[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]they are overblown. If you think it's an issue, just move. I don't understand why you people think you have a position here? You live in a dense area with a nearby airport...stop complaining about something that is in your control. New windows, better insulation, upgrade your home or move. [/quote] You can't escape unless you move out of DC metro altogether. There area 2 major airports and one is smack in the middle of what became a very densely populated collection of urban and suburban communities (DC, MD, VA). Flight paths change depending on who is lobbying and even if you aren't in a flight path today, you can be tomorrow or vice versa. Also paths change depending on weather/wind. So, visiting the area when you are buying the house and sitting there for 1 hour on a given day doesn't give you accurate picture of the noise pattern you may encounter living there full time. Stop being snobby if you happen to be lucky now. It's a big issue for a lot of communities and for everyone who isn't a hermit locked up in their house listening to headphones or a TV with closed windows or not spending much time at home. [/quote]
