“excessive airplane noises…especially on cloudy days?”

“Dear PoPville,

I live in NW next to the T street park (17th and T NW).

Since January 1, 2023, I have heard many loud airplane noises in the neighborhood. This weekend was particularly bad. This week I heard airplanes at 5.09 am.

Am I the only one to hear this?

Yesterday was a clear day and no noises, so it seems that the
loud noises are especially on cloudy days.

I have filed a noise complaint with DCA Airport. Is there anything else to do?”
