After the annual parades that the Ecuadorian Air Force performed to commemorate its creation, called attention to all the negative and harmful comments, For them I consider that aviation should be culture in Ecuador.
It shouldn't just be culture, but also, a custom, something from every day and that all Ecuadorians learn, let's enjoy and be proud.
During the days that the training sessions lasted FAE aircraft in Quito and the day of the official ceremony, It was surprising to see so many negative comments that happen for not having an aeronautical culture.
Say that comments are out of place or ignorant, is to disqualify and not respect the opinion of others, more than anything, because these comments come from total ignorance about the airline industry.
This ignorance happens in an inexplicable way, We are a small country and we live in most cities with an airport in the middle of them.
Having lived our entire lives with airplanes passing day and night overhead, comments that seek to discredit the activities of an institution that last no more than 3 total hours of overflights.
Even, was questioned safety of operations of these flights, something that cannot be discussed, above all, for what is at stake as the image of the institution and security of citizens.
Planes fly low, yes within the parameters of aeronautical regulation, they make noise, Yes, but in other countries these activities are appreciated and are a source of joy – pride among the entire society and that brings everyone together under the same umbrella.
The annoyances that noise can cause are understood., but today, there are buses and taxis honking, gas trucks and cars with their annoying music at all times, alarms, constructions and more, but the people of that, He doesn't complain and let's not talk about New Years with the waitresses and fireworks for hours and days.…
Ecuador must continue to grow in its aeronautical culture, airlines are responsible for this, Armed forces, you, me and everyone.
Definitely, there is a lack of dissemination of these events and promoting Air Festivals of the FAE, which is the only institution that does something of this type in Ecuador (There are also parades for various military celebrations during the year such as the 24 of May) and tries to bring the exciting world of aviation to the entire society.
We must grow in aerial culture, more airlines, more events like shows and even in something, spotter events, they help a lot.
The 100 years of the FAE could have been much "noisier", but economic and world conditions prevented it, and such an important event cannot be judged or criticized, given its importance as a historical milestone in our history.
Let's continue improving as a society, let's leave the complaints behind, that there are much more important issues than the noise of airplanes flying for minutes over a city.

The last celebration of the independence day of France, England and the US were carried out on densely populated cities. In these countries considered developed, They are the elderly, much more than his young people, those who applaud and salute their Armed Forces, because they know and recognize that despite everything and above all, They are the fundamental pillar on which a true democracy is based.
Unfortunately, the Ecuadorian cultural level (not only on these topics) is minimal, Although the truth hurts, it is like that, Most of them only serve to criticize without at least contributing something positive to the country.. For now, all that remains is to ignore these comments and educate the little ones so that in the future our society evolves for the better.. Thank you for your contribution with this page Nicolás, I have been following you for a few months and your articles are very interesting.. Greetings from a 04 from Finland.
Thanks for your comment Johnny..
Not caring about old people, of people vulnerable to noise is part of the legislation and rights of citizens in developed countries. Latin America in general and not even Chile has yet reached that level of development.
As long as there are fireworks…
That is why I make it clear in highly developed countries, Chile can be said but it does not reach the level of European noise restriction legislation as here in London. Fireworks are not the same as supersonic aircraft engines
Debatable, since in duration it is much longer, It's just a New Year's thing in Ecuador, there if they don't complain.
I agree with many aspects related to this typical event in terms of aviation and its culture., What I firmly disagree with is that this type of activity takes place in the middle of the city..
In Ecuador, being a developing country, there are not sufficient legal standards and regulations regarding levels of environmental pollution. (including excessive noise) that affects elderly people or people with stress problems added to business informality. This never happens in developed countries., There are always airfields for this type of air shows.
Years ago in Guayaquil a Kfir accident occurred in an urbanized area.
Not in all countries, watch FIDAE in Santiago, although it is not in the middle of the urban area, airplanes in their holding patterns fly over highly populated spaces.
The noise is for a very short time, I don't see people complaining about the fireworks that are heard in the city all year round and let's not even talk about New Year's, no one cares about the elderly as the example you gave.
Excellent Article and a Great Truth. People Have to Have Better Knowledge and Culture Before They Give Opinions and Say So Much Nonsense .
Completely!
Unfortunately, the cultural level of many people means that they only know how to criticize and not appreciate their environment., Do not enjoy good times if you don't always look for the "but" of everything, I still have faith in people and I hope that little by little they will change their mentality., Until then, there is nothing left but to tolerate negative comments and so on.…
That's how it is 2 years to the centenary!! I hope to be at the events for that date.
Luck and success, very good post.
Greetings
Thanks for your comment Danny.! On 2 years will be very good.
