Narrative:

While in my backyard, I witnessed a PA-28R perform a buzz job. The aircraft approached the airport from the north paralleling the runway, descending under full power, passing over hangars, aircraft and vehicles. Initiating a pull up and 40-50 degree bank to the west. The arrow was approximately 150 ft, at maximum speed near or over the FBO when the pull up and turn were initiated. The aircraft then departed the area. However, I know it to be an aircraft used by the FBO here at monroe custer airport. (D92). I am a CFI-ia and happen to live at the south end of the airport and runway. We live here because we enjoy the airport and airplanes. However, we witness enough unsafe flying that we will now begin to make waves, initially with these forms and then to the FAA.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: LOW ALT BUZZING AT UNCTLED ARPT.

Narrative: WHILE IN MY BACKYARD, I WITNESSED A PA-28R PERFORM A BUZZ JOB. THE ACFT APCHED THE ARPT FROM THE N PARALLELING THE RWY, DSNDING UNDER FULL PWR, PASSING OVER HANGARS, ACFT AND VEHICLES. INITIATING A PULL UP AND 40-50 DEG BANK TO THE W. THE ARROW WAS APPROX 150 FT, AT MAX SPD NEAR OR OVER THE FBO WHEN THE PULL UP AND TURN WERE INITIATED. THE ACFT THEN DEPARTED THE AREA. HOWEVER, I KNOW IT TO BE AN ACFT USED BY THE FBO HERE AT MONROE CUSTER ARPT. (D92). I AM A CFI-IA AND HAPPEN TO LIVE AT THE S END OF THE ARPT AND RWY. WE LIVE HERE BECAUSE WE ENJOY THE ARPT AND AIRPLANES. HOWEVER, WE WITNESS ENOUGH UNSAFE FLYING THAT WE WILL NOW BEGIN TO MAKE WAVES, INITIALLY WITH THESE FORMS AND THEN TO THE FAA.
