I love anything coming over my house, apart from maybe the police helicopter at 4 in the morning :P

Wish I had more fast jets ;P

.mic


The police helicopter getting louder and lower would give me cause to run outdoors in my bathrobe, or underwear, at 4 AM. I live under the left leg to our local airport and I love it! There is an air show at the end of August, I can sit on my deck and watch the aircraft in the pattern.  ;)

I see large commercial jets and Airforce Tankers from my apartment, but they aren't low at all, so they don't bother me.

I do see a fair amount of general aviation aircraft and helicoptors from my apartment, but they aren't too close or annoying at all. Beautifull background music to my ears that gives me a smile... :)

The loudest aircraft I ever heard from my apartment was a PBY that was fighting a wildfire that was raging only a couple miles from my apartment. It flew over low and loud right over the apartment, and was most welcome... 8-)

It's nice and quiet where I live. My girlfriend lives close to KPBI, but you really can't hear the jets on approach from where she lives.

Helicopters: They don't fly, they're just so annoyingly loud the Earth repels them. ;D

;D

My house is about 200 metres from the flightpath into Wattisham and we regularly get Very low Apaches flying over, after a while i don't even notice it. I was in North Norfolk last week and there Were F-15s and Tornados flying all day - it was Great...
