napaguy99 0 #3 May 27, 2004 Yeah give it a few days. I'm living on a Naval Air Base now. At first I thought having planes flying overhead would be cool, but after a few short days it started to get annoying. Waking up to jets every morning isn't so cool.

Beerlight 0 #4 May 27, 2004 QuoteWaking up to jets every morning isn't so cool. Excuuuuse me?!!!!! Your profile says your a student pilot. You should rejoice at waking up to loud jet noise and the smell of Jet-A fumes wafting in the cool morning air..... It is bliss, pure freakin bliss.....

misskriss 0 #5 May 27, 2004 QuoteWaking up to jets every morning isn't so cool. Pretty soon you won't even notice it. I lived on Navy Bases (in order--Miramar, Pensacola, Oceana) for years and at first the jets turning at 5am were bothersome. After awhile though I didn't even notice it... I remember my mom visiting and asking how I could sleep with the constant Jet noise. I asked her, "What jet noise..?"
