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

"If you physically can't sleep because you live too close to plane/bus/road noise, then perhaps you might want to consider moving to where there is none of the above. "


The problem is, there isn't anywhere else in Boston to live that is cool where I can have a house and a yard. This is, in my opinion, the only cool urban neighborhood in Boston. I've lived all over - Sydney, San Fran, NYC, and Amsterdam and got kinda spoiled to the point where the rest of Boston just looks so lame. and NO I CANT MOVE I need to stay in Boston for work and family reasons, and my single family house with a yard is on a very quiet tree lined street a few block from Porter and Davis. No road noise, no buses. I just hate the planes that increased significantly AFTER I moved here.
