Isn't that amazing? (and sad) All I can think is "I know I bought this house that is so close to the airport I can walk to it, but gee, it sure is noisy. I think I'll complain!"
Of course, I'm not too happy with my own realtor right now, as we were promised some land near us was "open space", never to be built on. Three years into this house, and they're putting up a new subdivision between us and the highway. I don't really care about my view of the highway getting obscured, of course, but if I lose one inch of foothills viewing, I'll be crabby :) And then I'll get over it, I suppose. But it does make me think evil thoughts in the direction of our realtor.
last, re: airports -- you know Denver's new airport (DIA, short for "done in a while", "done in August" -- it was WAY behind schedule, thank you Federico Pena)? The one thing they did right on it was putting it out in the middle of nowhere. And I do mean nowhere. You turn on to the road that takes you there, and then you're still 10 miles away from it! But hopefully no one will complain about airport noise. We hope :)
