[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Palisades is to be avoided.[/quote] I would say that Palisades used to be worse than the communities in Bethesda north of Palisades including Brookmont, GEH, Westmoreland Hills or Sumner. However, after the change in the westerly flight path for departures in 2021 the noise in Bethesda became much worse. We were told that the representatives from the Palisades supported and voted for this change. If this was such as great idea to push the flight path towards the communities in Bethesda why wouldn't Palisades push the same flight path closer to its neighborhood i.e. "over the river"? [/quote] This is nonsense. Have a look at any flight tracking app - FlightRadar24, Flight Aware etc. - when planes are departing to the north and you can see the route and the altitude along the route. Departing traffic FLIES OVER the Palisades / Foxhall but never flies over Bethesda. Moreover, the traffic is much lower - and therefore much noisier - while it is adjacent to the Palisades than it is when it reaches the portion of the river west of Bethesda. Stop it with this beggar-thy-neighbor codswallop.[/quote]
