No I don't live near an airport, I'm not that stupid. Everybody has choices in life, one of mine is not to live near an airport and especially not to live under the flightpath.

The noise is a pain in the a*se, but when I have stayed in Hounslow and other places affected by noise, I found I got used to it quickly.

I was brought up in central London, so I am fairly used to quite a high constant noise level. At the time it didn't bother me, now I don't like it. So I live out in the country. Cheaper house prices, less noise and MUCH better air quality.

If you knew of the noise problem before you moved there, then as 18 wheeler put it, tough s**t. If you moved there before the airport was built, then bad luck, but you will have been recompensed by the Airport at sometime for the inconveinence.
