Never been to an air show. Always wanted to see the Blue Angels or Thunderbirds. Would love to fly with one but I know that will never happen. But there are sites where I can fly virtually. So I will stick to that. I lived about 5 miles from Atlanta Airport before moving here. It did get noisy but you got used to it. Was not on flight path though. We were also about 2 blocks from hospital so had sirens going too. Didn't notice them unless there were a lot of them at once. There was also a fire station across from hospital. In spite of the noise it was a wonderful neighborhood at that time. Not so much now.
