Within the last four months, there have been two small plane crashes near the Oceanside Airport, renewing questions about safety at the non-towered facility and a proposed mega-development nearby that would add attractions, commercial space and hundreds of housing units.
Friday’s plane crash killed one person and critically injured another. It was the second small plane crash near SR-76 and Foussat Road since February.
Before it reaches the commission, the Federal Aviation Administration and the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority must formally evaluate the proposal. “As part of the ongoing planning process to transform this site, OceanKAMP has already undergone significant public review and will be designed to meet all Federal Aviation Administration safety standards,” he added.
“The city owes it to the residents of Oceanside to take a better look and potentially call GoJump to a hearing and find out what they're doing. Are they endangering some of the neighborhoods around here?” said Andrioff, who is running for City Council.The crashes are renewing focus on the airport itself, which some residents see as a roadblock to addressing Oceanside’s housing and affordability issues. There have been calls to shut down the airport for years.
“Our hearts go out to the families of those hurt and killed in the two recent aviation accidents near Oceanside Municipal Airport,” said spokeswoman Sabrina LoPiccolo.
