[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's the big deal? You get used to it. I live under a flight path (Brookmont) and I'm listening to a plane right now. It's not ruining my quality of life. People around here worry way too much about flight paths.[/quote]

How many planes per minute do you hear all day long? It's incredibly disturbing, more so than the hum of the highway, which is more like white noise. I think it's the frequency that's making this so bad.  I can tolerate a plane or a train every now and then, even once every 10 min would be ok for a plane to fly overhead.  But 1-2 every single minute NON STOP, I cannot get used to this.  Especially since I wanted to escape to a quite place and hear sounds of nature.  I don't get bothered by construction noises, barking dogs, kids playing at a playground, even occasional sirens and helicopters. They go away, airplane traffic just never ceases whenever they have the days where every single plane is routed over our area. [/quote]

You sound seriously crazy OP. And backwards.

You have clearly never lived directly under a flight path. [/quote]

I live walking distance (maybe running distance) to National Airport. It's seriously no big deal.

Are you routinely directly under a flight path? It makes a big difference. I live near BWI and regularly tune out the airport noise.  However, certain weather conditions or runway repairs can change the normal flight patterns making planes take off or land directly over our house. Takeoff is the worst. You cannot tune this out.
