy.mil.
Comments regarding flight operations should note the time an event occurred, where exactly the event occurred and as much detail as possible about what was seen. We also ask that people leave their contact information for our tracking purposes. All other questions can be directed to NAS Whidbey Island Public Affairs Office at (360) 257-2286.
The Navy’s OLF at Coupeville is a critical national security asset that provides essential training for Navy pilots based at NAS Whidbey Island to conduct safe and effective aircraft carrier flight operations around the world.
