Constant Plane Noise This Morning

[amy-s1.livejournal.com]

Let me say this first before you call me a whiner - watch the planes on this map for this morning of Friday 12/11: http://www4.passur.com/bos.html

You can replay any point in time with the menu bar at the top, you can even speed it up to 10X. Or you can watch "live" with a 10 minute delay.

Now, if those green planes dont go right over where you live, dont call the rest of us whiners. If they do go right over you, you know what I am talking about. My 5 month old daughter is constantly woken up by these planes and they can rattle the house.

Watch the flow of the planes coming off of runway 33L (the long one that points straight at Chelsea). The vast majority of them bank left and come straight over Davis Square almost every time. How about a little distribution over Harvard Sq, West Cambridge, etc?? Not to mention winds this morning are from the W/SW, not the Northwest.

Now, lets log complaints here: http://www.massport.com/logan/airpo_noise_compl.html

You just choose not to move and choose to complain

I like where I live, and I wasn't complaining, sorry you heard that. I was describing the problem I had, some of the sources of it, and what I did to deal with it. Where was the complaining in that? I was making suggestions that might prove useful to the op's daughter.

Guilded life? No, I don't believe I said that. I said you are unusually empowered for a woman--single women who own their own single family house, particularly in this area, are still the minority. I don't think it is an advantage to be a woman, either; I said you were unusually empowered *especially* for a woman, since I think being a woman is generally an economic *dis*advantage. I am now wondering how closely you read what I wrote.

thus I had to Deal even if I couldn't.

If you think that is something that everyone can do in every situation, you are sadly mistaken. I'm sorry it was painful for you, and I am sorry you were ignored. I don't like ignoring people when they ask for help, which is why I made the suggestions that you criticized in the first place.
