2. Break out the ear plugs, Wrigleyville: there is nothing anyone can do about all the helicopters and planes flying over the stadium during the Cubs postseason run, which continues Wednesday night — or any other time of year.
So says the FAA, which regulates aircraft but says it can't do anything about the noise.
“Thank you for contacting us to express your concern over the helicopter traffic in the area around Wrigley Field,” reads an email sent Wednesday morning to a resident who complained about the noise at 11 p.m. Tuesday during the Cubs-Dodgers game. “Unfortunately, the FAA cannot prevent helicopters from flying in the area if operated in a safe manner.”
That was harsh news to the resident, who compared the FAA’s response to the government saying “tough sh--.”
“I understand the pros and cons of living near Wrigley, but helicopters at all hours is not what I signed up for,” said the resident, who asked not to be named. “I live 5 blocks west of Wrigley and it’s so loud — I can’t imagine what it’s like for residents who live closer.”
