I grew up 10 miles from an airport and experienced *more* noise, and never heard people complain about it.
I really don't get the problem. And like I said, the planes go directly over my house.
What I do notice is that I sit on the runway at Logan much less than I used to 10 or 12 years ago, and don't spend as much time circling around the airport before landing, either. I'll take extra noise as a fair trade-off to that. On top of that, the airport is easier to get to than it used to be. What's not to like?
