[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there more that can be done to soundproof homes to make aircraft noise more tolerable? Could the government fund noise reduction measures in homes subject to high levels of airport noise?[/quote]

Are you saying people shouldn't be using their outdoor space and should always keep their windows shut? How is this a "solution"? Solution would entail distributing traffic so that every area gets a little bit, but no specific areas get all of it.  There is also tons of air traffic over NOVA.  And then there are large parts of DC that get none of it, apparently? Protected airspace isn't the explanation, because river paths are super close to the National Mall, which is also protected airspace.  If Planes can fly close to National Mall to the point that you can see them almost fly overhead when you are visiting monuments, then why can't some paths be positioned over DC areas while still protecting airspace over the VP residence?  Also some paths are utilized heavily on some days, or at some hours, this means that other paths are not utilized.  Can we do better? Nobody deserves to hear planes overhead for hours on end every day. [/quote]
