[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on which way the planes are flying. In our neighborhood, the south flow approach generates a lot of noise while the north flow departure generates less noise here. For us, the noise is bothersome and annoying at times, but we live in a relatively new build home with good insulation and very high end windows, which attenuates the noise quite a bit, but not completely. (I just heard an approach while having a quiet coffee in my living room, which was mildly annoying, for example.). It mostly hampers our ability to enjoy our outdoor spaces, but we do have to use white noise machines while sleeping because the occasional post-midnight arrival will wake you up if you don’t have something to cover it. If you live in an older home with minimal sound attenuation, it would be terrible, IMO. They are supposedly making adjustments to the approach procedure that should help. We will see. There is a lengthy backstory as to how we got to where we are, which only the affected people likely care about.[/quote] Thank you for this very fair and accurate description imo[/quote]
