Pay attention chaps, read before you post!!!

It's clearly not an airpark read "property line".
and he tells us the distance read "60 feet".

Good luck Jay, sounds like an opportunity not to be missed.
I have friends that live under the flight path of 03 at FAJS , and they do
sleep at night!
Regards.

We find ourselves with the rare opportunity to purchase a home with a
property line just 60 feet from the centerline of a 2400 foot runway.

It's a beautiful home, with almost 2 acres of land. It's got everything

we
could want in a home, except for a hangar. (The hangar that comes with it
fits an ultralight...) We'd have to add a full-sized hangar.

As we were standing on the deck, facing the runway, watching the planes

come
and go, we started to wonder if the plane noise would eventually start to
grate on our nerves. If two people were ever made to live with their
plane, it's Mary and me -- but I thought it might be good to hear from

some
of you who have actually DONE it. Does the "music" of the engines turn

to
aggravation over time?

Can anyone fill in the gaps? What are the ups and downs of actually

living
at an airport?
