A Wake Up Call From Luke AFB, AZ

[427TJ]

There's always some as$hole who insists on living next to the airport and then complaining about the noise. But you have to blame developers for this too. Developers love to build next to airports because the ground is usually flat and easy to build on and so houses get crammed right up against the airfield fence. The area around Luke has been under the developer's onslaught for years and if it weren't for the huge military retirement community nearby Luke would have been closed and paved-over long ago. It still may go as development pressure continues out there.

People like that want wars fought out of sight and out of mind. "Please fight the war for me but don't remind me or bother me about it." Yeah, well up yours you f-ing whiner. Better yet, sell me your house, I LOVE jet noise, especially from fighters. I'd love to fly an F-16 right on the deck in full afterburner over that crybaby's house, then pull I'd up and bang-out about 10 vertical rolls with my middle finger out. (Sorry, that fly-by story just got to me.)
