The angle of filming makes it look worse than it is......although you will hear the noise of them.....

[@dwmzmm]

Back in the 1960's I lived in Niceville, FL (near Eglin AFB, dad was in the military). The neighborhood we resided was right below where the military aircraft would come low overhead as they were making their final approach for landing. This went on literally 24/7. I didn't mind, enjoyed sitting out in the front yard to watch them fly over. Nearly all the types of aircraft the USAF were using at that time, you would see and hear them, loud and clear.

[@alanmacification]

I used to live under the landing path for Toronto. In the late 1950s til around 1970, the jets were very loud and if you were in a conversation, you just got in the habit of pausing and waiting for the jet to pass. My cousin lived right by the airport where it was worse. Thankfully the airport shut down at night. The jets today are so much quieter , you hardly notice them.

[@mds145]

How do people sleep there? Easy to answer: First, all videos of the landings have been taken during the day, while most of the people are supposed to be at their workplaces. Secondly Heathrow Airport is closed during later night. Thirdly, everyone who moved into these houses knew that there are the 2 runways of LHR behind these houses, as LHR was not built out of a surprise over night....

Back in the 1970's, I lived in downtown Toronto near the railway tracks.

At first I couldn't get any sleep, but after awhile you become so used to it that you don't notice the noise at all. I am sure it is the same with those living closed to Heathrow.

The prevailing wind direction at Heathrow is westerly/south-westerly, and the runways run east-west. In normal operations, take-offs and landings are from west to east. There is more housing on the western side of the airport; to the east there are mostly reservoirs and green space. This video shows a landing from the east - hence the houses. Anecdotally, and for what it's worth, much of the housing around Heathrow is occupied by airport workers. Night operations at Heathrow are strictly controlled.

Their helicopter landed in the parking lot we shared, and when it took off or landed it would shack the apartment building. It took me like a month to get use to it.
