[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Regan should be closed IMO. Ultra fine particles dumping all over the city is giving us all a higher risk of cancer.  [/quote]

Agree. Except it’s not all over the city, is it? It’s very well concentrated in a tight corridor. There’s some historic justice in the areas closer to and EOTP not being affected.

Also there are massive no fly zones — draw large circles around the VP residence, the White House. And then there’s no need to fly over adjacent neighborhoods since you want to be closer to the river. So most of the city is fine.[/quote]

Wind carries it all over. [/quote]

Planes fly right over National Mall.  Not sure what you are talking about.  I bet you can hear them from the White House.  It's close enough.  Some fly right over the memorials.  But they aren't one after another over DC.  So even for areas like around National Mall and Georgetown you can hear and see planes pretty low, but they aren't flying every minute for hours on end.  This is what happens above some further out suburban area that are flight paths, they send the planes in a line one after another  and they turn from the river over specific areas (in VA that would be around GF and Mclean and also over Arlington and FC I believe).  If you are in the turn-flight path it really sucks because noise lingers as you are surrounded by the flight path (semi circle) and they fly frequently enough, so noise doesn't abate at all for hours.  Every minute you can see the plane.  I didn't observe this in DC. [/quote]

And the Palisades and Foxhall. It’s true. Not “further out suburban areas”[/quote]
