Not surprising that you are not sure, because you are not a pilot. To
pilots,
the rules and procedures are clear, and vector departures and arrivals may
route planes over the city.

If only things were so black and white.

Well, radar vectors are pretty cut and dried - you go where they say.
The arrivals are designed to avoid Paris, but they often vector them right up
to the line - With a 1nm tolerance in B-RNAV a good many of them will be over
the line. Departures often fly over Paris, but they are above 6500ft, where
there is no restriction.

I agree that airplane noise in that and most other cities is insignificaznt
compared with road traffic noise. . .
