[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP thinks that airplanes should only fly over poor neighborhoods. [/quote]

It's not that they fly over poor neighborhoods, it's the fact that neighborhoods that are under the flight path with planes every minute become poor eventually.  airplane noise is a deterrent to live in the area and RE prices collapse in areas directly under the flight path.  It leads to disinvestment and deterioration and low prices.  It is the reason why you want airports not to close to dense residential areas, DCA seems to be the exception here and they do need to rethink this one steady line of planes coming always from one direction. It's far less disruptive if planes come from different directions giving people in each area a break from noise. And honestly, some areas directly by the airport had always been either uninhabited, full of commercial buildings, transit hubs, warehouses, etc,. residential RE was always the cheapest and most rundown, with dca being an exception.
