About Fair Skies Nation:

The mission of Fair Skies Nation is to raise awareness of adverse health and environmental impacts caused by concentrated aircraft take-offs and landings and to promote fair and equitable air traffic solutions to ameliorate such adverse impacts.

Fair Skies Nation is a 501C4 non-profit, formed as a result of combining grassroots organizations in Milton, MA. The founding group quickly realized that many other communities surrounding Logan Airport as well as other airports throughout our nation are struggling with the same issues: pollution, stress, loss of sleep, and general decreased quality of life and enjoyment of property due to the implementation of satellite-based NextGen paths. Fair Skies Nation was formed to organize and advocate for fair distribution of flight paths over our nation’s skies. Learn more at www.fairskiesnation.com.
