Since OXC is a public-use airport, mandatory curfews and fines are prohibited by the 1990 Airport Noise and Capacity Act. Voluntary curfews can be implemented, but would be up to the discretion of the operator/pilot. For on-demand charter services, such as those based at OXC, voluntary curfews may not fit their business model, and therefore, compliance may be limited.
