[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other morning there was a steady stream of air traffic between 5 and 6 am (near Glen Echo). Usually it starts at 6am and is steady for 30-40 minutes. I was surprised it started at 5. [/quote] What’s steady in your experience? Is it 1-2 per minute? I looked up the hourly traffic update and it strikes me as undercounting the noise (the dB it shows it what you’re supposed to be hearing, but when I measure it’s always +10-20 dB from that), but I don’t know if it also somehow undercounts the traffic? According to the DCA monthly plane counts there are hundreds and hundreds of passenger and non passenger flights daily but the map makes it look very steady — relentless — but not as busy.[/quote]
