Cessnas and other small prop planes are perfectly fine and I think they are quieter than a harley for example. I bet those planes are the vast majority of planes flown in that pic of the neighborhood. Once you put jets on things it can get annoying. Even small business jets are pretty loud for their size, not to mention commercial airliners coming and going. permalink fedilink source parent [–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 6 points 3 years ago As someone who lives near a highway I disagree.

The studies are usually with constant traffic noise (like neighbourhood to airports, main roads). permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] nyoooom@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago Not sure if there is a misunderstanding but I'm agreeing with you When I say the brain processes it, it means it does take some work and energy, although it might not bring it up to your conscious perception for you to react permalink fedilink source parent [–] Urbanfox@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago At the end of my in laws small 8mx8m garden is a freight train line, and honestly, you just don't hear it anymore once you're used to it. permalink fedilink source parent
