As observed by residents north of DCA, the frequency of flights overhead appears to have increased.  The increased flights do no reflect more overall DCA air traffic, but rather the result of decisions by FAA operations to overuse northbound at 65% northbound versus 35% south.

Since Labor Day is has been North flow 100%, south flow ZERO. I was told by the airport that planes will depart North if the winds are blowing North, East, West, or no winds. Only chance of Southern flow is if the winds are blowing South. No way is it 65/35 - I wish it was. For much of the year it is 85 to 100 North. [/quote]

Why don't you contact your representatives on the Working Group and ask them to do something about it. The Potomac representatives on the Working Group  constantly cry about too many south flow operations during those quarterly meetings at the airport. The rest of them from communities north of the airport seem too afraid to speak up. In fact the FAA seems to be under the impression that this is what everybody prefers. It was clear at the last meeting.

The fact that planes take off to the north in east/west/no wind situations is totally random. The FAA states that they do it because this is what pilots prefer. It does not have to be this way.
