where to see routes on internet?

May be, I am just guessing here, does it have an influence on
the amount one pays for rent? for some people, such short term
goals do matter a great deal.

It might. But if you go to look at a place to rent and the
high water mark is at the second floor, you should look
elsewhere.

Thanks Stache - I'll be calling that # to get info.

I think part of my problem here is that we're sort of on a bluff near
the water, so planes that are well above 1,000 feet over the water are
kinda low when they go over our house, and the reason I'm thinking
we're on some kind of regular route is both the frequency with which
planes pass over, and the fact that I can often look straight up thru
my kitchen skylight and see the plane zip past (!!!).

Then tell the females in your house to quit sunbathing in the nude...

Well I'm learning a lot here, and now based on the replies, I'm
starting to wonder if there's a small plane airline that's ferrying
passengers from Seattle to the Island, and if those pilots stick to a
routine route? Eh just another crackpot theory :^)

But I can say that of the 14 different homes I've lived in so far, this
has the most close planes going over. Wait a minute - I lived next to a
military air base in laguna Hills, Ca. once and those close fighter
jets were actually a bit peskier. :^o

A detail I left out earlier is that I create audio content for a
living. Out of the home. So I'm absolutely way more sensitive to the
pesky noises outside than the average person, no doubt about it.

Was that just prior to Operation Desert Storm? I was living near the
405/5 wye then, and those nighttime military aircraft operations at El
Toro were remarkably noisy. Perhaps that's the place to live now that
the air base has been closed. There are only two airports (not
counting heliports) civil or military left in Orange County anymore;
Fountain Valley, Seal Beach, Newport Beach, Dana Point, Huntington
Beach, El Toro and Tustin have all been closed.

It's possible. I'm not from that area, but I've been there. There are many
little charter operations (even Seaplane based) that do charters, tours,
etc...

Well, as I mentioned...you are basically on a direct line between Arlington
Airport and the San Juan Islands. However, there's no commercial scheduled
service out of Arlington, as far as I know. You are definitly not on any
route from Seattle to the San Juans. Even Seattle-to-Bellingham flights are
unlikely to pass over your house.

Without having specific data (log of each flight during the day, over a week
or so, with at least the type of airplane, if not N-number) it's impossible
to say for sure. But I suspect that there's no regular route over your
house, and that you're just experiencing normal, random air traffic.

Yes, I can see how airplane traffic would cause a problem for that.
Hopefully the problem is mainly one of distraction. I can't imagine trying
to actually record clean audio in a setting as relatively uncontrolled as a
residential home.

On the bright side, it is not only possible, but even feasible, to create a
relatively sound-proof environment, even in a residential home. It's
basically a remodel, with the associated costs of course. But when you're
dealing with your livelihood, you may find it a worthwhile effort and
expense. And if you *are* doing actual recording, I'd think it'd be *well*
worth it.

Anyway, good luck finding your aircraft-free environment. Hopefully the
resources offered here do help.
