I do think that the demands of airport neighbors that airplanes make no

complaints
about noise are really just an excuse to make airplanes go away.

The NIMBY crowd around KBED complained about the noise of the
Shuttle America flights at first. Apparently someone noticed that
the aircraft used by Shuttle America flights are quieter than
the corporate jets and even some of the piston aircraft. But that
didn't stop the NIMBY crowd from opposing the commuter flights.
They merely "found" other reasons to oppose the use of KBED for
scheduled flights.
