The Franklin Police Department wants to advise residents that increased small aircraft traffic over the area is expected while an Air Combat USA event takes place, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Planes will be taking off and landing at Nashville’s John Tune Airport, and performing simulated combat maneuvers, at between 3,000 and 6,000 feet above the south Franklin and Thompson’s Station area. This notice is being given to prevent undue citizen concern, and unnecessary calls to area 9-1-1 centers. Questions regarding the event or flights should be directed here.
