Not to mention that I'd bet you $10 that you'd be hard pressed to find a GA
airport that was built near a school. My experience has been that the

from the threshold.

This is the case where I fly, except that the airport is a lot older
than 30 years! More like 70.

The (modern) high school is about half a mile northeast of the
"threshold" of 02. It's a temptation to use it as a point to turn
base, but I usually resist.

Well. As a pilot I'm all for noise.
It's the sudden absense of engine noise that I'm against ! :-)
