Default airplane noise can impair young students

Note to self: If there is an airport next door to the house I'm thinking
about buying, it's MY FAULT if I buy the house and don't like airplane
noise.


I live under Sandy River Arrival for PDX 28L and 28R...that's TWO
international airport runways also featuring a squadron of F-15s, and the
approach to Troutdale, so I have aircraft over my house all day. The PDX
heavies and F-15s lower their gear and throttle up about right over my
house. It's so damned loud I can't hear the neighbors' dogs barking.

Glorious! (But, to be fair, there were no jets, Arrivals or runways 28L
and 28R when my house was built. C'est la vie say the old folks...)
