I rather enjoy the sound of light GA aircraft. But something tells me the original poster probably bought a house 2 miles from an airfield and feels entitled to silence anywhere in the country. You know what I hate? The sound of cars. The highway, the freeway, the road. I dont live under an overpass or anything, but it seems to me no matter how far I venture out, I can always hear the hum of vehicles in the distance over the sound of the wind in the trees. You know what else I hate? Artificial light. I'd probably have to trek 300 miles into the wilderness to get away from the night-time glow of the horizon you see from refineries, cities, highways, etc. You know, get out where it's truly dark, and you can see every star in the sky.
Do I complain about these things? NO. Because I choose to live in an area where they exist. I'll go build my log cabin in the mountains if I really want isolation.
The truth is, I really fail to believe airplanes are a nuisance to anyone who does not live very close to an airport. Can anybody actually hear a 172 flying at 3000 ft? Because I dont think anyone is buzzing you at 500 ft unless you live under the runway path.
