Why did you buy near an airport? Or wasn't it there when you bought the
house?

I have to admit to feeling little sympathy to people who bought houses in
the new development that's not far from my local airport, but there is one
guy I do feel a little sorry for. There's an ageing farmhouse right on the
centreline of the main runway, which was almost certainly there before the
airport and which, being a farmhouse, may well have been handed down through
the generations (so the "why did you buy" question doesn't apply). I think
of the owner every time I go over it at 500 feet on finals ...
