I thought I was the only one that enjoys getting awoken in the middle of the night

This is getting ridiculous, living on the 6th floor I can feel the sound waves! Isn't this extreme noise a a lawsuit waiting to happen? I complained numerous times but I doubt that does anything. We need to do something about this..

hi,

I'm working on a story about the persistent noise from planes, a topic i've written about a few times before. this time i'd like to shoot a video that shows how loud and frequent (and early!) this noise is, which i will need your help with.

if anyone is interested (and comfortable) with letting me record from their apartments or homes, please reach out. i can come as early or as late as possible - it will probably be more compelling to show how early the plane noise begins.

thank you,

Live on 6th floor @83rd street & 35th. Can see the planes landing and taking off, it's quite a spectacle. On the noise front, when they land we don't hear anything, when they take off it's noticeable but largely bearable. No sound wave or apt shaking here. My guess is that this an issue mainly for people living in early 70s street.

The runways at LaGuardia are right next to water. Something I don't understand is why don't the planes fly into the section where there's water and then once it reaches a particular altitude to then start moving towards the intended direction or route. Then, wouldn't most of the airplane noise issue be moot for almost everyone?

I'm not an expert but I would guess because $$$$, this way they probably can squeeze more flights in and out

Because there's water to the north of LGA, but planes take off and land into the wind, so sometimes they have to take off south. And we are VERY close to the airport. It's not money but physics.

Runway 13/31 will be closed on Saturday (according to WebTrak), and that's bad news for JH.

Is anyone keeping track of how many Saturdays it has been during the past couple of months?
